Lately, every morning when I wake up, I am greeted with autumn temperatures, and it has gotten me antsy for full fledged autumn to arrive. (And yes, it is autumn not fall; show the best and most beautiful season some respect.) I have started to anticipate all of autumn's glory and to consider why it is clearly the best season of the year.
1. Bonfires
Some of the best memories are made around bonfires. The flames dance to the song of night, and you can't help but feel unutterably content.
2. Beanies
Not only do they add a grunge look to any outfit and compliment the autumn aesthetic, they are also a quicker alternative to dry shampoo.
3. Autumn Leaves
The sea of green that exists during the summer evolves into a golden and fiery display and illuminates the forests and horizons. The world never feels more alive than when the leaves are celebrating their last weeks before winter.
4. Sweater Weather
You essentially get to wear a snuggie everywhere you go. Its like a socially acceptable blanket.
5. Apple Orchards
You get to pick apples, have a doughnut and cider, and get hopelessly lost in a corn maze. Its the perfect afternoon.
6. Halloween
You get to dress up and eat candy. What more could you want in a holiday?
7. I'll admit it.. Pumpkin Spice Lattes
Call me basic if you wish, but pumpkin spice lattes are quite delicious. So in the words of Donna and Tom, "Treat. Yo. Self."
