Happy pumpkin season!  Nothing like walking into this scene at the grocery store. :)  I hope your Fall is off to a fabulous start!

My front porch is decorated and I’m excited to share it soon (I’m so behind on posting!).  The main reason I’m obsessed with my Fall porch this year is because of these beautiful faux trees!  Every season I buy real trees for my front porch and every season they die.  Or birds move in and make a mess of my porch.  Ha. ;)  To be honest I’m tired of spending so much money on trees that never last long because my porch doesn’t get any sunlight.  I spent some time researching faux trees that would look good all year and could not be happier with the winner.  These weeping eucalyptus trees are so beautiful and realistic!  I also love the pots that come with them.  As soon as they arrived I could think of so many places I wanted to put them inside too!  But they are perfect for the porch.  Cute for fall?  Check.  Cute for spring?  Check.  Cute for summer?  Check. Porch pics coming soon!

Today I’m sharing a few fun tops/sweaters I’ve been wearing and loving.  We’ve had mostly warm weather lately, but one or two days a week things cool off and we get a taste of Fall.  You better believe I’m wearing a sweater the second I get a chance!  The sleeves on this oatmeal sweater are perfection.  Plus it’s so soft and cozy!

{Fall days graphic tee/initial pendant necklace/AG jeans/Fall bootie options}

This Fall days ahead graphic tee is another favorite.  It’s cute on its own for warmer days but I bought it mostly for layering!  So cute under a jacket.

It’s also perfect to wear under a cream cardigan.

Or a green one.  Love it!  Here are a few other Pink Lily graphic tees.. they have really cute things in for Fall!

{camel textured sweater/initial pendant necklace/AG jeans/Fall bootie options}

This is one more recent favorite Pink Lily sweater. I love the texture.  And the sleeves.  And the color!

Just take me to the pumpkin patch already. :)

I was wearing it in these pics my friend took.  I made a nice attempt to make a Fall arrangement the other day.

For the record I am NOT good at flower arranging.  You’ve probably noticed by now that most of the flowers in my home are faux and when I do buy real flowers I stick with all the same flower.  On a creative whim I decided to buy random flower bundles at the grocery store.

Not amazing but hey!  It feels Fallish and I had so much fun playing around with flowers. My friend filmed me so that I could put tother a little IG reel which for the record.. is another thing I’m NOT good at.  I hate all things video!  You know what I am good at though?  Pretending.  I was a master of make believe when I was a little girl and the skill stuck.

What else can I pretend I know how to do?  You’ll have to tune in next week to find out.

I know you’re at the edge of your seat.  Ha.

{flannel work shirt/jean options for over the knee boots/over the knee boots}

A few more cute favorites!  If you want a new Fall top or two but don’t want to spend much I found some darling options on-line at Walmart!  Love this flannel.

{cozy yarn sweater/initial pendant necklace/jean options for over the knee boots/over the knee boots}

A soft, lightweight green sweater is always a winner.  And these boots!  I’m not kidding..  so comfortable!  They come in lots of colors too.  So far I’ve worn them more than my other over the knee boots that cost 3 times as much!  They aren’t tight on my calves and tie in the back.. really cute with skirts too.

Photo courtesy of Ellie.. my girls are becoming good little photographers!  I needed a pic for IG and had just made banana bread muffins. Kenny came home from a run and happened to be in his orange tank so I had him jump in the picture.  “Happy Fall!”

What you can’t see in this pic is the huge mess all over my kitchen islands from making the muffins and how sweaty Kenny was from running (I had him stand behind me for a reason!).  Good at pretending, remember? ;)

{stripe puff sleeve top/initial pendant necklace/jean options for over the knee boots/over the knee boots}

A few more simple, cute Fall tops.  Green.. check!  Stripes.. check!

{puff sleeve tee/initial pendant necklace/jean options for over the knee boots/over the knee boots}

Such a great basic black tee with a little extra in the sleeves!  This top has been on repeat.

This black dress is another cute option.

{crewneck swingdress/initial pendant necklace/over the knee boots}

It’s not fitted or tight at all.. just comes in slightly at the ribcage.  It would be flattering on any body type and comes in other colors too!

I’m not usually a dress person, but if there is one time of year I want to wear dresses more often it’s Fall.  I love the colors and prints on Fall dresses.  Plus they all look so cute with boots!

Fall is also the only time of year that cooking is appealing.  It’s a magic season for me. :)  Anyone else?
