F&F Top 10 For Fall

 1. Boots. These boots:
















They're cute. They're practical. And they let you channel your inner 70's Roadie wherever you are. Just remember the cardinal rule of boot-sportin': Just like college camping excursions -- the higher, the better! Boots are awesome and we hope they never go out of style.

2. Big Sweaters! Sweaters meet our clothing requirement of the 3C's (and we're not talking about your well endowed cousin with the third nipple) -- cozy, comfy, and cute! Another perk is that during fall you may be starting to put on your winter 'layer' from all the pumpkin pie and stew you'll be eating, and a long, wool sweater will keep people from saying 'when did she get so fat?' and instead have them saying 'when did she get so PHat?' You know what i mean? Its all about the sweater.

3. Tea! Tea is a delicious winter treat because it warms you up and is delicious without being too filling. Sure, the first few weeks of September, all you can think about is a vente pumpkin latte, but by late October you'll be begging for a hot drink that doesn't stick to your teeth and give you a belly ache :)

4.  Home-baked treats! You're going to be wearing big sweaters and drinking tea all day, so go ahead and bake yourself and your friends some delish home made baked goods! Shucks, you can even give some to your neighbors :) they will love you for it. Pumpkin pie, berry tarts, and baked apples are perfect for fall!


5. Warm gloves! they're just so cozy!

6. Infinity Scarf. These scarves are cute, chic, and also practical! A bright color adds pop to any outfit on a dreary day and will keep your neck cozy shmozy.

7. Long Walks. Whether you live in the city or country, long walks are the best in the fall. The crisp air and changing leaves is as good for the soul as it is to stay fit, and even if you dread the thought at first, you'll be happy you went afterward! <3

8. Good Book! Cold weekend mornings are perfect for snuggling up with a great book! The Glass Castle, The Quincunx, and Cold Mountain, are great stories that will keep you enthralled throughout at least one cold autumn month :)

9. Pubs. It's rainy and cold, and it's just not as fun to be outdoors. Go to a pub for a beer and some fried appetizers with your friends! You'll stay warm and smiling all night!


10. Chunky Jewelry! Big, chunky, earthy jewelry is great for fall because it makes a statement tucked between scarves, peet coats, and long sleeves! Earth tones just exude autumn, and deep purples, ambers, golds, and greens, will compliment any bundled beauty!
