I can’t do fall without a trip to the apple orchard, so last weekend we drove up to Greenbluff for an afternoon of autumn fun! I always have a list of things I want to do each season, but it seems like unless I specially plan them, time flies and before I know it, it’s over! So this year I’m determined to check off every item on my list, starting with apple picking!
There are a ton of apple orchards in the area, which made choosing one kind of tricky! Luckily I stumbled upon Hidden Acres Orchard, which still had plenty of apples and even a few early pumpkins!
The weather is starting to turn, getting a little chillier and also a little more unpredictable. Since I wasn’t sure if we’d be having summer or fall weather (or a mix of both), I ended up choosing to wear this vest which is one of my fall staples. It’s perfect for in between weather, and even cozier worn over my sweater, which I was thankful for when the breeze picked up!
I was so excited to see that the farm had a few early pumpkins this year! Most of the farms we stopped at were starting their harvest celebrations in a few weeks, and didn’t have their pumpkins out yet. We’re planning a trip to a local pumpkin patch in October, and I literally can’t wait!
The minute we drove up to the orchard, Charlotte spotted a little toy car, and wanted nothing more than to drive herself around. It was so cute, and she had such a blast! It was crazy watching her and remembering our trip to the apple orchard last year when she was so small!

Anyone else feeling especially ready for all things autumn? Fall is definitely my favorite season, but this year I’m way more excited than usual! I can’t wait to get our house all decorated in pumpkin and harvest decor, take out the warm cozy blankets and bake some pumpkin goodies! (By the way, for all the fall feels, check out my pumpkin spice latte cupcake recipe!)
Today I’ve rounded up some of my favorite fall decor pieces for this year. I’m so excited to share them with you, and hopefully spread some fall frenzy! So grab some hot apple cider, cozy up, and let’s dive right in!
These little mini pumpkins are so cute! I can’t wait to set these up as a sweet and easy centerpiece on our table this fall. This year I’ve been loving the dusty blue pumpkin trend, so I think this orange, cream and blue pumpkin trio is perfect.
I love a good fall wreath, and this one is especially cute! It’s so fun and whimsical, and I love the colors of the berries against the leaves. If nothing else, I at least try to get a wreath up for each season because I think they make homes look that much more inviting. You might have caught on my Instagram stories that I accidentally left our Christmas wreath up until July, so I’m being extra sure to get my summer wreath replaced with this fall one haha!
These fall leaf plates give me all the warm fuzzy fall feels! I love adding seasonal salad plates to my tablescapes. They’re easy to put on top of my usual dinner plates, but don’t take much room to store during the off-season. Also, how cute would these look on the table with those mini pumpkins above??
Pillows are such an easy and fun way to add a little fall spirit to the home. I’ve been a little obsessed with buffalo check lately, and I love this white and grey buffalo check pillow! Of course I’m also game for anything pumpkin, so this adorable pumpkin pillow is pretty hard to pass up too, and they would look so perfect together!
I’m a sucker for Pendleton blankets. They are such high quality, and they make the prettiest designs. These blankets really do last a lifetime (my parents have some of these blankets and we cuddled in them my entire childhood, and still do!). Since they’re more of an investment item for me, I’m personally choosing this design because it’s so classic and will never go out of style! But you guys, I just came across this Harry Potter collection on their site, and I literally squealed out loud. So someone please tell my husband this blanket is what I want for my birthday haha! I’m dying!

Summer is only just beginning to come to an end, and I’m already so excited for Fall! The leaves changing, football games, hot drinks (I’m looking at you pumpkin spice latte!).
Sometimes dressing for season transitions can be tricky, since the weather can be a bit of a crap shoot and it’s easy to judge wrong and end up freezing or boiling!
That’s why I was so excited to see this jacket the other day at Old Navy. It’s the perfect lightweight jacket for this time of year, and of course I love that it’s pink! It also comes in tons of other colors for anyone who’s not as into pink as me haha!
I have a good friend who calls this type of jacket an “adventure jacket”, because it’s the kind of coat you grab when you don’t know what awaits you that day. I really love that, and I’ve totally adopted the phrase!
Where we live our days are still pretty warm, but we’ve had some cooler and rainy days lately, so this jacket has already really come in handy.
