The Ultimate Fall Prep Guide

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at SBU chapter.

It’s that time of year again! I can almost smell the pumpkin spice lattes in the air as the final days of September come to an end. As classes are now in full swing, it’s important to take some time for yourself and enjoy the upcoming season! With fall right around the corner, I am here to share with you my tips to make sure your fall season is full of Instagram worthy content! From taking the perfect candid pics with friends at the pumpkin farm, to snuggling up on the couch watching “Halloweentown,” I’ll be your guide to having a fun filled fall season! 

 

1. Grab some gal pals and go apple picking!

This is one of my favorite things to do during fall. Not only do you get to take home some delicious apples, but the pics come out #soartsy.

 

2. Halloween movie marathon.

If you’re like me and scary movies are not your thang, the “Halloweentown” series and “Hocus Pocus” are my go-to favorites.

 

3. Bake some pumpkin treats!

Whether it be pumpkin cookies, roasted pumpkin seeds, or cupcakes that look like pumpkins, take full advantage of your cheat day and enjoy.

 

4. Go to a haunted house.

This typically isn’t my favorite activity (see # 2), but grabbing a bunch of friends and getting scared out of your wits together is always a good time.

 

5. Decorate your home.

Pumpkin shaped pillows, yummy apple scented candles. You’re welcome.

 

6. Invest in fall must-have trends.

This season is all about mixing deep colors and cozy sweaters. Who wouldn’t want that? Get creative and have fun with fall fashion!
