Oh, hello September!!
That's right, folks. It is officially September 1! And while that might mean sad faces for some of you who will miss the summer, I'm thrilled. Fall is my favvvvvorite time of year, for sure. And no, it's not just because September is my birthday month. It's for a million reasons. The crisp air... the tailgating... the excitement of the holidays around the corner... I could go on and on!
Here are a few of my top favorite fall things.
1- I love fall shoes. From boots to ballet flats, the coziness of cool weather shoes makes me smile. This season, I'm absolutely loving the leather loafer wedge trend! Gorgeous dahhling.
2- As much as I'm loving summer color on my nails (today's color? peach!), I looove dark nail polish. My favorite is Essie's Wicked.
3- Pumpkin spice everything. Lattes. Muffins. Beer. My world famous (ok, maybe Paula Deen's world famous) Oooey Gooey Cake. If it's pumpkin and it's edible, I'm in love.
4- Scarves. Unlike you west coasters out there who get to wear scarves year-round, us Georgia kids only have a few months of scarf-worthy weather. So you bet I take full advantage!
5- Gap's Corduroy Skinny pants. My. Favorite. Pants. Ever. I just about wore out my gray pair last season. Comfortable, chic and perfect for fall.
6- Autumn weather is just right for camping and hiking. From September to November, me, David and the pups are BFF with the north Georgia mountains. In fact, David even proposed to me at the end of a hike on top of a mountain (like I told ya'll here)! We heart nature.
7- Who's that coming down the track? A mean machine in red and black! Goooooo DAWGS! Sic 'em! I hope I've got a lot of SEC fans out there- that will make this college season (WHICH STARTS SATURDAY-YESSSS!) a lot of fun! Just as long as you're not a Gator fan, and then we might not be able to be friends... I'm not saying, but I'm saying ; )
What do you love the most about fall?
michelle at emerald cove just wrote about fall yesterday and i went on gushing about it, too- i love it all! the leaves, the pumpkins, the apples, the smells and sights!
ReplyDeletepumpkin spice lattes - i lust after you.
ReplyDeleteI like that number 7 of yours! I am pumped about the game. Im bummed tickets are going for outrageous prices though :( GO DAWGS!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for fall! It's my favorite season. SEC is the Best!
ReplyDeleteFall is my FAVORITE time of year too!! Haha--I think a combo of the crisp air, fresh apples and football season makes me lust after it all year. And of course I am a GA fan----"there ain't nothing finer in the land".......
ReplyDeletei love those wedges i just wish they weren't so tall! xoxo jillian:: cornflake dreams
ReplyDeleteI too love fall but am still not quite ready to close up the pool and embrace the season. I'm torn between apple orchards, sweaters, and football & the guilt of closing up the pool and waiting 8 months to open it back up again.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love fall too! I'm sad to say goodbye to summer, but my list of favorite things about fall could go on and on...starting with tailgating this weekend!
ReplyDeleteYay Fall!!!! Can't wait to get my hands on a pumpkin spice latte!
ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE this board...perfect for fall! Especially love the latte and scarf!! Perfect!
ReplyDeleteAhh! I saw the pumpkin spice picture and now I really want some pumpkin spice hot cocoa. It sounds weird, but it's sooo amazing! =)
ReplyDeleteCan't believe it's september!!!! You should link up with Natasha's linky today (: Love the wedges and love the dark nail polish colors!!
ReplyDeleteoh i miss that area so much! we used to go camping in the mountains all the time.
ReplyDeleteI have an IV of pumpkin everything hooked up as soon as the temp dips...if it ever dips!!!!!!!!
i love autumn in the UK..the trees are fab..and the fashion is the best...i soak it up before the frigid artic icy tundra of hell breaks loose in Nov.
ReplyDeletethen i cry.
I <3 autumn so much! I just went on a fall shopping spree yesterday because we just moved from Arizona to Pennsylvania and had ZERO fall/winter clothes.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the crisp air, the smell of fireplaces and leaves, apple cider and pumpkin picking, corn mazes, halloween and turkey-day! I'm smiling just thinking about it!
Love love love your post and those Loafers in #1 are perfect! Any hints on where to find that pair??
ReplyDeleteIt's my favorite time of year, LOVE fall. I'm not quite ready for it this year though, our summer started out SO cold.
ReplyDeleteA few things:
1. Love your list.
2. Pumpkin spice beer? Where can I get this?
3. Those wedges? I love that I just blogged about shoes (including that SAME pair, which I adore) this week. Too funny. We apparently have excellent taste.
4. Goooo Utes! ;)
Love love love those shoes!
ReplyDeleteLove your list! Love me some fall! SEC football - UK season ticket holder right here ;) And pumpkin spice lattes are my all time favorite! I'm loving all the leopard print I'm seeing this season too -just bought the cutest leopard heels from BR the other day!
