1. Pumpkin Spice Lattes
We don't know why but they are amazing. When you think of fall you think of PSLs. Everyone knows that once September hits, Starbucks starts selling their famous Pumkin Spice Lattes and you need to head over there ASAP. There is nothing like a warm PSL to give you the fall-feels.
2. Halloween
Who doesn't love this holiday? You get to dress up like whatever you want and ask people for free candy. Nothing gets better than that. Bring out your inner child and dress to impress.
3. Pumpkin Picking
Pumpkin picking is the best fall activity, especially with friends and family. Go on a hay ride and take some cute photos. Also, bringing pumpkins home means you can make pumpkin pie, jack-o-lanterns and toast pumpkin seeds. Woah, pumpkin overload!
4. Back to School
There is an obvious downside to going back to school, like homework, but seeing your friends again and getting back into a routine is the best. Sports events, homecoming, spirit week and other school functions make going back to school not so bad. Enjoy it while you can!
5. Fall Fashion
Fall is known for being a high point in the fashion world. The transition from summer to winter means cute jackets, comfy sweaters, booties, scarves, and more. You get to look cute and comfy all at once. Plus, NYFW is in September and all of the hottest designers will be hitting the streets in the bests styles, oh, and you know they bring it.
6. Football
Tailgates, jerseys, and buff guys fighting for a ball, i'm in! Football season is the best season. Whether you are supporting your high school team, going out to see the NFL, or watching from home, there is nothing like a good football game to make it feel like fall.
7. Apples
Apple pie, apple crisp, apple cider, caramel apples. Apples are the fruit of fall and there are so many different types to choose from. Apple picking is so much fun and farm fresh apples are the best for making apple pie. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, right?
8. Thanksgiving
A holiday essentially dedicated to food is my kind of holiday. The food is amazing and you get to stuff your face without anyone questioning it. By the end of the night you may feel sick, but it is so worth it.
9. Weather
As the weather changes from summer to winter, we say goodbye to heat and humidity and hello to cool and breezy. The weather in fall may feel a bit chilly at times, but that makes for a great excuse to break out your new boots and comfy sweaters. Plus, no humidity means no more frizzy hair, and thats a bonus for everyone!
10. Movies
When October rolls around it comes with a ton of great movies to watch on TV. "Hocus Pocus", "Casper the Friendly Ghost", "Moms Got a Date with a Vampire", "Phantom of the Megaplex", "Halloweentown", and a Harry Potter Marathon. Strap in because you might not want to leave your room after you turn the TV on.
11. Scenery
Red, orange, yellow, these are the colors of fall. When the leaves change color and fall to the ground all you want to do is run outside and jump around in them. This is the best time to take a long walk outside because it looks and feels so nice outside. It also makes for a great Instagram, if you find the right lighting, of course.
12. Bonfires
Bonfires are a great way to spend a cool fall night. Wrapped up in flannels and big cozy blankets around the fire while you roast marshmallows. The perfect time to tell stories of summer and reflect on the past year.
13. Scents
Fall has so many distinct smells. Pumpkin, campfires, cinnamon, apple cider, maple, spice, leaves, vanilla, etc. Yankee Candle and Bath & Body Works both have amazing fall scent collections that are to die for. Make your home smell like fall all the time with candles, soaps and air fresheners.
14. Cuddling
It's cuddle season! Break out the fuzzy slippers, warm blankets and old movies. Fall makes you want to get cozy as you prepare for the cold winter ahead. Grab a cuddle buddy and settle in because its time.
15. Boots
Everyone knows you can't have fall fashion without footwear and boots are the staple shoe of fall. Combat boots, cowboy boots, booties, and knee highs. The perfect excuse to go shoe shopping and make your feet look fabulous.
