Happy October!

Welcome back to Blogtober 2023 and what is day 12! This has come around super quickly but this is one of my favourite posts so far.

That feeling when the leaves start changing colours and the cosy feeling sets in. It’s the season of sweaters, pumpkin-spiced everything, and heartwarming moments by the fire. Heres a list of my absolute favorite things about autumn!

1. The Colours

There’s something magical about watching the leaves turn from lush green to fiery reds, burnt oranges, and rich browns. The trees transform into a canvas of autumnal splendor, making every walk through the park or drive in the countryside an enchanting experience.

2. Sweater Weather

Nothing says “autumn” quite like pulling out those cozy, oversized sweaters. I adore wrapping myself in layers upon layers of knitwear, feeling all snug and warm. It’s like wearing a hug!

3. Pumpkin Spice Everything

Yes, I’m one of those people who eagerly awaits the return of pumpkin spice lattes, muffins, and candles. That combination of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves is like a warm hug for your taste buds. Fall flavor at its finest!

4. Cozy Reading Nooks

Autumn is the perfect time to snuggle up with a good book. Create a little reading nook with blankets, pillows, and your favorite novel. Add a steaming cup of tea or hot cocoa, and you’ve got a recipe for literary bliss!

5. Warm Beverages

Speaking of beverages, let’s not forget the warm, comforting drinks that define the season. Whether it’s sipping apple cider by the bonfire, indulging in a hot chocolate with marshmallows, or steeping a cup of herbal tea, these concoctions add a dose of warmth to your chilly days.

6. Halloween Festivities

Oh, the excitement of Halloween! The costumes, the candy, the spooky decorations—it’s a delightful mix of fun and fright. I love decorating my home with cobwebs, skeletons, and jack-o’-lanterns and handing out candy to trick-or-treaters. It’s a blast!

7. Cozy Movie Nights

As the days get shorter and the nights longer, it’s the perfect time for cozy movie nights. Snuggle up with loved ones and enjoy classic films or scary movies, complete with popcorn and fuzzy blankets.

8. The Art of Layering

Autumn fashion is all about layering, and I adore experimenting with different combinations of scarves, boots, and hats. Plus, I get to dust off my collection of plaid shirts and earth-toned accessories. Stylish and warm—what’s not to love?

So there you have it,my favourite things about Autumn, a season that wraps us in warmth and nostalgia.

As the leaves fall, we’re reminded that change can be beautiful, and that sometimes, all you need is a cup of hot cocoa and a pile of blankets to make the world feel right.

Embrace the beauty and comfort of autumn, and let its charm infuse your days with joy and coziness.
