Pumpkin patches, scarves, hot lattes, beanies, hay rides, sweaters, and more. Fall is every basic girl's favorite season, and for good reason. The crisp air and and cozy outfits fill my heart with joy. Every year I count down the days until September and I look forward to the moment the leaves start to turn those beautiful shades of orange and red. This year, Mother Nature must not have gotten the memo. These 90 degree days in the middle of September are getting old and you might be wondering if the Midwest is going to skip fall altogether this year. So, if you're ready for 60 degree days and bonfire nights, you've probably already done these things- maybe even weeks ago.


1. You've already lit your fall candles

My roommate and I busted out our fall scents a couple weeks ago. Bring on the cinnamon spice, cozy cabin, pine forest, pumpkin harvest, and more. Our apartment smells like a pumpkin patch mixed with baked goods and I couldn't be more happy. You could even say it's #lit

2. Your closet is filled with your fall wardrobe and it's begging to be worn

You already have your scarves, sweaters, riding boots, vests, and beanies on standby waiting to be worn. However, you don't dare wear them yet, because even though it might be 60 when you wake up, you'll be sweating your booty off by noon. Don't worry though, you're already prepared for when the weather decides to make up it's mind and actually commit to being fall.

3. Your house/apartment is already decorated and looks like a Pinterest board threw up on it

You already have your fall wreath on your door and those cute little white pumpkins on your coffee table. You decorated weeks ago in the hopes that the weather outside would get on board and that the temperatures would start dropping.

4. Ordered a PSL from Starbucks

Whether it's the original pumpkin spice latte or that salted caramel whatever-they-call it, the fall menu at Starbs is your fav and you probably went there the day it rolled out and order a grande....or four.

5. You keep checking the weather app

Whenever you've been looking forward to fall for weeks, but you still sweat whenever you walk outside because apparently it's still the middle of July outside, you keep checking the weather app to see when you will finally be able ditch your short sleeve tops. Don't worry though, eventually the temps will hit the 60's and all of us fall lovers will be jumping for joy.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
