I love Fall. I mean, I LOVE Fall. It's my favorite season.
I love that first day when I feel the first chill in the air and grab a heavier scarf or pashmina to wrap around me. I love the smells of Fall: apples, cinnamon, spices and vanilla. I love the overall look of Fall, blanketed in red, orange, and gold. Fall is the time (the only time) that I will stop by Starbucks to get my favorite white hot chocolate to warm me up (F.Y.I. - I'm a Dunkin Donuts kind of girl) and it is also the time to get in the spirit of the holidays, starting with Halloween, a holiday I love.
Fall is a season that's great for fashion. I love wearing sweaters and stepping outside in the cool, crisp air while taking in the beautiful colors of the changing leaves. It's the time to pull out all my cute boots, including my favorite pair of all time: my beat up, worn in, fabulous black BCBGeneration riding boots that I bought my first Fall in New York City. It has taken me five years to get these boots looking and feeling JUST RIGHT and I practically live in those for months at a time. Fall is a great time to layer as well. How often do you bundle up to run to your car and then once you are inside a store, you are burning up due to the heat being on? It's simple to grab a tee, a long cardigan and a scarf to wrap around your neck to run errands, and once inside, you can take off the scarf or sweater or both!
Overall, I love the way Fall makes me feel. The hustle and bustle of Summer is over and it represents a time for me to relax and get comfortable. And what better way than by throwing on a cute outfit and taking in the sights and smells of my favorite season....Fall.
