Summer is finally winding down. Vacations are over, tan lines are fading, and “back to school” ads are in full swing. It can be a sad transition from summer into fall until you realize all the great things fall has to offer.
1. Cold weather
I don’t know about you but I’m tired of sweating.
2. No shaving
Even though I’m not one to give up shaving my legs all together, fall definitely gives you the excuse to let your hair grow a little bit longer than you usually would. Who has time to shave their legs everyday anyway?
3. Leggings
Although they can arguably be worn all year, there’s no denying that the best time to wear leggings as pants is in the fall. It’s not too hot outside and it’s not too cold.
4. Halloween
It’s the one day of the year you won’t be judged for eating all the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups you want.
5. Pumpkin picking
Nothing gives me more joy in life than going to a farm and picking out a pumpkin to carve.
6. Haunted houses
There’s nothing more fun than walking through a haunted house with all of your friends.
7. Scary movies
Even though I hate being scared, I somehow manage to put that aside for a month and enjoy a ton of scary movies. They really help me get into the Halloween spirit.
8. Baggy sweaters
In the fall I basically live in a baggy sweater and leggings. It’s the most comfortable outfit in the entire world.
9. Fall drinks
I am counting down the days until I can go to "Dunkin’ Donuts" and order a pumpkin iced coffee.
10. Apple cider donuts
I’m probably going to start a petition to make them available all year round.
11. Scarves
I have a minor scarf addiction. I probably have at least two in every pattern and color you can think of. When it comes to making a complete outfit, scarves are the perfect accessory. They keep you warm and look cute.
12. UGG boots
I don’t care if they’re ugly they’re super comfortable.
13. Combat boots
They’re just as comfortable as UGG boots but make you look a little more stylish.
14. TV shows
All of my favorite TV shows have taken a break for the summer and I’m experiencing definite withdrawal.
15. Thanksgiving
It’s an entire holiday dedicated to giving thanks and eating. How could it get any better?
16. Pumpkin pie
The best dessert.
17. Fall scents
I already went to “Bath and Body Works” and purchased a cinnamon pumpkin candle. I haven’t lit it yet but I’m ready for my room to smell like a magical fall wonderland.
18. Fuzzy socks
They’re basically blankets for your feet.
19. Flannel shirts
They’re comfortable and cozy.
20. Concert tours
I go to concerts all year but fall is definitely the best time. All of the bands that have been taking breaks to record new music are ready to get back on the road.
