Embracing the Best of Autumn: My Top 14 Fall Obsessions

Fall is finally here!  I love the autumn season and it’s my very favorite time of the year – no matter where I am.  The best of autumn includes temperatures that are FINALLY cooling off and a crispness in the air that I absolutely love. Pumpkins and fall décor are appearing on doorsteps and fall colors are rich and vibrant.  I am obsessed with the fall season! This quote is one of my favorites and it is posted in my office.

Fall Picnic at the Beach – How to Say Goodbye to Summer

Many of us are mourning the rapidly approaching end to summer weather. Soon, our lazy afternoons will be occupied by visits to a theater or museum rather than seaside. Long walks in the sand become time on the treadmill, and novels will be read cozied up by the fireplace instead of under the warm rays.  I do experience a sense of melancholy reminiscing about vacations and lazy afternoons spent on the beach.  However, as the vibrant colors of summer transition to the warm, earthy tones of autumn, there’s an enchanting allure to a beach picnic during this season. For me, there’s only one solution –  a fall picnic at the beach is how to say goodbye to summer.

Fall into Style: Embrace the Transition from Summer to Fall Fashion

As much as I crave my summertime fun on the beach, I welcome the transition from summer to fall fashion. There are many reasons to love the season. I cherish football games, pumpkin spice drinks, and cozy fires, but my favorite part happens in the closet. We need to shift our summer looks to cool temperatures and hot styles. No reason to dread it anymore – it is much easier than you think. Simply take stock of your basics, and shop to pick up a few new pieces.
