The season might be saying it's fall, but the weather is telling us that we're still in summer. If you live down south, then you're probably still experiencing humid and sunny 90-95 degree days. I find myself praying for 50 degree days so I can roll out of bed and throw on an oversized sweater instead of tank tops and sandals. For those of you who are desperately trying to get in the mood for fall, here are a few simple changes you can make!
It may be hotter than hades right now, but that shouldn't stop you from getting into an autumn state of mind!
1. Add some fall decor to your home.
Nothing says autumn like burnt orange and neutral tones! Whether you get some pumpkins, a flower vase, or even a fall scented candle, this is a perfect way to get into the fall spirit!
2. Switch to fall colors.
Switching to fall colors can make all the difference! Whether it's through your lipsticks, clothing, nail polish, or accessories, you can easily incorporate the darker colors into your everyday wardrobe.
3. Do some fall-ish things.
If you're of age, I'd highly encourage you to do a wine tasting! The fall of the year is the best time to taste wines because it is during the harvest season. If you're not 21 yet, there are so many great things you can do such as going to a pumpkin patch pumpkin patch, going apple picking, or even a haunted house. If you live in Kentucky, seeing a late night horse race at Churchill Downs is also something you can do!
4. Try out some fall recipes.
Fall is known for being the time of pumpkin pies and lattes! I'm sure most of you probably already have some of these fall recipes pinned on a Pinterest board somewhere. Now is the time to finally try them out! And if you fail, you can always go to the grocery store and buy something.
5. Make a fall music playlist.
There's nothing that gets me hyped for fall more than a good playlist. I always tend to drift towards throwback r&b and country during the fall months. Making a playlist is the perfect way to have all of your favorite songs in one place!
