autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place // playlist

-

autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place is a playlist consisting of all of the songs that represent the feelings of the fall season for me. There is so much music that encapsulates the beauty of this time of year so perfectly. As the days get shorter and the leaves start to change color, I wanted to curate a playlist around all of the songs that evoke a feeling of warmth and coziness of autumn. The title is based on a lyric from one of my favorite songs ever, "All Too Well" by Taylor Swift, more specifically the 10 minute version. I love that lyric so much, it is such a vividly beautiful depiction of the season. The entirety of her Red album has defined the autumnal season for me for the past decade, it's so perfect. So much of her music always reminds me of the fall - "cardigan", "Maroon" and "ivy" are more Taylor songs that I love for this season, but the list is truly endless. 

There is so much more music that captures the beauty and coziness of the season for me too. "Envy The Leaves" by Madison Beer, "Sweater Weather" by The Neighbourhood, "Halloween" by Phoebe Bridgers and "Heather" by Conan Gray are some more standout favorites. I also love Lana Del Rey's cover of "Season of the Witch" by Donovan too, it's always an essential for this time of the year. 

The final song on the playlist is "Sweet Disposition" by The Temper Tramp, which felt perfect to end this "All Too Well" inspired autumnal playlist on as it served as an inspiration for Taylor Swift during the creation of her Red album. Taylor even references it in "All Too Well" with the lyric, "Oh your sweet disposition and my wide-eyed gaze, we're singing in the car getting lost upstate". 

Albums like Harry Styles' self-titled debut, Norman Fucking Rockwell! by Lana Del Rey, Pure Heroine by Lorde and The 1975's self-titled debut are records I always find myself returning to this time of the year. They evoke feelings of nostalgia for me and always capture the overall essence of autumn. I love fall so much and there is a ton of music that always reminds me of the season and all of my favorite things about it. There are so many more songs and albums that inspire me during the changing of the seasons, and I tried to incorporate as much of them as possible into this playlist!

I hope you enjoy listening as much as I have! 🍁🍂

ARIANA GRANDE GOD IS A WOMAN FRAGRANCE REVIEW

-
Image
When all is said and done, you'll believe God is a Woman!  I absolutely love all of the  fragrances   Ariana Grande  has released over the years, so when I found out that she was coming out with another I was so excited! Her song " God is a Woman " is also so iconic and one of my all-time favorites, so that made me look forward to it even more. I have been using it consistently for several months so I will able to give the most in-depth review I possibly can of this product. In the United States , God is a Woman  is sold exclusively at Ulta in three sizes; 1 oz for $45, 1.7 oz for $55, and 3.4 oz for $65. A travel size bottle is also available for $24. This pricing is consistent throughout the rest of Ariana's fragrances, so if you were looking to purchase another scent this is the range to expect. It is also available internationally at select retailers. God is a Woman  is cruelty free, 100% vegan and made with clean ingredients that are 91% naturally der...

SAFIYA NYGAARD x COLOURPOP COLLECTION REVIEW 🦇♥

-
Image
For my first post of  the new year, I wanted to share my thoughts on one of my favorite makeup releases, the Safiya Nygaard x Colourpop collection ! Safiya is one of my favorite YouTubers and Colourpop is my favorite makeup brand, so this is a really exciting collaboration!  Safiya consistently makes a variety of really high quality and interesting videos that mainly focus on beauty and fashion. I admire how much time and research she puts into what she does, all of the work that is put into these videos really shows in the finished product. If you haven't watched her channel before, I really can't recommend it enough!  In August 2017, she started a series called " bad makeup science ", which is the basis of this new Colourpop lipstick collection. There are 6 lipstick shades that correlate with a shade she created in one of her videos. You can check out the playlist of videos that inspired her collection here . I recently re-watched the whole series again...

My Thoughts on the Gigi Hadid x Maybelline Collection

-
Image
credit :  twitter.com/gigihadid Gigi Hadid has been the face of Maybelline for about 2 years and has been apart of several campaigns for the brand. I was really excited when I initially heard that Gigi and Maybelline collaborated on a full collection. I assumed that I would be able to recreate Gigi's makeup looks for less, but that just isn't the case. Today, I'm going to be giving my opinions on this collection to help you further determine if you should spend your money on it. The biggest gripe I have with this collection is that it is far too overpriced for Maybelline products. I have been noticing that some drugstore brands have been increasing the price of their new products, but I don't understand why since many times the brands aren't doing anything different to justify the large increase in the price. Maybelline does make some of my favorite products, especially when it comes to concealer and mascara, but they have also made really poor quality ...

Maybelline Fit Me Dewy & Smooth: Review

-
Image
⋆I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes. As always, all opinions are my own.⋆ I have no prior experience trying either primer or foundation, so I really have nothing to compare these products to. In my makeup routine I only ever used concealer, which I mentioned in my previous review of the Colourpop No Filter Concealer . I was very excited to receive the Maybelline Master Prime Hydrate + Smooth Primer, as well as the Maybelline Fit Me Dewy + Smooth Foundation courtesy of Influenster !  Master Prime Hydrate + Smooth Primer As I previously mentioned, I have never tried any primers at all, because I always just had the feeling that it was gimmicky and doesn't really do anything to prolong your makeup.  I have tested this primer out several times and I don't really think it does anything for my skin besides add an unnecessary extra layer of product. I have not experienced this clogging my pores, giving...

HIT ME HARD AND SOFT (isolated vocals) by Billie Eilish // 2024 Record Store Day Exclusive Vinyl

-
Image
Happy Record Store Day! One of my most anticipated releases for the Black Friday drop this year was a special version of Billie Eilish 's incredible album HIT ME HARD AND SOFT , which features only her isolated vocals. You can only slightly hear parts of the instrumentals in the background because she recorded the songs without headphones, but this variant of the album puts a major emphasis on only her gorgeous vocals. It's a really cool concept, it almost sounds like you're in the studio with her hearing it recorded live.  There is so much depth to her vocal comps with all of the hidden vocals and ad libs that are hidden underneath the production. There are so many small details that otherwise get buried in each song that now get the chance to fully shine. Billie and Finneas ' creative process is so fascinating, and this record give a glimpse into the way all of these songs came together. An album like HIT ME HARD AND SOFT  is meticulously produced and every layer is s...
