Fall Mood

Shop the lipstick in ‘rebel’. Shop the necklace. Shop the top.

Fall is my favorite. It’s seriously a whole mood.

I know, I know. I just sent your mind spiraling with thoughts of PSLs and apple scented candles. However, I am happy to report that isn’t what I mean— ha! Give me an iced coffee or a matcha any day. Also, the smell of super sweet candles gives me headaches. [my favorite candle scents are here, here, and here]

What I really love about fall is the crisp chill in the air that feels like a fresh start, the chance to pull out my favorite jackets, and experiencing more outdoor activities without the threat of Memphis heat.

   Shop the sunnies. Shop the bag in ‘moss’. Shop the denim.

The shorter days and lower temps have also left me in a reflective mood. Some thoughts that have been constantly popping into my mind:

1. You’ve got this!

2. Comparison kills creativity.

3. YOU. ARE. WORTH. IT.

4. Show yourself some grace.

5. Do more of what makes you happy!
