Happy Halloweeennn!! Can you believe it's Halloween?! Where has October gone?! Tonight I will be at home watch some scary movies- even though I'm not a massive fan of scary movies, but you've got to on Halloween! And I wanted to share with you the ones I’m considering watching- in case you aren’t dong much on Halloween but still want to be in the spooOooky mood. 1. Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.This is a new Netflix tv show and I have actually just finished Part One, but I want to share this show with you. It's so addictive because it's so good but I wish I hadn't watched it that quickly. It is about a teenage girl, Sabrina, who is half-moral half-witch and has to choose between the two worlds. It goes a lot deeper though into both worlds and how they collide. It is very spooky, and there are bits of horror but it’s a good watch! Also there are subtle hints to Riverdale which is exciting because there might be a little crossover! This tv show is perfect for Halloween as it has demons, witches, spells, sinister atmosphere, and a few jump scares. I'm already excited for Part Two. 2. Halloween.I only recently watched this film and I thought it was great! Im talking about the 1978 version by the way. It isn’t as full on with jump scares and terrifying scenes like in 21st century horror movies, which is great if you aren’t big fan of them like me. I found it quite comical too- not everything in the movie is as scary now as what it would have been in 1978. The storyline is great and I do want to see the 2018 sequel to see how it links with the older movie. Anyway this film is definitely a must watch on Halloween: the clue is in the title!! 3. Haunting of Hill House.Another new Netflix show that I've been loving recently. Yes, it gives me the creeps and there are quite a few jump scares and horrific scenes but it is so gripping! The storyline is based around a house and the haunting effects it has on a family. It is set in the present but has several flashbacks to when the family were living there and explains all the hauntings and how it has effected the children in their adult lives. as well as it giving me shivers, you get very emotional attached to the family and feel a sense of sadness towards what has happened to them. I am only a few episodes in and I cannot wait to delve deeper into the show. It's perfect for Halloween- make sure you give it a watch if you haven't already. 4. Nightmare Before Christmas.This is Halloween, this is Halloween... Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween...sorry I had to! It's perfect for today haha. If you are in the mood for a slightly less horrific and haunting show/movie to watch, then Nightmare Before Christmas is your answer. I watched this a lot as a kid and absolutely loved it and I still do. I love the characters and the songs, it reminds so much of my childhood. It's such a classic Disney film and perfect for Halloween and even Christmas- do you class this as a Halloween or Christmas film? 5. Beetlejuice.Another film which reminds of my childhood- yes I did watch this as a kid and yes it completely freaked me out. But now I'm a lot of older I have come to appreciate it more, from the humour, to the whole meaning behind the storyline. It's another classic and I absolutely love this film. Also, how I can not love the fact that one of the main characters is called Lydia too?!! In my eyes it will never get old, and again perfect for Halloween. I am even wearing a Beetlejuice jumper dress (the back of it is shown the picture above) as I am writing this, what's not to love about Beetlejuice?! 6. Hocus Pocus.Similar to Nightmare Before Christmas, Hocus Pocus is one that is suitable for all ages and is perfect if you aren't fond of horror movies. I can't say I remember watching this as a kid (shock horror, seeing as it's Disney!!), but nonetheless I love it so much. The humour is great and I love the whole feel of the movie. It's again a classic and I enjoy watching it every time! There you go! Only a few movies/shows mentioned here but I didn't want to overload on a massive list. These are my favourites and it is going to be hard to choose which ones to watch tonight!! Hope you all have a great Halloween, whether you are going trick or treating, partying or just staying at home watching movies. Lidia x Follow me on my Socials:

Have you ever been to a pumpkin patch? Well Sunday was my first time and it was pretty cute!! We arrived about 1pm so with it being a Sunday and the weekend nearest to Halloween as you can imagine it was very busy. There wasn’t a lot of pumpkins to choose from and the queue to buy the pumpkins was very long but it was a really nice experience. I did get some pictures but I would have liked to have taken more. There was so many people, I felt quite self conscious of people staring if my family took pictures of me. Recently I’ve gained a lot of confidence when being in front of the camera for once but yesterday I just wasn’t feeling it. The pictures I did get were cute however and I will share them with you! We also carved the pumpkin too which was a lot of fun. We bought a carving kit from the farm so we didn’t have to use a knife (safety first kids) and I loved deciding what design to carve too. It was super easy because there was also various stencil designs in the kit which was super handy. Here’s our finished pumpkin and some pictures from our little adventure on Sunday. I really hope next year we can visit a pumpkin patch as it has really put in the Halloween spirit! A note to self though...make sure you go to the farm early in the morning as it won’t be as busy and you get more a selection of pumpkins!! I’m so excited for tomorrow now! What will you be doing on Halloween? I will be watching Halloween movies with my family, the perfect evening in my opinion!! Look out for a blog tonight on a list of Halloween movies and tv shows you could watch on Halloweeeeennn! Lidia x Want to follow my social media?Happy Saturday everyone, hope you are all having a great weekend! If you follow my Disney Instagram (link at the end of this post) you will have seen that on Sunday I explored London with one of my best friends, Dani! We met through both having a disney Instagram but I can happily call her one of my closest friends. Internet friends are the best! Anyway we decided we wanted to have a day around London to explore, but to also take some pictures for our Instagram feeds- yes we are not ashamed that we are those girls haha. We went to several places: Westminster Abbey, London Eye, Notting Hill, Covent Garden and Victoria so I’m sure you’ll understand when we say our feet and legs hurt badly on Monday!! Nevertheless, I had the best time being surrounded by great company and a lot of pictures were taken! It was so lovely to spend a full day with Dani and not just going round Disney shops like we had done previously- even though that was really fun too! Also, it was lovely to wear Disney clothing and have some pictures taken of me without being at Disney for once!! I hope it shows you all that you don’t have to be at a Disney park to have a Disney photoshoot. Anyway I want to share with you a few of my favourite pictures because Dani’s camera was amazing at making me look decent for once haha. If you would like to see more pictures make sure you check out my both my Instagram’s as I will be posting a lot more pictures. Also I will be posting some on the Photography section of my blog too!! Thank you Dani for travelling all that way to spend a day with me. It was so enjoyable and memorable. I really hope we can do something similar in the future. Lidia x Social Media:![]() On my last disney trip (beginning of September), I stayed off site for the first time at Disneyland Paris and let me tell you I loved it. I stayed at Hipark by Adagio Apartment Hotel near Disneyland Paris, so I thought why not give you a little review, just in case any of you are thinking “where can I stay to save money?”. |
