The new autumn equinox was August 27th, also known as the day pumpkin spice lattes returned and I started lighting my fall candles again!
Trying to refrain from showing my obnoxious love for the season has already failed despite the sweltering heat we’re stuck in.
The way I see it, since we only really get about two months of peak fall, I’m taking in as much of it as I can! The best way to give yourself a happy girl fall is to partake in every aspect of the season and appreciating that certain things are basic for a good reason (who doesn’t love a good pumpkin spice latte?)
