I'm a magazine junkie, and I occasionally peruse Cosmo in waiting rooms, at home, in friends' apartments, etc. Their Cosmo quiz is definitely one of my favorite parts, and I actually love doing the quizzes in magazines in general. Maybe it's the Psych major in me that loves it, but it's just really fun and I love learning filling out surveys, quizzes, you name it. I couldn't pass out doing this quiz when I saw it at Rachel's blog. She's amazing, and you should check out her answers at her blog too. :) And check out Erin's blog since she created this fun quiz, and link up your answers to the quiz to share with everyone. Do it, I promise it's really fun!
Sweater weather is the best weather. I love that it's finally cold enough outside here in northern California to wear sweaters and hoodies. It's super chilly in the morning, but it warms up throughout the day to the perfect cozy temperature. I love fall so much that I needed to do this tag in addition to The Autumn Tag. This tag has been going around Youtube for a while now so I got the questions from there. Of course, I had to include the Sweater Weather song, right? :)
1. Favorite candle scent?
I love cinnamon or apple scents. More like the sweet kinds, not the spicy ones.
2. Coffee, tea, or hot chocolate?
I like all of them, but I think I've been into teas more often lately. My current favorite is Good Earth's Sweet & Spicy Tea. It's like fall in a cup. Yep, best description ever.
Available on Amazon, but the best deal is in Costco!
3. What's the best fall memory you have?
Apple Hill visits! The place simply epitomizes fall for me.
4. Which makeup trend do you prefer: dark lips or winged eyeliner?
Winged eyeliner! I prefer very plain nude lips since I'm more of a lip balm girl on the daily. I have the hardest time with winging out eyeliner, but when I get it right, it is amazing!
5. What do you want to be for Halloween?
Well, I wanted to be a cat burglar, but I ended up doing the baseball girl thing instead. Special mention goes to this awesome cat puns costumes list!
Happy first day of fall everyone! It rained today in my town so it added even more awesomeness in welcoming the first day of my favorite season. Fall is my favorite season because of the perfect crisp and cool weather, and it marks the beginning of the holiday season with Halloween, which is also one of my favorite holidays. I wasn't tagged by anyone, but I wanted to do these questions anyway. I saw this tag from Taylor's blog at The California College Student so check out her blog to see her answers as well!

For Autumn, what is your...
1. Favorite thing about it?
I already answered it in my intro above, but I don't mind gushing over it again. I love the cooler weather, the change in color of the leaves, any food item that is apple-related, the return of some of my favorite TV shows, and that cozy, comfy feeling!
2. Favorite drink?
I have not tried the deliciousness of PSL so I can't claim that as my favorite. I'm a hot cocoa and apple cider kind of girl, but I love my hot drinks (teas, white chocolate mochas, etc.) even more during the fall and winter in general.
3. Favorite scent/candle?
Love anything cinnamon!
4. Best lipstick?
I don't like to wear lipsticks, but I'm a lip balm junkie (no shame in that either). I love my Hurraw! balms all year!
5. Go to moisturizer?
I don't have a holy grail moisturizer, but I really enjoyed using the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream last winter. I got the 2 oz. size since I wasn't sure it would work for me, and I'm thankful that it did. I sometimes got this nasty dry spot near my eye area, and it did wonders moisturizing that area.

6. Go to colors for eyes?
I don't do much eye makeup, but I think brown and purple shades are beautiful in the fall.
7. Favorite music or band/singer to listen to?
Mumford and Sons and Jack Johnson are my favorites, but The Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack deserves some honorable mention as well, especially with the song below. In case you were wondering, I have been listening to the soundtrack while typing up this post. Yep, I'm obsessed.
8. Favorite outfit to wear?
I love wearing my sweaters, scarves, and moccasins everywhere. Comfort is a must, and fuzzy socks are also life necessities.
9. Autumn treat (i.e. a new scarf or bag you have your eye on)?
I recently splurged on my first Dogeared jewelry piece, and I'm obsessed with it! I will definitely be wearing it a lot this season (and pretty much the rest of my life too).
Isn't she a beauty?
10. Favorite place to be?
I love Apple Hill! I already talked a little bit about it in my first Sunday Social post, but here is the link to that if you don't know what I'm talking about.
Those are all the questions, and I'm tagging YOU if you're reading this far into the post. I hope all of you are loving fall like I know I will! :)
