I’ve always celebrated Halloween, dressing up as a witch when I was a little girl, to thinking more outside the box the older I got. Halloween party’s were super high on my priority list, although it’s now been years since I’ve been to a good fancy dress party – okay that nostalgia has just hit hard! Throw back to Halloween 2013 where I dressed up as a doll!Well whilst there may not have been a good Halloween fancy dress party in years, I still like to embrace all hallows Eve. A selection of horror movies (old and new) and a couple of fright night events, and you’ve got yourself one happy and content girl.

This year I dedicated an entire weekend to spooky shenanigans, because why not right?! Why not go all out and do a whole weekend of spooky things, and have a frightfully good time?

It all kicked off Friday night when it was off to the cinema to watch the original Nightmare on elm street. Super old, super cheesy, and not the slightest bit scary. But it’s an absolute classic in the horror genre and watching it on the big screen was far better than watching it on tv. Yes it was very laughable but honestly I enjoyed it, Luke maybe not so much!! But sometimes Halloween is all about keeping it classic. I decided to wear one of my favourite sweaters for my cinema date night and kept it super casual with a messy bun and a good old pair of jeans.

Saturday night Luke and I headed off to Colchester zoo for their trail of terror. It’s a fright night I have done before back in 2022, and whilst it isn’t scary at all it’s just plan fun and very well organised. I mean I say it isn’t scary, but I am that girl who really doesn’t scare easily so whilst I did hear lots of screaming and saw quite a few people running form different scare zones I just throughly enjoyed the whole experience. And especially loved how all the staff of Colchester zoo really got into there characters.

It’s always difficult to know what to wear on the fright night events especially with this October being so annoyingly mild! Fright nights always work best when it’s cold outside. But nevertheless I planned my outfit accordingly, deciding on jeans, sturdy boots, autumnal jumper (it’s a must right) and a gilet. I also decided on wearing my hair down and adding a hat to finish the outfit off. Okay I did loose the hat and tied my hair up. The hair down and hat combo was definitely giving me more Christmas hallmark channel vibes than fright night vibes.

Sunday night I finished off my spooky weekend by heading off with Luke to the kelvedon hatch secret bunker for there fright night “The bunker below” Again it’s a fright night I have done before and have throughly enjoyed it so was quite excited to be heading to go it again. To be perfectly honest fright nights are a little difficult for me purely because I just don’t scare easily. I mean I’m a girl who puts on a horror movie as background noise, I think I’ve seen so many horror films and done so many fright nights in the past that I’m immune to the jump scares! The bunker below although pretty creepy and jumpy back in 2022, this year unfortunately failed to make me jump at all. I think that was purely down to the group that Luke and I was paired with. They just kind of spoilt it with constant talking and swearing and not committing to the task in hand. Very very frustrating, when you’ve paid money to have some spooky fun. However it won’t put me off of returning next year, and after speaking with one of the organisers from the event, I am pretty confident that next year will be a total blast.

And yes I wore another autumnal sweater, another favourite of mine.

And that’s a wrap on my perfectly spooky weekend, spent with my favourite person.

The post The Halloween weekend appeared first on Lifestyle Lisa.

As we enter a new season there are things that just make sense – like the smell of bonfire smoke in the air or freshly brewed coffee with pumpkin spice syrup. The things that just scream that autumn has arrived. And with its arrival I can’t think of anything more enjoyable than to embrace all those cosy comforts. My autumn essentials list is full of the things that I am loving this season. From the hot autumnal drinks, autumn fashion, date days, to skincare. This really is a great time for some self love.

1. Autumn wardrobe – I think autumn is one of the most fun times of years for outfits – jeans, boots, cosy knit jumpers, blazer, gilets, hats & scarves. And yes I’m here for all of it. I love dressing for this cute season, lots of layers, and some loose curls in your hair for that Hallmark movie look.
2. Halloween films – Who doesn’t love a good film night during the autumn months? Cosy blankets, popcorn, scented candles and good classics like Halloween are just a must during the autumn season. And after all isn’t the month of October the spooky season?!
3. Autumn baking – The autumnal season brings out the baker in me, and truth be told I am definitely not the baker in the Kendal household. I leave that to Luke my husband. But there’s just something so “hallmark channel” about putting on my apron and getting all Mary Berry in the kitchen, with some autumn inspired recipes. And whilst mine don’t quite always turn out edible. It’s the trying that counts, at least that’s what I tell myself.
4. Self care – Getting home from work, having a nice healthy dinner followed by a long hot shower. Before settling down with a cup of Jasmine tea or one of my favourite tea lattes and a good book. Oh and let’s not forget snuggling under a blanket with some scented candles burning, this is the self care routine I just cannot get enough of. I love shutting the blinds and the world away and cosy on down without a single care. Tea lattes are actually an essential for me anytime of the year, but they hit a whole lot different during the autumn months. Check out Teapsy for the cutest range of latte powders.
5. Cute date days – Going on a cute autumn date with Luke is genuinely one of the most perfect things I can think of doing during the months of October & November. There’s so much going on this time of year, from pumpkin picking to frightnights, even and chilly walk along an empty beach with a cup of hot chocolate warming up your hands. The autumn season has lots to offer when it comes to date ideas. The only thing I struggle with is trying to fit it all in! My go too pumpkin patch by the way is Otto’s Pumpkin Patch I have been visiting for 3 years, it’s just down the road from me and is genuinely my favourite patch I have been too. So if you are in Essex check out Otto’s.
   • Fully embracing the cute autumn months is something I am definitely here for, it’s such a laid back time of year, the quiet before the busy Christmas period hits. It’s nice to get outside and be at one with nature, and the photo opportunity’s during October and November are amazing. So whatever you decide to get up too, don’t forget to just enjoy the most pumpkiny season of all.

Because I am a girl who fully loves to embrace autumn in every way possible. Whether it’s wearing cute autumn sweaters, over indulging on pumpkin spice absolutely everything, or visiting as many pumpkin patches as possible. It’s only fitting that my home matches my autumn vibe! 

Decorating my house for my favourite season is something I’ve been doing now since 2022. I definitely take all my inspiration from the beautifully decorated houses I see all over my socials in pretty American towns. I’m pretty obsessed with all the American decor, so trying to recreate my own version (on a smaller scale) was something I couldn’t wait to try when I became a home owner.

Collecting pumpkins, candles and all autumnal decor is something I actually enjoy doing even more than buying Christmas decor (although that comes in at a close second) And honestly, I think I have a pretty good collection now.

This year I picked the first weekend in September to do both my interior and exterior decor – and yes, I know it’s not “officially autumn just yet” but in my calendar autumn starts at the beginning of September and that’s that. I changed up the outside of the house a few weeks back thanks to my husband Luke who built me my very own wooden porch! And yeas I really did want it with the sole purpose of wrapping garlands around it! It looks super cute and I equally can’t wait to decorate it for Christmas!!!

Getting to work transforming my home into a pretty autumnal haven on a seriously unseasonably hot September Sunday. When I might add I was full of cold (absolutely attractive) It took a good couple of hours to get everything out and placed where I wanted it, and of course there was a lot of moving things around and rearranging them to make sure everything looked as perfect as I wanted.

For now I am pretty happy with my efforts but there’s always room for improvement, but for now I’m pleased with the finished look.

Oh and incase you’re wondering my house honestly smells as amazing as I think it looks!? It’s like autumnal heaven and I am so so here for it.

On a side note – does anyone have any idea where I can get the best pumpkin spice anything and everything from? I usually stock up when I’m in Florida but I have no Florida trip booked this year (which makes me so sad) So please let me know if you’ve spotted any pumpkin spice treats on your uk journey.

Thanks for stopping by and reading my blog today – if you didn’t know I am also on YouTube, so if you haven’t done so already then please check out my channel, and my 2 latest vlogs dedicated to all things autumn.

To be honest I am not a huge fan of birthdays (anyone who knows me will know that) I mean celebrating getting older? No thank you! However I do realise that getting older is something that some people never get the chance to celebrate, and in that sense I know how incredibly lucky I am to experience life and I am very grateful for that. But on a small selfish personal note – I’m just not a fan of climbing the age ladder.

Celebrating my birthday isn’t all bad though – I mean presents right? And no one loves presents more than me!! And this “Lisa Day” was just full of the nicest gifts, and I felt well and truly spoilt. And it was lovely to spend an evening chilling with my family, before Luke took me off to London on the Saturday (separate blog post pending)

So let’s get down to it, another 365 days around the sun, and what a year it’s been. Since last years birthday I have continued my love of travelling and visited Florida (again) and ticked off of my travel list Iceland, Australia & Shannon Ireland. I’m hoping to visit a few more places before the end of the year (fingers crossed)

Although another year older I’m certainly none the wiser and still manage to walk through life making the same mistakes I promised myself I wouldn’t. And although the mistakes aren’t huge, they are the little things that really annoy me, like letting irrelevant people get under my skin with their irritating ways, sometimes it’s just people’s whole demeanour that I just cannot comprehend. Instead of blocking it out, I let it annoy me, sometimes ignorance is bliss right?

In 365 days I have been on a roller coaster journey with my weight, I hate the way I almost disrespect my own body, but you just can’t help what you feel. I’m just within the last few weeks starting to gain some confidence which I am enjoying, it’s a breath of fresh air to be honest to be able to give myself a break and not be so hard on myself.

Since last years birthday I’ve watched my small business gradually start to grow which I am forever thankful for. It’s tough at times, it’s hard work, but the hard work is starting to pay off. And I’m lucky to have an amazing support system made up of my husband, my mum and my dad – I’d be absolutely lost without them, and the support they give me and my small business, is something I will always be thankful for.

In 365 days I’ve laughed, loved and lived, I’ve made memories, I’ve been on adventures, I’ve slept in late on weekends, I’ve been on long dog walks, I’ve climbed the story bridge in Brisbane, I experienced the worst jet lag ever flying to and from Australia. I got delayed by 3 hours at Shannon airport because of storms, I’ve whale watched in Iceland. I’ve been blessed with some amazing 5* reviews on my Etsy shop, but equally I got a 2*, I’ve had Etsy parcels not arrive to customers. I did 2 new beauty courses and gained 2 new qualifications, I’ve cried at silly things and been super hormonal. I passed my final grade at skate school, I’ve started vlogging more, Hunter’s tested my patience to the max, I’ve not been sure in what direction I’m meant to be heading in. And you know what? All that is fine, its absolutely okay to take the rough with the smooth, to take every day as it comes and to realise that no matter what the situation it’s all part of learning and growing, and finally I think I’m okay with that.

So here’s a cheers to my 365 days around the sun, it’s been a journey and in reflection I’ve loved it, now to start another 365 days.

The post 365 Days around the sun appeared first on Lifestyle Lisa.

But first it’s time to enjoy the sunshine and everything that August has to offer. Firstly I love this month for the simple fact that – schools are out. And I know that’s weird seeing as a) I’m not a teacher & b) I don’t have children, but as soon as the summer holidays hit the roads are noticeably quieter making my working journey far better but especially Lukes journey who travels to and from London 4 days a week. With far less traffic on the road both of our journeys to and from work are a breeze and Luke gets home far earlier, which I love.

August also for me well and truly represents summer, it is THE summer month, and come rain or shine I wear summer clothes. I love the feeling of the warm sun on my skin, and the need for minimal if not any make up (SPF always of course) I love alfresco dining and sitting outside watching the sun go down. Watching the bee’s do their thing and the butterflies dancing around in the sky. Summer really is a pretty vibe, and even though I’m an autumn girl (please give me a pumpkin someone) I can’t help but to be excited that August is here and summer has finally arrived.

I have a long list of many things I love and enjoy anytime of the year. But you know when you have things that are just so relatable to summer months more than any other season? Well that’s the list I call “Things I love – but especially in Summer” and naturally I’m going to share that list with you.

1) Cream cheese and cucumber sandwiches – sometimes I will substitute this for a bagel. But for the most part it has to be a sandwich without crusts, and I like crusts, but it just makes the sandwich so much more elegant and dainty. Actually my mum used to make me cucumber and cream cheese sandwiches when I was little. We used to call them dolly sandwiches as she would use a cookie cutter to cut them into pretty shapes like hearts and flowers. I miss those dolly sandwiches now.

2) Mr whippy ice creams with sprinkles and a flake in a waffle cone – This is the treat that just hits the spot! And it’s one of my favourite little treats to enjoy whilst waking along the beach on a summers evening.

3) Hummus and veggie sticks – This is a go to for anytime of the year, but just hits so differently during the summer months. Add in some pitta bread and it’s an absolute winner.

4) Iced Jasmine green tea – During the winter months I like hot Jasmine tea but during the summer months letting it cool right down and serving over ice is just the most refreshing drink!

5) Playing country songs loud – I have always been a fan of country tunes, but during the summer months they hit on a whole new level. Driving to new destinations with Luke with some country music playing loud reminds me of being in Florida, and they are happy memories.

6) Wearing cute cute playsuit and summer dresses – Okay technically this is only something I do in summer and on holidays. But I just adore playsuits, they are just the easiest summer essential in my opinion. And is there anything better than a pretty little summer dress teamed with a pair of cute flats. Ahhh summer bliss.

7) Wearing light pretty floral scented perfumes – You all know that I am huge fan of perfumes and tend to stick to heavier oud fragrances during the autumn winter months but when summer hits I love wearing light pretty floral fragrances. I don’t think you can beat a floral perfume during the warm summer season.

8) Summer picnics – Surely this one has to be on a lot of lists? I mean come on what’s better than packing up a picnic hamper with all of your favourite treats and snacks and heading out into the summer sunshine for a picnic?

9) Outdoor cinema’s – Last year Luke took me to an outdoor cinema to watch Top Gun Maverick, and it was such a vibe! We combined that with packing up a picnic, took some chairs and blankets and cosied up under the stars to enjoy a good movie. Perfect right?

Even as an autumn loving girl I don’t intend to wish away any of the final summer month before the season once again begins to change. But how lucky are we to live in a world where we have seasons and all the change that it brings, that makes me me feel very blessed.

I feel like a broken record when I say this, but this year is just flying by, I mean here we are the first day of July, before too long the shops will be stocked with all things spooky and autumnal (just me doing a little happy dance about this)

But enough with autumn for now because right at this very moment the warm weather is all I really care about. It’s been amazing to finally put away the coats, jackets, trousers and long sleeve tops and start wearing what I like to call “cute” clothes –

*summer dresses,

*skirts,

*playsuits (my favourite)

*cool summer jumpsuits.

It’s the nicest feeling when the sun hits your skin, after months of covering up in heavy winter wear.

Summer is also a chance to switch up my perfumes and swap the heavier oud scents in favour of light floral scents – my favourites this year are –

*Ralph Lauren Romance

*Dolce & Gabbana Dole Rose

*Christian Dior Dioriviera

*Prada Infusion De Rose

*Dior Miss Dior Rose “n Roses

*Bvlgari Splendida Rose

*Chloe Love Story

*Valentino Donna

*Viktor & Rolf Flower Bomb

*Jo Malone Peony & Blush Suede

I just love adding new perfumes to my ever growing collection. Although I do struggle choosing a perfume each day. I like to choose one that compliments my mood, outfit, hair and makeup.

Summer of course also brings those warm balmy evenings and light nights which are perfect for a spot of alfresco dining after a long day at work. I am honestly all about the hummus and crunchy vegetables at the moment, paired with a glass of iced jasmine green tea. Honestly it’s the perfect pairing.

The morning dog walks look so pretty with lush greenery and beautiful wild flowers, and it’s nice to take Hunter out and not freeze like I have done for the first part of the year. Although the minor annoyance is of course not being able to take Hunter out on his afternoon dog walk due to the heat. And he likes to let me know just how unhappy he is about that, by getting super vocal and having an argument with me.

Not walking Hunter in the afternoon doesn’t stop me from getting out and getting some fresh air. I have to step away from desk my get outside and just breath! Take a little walk smell some flowers (seriously I do that!) then I return to work with a clearer head. Also not having Hunter at lunch time means I can snap some photos of the beautiful countryside.

I’m kind of excited to see what July brings, I’m hoping for lots of warm weather and an all round good month.

Thanks for reading & Happy Monday

The post For the love of long hot summer days appeared first on Lifestyle Lisa.

It’s strange because I am actually a summer baby with a birthday in August, and honestly I don’t have anything against summer (unlike spring) but I do get a little excited when August hits and the countdown to autumn begins. And as soon as we hit the beginning of September all of my autumn decorations come out in “fall” force! What can I say? I just can’t help myself.

There really isn’t anything I don’t enjoy in the ber months, long country walks take on a whole new feel with the crunchy leaves on the ground. Dressing for any occasion is far more simple, and hello – Starbucks bless us once again with PSL’s!!!!

Of course I love to watch every single horror movie that’s ever been made, whilst enjoying a candy apple (although it has to be a good candy apple, luckily Luke makes amazing ones)

Date days take on a whole new meaning in autumn, whether it’s pumpkin picking and carving, hikes, scenic walks with amazing photo opportunities or baking together at home, it’s just the absolute cosy vibes that I simply adore.

Of course I do have to keep reminding myself that’s it’s only June and there are still 82 days until the Ber months arrive. And I’m okay with that, my legs could do with seeing some daylight before they hibernate for the winter, my skin is in some serious need of vitamin D, and even I can admit that lazy long summer weekends are pretty cute, and I guess we could all do with some hot sun.

Still the inner autumn girl in me will be screaming to break feee and feel the chill of the morning on her cheeks.

And so starts another week, another long week, another long and tiring week. Just thinking about it is making me feel tired!

But enough with the moaning because this is the start of a new week, and with the start of every new week comes new goals.

So seeing as I’ve been absent from the blog for about 4 weeks I think I need to do a little recap!

Firstly April has been. Seriously chilly, it’s felt more like late September, October at times, but to be honest I’m here for it. I make no secret of the fact that spring isn’t my thing and that I am quietly sitting here waiting for autumn to arrive. So I was more than happy to have some chilly weather, I am no way ready to start wearing dresses and skirts, and letting my legs see the actual light of day (no way!)

April was also a really busy month for me, kick starting off with of course the long Easter weekend, which the build up is always more exciting than the actual weekend which goes way too fast. Luke and I did however manage to be fit quite a bit into those precious 4 days. There was a dog walking field for Hunter, Luke and I went on a gin distillery tour, and we also took 2 trips to the seaside on the Saturday and Sunday. We didn’t spend too long there as we needed to get back for Hunter, but it was nice to get out for a few hours, enjoy an ice cream and have a game of crazy golf. I did of course save Monday for a really long lay in and day of complete chill!

April has also seen the celebration of birthdays! Luke my mum and Luke’s dad all celebrate in the month of April, making it a busy and slightly expensive month! I’m always stuck for ideas of what I can do with Luke for his birthday because as well as gifts I like to plan a day of doing something. We usually head to London seeing as it’s only a short 45 minutes away, and in the past we have seen Westend shows, dined in the dark, done escape rooms and even headed away to climb Snowdon and Scarfell Pike. This year I found an experience called Phantom Peak which is a fully immersive, open world experience – a living, breathing town where mystery lurks around every corner. It’s part escape room, part immersive theatre and part real-life videogame. I had no idea what what to expect, but it was the one idea I kept coming back too so knew I had to book tickets and check it out. Tickets cost £45 each, and the while experience took around 4 hours. The end result was a throughly enjoyable experience, 4 hours of lots of laughing, a couple of cocktails, and good old investigation. We then finished off our London day out with dinner at burger & lobster – because of you didn’t know by now, this girl just loves a lobster roll!

Continuing the birthday celebrations we headed back to London the week after to celebrate Luke’s dad birthday. Thinking outside the box once again I found a fab immersive experience called The ‘Horizon of Khufu’ which is an Immersive Expedition that has been designed to be as accurate as possible. In collaboration with Peter Der Manuelian, Professor of Egyptology, and his team from the Giza Project at Harvard University, the goal is to offer an experience based on real data, combining architecture, science, and history, for an authentic immersion. We to a journey that transported us through time to uncover the mysteries of the Great Pyramid of Giza in virtual reality and experience the funeral rites of an Egyptian King. It was a really good 45 minute activity, and I highly recommend it. We finished off the day with dinner at The big easy because – I found a lobster roll on the menu, so of course I was all over that!!

Wrapping up April’s antics, we spent the last weekend in April celebrating our nieces 8th birthday with a small family get together. Followed by a chilled out Saturday evening with a movie.

I am now in full countdown mode to the long bank holiday weekend, and I can’t wait! Haven’t got any plans as if yet, but I’m sure I’ll fill my time wisely.

The post The April Recap appeared first on Lifestyle Lisa.

I had an absolutely wonderful, memorable and amazing time in Australia and I can’t wait to share my travels with you right here on lifestylelisa. Adding to the list of content I need to write up, I’ve definitely added a lot of work onto the pile (will get it done asap – have to tell myself this at least 3 times a day or it will sit in drafts for the next year!)

I did have very good intentions to get the Australia travel blog posts written up over the weekend, but jet lag has really hit hard and this entire weekend has pretty much been a write off. Headache, hot & cold, ear ache, tiredness and low energy have made me want to do very very little this weekend. Luckily I have a truly amazing husband who has been looking after me, whilst jet lag does its thing. And yes even though Luke & I both had jet lag I went straight back to work the day after landing where as Luke hasn’t yet gone back (he goes today) so I feel like his body clock was able to adjust more naturally than mine.

So whilst I did have the best intentions to get things done this weekend I instead sat snuggled under a blanket with mugs of tea and movies. And I’m okay with that, after doing to much travelling to get home (over 41 hours) my body needed to reset, I needed to reset and I needed time to relax and recharge after a very full on (but wouldn’t have it any other way) holiday

Hopefully I’ll start to feel more like me over the next coming days, and I’ll find the time to sit down and start my Australia travel journal to share with you all.

Have a great week, and I’ll be back with a new post next Monday

The post The Jet Lag is real appeared first on Lifestyle Lisa.

Hello, well as if the fab weekend wasn’t over so quickly! And also is it seriously STILL January?- this month is going on forever! Although I’m sure that when we get into February I’ll be moaning that month is going way too fast, forever the indisicive girl.

So another week has been and gone, and that week was long! But in between the storms, the power cuts and the nearly falling asleep at my desk during the working week, I somehow survived all of it! Winning at life right now.

So as we have established the week was long, and just so draining. And main reason behind that was Hunter. I have always prided lifestylelisa as being as honest as possible when it comes to what I write and share in my posts. So taking the rough and tough with the smooth the reason why last week was so difficult and draining is because Hunter my lively 4 year old Hungarian Vizsla is going through an awkward phase, and trying to get to the root of the issue is proving a problem. Hunter is lively and friendly and so so affectionate and I absolutely love him for it. But his behaviour over the last year and especially over the last few months has made me question whether Luke and I are really the right owners for him, and maybe that somehow we had failed him. It’s been an emotional roller coaster feeling torn between absolutely loving Hunter and wanting what’s best for him. Of course I always knew that re-homing him was never ever really on cards even if I did wonder if it might be best for him. I mean honestly no one on earth loves my dog as much as Luke and I, Hunter is our entire world. But behaviour wise we have been having issues that are getting harder and harder to ignore. So on Sunday we took the plunge and had a lovely dog behavioural expert come round and asses Hunter and more importantly us to see where it’s gone/going wrong and what we can do to rectify the situation before it gets too out of control. So the meeting took place on (Sunday) at our house and it was informative and thorough, and although we have a long way to go, Luke & I have a number of things to work on and I am feeling very positive that by the summer we could potentially have really turned things around (here’s hoping)

The behavioural expert confirmed something that I really had wondered lately and that was just how much Hunter loves us. And deep down of course I knew that, but hearing it from someone with so much knowledge, hearing her say that he loves us so much, and in return we have over loved him (which is why he’s a little messed up) did actually mean the world to me. She also confirmed that he is the sweetest boy, and is so willing and ready to learn, and honestly I couldn’t be more thankful that we contacted her, and I couldn’t love my fury ginger little bear anymore than I do.

So whilst last week may have been a bit up an down I am hoping that this week will be so much better.

This will now be my last blog post until the middle of February as I am off on a brand new journey with my husband and will be making more amazing memories. Of course I am already getting tearful about missing Hunter but once again mum and dad to the rescue as they will be looking after him and the house whilst we are gone. And I know Hunter will be well loved and looked after, and although I will be enjoying my holiday I will also be looking forward to that big hug and wet kick from Hunter when I return.
