All made up for autumn


Glorious are the woods in their latest gold and crimson,
Yet our full-leaved willows are in their freshest green.
Such a kindly autumn, so mercifully dealing
With the growths of summer, I never yet have seen. 
- William Cullen Bryant 

There is no better day than a chilly sunny autumn day with clear blue sky and colorful trees. I keep imagining getting married on a day like that. 

A big reason why I prefer autumn is because of the style: I love wearing thick tights and knitted sweaters! And the colours are just amazing; burgundy and beige, dark petrol blue and the incredibly underestimated mustard. Of course you can wear that whenever you want, but it just fits so much better when the leaves start to go orange. 

This makeup was inspired by Pixiwoo's Fall Trend: Autumn Eyes Makeup Tutorial, that I stumbled upon today. I don't have the right colours, but I tried something like it. I hardly ever use this much makeup. Not like I need it ;) 

Here's a list of the products I use. I really do have a lot of makeup.
