FALL: a season to love

Fall is coming! I simply can't wait! Fall is my favorite season... and these are only a few reasons why...

Anthropologie's Fall Line.
I love Anthropologie all year long, but my love for Anthropologie grows in the cold seasons. Anthropologie just does fall and winter right.

(1.)  (2.)  (3.)


Butternut squash.
I was only introduced to the amazing butternut squash this last winter. Now I can't seem to get it off my mind and am looking forward to soups, muffins, and oven-roasted versions all fall long.



Layers.
A good fall outfit consists of at least 3 top layers, 2 bottom layers, and 2 or 3 feet layers... and about 5 accessory layers of course... oh, and we can't forget the 2 or more knit accessory layers. Yeah... I have no cold tolerance.



Wrapping up in grandma-made afghans.
Everyone in my family has a collection of grandma's afghans. There are big afghans, medium afghans, and my favorites- the lap afghans. They were always made of the most random color combinations and never quite matched my room, but I cherish every one and can't wait for a cold fall night that allows me to bundle up in 3 or 4 of them.



Boots, boots, and more boots.
Nearly all my feet wear during fall and winter are boots- boots with dresses, boots with jeans, boots with pjs (my Uggs... it gets cold in our house!)... I like to get a new pair of boots a year and my birthday is coming up, so it's time to go boot shopping!



5 more days....

Ugh.
SERIOUSLY, I want to LIVE in an Anthropologie store. I dream about it. Often.

And now I'm going to be dreaming about those last boots you pictured.
WHOA...

It sucks being a poor grad student.
:(

Thanks for the great post!

I'm obsessed with fall... for very similar reasons!

Also, anthropologie, Urban Outfitters, and Free People... all favorites.
