It’s no secret I love Fall, even though here in Puerto Rico it feels like Summer all year around. But I really love the idea of Fall, the colors, the makeup, Halloween and Thanksgiving (which for me is the beginning of the Christmas season). There are a couple of things I consider that are Fall essentials and I have to have every year once September rolls around, although this year I was super excited and my Fall season started at the end of August. Now that is officially Fall and to keep my Autumn spirit high, I share with you my must have this season.

Leaves Candle

 

I always have candles and I am obsessed with making my space smell good, but if I don’t burn a Leaves candle of Bath and Body Works is not Fall. Every year I stock up on them every time they go on sale (which is the only time I buy candles). I love the scent, it’s a describe in the BWW website as Crisp Red Apple, Golden Nectar and Warm Clove Spice. I even have a room spray and wallflowers plug ins of the same kind, for me this is the scent of Fall.

Dark Lipsticks

 

I love Fall inspired makeup (I already did one this year, you can see it here), I love dark lipsticks and even more the fact that in this time of year is acceptable to wear a dark eye look with a dark lipstick. I wear dark lipsticks during all the seasons of the year, but in Fall is almost every day. I am still loving Maybelline’s Super Stay Matte Ink Lipsticks and my current favorites are 75 Fighter and 50 Voyager. You will definitely see me rocking them a lot this season.

Hot Chocolate

 

There is nothing that screams Fall like enjoying a cup of hot chocolate (or your favorite hot beverage). Sadly it’s still to hot for me to really enjoy one, so for now I am enjoying my glass of cold chocolate milk, seating in front of my beautifully decorated wall, watching Good Witch on Netflix and feeling festive, but as soon as I can I am doing the switch to hot chocolate.

Candy Corn

 

I know not everyone shares my opinion in this one, but for me, if it’s Fall I have to eat Candy Corn, it’s just necessary. I love them, I could eat them every day during Fall, and not get tired of them, although that is not very healthy. This year I even made them part of the decor and they look so pretty, the only thing is that for it to look pretty I will have to refill it a couple of times during the season (which I already have to do…), because I am constantly graving the candy from the jar. Let me know in the comments what is your go to “Autumn” candy.

Halloween Movies

 

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, and when October comes I make time to watch Halloween movies, but ones that aren’t creepy or scary. My movies have to be family friendly and fun to watch. This year I am looking forward to seeing Hocus Pocus (a classic), Beetlejuice and Halloweentown. The snacks for the movie nights, because in my opinion Halloween movies should be watch at night, will be popcorn, chocolates, and of course, candy corn.

What were your thoughts about my list? Do you have Fall favorites? Is there something you do exclusively this time of year? If you have any other recommendations of essentials I should add to my list, let me know in the comments below.

Never stop dreaming,
