Being the southern girl that I am from a state that is literally always hot seasons like fall are a little hard to get the whole feeling.

It's official. Weather is getting cooler, the leaves are falling, the breeze is blowing, and pumpkin spice is in full effect. We ALL know what this means. As of Sept. 22^nd, fall is officially here, ladies and gentlemen. That warm and cozy feeling that we have all come to love is here to stay. So what does that mean for all of us? Being a southern girl, I don't really get to experience all of the wonderful things that fall has to offer. I mean yes it gets cold and leaves fall and change colors and all that good stuff but that's about it. Realistically, it really only gets at its lowest to about the 30's and that on a good day at about 3 am. SO with that being said I am here to take you through a southern girl's guide to fall time fun.

Find out all of your favorite things about the season.

This sounds like such a random and kind of irrelevant part of it but you would be surprised how little people actually know about what they like about the season or how much this time of year actually brings. For example one person loves the cold weather and the smell of the fall breeze. For all of you fashion killa's out there they love the cute clothes that you get to wear. Just sit down with some friends and find what speaks to you!

Make an effort to embrace all of the fall things in your surroundings.

Fall is literally EVERYWHERE. It's in the air, it's on the ground, it's in our stores, on our phones, it's in our houses, TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT! Go outside and take in the fresh air. Let the chill go through your body on one of those breezy fall nights. Go to starbucks and get one of those infamous pumpkin spice lattes. Go take a walk and crunch over those fallen leaves or make a pile of them and jump into it. (actually, that second part sounds kind of dangerous so maybe we don't do that.)

Do any and all fall activities that you can think of.

There are literally hundreds of fall related things that you can do to get you in the fall mood. There's always the cliché pumpkin carving, haunted house and bonfire ideas but think outside of the box! You could do a really cute photoshoot with all of the beautiful fall colors. You could go exploring through your neighborhood or local park. With our ability and access to all of these different technological things we can sit down for 2 minutes and come up with a hundred different things that you could do. So grab a group of friends and get out there and do them! The memories that you make you will never forget.

Enjoy the time while it's here.

Time in general goes by really fast and living in a southern state the time we have to do they typical falls things that the other northern states may do becomes limited due to the fact that weather here isn't exactly ideal for some of the typically fall things that everyone else in those northern states would normally do. But, even with that being said there are still so many opportunities to do stuff. Don't make weather or time an excuse. Don't think about it just do it. It doesn't matter where you're from or what surrounds you, find something and be a part of it. Live your life, learn something new about yourself, fall in love with fall. Hopefully some of the things that I've listed above help some of you other southern friends of mine with some new ideas or ways to have a great time during my favorite time of the year.
