A September must-have. I keep mine draped over the sofa and grab it every night when temps dip.

The easiest way to bring in autumn vibes. Spice, amber, or woods instantly cozy up the room.

This is my favorite chair in my house, I have the brown and it’s more of beige/pink but it’s perfect! It’s so comfortable and the cushions are removable and the top slipcover is washable ( zippers off the cushion).

To me, you’re not entertaining unless you have a charcuterie board!

Half Baked Harvest is my go-to for fall cooking. Tieghan’s recipes are not only easy to follow but also make you feel like a pro in the kitchen. They’re the kind of dishes that quickly become family favorites you’ll actually look forward to making. I...

I’m a big bread maker and love these domed dutch ovens!

Whether you’re looking to refresh your routine or add a bit of autumn magic to your days these picks are all about embracing comfort, creativity, and connection.

I love these mugs because they can used for a variety of things including soup, coffee or tea (specifically a homemade pumpkin chia tea). I personally love a heavier mug this time of year, it just feels cozy and comforting.

Le Creuset Pumpkin Mug

I don’t love to dive into the fall with a full thriller, mystery or anything too dark. This book is magical and transports you to another time and truly makes you think about your own life and choices. It’s just whimsical enough to celebrate the begi...

The Lost Bookshop: Charming Uplifting Novel 2025

Have you ever read a book that stayed with you and everytime you see someone read it you’re secretly envious they are reading it for the first time?! This book is one of my absolute favorites and fits the fall season. You’ll feel all of Addie’s pai...

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

There is absolutely nothing better then a cozy blanket but the next best thing is Sherpa robe preferably fresh out of the dryer or towel warmer for extra coziness!

Life feels a little easier when you make time for yourself. Each item is chosen to help you slow down, feel grounded and enjoy the little rituals that make everyday life feel intentional and soothing.

When September hits, I switch to a body lotion that really hydrates without any extra fuss. This one is fragrance-free, sinks in beautifully and leaves skin feeling soft and calm. It’s a staple in my morning and evening routine.

Fall means crisp mornings and (let’s be honest) dry lips. This tinted lip balm feels buttery, lasts and has just enough tint and shine to double as a simple gloss. I throw it in every bag so I’m never without it.

Tinted Lip Balm - Nourish, Hydrate, and Add a Pop of Color with ...

I’ll go on record saying Lincoln Park After Dark is my forever fall shade, but this year I’m switching things up with a rich plum manicure. And as I’ve shared before, Olive & June has quickly become one of my go-to brands for at-home nails.

Fall Long-Lasting Polish Set

Dark, velvety rose wrapped in smoky oud. It’s moody but still wearable every day, to me this is what fall should smell like brb gotta go watch Practical Magic! PS- I had to google what oud was too.
