My FAVORITE Fall Things


I couldn’t decide if I wanted to make a post dedicated to all the things I love about fall but on Thursday it was 75 degrees here in Charlotte and I couldn’t help but feel inspired (lol!). The weather was just soooo perfect that I had to make a post about all the things I love most about the cooler weather! 

1. Booties – REALLLY regretting not buying these during the anniversary sale. Honestly, what was I thinking?! (haha!) Any way, booties are perfect for transitioning from summer to fall because they can be worn with shorts while its still warm outside and then with jeans when it gets cooler because of this I feel you really get your moneys worth out of them. 


2. Crockpot Meals – There is nothing better than coming home from work or a day out to the smell of a crockpot meal! When we make crockpot meals they are usually pretty hearty and perfect for making you feel warm and cozy when the weather is cooling down. 


3. Pumpkin Flavored Drinks – All I have to say is…PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE!! 


4. Vanilla Pumpkin Marshmallow Candle – My favorite fall candle from bath and body works! This candle just smells like a delicious pumpkin desert with lots of vanilla amazing-ness!  A close runner up is Hot Cocoa and Cream which I just purchased but have yet to burn in my apartment.
 It smells delicious in the jar so I am sure I will fall in love with it too. 

5. Over the Knee Boots with an Oversized Sweater Dress – This year I may actually just go ahead and get the Stuart’s but it’s a big purchase for a pair of shoes! I am so good for tripping and scuffing a pair of shoes and I am sure my heart would break if I ruined them buttttttttt they are so cute I just might have to take that chance! 


6. Plaid Shirts – These scream fall and I love to throw these on with a white tee and leggings to “jazz up” an outfit. 


7. THANKSGIVING!! – I lovee being around my family and this is usually our “big” holiday for the year. Family comes from all over and my mom cooks all of the holiday favorites! It’s usually one one the best days of the year. 


8. Chunky Sweaters – Chunky sweaters with jeans or chunky sweaters with leggings…you just can’t go wrong either way!


9. Rich colored lipsticks (especially shades of brown) – I really like to fill my lips in with MAC chestnut lip liner or use MAC Antique velvet during the fall. I think the rich brown tones just scream fall. 

10. Pumpkin Muffie from Panera Bread – This is available at Panera now and is sooooo good! A must try if you are a Panera regular like me (lol!). 


11. Chunky Cardigans– Again, Chunky cardigans with jeans….chunky cardigans with leggings…you just cannot go wrong! lol!
