NOVEMBER NON-BEAUTY FAVOURITES

So this may be a slightly late November non-beauty favourites, but I'm going to do it anyway because there's a few random bits that I have been loving recently! The first being the most amazing bag from Zara, I'm in love with this bag and am constantly wearing it everywhere! To be honest this was a bit of an expensive treat for me, I don't usually buy bags often and when I do they're definitely not £90 but I'm so glad I treated myself because it is completely worth it! It's real leather and such a sturdy bag, I know I'll be using this for a long time and it's just one of those bags that makes every outfit that slightly bit better and smarter. I'm considering doing a 'what's in my bag' post because I'm obsessed with it, but let me know if that's a post you would want to see?

I think I probably always have a candle in my non-beauty favourites, so why not continue this tradition with my new favourite candle this month from the oh so cheep and cheerful Primark. They have some great home bits and I can't not visit their home section when I'm there and of course I couldn't leave without picking up the cutest candle ever, it's the Frosted Marshmallow candle. This is such a 'me' candle, I love sweet scents like vanilla and marshmallow especially around this time of year and for £3 of course I was going to get one or a few dozen of them. I also managed to find the greatest thing ever....COPPER HANGERS! I have never been so happy and excited to buy hangers, they were so cheap compared to places like Tk Maxx and Home Sense, they're £2.50 for 5 I think. They look great on an open rail with some of my favourite pieces of clothing, and of course make a great Instagram photo, so if you see some grab them quick as of course almost everyone has them!

The next thing is a book I saw in Anthropologie, it's the Love x Style x Life book by Garance Dore. For those of you who don't know who Garance Dore is, she's a French photographer, illustrator and of course author and also has a lovely fashion blog not to mention some beautiful illustrated art prints that I have been wanting to get my hands on for a while! This is such a lovely book and so aesthetically pleasing, and thinking of Christmas would make such a nice gift, it has great photos and beautiful fashion illustrations with some brilliant advice on style, beauty, love and so on. The author herself is lovely and this is such a wonderful, easy read, I find myself picking this up often for either a quick read or some inspiration for an outfit and not to mention this makes a great photo and a nice addition to my shelf. If you haven't already had a look at her wonderful website you definitely need to - garancedore.com

My last favourite is a TV show from America and I managed to find it on Netflix, it's a The CW show The 100. I have been looking for another show to watch for a while after watching The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, Teen Wolf and Pretty Little Liars on repeat for at least 100 times, and that's from the beginning. I'm so glad I decided to watch it, it's so good, I managed to watch the whole two seasons in about 3 days which was great at the time but now means I have to wait until the 3rd season comes out to continue watching it which I don't think is until 2016! It's essentially about the human race and how they had to go into space to survive after the earth became uninhabitable because of radiation but now they're running out of air and they need to come back down to earth to survive. So they send what they consider criminals that are all under 18 and I mean clue in the title there's 100 of them and they have to survive on earth but they find out that there's other people/creatures living and surviving on earth too. It's all quite complicated to explain and of course there's a whole load of drama, romance, murder and so on but I can guarantee this is a great watch if you enjoyed The Vampire Diaries and other shows like that.
