Yesterday afternoon, my housemates and I took a road trip to Greenwich CT, and I couldn’t help but be filled with excitement. There was live music, scarecrows and pumpkins lining the downtown stores, and the crisp fall air- I couldn’t help but be giddy about the unmatchable month of October in Connecticut. Automatically, the aesthetic of quaint bakeries, stores, and coffee shops while walking downtown caused us all to say that we somehow felt like we were experiencing the happy little town of Stars Hollow, in Gilmore Girls.
In honor of Rory- I decided to develop a list of inspirations to live a day like the Gilmores:
1. Wear A Cozy Cable Knit – Rory always seems to wear the cosiest of cable knit sweaters, whether it is over her chilton button up or walking around Stars Hollow.
3. A Pizza Movie Night – Nothing says a school night at the Gilmore’s like a frozen pizza with parmesan cheese- a Lorelia specialty. To make this even better, you could watch Willy Wanka, just like Dean and Rory did on their first date.
4. Dessert Sushi – After Rory’s trip to Japan had been cancelled, Lorelei whipped up dessert sushi to cheer her up, and it honestly sounds like it could be good. This tootsie roll, marshmallow, twizzler combination is definitely something I will have to try.
5. Dance Marathons – I’ve always been envious of the notorious Stars Hollow 24-hour dance marathon, done to raise money for charity. I think any way you can recreate this concept-whether it be attending your school’s dance marathon if they have one, or even just dancing around with your best friends (something my housemates and I do way too often) is the ultimate mood booster.
