The hay field
Helloooooo, October, you dreamboat of a month you! So technically these photos were taken before our trip to Escanaba. We were having all the fall vibes on our drive up to the upper peninsula, so we stopped to snap these pictures! I actually need to blog my trip to Springfield, Ohio first this week before I can truly move onto fall content, but we’re getting close. We’ve been taking some fall photos lately, and I’m really excited to start blogging in a new season. How in the world did I get so behind? 🤣 So bare with me this week as I get caught up, wrap up the summer season, and fully move into October and autumn. But these photos are at least getting us some of those autumn vibes! 🍂
So this black denim jacket from Madewell has definitely been on repeat, and will continue to be on repeat this season. I love it! I was trying to decide between a classic Levi’s denim jacket and this one. I wasn’t sure about the “boxy crop” but I actually love it more because it’s short enough to show off your butt in a pair of jeans. 😉 But yeah, I love the oversized fit — it works with jeans, cute floraly dresses, and I can pair chunky sweaters underneath and still have this jacket fit. So yeah, I’m definitely a fan of this coat if you’re on the hunt for a denim one for the fall/winter season! What’s one thing you’re looking forward to wearing more now that fall is here? Denim jackets + cardigans are def my big thing. I love the part of the year where you can still wear flats (no socks/boots) with jackets. That’s the best.
So yeah — not much else is new in my life! Just trying to get caught up on the blog, wrap up some summer collaborations, and hang on for the ride. Time just goes so fast. I wish there was a way I could just slooowww it down for a second. So I just need to be intentional about how I spend my time. I made an autumn bucket list, and I’m already knocking some things off! I put all the silly and serious goals on there. As silly as — buy an autumn candle, drink a hot cider, buy mums for the porch. To as serious as — hit this financial goal, hit x amount of billable hours at work, get to the gym 3-4x a week, publish at least 8 blog posts a month, etc. You gotta balance the big and little things, and have fun with your goals and to-do lists! Otherwise, you just start to dread them. So yeah, excited for this month! So many fun plans and things I love. 🎃 What are you most looking forward to in October?
