5 Reasons Why The Upcoming Fall Season Will Be The Best

With summer coming to an end, school is right around the corner. While you may not be excited due to the over expenses of books or your room and board deposit, I am here to remind you of the wonderful things that follow the start of the school year. Exchanging bikinis for wool sweaters and socks, autumn is one of the most desirable seasons yet. Here is a list of five reasons that you should be looking forward to the upcoming fall season.

1. Scenery

While everyone enjoys sunny and 75°, we also need to show appreciation for the change in scenery as we transition into the colder months. As the ground becomes chilly and the leaves start to fall, we are able to go outside and experience a world like never before. As the days grow shorter and the nights grow longer we are blanketed with the oranges, yellows and reds of the trees. And while the biting wind blows and our faces grow pink, we remain delighted with our surroundings because we live in a place where we can experience all four seasons in one year.

2. Clothing

Transitioning into autumn means that hats and boots become a necessity. People will be spotted wearing all shades of caramel and colors of wine. We will be snuggled in the comfort of our scarves and thankful when the sun peeks our to see us because when it shines you can feel the warmth of it on your skin. Leggings and yoga pants will dominate the lives of girls and women, because let's be real, they go with absolutely everything. Oversize sweaters will be favored by all, not only because they are comfy, but it will also allow us to hide the weight that we will gain as we await hibernation in the winter time.

3. Accessories

Autumn allows us to express the edgy side of our wardrobe. As us girls get ready for the season to hit, we stock up on numerous lipstick colors that consist of deep reds, plums and browns. Our nails will be found in colors of taupe and mauve, and plenty of rings on all fingers for the finishing touch.

 


4. Traditional Food

Lets be real, as the season of fall begins, we will crave a plethora of warm foods to allow ourselves to cuddle into bed comfortably at night. Such as soups and mashed potatoes, cooked vegetables and pies will also be sprawled out on the table as far as the eye can see. Pumpkin seeds will be thrown into the oven, and there will be lines at Starbucks as everyone craves the delight of the pumpkin spice latte.

5. Decor

As we approach holidays such as Halloween and Thanksgiving, we will be able to find fall themed decor everywhere that we turn. Whether it is the leaf decals on the window, or the fabric greetings that your mom hangs on your front door. Autumn colored throw blankets, or the overwhelming smell of apple cider and hazelnut. Throw pillows will be changed, and even though the skies continue to grow grey, we will always be surrounded by the brightness of the colors of fall.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
