Happy Wednesday Everyone! I’m currently amidst another crazy week at work, and we have a huge free event planned for this Saturday to help those in our community who have recently lost their jobs. I know I don’t ever really talk specifics about my work on here, but one of the reasons I love what I do so much is because I truly love helping those out there who are in need.
It is my heart’s desire to see our local economy grow and thrive, which is why I’m so excited for my new role in managing all marketing and grants for our agency. I’ve been working my tail off the past few weeks to try to get the word out so people will attend, so fingers crossed that we have a great turnout and the event is a success! 🙂
Fall Obsessions- What I’m Most Excited For
Anyways, we’re t-minus 1 day until the official first day of Fall, so today I thought I’d share with you all some of the things I love most about my favorite season. I mean what’s not to love about it?! Be sure and join in on the fun in the comments and let me know what you love most about the upcoming season!
Blanket Scarves
Blanket scarves are always so cute and chic for fall- not to mention super cozy! I really love how it looks styled with a belt and paired with jeans or leggings and a tunic.
Boots
And who can forget the number one must-have for fall? Boots! The ones with the bows are simply darling, and I love how over-the-knee boots look paired with a cute skirt or jeans!
Caramel Apple Desserts
Adorable Pumpkins
Game Day Food
Halloween Makeup/Dress Up
Rosie the Riveter
Mystical Mermaid
Bambi
Okay, so those were just a few of the things I’m most excited about for the upcoming Fall season. I can never get enough of the fall fashion, food, football, and of course dressing up and creating makeup looks for Halloween is always so much fun! Now it’s your turn- tell me what’s your favorite thing about Fall?
Have a wonderful week!- Cara
Linking up with Wonderful Wednesday, What’s Happening Wednesday, Thursday Favorite Things, and Think Tank Thursday

Thank-you! I keep wanting to break out the blanket scarves, but it’s still a little too warm! Looking forward to it though! 🙂

Thank-you! It was really fun to create!
YESSS! Ah I just love fall so much!
ME too!!
I’m seriously obsessed with riding boots and blanket scarves! I just bought a new scarf the other day. I loved my old riding boots sooo much. I seriously wore them all of the time. I wore them so much, they eventually broke last March. I’m in need of a new pair but I honestly have no idea where to start looking!
Oh no! Hopefully you can find a new pair soon! 🙂
I don’t have a blanket scarf, but I could definitely get into them!
They’re so chic looking and cozy!
I think you hit everything that I love about Fall. Bring on boots, scarves, and so much more.
Everyone I’ve talked to lately at work says they don’t like fall, but I’m like what’s not to love?! haha
I’m so excited for this season! Yes to all of that but I really need to make that pepperoni cheese football!!!
It looks so yummy! I want to try it out soon!
Those blanket scarves are so cozy! I need to buy at least 5. I also love wearing boots in the fall. I think something I’m excited about is going up in the mountains and crunching along in the leaves and then having a fire and roasting marshmallows and hot dogs.
That sounds so amazing Shani! I love doing that in the Fall months too!
THAT FOX PUMPKIN IS SO CUTE OMG. How stinking adorable is that?! I need to put it on my front porch!
I know I totally want to make it now! 🙂
YESS to all of the blanket scarves! I just wish it were cold enough to wear them without dying of heat stroke!
Yeah really, it’s pretty ridiculous hot right now haha. Hoping it cools down soon!
I’m excited for sweaters, scarves and boots also! Game day food is always a plus.

I love watching the game but good food makes it so much better! 😉
That’s awesome that your work is having a free event for the community! I am so excited for Fall. I still keep hoping that we get one here in TX. I would love to not be wearing shorts and flip flops at Christmas. I love blanket scarfs, boots, the food,etc when it comes to Fall.
Haha, yeah hopefully it will cool down soon! 🙂
YES to all of these! We don’t get to wear fall clothes much in FL but I’m excited for trips out of FL 🙂
I guess it is nice to have warm weather year round though! 🙂
I can not wait for Halloween either! Love it! I wish we could wear scarves more, but here it is way too hot even in full blown autumn.
I know it’s still hot here too! But I’m so ready for boots and scarves haha
Cozy scarves and boots are my favorites for fall as well! Fall is definitely my favorite season of the year! Pumpkins are my go to for fall decor! 5 of 7 decor pieces are pumpkins in my home this year!
I love pumpkins too! They make the house so cozy looking, I think!
I’m so excited for boots and scarves! And fun fall food 🙂
Yep fall food is the best! 🙂
I hope your event goes really well this weekend!! It sounds like it will be really great! I’m excited to pull out my scarves, ankle booties and eat some caramel apple treats 🙂 I just finished up writing out our Fall Bucket List so we can pack lots of fun into our days.
Thank-you! I need to create one of those too! I’m hoping to start some new Fall traditions this year! 🙂
I’m so excited for fall too! I love those scarves and the caramel apple desserts look amazing!
I really want the cheesecake one now! haha
I am totally with you on all of this girl! The boots with the bows…beautiful!

I know, right!? I want them! haha 🙂
I love blanket scarves too! Those bow boots are so cute!
I’m on the hunt for those boots now! They’re adorable!
Love your fall list and your Halloween makeup ideas are really cute esp the deer! My favorites for fall are boots, plaid tops, pumpkin scented candles and Halloween for sure!
Thank-you! I love breaking out the fall scented candles–it just warms the house up and makes it smell so good! 🙂
I am so excited to break out the blanket scarves again!

Me too! They make all outfits look so chic!
All of that food looks amazing! And I am so proud of how you did all of that make up yourself! You totally look like Rosie the Riveter…I had to do a double take!
Aw haha, you’re too sweet!
Ahh I’m excited for all these things too!! ?
It’s my favorite season!
Yes! All the scarves and all the boots!
Exactly! 🙂
I love me some summer, but Fall is another favorite of mine (winter? you can go away). The fashion and weather are the absolute BEST, and there’s nothing better than warm-but-not-humid days and cool nights. Oh, and my birthday in October – that’s good, too 🙂
Haha, I like the winter if I’m off work, have absolutely nothing to do, and no reason to leave the house and I can just watch the beautiful snow fall and play in it with my boys, but then after a couple days I’m over it..lol and yes a fall birthday! 🙂
On point with all these fall items. Great post!
Thanks Crystal!
So excited for fall! Those boots with bows are so amazing! I need to get some new boots soon.
Aren’t they the cutest? I’m on the hunt now to find some!
YES to all of it! Although I don’t really do much for Halloween. Fall is just my fav!
I just like doing simple, fun stuff with the kids for Halloween, and creating traditions! 🙂
Yesss give me all the blanket scarves, boots, and gameday eats of course! So good!
Game day foods are the best! 🙂
Those boots are amazing! I love fall
Aren’t they so cute?!
Blanket scarves! Yes! I’m obsessed with these 🙂

Rightly so! They’re so cute and cozy!
Your new role sounds fabulous!!! It always feels good to help others and local businesses in a community.
I love fall and fall fashion is my favorite. Too bad it is still in the 90’s here and we wont be whipping out anything fall just yet. Those boots are just fabulous!!! Both pairs! I dont have a blanket scarf yet but I think I might get one this year.
Thanks! Blanket scarves are so soft and cozy and I swear they make any outfit instantly look cuter lol.
I have that blanket scarf and I’ve been dying to wear it! Boots, the food, the layers… I love it all! I wish it could last as long as winter!

You’re face in all the make up/halloween looks – perfection! You can pull it all off!!!
I bought blanket scarves for all the girls in my life one christmas & so mad I never got myself one!
Aw thank-you!! & I’ve totally did that before, but sometimes you gotta treat yourself too! 🙂 & Blanket scarves are soo cozy!
You are so cute, Cara, I swear you should be a make up artist. Isn’t fall just the best? I cannot get enough of it I’m so scared it’s going to fast. I love all your obsessions and I echo them completely! That football pepperoni has been on my list to make for a long time, I think this is the season!
Aw thanks Andrea! You sure know how to make someone’s day! There’s something about the Fall season..I just love it! Let me know if you make the pepperoni football, I want to give it a try too! 🙂
This post is so wonderful, Cara! It got me in the spirit for the season! I personally love blanket scarves, pumpkin desserts, fall decor and fall activities!
Thanks Kiara! Pumpkin desserts are a close second after caramel apple desserts for me! 🙂
I adore blanket scarves! But the thigh high boot trend is just too much for me! haha

Haha, I pair mine with dresses so it’s not…scandalous looking 😉
I am so ready for all of these things! The food! All the food! Could be my pregnancy talking…. haha
Haha completely understandable! 🙂
All things that get me excited for Fall as well, especially boots and game day food! Best of luck with your event!
Game day food is the best! 😉 Thank-you!
I LOVE the blanket scarves! And all things apple…great ideas!
I want to make the cheesecake one it looks delicious!
That pepperoni cheeseball looks DELISH! And how amazing that your work is putting on that event for the community – such a great thing for people in need <3

Thank-you! I’m hoping we see a great turnout! 🙂
I love all of your Halloween make-up…super cute! That football with the pepperoni looks like such a fun game day food. I love those boots with the ties in the back, and I NEED a blanket scarf. So cozy! Best of luck with your fundraising!
Thank-you! I wish I could find those boots, the little bow ties are adorable! 🙂
Everything about this post makes me happy!!
Thanks Jessi!
Scarves in general are my current fall obsession and blanket scarves are next on my list. There are so many beautiful ones and I want to buy them all lol. That dress up makeup is cute especially the last one. I saw a costume at Walmart the other day that would be perfect with that Bambi makeup❤
It was my favorite look from last Halloween! So fun to create! 🙂
Love all your fall picks from outfit to food and easy Halloween costumes. Good luck on your fund raising.
Thank-you Candy!
I love the blanket scarf and pumpkins too! I live in Dallas and it never really gets to be Fall like here until maybe January! Sometimes we skip Fall and winter and go right into Spring!
Blanket scarves are so cozy!
I am SO excited for fall, I just wish we’d hurry up and get some fall weather. Can we talk about how talented you are with makeup?! Seriously obsessed with how cute your Bambi makeup is! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
It was a little cooler today, which was nice! And thank-you so much! It was a fun look to create last year! 🙂
I’m super sad that summer is ending, as it is my favorite season. However, I did smile at your mentioning of boots and game day food. It’s great to have football back and cheer on my Dallas Cowboys weekly. 😉
