Hey there friends! Can you believe it? Fall is right around the corner, and I am beyond excited to dive into all the cozy goodness that this season brings, now if only Texas weather would cooperate. The first of September always signals fall for me, but be sure to mark your calendars cause the first day of Autumn is Sept 22nd! If you're as thrilled as I am, then stick around, because we're about to get totally ready for fall together! Check out my Fall Bucket List at the end!
1. Let's Talk Fashion:
Okay, so, fashion isn't exactly my forte, but it still calls for a little wardrobe switcheroo. Say goodbye to those cute summer outfits and hello to layering like a pro. Think big, chunky sweaters that you can practically live in, all the yoga pants, and stylish scarves and beanies to accessorize, and don't even get me started on the all the super cute ankle boots. It's all about feeling comfy and looking fabulous, right?
2. Cozy Up Your Space:
Who's up for some home transformation? I know I am! Let's swap out those light and breezy cushions for some seriously snuggly ones in warm, fall-ish colors. And can we talk about all the smells? Yes, please! Fill your home with the aromas of cinnamon, pumpkin spice, and everything nice. We love adding different essential oils to our diffusers to give us all the fall feels! And don't forget to drape your couches with those irresistible throw blankets!
3. Foodie Adventures:
Now, you know I'm all about living our best lives, and that includes treating ourselves to some amazing fall flavors. Hit up the local farmer's market and load up on apples, pears, and squashes – they're like the stars of autumn cuisine. Time to whip up those hearty soups, stews, and, of course, bake those Insta-worthy pies that we all secretly dream about.
4. Nature Calls:
Guess what? Fall is nature's way of showing off, and we're not going to miss it. Let's plan a picturesque hike or a leisurely walk in the park to soak up those breathtaking fall colors. And oh, don't forget a thermos filled with hot cocoa or your fave warm drink – because sipping and strolling go hand in hand.
5. Glow Up Your Beauty Routine:
Ladies, it's time to give our skincare and makeup routines a little fall makeover. As the weather gets cooler, our skin needs a little extra love. Think richer moisturizers to keep that glow intact. And for makeup, let's play with those earthy and jewel tones – it's like painting autumn on our faces!
6. Make a Fall Bucket List:
I've got a challenge for you – let's create the ultimate fall bucket list together. We're talking apple picking, carving pumpkins, hosting movie nights with all the cozy blankets, and maybe even trying our hand at some crafty DIY projects. Trust me, this list is going to be your go-to for making memories this season.
7. Capture the Moments:
Oh, you know we're going to document every single bit of this fall journey. Get that camera ready because we're capturing the stunning landscapes, the adorable cozy corners, and, of course, all the mouthwatering treats that come our way. And hey, don't hold back on sharing your own tips and tricks with our amazing community.
8. Attitude of Gratitude:
Last but definitely not least, let's take a moment to soak in the gratitude vibes that fall brings. It's a time for reflection, appreciating the beauty around us, and finding joy in the simplest things. How about we jot down our thoughts in a journal or even share a heartfelt blog post about what fall means to each of us?
Alright, my fall-loving pals, that's the game plan! From embracing fashion and coziness to indulging in fall treats and creating lasting memories, we're going to rock this season like true lifestyle aficionados. So get ready for the leaf-crunching, sweater-weather, pumpkin-everything extravaganza that is about to unfold. Happy fall, and let's make it absolutely fabulous! 🍂🍁
