It was the last official night of summer, so I decided to sit on the porch with some homemade limeade and my laptop to write this. As much as I love hot summer nights, sun-kissed glows and tequila
tasting kisses - I'm ready for Autumn! There is something about the transition into winter that makes this somber season SO achingly beautiful. From the season's deep earthy color pallet, to the fashion, all the way to the yummy foods, here is a list
of why EVERY YEAR I look forward to Autumn oh so much!
The cool crisp air
Curling up in a blanket with a good book
Wrapping my hands around a hot mug
Staying in, getting cozy and having a movie marathon
Cuddling
From scones to pies, the constant aroma of pumpkin spice
Boots, Beanies and Layering
Deep crimson and plum nails and lips
Sleeping while it rains
Football season! (Finger foods, beer, good company and the
constant finger crossing for the Chargers…)
Baking with all the right spices; Cinnamon, cloves, ginger
and nutmeg
The September issue of Vogue
Falling leaves
Leaving windows open so I can bundle up in my sheets
Buying new pens, art supplies, planners and stationary for a
low-cost! (Shout outs to all the back to school sales!)
Pumpkin patches (There will be lots of pumpkins on my porch
this year!)
Dressing up for Halloween
Exchanging ghost stories around a fire-pit…complete with
marshmallows of course!
Spending time with loved ones and giving Thanks while devouring a
home made Thanksgiving Feast! (I wait all year for stuffing!)
Staying inspired: More time indoors=more DIY crafts
Shorter days, longer nights
and of course, my favorite part of Autumn...
Impatiently waiting for Winter to come along with all of
it’s amazing festivities!
XOXO, LALA.
