It’s almost October, the weather is finally cooling off a bit, and pumpkins (and even Christmas trees!!) are appearing everywhere we go. Today, I’m sharing a few of my favorite things for fall. These are the items that tell me every year that my favorite season of all has arrived…and instantly, I’m happier.
1. I LOVE to snuggle up in a soft, cable knit sweater in the cooler months. (Not the itchy kind, though!) While I could live day in and day out in my favorite hoodies, the sweater gives me the comfort of my hoodies, but looks just a little bit better. {sweater: H&M}
2. Yankee’s Harvest candle has been burning in my home since I was a little kid. Some scents automatically make you feel something specific, and this candle never fails to make me feel like fall, no matter what time of year. {candle: Yankee}
3. My beloved Burberry scarf has been a staple in my wardrobe for nearly 10 years. I’ll never forget that after I bought it, my husband found the receipt, they had labeled the scarf “winter wear” and he asked me if I’d bought a new coat! Not quite, dear! {scarf: Burberry}
4. I love heels as much as the next person, but they really aren’t practical for the every day wardrobe of a stay at home mom. While I don’t have these boots exactly, ($800…ouch!) I do have brown and black boots that I wear often during the fall and winter…and even the spring! {boots: Burberry}
5. Twining’s English Breakfast Tea is my absolute favorite of all teas. Add just a little sugar, and you’ve got a delicious drink that will warm you up inside and out. (And don’t think you have to drink it only for breakfast, it’s delicious any time of day!) {tea: Twinings}
6. During the cool, dreary, short days of fall and winter, it’s a perfect time to cozy up with my favorite classic novels and a cozy blanket. I could lay around all day reading books like Pride & Prejudice, Wuthering Heights, and of course, my favorite, Jane Eyre. If you’ve not read any of these books, I highly recommend you give them a look! {photo: google}
7. I’ve worn my red pea coat for almost as many years as I’ve had my Burberry scarf. The classic cut of the pea coat will never go out of style, but the red color gives it a bit of pop. It’s comfy and cozy, and I love it! The pea coat pictures if from Alexander McQueen, mine is from Old Navy…comparable, right?? {pea coat}
