Fall is the best season.  Fact.  Some of the world’s best things are only available/in style during fall, which although it’s kind of upsetting we can’t get them all year round, makes them all the more special.  I know I’m not the only one who counts down the months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds until fall.  Here are some things that cause me and others to do so.

  1. Pumpkin Shaped Reese’s– Whoever says that these are the same as the normal Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups is playing.  Reese’s somehow perfectly masters the peanut butter to chocolate ratio all in one cute, satisfying pumpkin shape.  Because of this, you will likely catch me stocking up on these as soon as fall arrives and they hit the supermarkets.  

  2. Dark Lipsticks– As the leaves turn darker, so does my lipstick.  My top 3 include Lorac Alter Ego Lipstick in the shade Dominatrix, L’Oreal Infallible 2-Step Lip Color in Neverending Nutmeg, and Kat Von D Lovecraft.  *Disclaimer: I am very pale, therefore, what’s dark on me may not be dark on you. 

  3. Starbucks Caramel Apple Spice– It’s fall in a mug y’all.  If you’re like me and are not coffee’s biggest fan, then have no fear, your fall drink is here!

  4. Logo Blankets– Nothing feels more like fall than curling up with a soft blanket.  I was gifted a Clemson one for my graduation party made by the brand Logo, and I have never been more content with a blanket.  I highly recommend you find one with your school’s logo.

  5. BooBerry Cereal– The Halloween cereals are more of the reason I consume so much sugar in the fall months than candy is.  After trying each one, I have concluded that they are all oh so scrumptious in addition to their adorably punny names, but my favorite is BooBerry.  

  6. Pumpkin Pie ChapStick- When fall hits, lips dry out.  What better way to fix the problem than with lip balm that smells like pumpkin pie?  I love to stock up so I can enjoy the sensation of my favorite fall dessert all year round.
