Now I love Autumn, it is one of my favourite seasons, leaving work to go home just as dusk begins, earlier closing of the curtains and more of an excuse to light candles and be snug. One thing I do love is looking for chunky knits, leggings and boots with the latter being one of my favourite items to buy. Autumn footwear is so much better than Summer, no manky toes on show for one, and I have so many pairs of shoes and boots that I want to buy.

The Best Of New Beauty At Boots
Nude by Nature - This is a brand I have only ever seen in Debenhams and not always easy to get too to try. So now we have it in Boots and again, as with Becca and Too Faced, it is quite an extensive collection of products. As a brand, Nude by Nature is a make-up range 100% naturally derived, cruelty-free and with no synthetic ingredients. I have been wanting to try quite a few products from nude by nature especially the Radiant Loose Powder Complexion and I also love the sound of the Complexion Essentials Starter Kit which looks like a great introduction to the brand too.
BYBI - BYBI stands for By Beauty Insiders and I have featured them here on this blog a few times now (here and here) and I love the brand. There has been quite a few new launches of late and I am really chuffed to see them on the Boots website and I have my eye on the Buriti Booster and the MegaMist.
Tony Moly - Naturally as someone who absolutely loves K-Beauty, to see Tony Moly somewhere other than in TKMaxx and Amazon is quite the treat. Tony Moly was one of the very first K-Beauty brands I used and if you love facemasks which are a little bit kooky, then that box is well and truly ticked with Tony Moly. I now have my eye on the Chok Chok Green Tea range which sounds just incredible.
Skyn Iceland - A brand which harnesses mineral-rich Icelandic glacial water alongside Arctic superfruits as well as pure, encapsulated oxygen to create ultimate solutions for stressed-out skin. I am a big fan of the Hydra Cool Firming Eye Gels and am looking forward to getting my hands on a few more products from the range.
Too Cool For School - This is a brand I have seen but haven't tried and again it sits firmly within the K-Beauty section. If you want something that sounds as equally wonderful as it does weird then the Egg Mousse Collection is definitely something you be on the lookout for!
Tan Luxe - If you a fan of fake tan then Boots will now be offering you Tan Luxe, a collection of products that are said to have been formulated without heavy pigments, no smell and perhaps most importantly no streaks.
Finally, we have Balance Me. As a brand, Balance Me is one I have written about on this blog quite a few times and whilst I have my eye on the Congested Skin Sheet Masks, as a brand, I am so glad to see some of my favourite products are now on sale in Boots.
I am really looking forward to seeing these brands in store as well as online* and I am definitely going to be on the lookout for new counters and stand-alone shelves so I can browse at my leisure and finally think about spending some of those well-earned points.

SKECHERS Adorbs
Made of faux suede and in an unusual grey colour, the faux fur lining is incredibly snug and the hiding underneath that cuff is woven, a grey pattern which is almost geometric in design which you can just about see under the faux fur, as these are ankle boots there isn't the option to roll the fur up to have calf length boots, but it does add a nice little extra design to the boots.
For those like me with flat feet, a bit of comfort is a must when it comes to shoes and boots. As much as I would love to wear Louboutins and Jimmy Choo, I like my flat boots and shoes, walking like a hippo on rollerskates is not attractive. So inside the boots is a memory foam cushioned sole and it is so comfortable, I never want to take them off.
At just £62, these boots cost less than half that of other brands (from which I have owned boots from) and these are such fantastic value for money. The heel doesn't sag in the rain, my feet are kept warm the entire time I wear them, so there is no need to buy extra thick socks. They are comfortable, they look great with jeans, leggings or skirts with tights and perfect for this horrible cold weather.

Emu Australia Boots Charlotte Black
Shoetique have an amazing range of boots to choose from and I finally managed to settle on the most amazing boots from Emu, infact I have wanted them for ages and ages but have never bought them. Let me introduce you to the Emu Australia Boots Charlotte** which I opted for in Black, the other colour option is Chocolate.
I can't even begin to tell you how amazing these boots are they are just fantastic, so snug and warm and perfect for this weather.
As calf length boots, they can be styled with everything and best of all they are totally waterproof! So they can be worn under and over your jeans, leggings, with a dress, with a skirt and they just look so good.
These boots feature a black suede upper which is built with a waterproof membrane and sealed seems which ensure no water gets in. The really thick sheepskin linings provide a lot of warmth and make them extremely comfortable to wear, almost like walking on springs they are so soft and bouncy. The sheepskin is also said to naturally remove moisture which in turn keeps your feet and your boots smelling fresh. The sole of the boot is texturised rubber which gives it a good old grip on those frosty slippery surfaces and is completely flat.
These boots are easy to pull on and off and have the Emu logo on back of heel and button straps for added detail and I absolutely love them. They have been perfect for this freezing cold weather and my feet have been as snug as a bug.
If you are looking for a new pair of boots, then get yourself over to Shoetique because they have an amazing sale on right now!
