As someone who spends a good amount of their day listening to music, I know the importance of a good playlist. Nothing sets the mood for a new season quite like music, so I’ve decided to compile some of my favorite songs into the ultimate relaxed fall playlist. These songs are perfect when you want to feel that nostalgia that fall always brings with it. With so much happening all at once in college, it can be nice to slow down and take time to cozy up with a cup of coffee and a good playlist and just take time for yourself. These songs always help me get in that mindset, and I’m sure they’ll help you, too.
