Getting warm and cozy 🔥

As we all know, autumn and Halloween are all about being warm and cozy at home. Set the scene, grab the snacks, and pick one of the best movies for this time of year. My absolute favorite activity in autumn is to binge-watch movies at home.

Below are some inspirational ideas to help you set the mood. Don’t forget to dim the lights, get your hot water bottles and blankets ready, and of course, grab the snacks—because who can watch a movie without a few treats? 🤣 Try matching your snacks to your movies, like chocolate frogs for Harry Potter. It’s fun to get creative! You could even organize a themed drinks party with friends for an extra festive touch.

Here are a few movie recommendations (I’m not a horror movie person, so no spooky ones from me, sorry! 😂):

  • Hocus Pocus

  • Harry Potter

  • Hotel Transylvania

  • Halloweentown

  • Haunted Mansion

  • The Nightmare Before Christmas

  • Casper

  • Twitches

  • Practical Magic

  • When Harry Met Sally

  • Twilight

  • Double, Double, Toil and Trouble

There are so many more you could get comfy with, but these are just a few of my absolute must-watches for this time of year!

Instagram giveaway 🎁

I told you all I have so much planned this year. I’m always looking for ways to thank you for all the support! 🫶🏻


The details for my Halloween giveaway are up on my Instagram, and you can enter until next Saturday (the 12th). 🤎🤎

Book of the week 📚

This week’s pick is the perfect blend of spooky, sweet, and spicy—a small-town romance with a ghost-hunting twist! Just released, this book is sure to be an exciting read to kick off the Halloween season now that we’re in October.

Available from Amazon for £8.09

3 things that are basically steals 💰

  • Today only: Rehab is offering 20% off their entire website, plus you’ll receive a free hair perfume (usually £38) with any purchase! But be quick—it ends tonight.

My post-weekly diary 🎉 

It’s weekly round-up time again! I swear the weeks are just flying by, and I need time to slow down a little. I have so much planned, but I feel like I can’t get anything done!

  • Wellesbourne Market: Had a look around at some of the deals on offer.

  • Stratford Garden Centre: One of the most amazing places to visit! There’s so much to see and do, and honestly, I could spend hours here 👀

  • Afternoon Tea at Huffkins, Stratford Upon Avon: Another spot I highly recommend visiting. The food is absolutely outstanding!

  • Brassic on Netflix: Just started watching this recently, and it’s hilarious! If you love British humour, I’d definitely suggest giving it a go.

  • Walking Pad: My new obsession! I’ve been waking up every day and going straight to my walking pad for a 2-mile walk. I love being able to walk at home and watch my favorite shows at the same time 🤎 (I have a discount code: GIRLWITHTHELONGHAIRHOME)

Thanks so much for reading to the end, it means a lot! 🙏
