The audacity you have, Mother Nature. Toying with me on the daily.
You gave me warmth only to jump straight to cold. I trusted you, and you let me down.
You might have taken fall away from me, but I can always imagine all of the festive fall possibilities that could have been as I sit in my puffy down coat, wool scarf, leather boots and prepare for the upcoming snowy season.
No matter what you do, I will shamelessly mourn the short-lived fall and fully embrace the early arrival of winter.
Think you can stop me?
Watch me, Mother Nature.
1. RIP to my fall outfits, you will never be forgotten.
Who needs a comfortable, 60-degree day with a sweater, leggings and flats? My neck, hands and feet look great in this full body coat. No need to be scared, but my North Face and I will take you down any time, winter.
2. Sorry sunset tones, you’re now replaced.
Want to wear orange, yellow and red? Sorry, but those colors were only in style for about two weeks. It’s time to move on to gray, green, burgundy and … drum roll please … black! Not only does black match everything, but luckily, it also represents the inner darkness of my soul.
3. Goodbye ordinary drinks, hello seasonal delights.
As good as that iced coffee may be, you know that you want that cool paper cup with the wintry design on it. It’s aesthetically pleasing, and has your name on it. OK Mother Nature, you might have done us a favor with that one.
4. Boots for the WIN.
Leather boots? You know it. Uggs? Didn’t those die in middle school? You thought. Boot season is back and in full effect, baby.
5. Fall 2018, I’m ready for you.
Trust me, my fall looks and I are only getting started. I’d watch your back, Mother Nature. After my quick hibernation from December until October, my fall outfits and I will be back and better than ever.
