Fall About Me

hi beauties!

Again, a little later than normal posting....so annoying. If you follow me on snapchat {lindsaymclovin} then you know that I've had computer problems...literally second morning this week. ANYWAYS.....I saw this idea on my friend's blog, See You In A Porridge and it was so fun {#thankskristen}! PS. how cute is the name?! #fallaboutme

FAVORITE CANDLE SCENT-
I'm probably the only blogger that hasn't tried any bath and body works candles so that is a total FAIL but my favorite is actual Apple Cinnamon from Glade {which you can purchase at your local supermarket, you're welcome}.


BEST FRAGRANCE FOR FALL-
 I love all things Betsey Johnson when it comes to perfume and that normally doesn't change with the seasons. If it's a day event {work, gym, etc} than I pick her original Betsey Johnson and if it's a night event {dates normally} I go with Betsey Johnson Too Too.



BEVERAGE OF CHOICE {COFFEE, TEA, HOT CHOCOLATE}-
Well for one, if I am treating myself in the fall I always get the Caramel Apple Cider from Starbucks, if ya haven't tried it welll what are you waiting for?! But I love all things hot so I'll drink all the choices....I prefer coffee though!



FAVORITE THANKSGIVING FOOD-
Y'all Tripp and I have really been trying to eat better/less so we are constantly saying how we can't wait for Thanksgiving so we can eat good food #wesosad. I could eat dressing EVERYDAY so easily that would be my fav. I also love sweet potato casserole!
 

WHAT IS THE BEST FALL MEMORY YOU HAVE?-
 Growing up, my mom made thanksgiving a HUGE deal for my brother and me. We would wake up, drink coffee/cider/hot chocolate and watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, then eat dinner that afternoon and that night the 3 of us would always put up the tree while a Christmas show or movie was on the tv. SERIOUSLY one of my favorite memories of all time. I hope Tripp and I can make traditions like that even though we don't have kids yet.


FAVORITE TYPE OF PIE?-
Is all an option?! Fall pies are the BEST! Pumpkin, Sweet Potato, Apple....NOMZ.


MOST WORN SWEATER?-
 It's hard for me to find a sweater I love because they all feel pretty itchy to me. I do love a semi-lightweight one that is off the shoulder I purchased from alloy years ago but they bring it back every year because it is kindof a basic piece.


WHAT IS AUTUMN LIKE WHERE YOU LIVE?
45-50 degrees in the morning and 80 by midday. THE WORST! How am I supposed to dress for that?!


FOOTBALL GAMES OR JUMPING IN LEAF PILES?!
Y'all I am a coach's wife....do I have a choice?! Football Games! {especially when I get to see the handsome coach after the game :))

WHAT SONG GETS YOU IN THE FALL SPIRIT?
EASY!

WHAT MAKEUP TREND- DARK LIPS OR WINGED LINER?!
Winged liner allllllll dayyyy, everyyyyy day!

IS PUMPKIN SPICE WORTH THE HYPE?-
I do love some pumpkin flavoring and my favorite is actually the creamer I have in my fridge so yay for not spending lots at starbucks this season!

FAVORITE FALL TV SHOW?!-
Well last year it was American Horror Story but I couldn't get into this year....{too scary and weird}.
So I hate to say it because it's a guilty pleasure but probably Dancing with the Stars...

COMBAT BOOTS OR UGGS?-
UH BOTH! I wore combat boots to my college graduation and wanted to wear them under my wedding dress but no one else was really on board....then in the winter it's hard to get me out of uggs because I am normally always freezing!

SKINNY JEANS OR LEGGINGS?-
EASY, again! Leggings, skinny jeans doesn't have enough give for me yet ha!

HALLOWEEN- YAY OR NAY?!
YAY all the way! Did you catch my post yesterday?! && this year I have our living room all decorated which was so fun!


WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT BLACK FRIDAY?
Uh, I'll see you on cyber monday! #blackfridayisnotforthisgal

FALL MORNINGS OR EVENINGS?
EVENINGS! It gets darker early and you can get a fire goingggg and really enjoy it!

ONE FALL 2015 TREND YOU'RE LOVING?
FELT HATS! LOVE love love love love love love! Be expecting lots of pictures during cold weather of me and my hat!


YOU MADE IT! Hope you guys enjoyed it, it was a lot of fun to write! happy fall, y'all!

  1. This is such a fun post, I've seen it around and might have to give it a go as well. I'm in the market for a new fall scent I'll have to give Betsey a try. And yum, Thanksgiving food, gimme it ALLL! Your memories sounds so wonderful, we wait a week to do the tree but love watching some Christmas on Thanksgiving.

    You should do an eye liner tutorial!!!

  2. What a fun post! I love Glade candles! I'll be sure to check out the apple cinnamon one.
    I totally understand the "fall" weather trends here in the South. I force myself to wear long sleeves on Thanksgiving Day because short sleeves just doesn't feel right!

  6. Drinking a cup of coffee with that pumpkin spice creamer in it right now :) so much better than $6/cup at Starbucks! But I will swing by there for a caramel apple spice because they are INSANELY good. And maybe it's better that you haven't fallen prey to the BBW candle addiction because it is an expensive habit haha! Once you go 3-wick, you'll never go back!

  8. YES to all of this! I LOVE your family's Thanksgiving tradition growing up! That's sort of what we do to a T except we do the tree on Friday. SO much fun!

  9. This is so cute! I think my favorite Thanksgiving dish is the green bean casserole. YUM. Can I have it now...? I'm not much into hot tea, so i'd choose the coffee too. I feel like there's so much to comment on!!! And definitely BOTH combat boots and uggs. Can't get enough of either!

  12. Oh man I don't like black friday either.. idk if I'm invisible or what but every time I go out for it I get pushed and trampled on. Plus the deals aren't even good unless you're buying a TV or something, and who needs a new TV every year. The weather is the same here.. I never know what to wear!!

    Love this post idea =)
