Labor Day has passed and Oct. 1 is around the corner meaning that fall is at our feet. So many people insist that summer is the best season of them all; maybe because school is out, or maybe because of the beach trips. I can definitely see the pros of summer, but autumn is very obviously the best season.
Of course the cool weather is the biggest factor for fall being the best season, however, there are plenty more reasons as to why fall is the best season.
1. The colorful leaves
Everywhere you look, there is an array of yellow, red, orange and brown leaves covering the ground. On top of the beautiful colors, it feels incredibly satisfying to hear the crunch as you walk over them.
2. It's boot season
I can definitely say a nice pair of boots adds so much to an outfit. Knee-high boots, leggings, and an over-sized sweater is my go-to during the fall.
3. Larger selections of hot drinks
There is a much larger selection of hot drinks around-- including the fabulous Pumpkin Spice Latte.
4. Those big, round, basketball-looking things
Yes, pumpkins! Pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, pumpkin scones and pumpkin seeds are everywhere. Oh, and carving pumpkins is a must.
5. Knit scarves
Knit scarves are one of my favorite additions to an outfit. I only wish it would be appropriate to wear them during the summer. I, for sure, pull out all of my knit scarves once the cold weather hits.
6. Halloween
Halloween is probably my favorite holiday. There are kids running around in all kinds of costumes, candy is being continuously stocked in stores, and horror movie marathons on TV!
7. Thanksgiving is soon
Who doesn't want a ton of food in front of them all at once?
8. Haunted Houses
Even though haunted houses terrify me, I love them. There is definitely an adrenaline rush when walking through a dark house with random noises and people jumping out at you.
9. Sweet cinnamon scents
Once fall hits, there are tons of fall-inspired scents on the market. Whether that be in candles, body washes or lotions, they smell heavenly.
10. More sleep...possibly
Daylight Savings Time is here when fall comes, meaning, the time falls back an hour. Maybe you can take advantage of that extra hour of sleep on Nov. 6!
11. State fairs
The state fair comes with a variety of rides, fried food and carnival games. It is basically a huge party!
12. SWEATER WEATHER
My absolute favorite part of fall-- SWEATER WEATHER! Sweaters are the most comfortable items in my closet and I pretty much live in them during the fall time.
