A Touch of Southern Grace

Half-Baked Harvest has so many recipes that are so perfect for fall. I love how her dishes always look so rustic and comforting. This soup is one of my most favorite things I have ever made. It is just such a warm, flavorful hug in a bowl. 

Two// Stuffed Peppers

Love the Pioneer woman and this is a recipe of hers I make on repeat. It always makes just the right amount of leftovers and it is the best healthy comfort food dish to have on a cold night. Also, does anyone else have a weird thing about eating beef after seeing so many videos of cows on social media…? That said, I substitute ground turkey (butter ball is my favorite to use) for the beef in this recipe, and it taste so delicious!

Three// Friendsgiving Casserole

This is one of my mom’s favorite dishes; she has been talking about making this since July… and I must agree, it really is very excellent. I feel like creative people are usually creative in more than just one area, and Joanna Gaines has some of the best recipes. Try it, you will fall in love with this dish.

Four// Chicken Pot Pie

I came up with this recipe a few years ago when I couldn’t find a Chicken Pot Pie recipe that I really loved, and this is always such a crowd pleaser. I was going for a southern grandmother type pot pie, and this could not have turned out better. 

Five// Slow Cooker Turkey Chili

Obviously, chili had to make the list. This is another Pioneer Woman recipe (she nails Tex-Mex type dishes), and it is honestly the best chili I have every had. I really like how the ground turkey element makes this dish feel a little lighter and really appreciate that it isn’t overloaded with beans. This is one dish you will find yourself making repeatedly. 

I am so ready for all things plaid and fall. I wore a pleated plaid skirt and an oxford button-up shirt for most of my school career, spent years avoiding both, and now I can’t get enough of either. Plaid is my favorite color during the fall and winter months, and I especially love the plaid that is used for this skirt. Such an easy piece to dress up or down!

Two// New York Puzzle Company Autumnal Puzzle

Puzzles have always been one of my favorite things, especially on cold, overcast days, which Autumn is full of. I have seen so many beautiful fall themed puzzles, but really love this one… I think it is because it reminds me of a 90s Halloween. 

Three// Birkenstock Boston Shearling 

Boston Birkenstock were my uniform shoe my sophomore and junior of high school. They were so comfortable and were definitely worn outside of school clothing. I completely love that they have come back around. I am 100% getting a pair of these to wear with leggings and jeans, and of course an oversized sweater or sweatshirt. 

Four// Staub Ceramic Pumpkin Cocotte

Even if you are not into cooking, this pumpkin shaped pot would be so cute just to use for decoration. I know this is probably such an unpopular opinion, but when it comes to this type of cookware, I honestly prefer Staub to Le Creuset, with the exception of the Dutch oven. For $59 this piece of cookware is basically a steel, and a piece that will last for generations to come.

Five// Barbour x Tuckernuck Light Fawn Miley Quilt Coat

I actually have this exact jacket in the traditional green Barbour color and absolutely love it! If I didn’t have this same jacket in a different colorway, I would have already purchased this one by now (honestly still might). I love the color of the jacket and the lining just takes everything to the next level.

Six// Sarah Flint Runi Flat in Leopard

Love how an elevated Mary Jane style shoe is in for the fall season. They are always comfortable, and I really love how they look with pants of a flowy skirt. The Runi Flat from Sarah Flint is just perfection. These shoes are such an investment that will carry you through multiple seasons. Use code: SARAHFLINT-LAUREN-15 for 15% off your first Sarah Flint purchase

Seven// Swarovski Stilla Attract Stud Earrings

Blue earrings will always have a special place in my heart. Blue is a neutral and honestly think they complement any eye color. I really love Swarovski earrings; they quality is amazing, and I honestly think the price is very reasonable. 

Eight// Von Dornberg Jacket from Embroidered Silk in Green

I came across this company on Instagram over the summer and just fell so hard for their classic styles and tailored looks. This is by far, one of my most favorite blazers I have ever seen. The contrasting colors and the buttons just give it such a special look, and of course, the small bow detail in the back is such a strong selling point for me. 

Nine// Hill House Home Mira Dress

Hill House Fall collections are always a favorite of mine. I really love how they have taken the classic shirt dress to the next level with the simple addition of a tastefully added smocked detail.

Ten// Cashmere Cable-Knit Cricket Sweaters

There are definitely seasons where this style of sweater is more popular than other seasons, but it will always be a classic staple in my book. I really like the boxy fit of this one and the fact that it is made out of a really soft cashmere

Eleven// Veronica Beard

I am absolutely obsessed with all things Veronica Beard lately, and I have seen these shoes everywhere. This color is so perfect for fall and I really appreciate the more polished look they have about them for sneakers.

Twelve// Sezane Thais Jacket

This mohair jacket is just stunning. The tortoiseshell buttons paired with the different shades of browns and creamy whites is a fall dream come to life. 

Thirteen// Julisk Country Estate Flint Dinner Plate Main House

Juliska plates are always so timeless, and this print and shade of brown is just too perfect for the fall season. 

Fourteen// David Yurman Madison Chain Bracelet

I feel like a much more elevated version of the 2013 arm party has come back. I love the stacked bracelet look and this is such a great piece to wear on its own, stack with other bracelets or a watch! 

Fifteen// Anthropologie Icon Holiday Taper Candles

I always complain about how early store debut their holiday items, but I am also part of the problem… The little red bow details on these candles are so feminine and such a cute addition to any holiday tablescape

Sixteen// Dyson Special Edition Airwrap, i.d., Multi-Styler, Straight + Wavy

I have yet to try any of the Dyson hair products… I have naturally curly hair and am concerned if their products would actually work on my hair… However, I am very tempted to give it a go, and this new colorway might push my decision over the edge.

Seventeen// Lake Pima Short Robe in Seaport Stripe

LAKE is one of my most favorite pajama and lounge wear companies. I really love this deep blue they have come out with for the Fall. Plus, everyone needs at least one robe during the fall and winter months 

One// Barbour x Tuckernuck

Honestly think that Barbour and Tuckernuck should do a collab every fall. This collection is such a match made in Haven. 

Two// Anne Hathawy’s Fall

Who doesn’t love Anne Hathaway? She seems like someone that would be everyone’s best friend. Her fall in The Princess Diaries was unscripted and completely charming. She just repeated a similar unscripted moment during the filming of the Devil Wars Prada 2, and I am so interested to find out if this accidental slip is used in the final cut of the film.

Three// Anthropologie Holiday Shop

I am “that” person. You can never start listening to Christmas music or collecting a few new ornaments too early in the season. Anthropologie just opened their holiday shop online, and it is what Christmas dream are made of. I have only browsed the first few pages and there are already so many things that have made my Christmas Wishlist.

Four// Jenni Kayne Thatcher Crewneck

Obviously, the only thing that can follow the news of a company making their online holiday shop live is the announcement of the most perfect fair isle sweater. Fair warning, once you wear a Jenni Kayne sweater there is no turning back. These are seriously the best sweaters.

Five// Becca Bloom

I know I am very late to this party, but I honestly cannot get enough of Becca Bloom. Watching her Tiktok and Instagram is like FaceTiming your billionaire best friend. Becca shares her lifestyle, the occasional very good advice, and more. So recommend this account. 

I actually purchased this exact jacket in the olive green and brown colorway back in 2022 during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale and I am still in love with it. This jacket is just such a classic and it is one of my favorite pieces to reach for. 

Two// Veronica Beard Abbas Chore Jacket

I am so obsessed with Veronica Beard lately. If you live in Nashville, you have probably visited their new store at the Hill Center. Full confession: until I saw their pieces in person, I thought there was a chance their things were a bit overhyped, but their quality and style is just so beautiful in person. I really love the color of this jacket and how it has a dresser vibe for a barn style type piece. 

Three// J. Crew Barn Jacket in Plaid Double-Faced Cotton

I saw this jacket in person a few weeks ago, and I am so tempted to invest in a second barn jacket just because this plaid is so beautiful. Amazing quality, style, and the most beautiful plaid. Definitely one of my top picks!

Four// Ralph Lauren Quilted Barn Jacket

Pretty much anything Ralph Lauren does is just an instant classic. This is really a true barn jacket with the boxier cut and length. If you are a traditionalist, then this jacket is for you.

Five// Ralph Lauren Short Quilted Barn Jacket

This jacket is a bit shorter and is trimmer than the first Ralph Lauren coat. Honestly, this one would probably be more flattering to one’s waistline if you are going for a more fitted look. 

Six// Rag & Bone Cassidy Cotton Jacket

Rag & Bone sweaters and outerwear is just always so on point. Love how they paired gold buttons with the deep brown material and suede collar.

Seven// Ralph Lauren Cotton Utility Jacket

What can I say… Ralph Lauren has a strong jacket game this year. I love how this jacket has such a 90s era barn jacket feel to it with the corduroy collar and the shade of khaki fabric they chose for this piece.

Eight// SANDRO Check Coat with Velvet Collar

Plaids will always have such a special place in my heart. Is there anything more classic than a plaid jacket for fall… The velvet collar and the gold buttons just really brings this piece to the next level!

Meg Ryan is like the queen of autumn movies/90s romcoms. Honestly, I am so loving the 90s aesthetic that is currently trying to be revived. To be fair, this will always be my most favorite movie, regardless of the season. I saw this movie for the first time when I was in the sixth grade and have been in love with it ever since.

Two// When Harry Met Salley 

Believe it or not, up until about three years ago I had never seen this movie. It is such a classic and almost criminal that I waited so long to watch it, but it completely lived up to the hype. If you are a hopeless romantic or in a period of your life where you are holding out for a love you deserve, then this movie is most definitely for you. Plus, the fall fashion in this film is so iconic.

Three// Practical Magic

I love how movies that were made twenty plus years ago are now randomly having very delayed sequels made. I saw the other day that a sequel to Practical Magic is being made, and all I can say is, please, let this be true! This movie is just like a 90s fall mood bottled in the form of a film. Love the storyline, plus, has Sandra Bullock ever been in a movie that isn’t completely excellent…

Four// Hocus Pocus

Is it just me, or did Disney make some pretty scarry movies for children… Confession, some parts of this movie still scare me a little… I still love this movie and could not imagine going a fall season without watching it at least three times. 

Five// Sleepless in Seattle 

Obviously had to end this round-up with one more iconic Meg Ryan movie. I feel like there are so many parts of this movie that are so relatable, and I love her hair and some of the clothes she still wears in this movie. Some of the coats from the 90s were just so on point and so timeless… I would 100% wear the outfit Meg Ryan wore in the closing scene of this movie, hair and everything. 

Any style of ballet flats is always a fall obsession of mine. I love how timeless they are and they go with everything so seamlessly. The suede material on this particular pair and the detailed buckle feature makes my fall heart swooning

Two// Zoe Gigi High Rise Skinny Flare

I really love that we are living in a time and age where any style of jeans really goes. I have lived through the low-rise flare jeans era, the straight jean era, and the skinny jeans era. Being a millennial, I have the predictable preference for skinny jeans, but lately my eyes has been going towards the barrel and flare jeans… Really thing this pair would look so cute with a pair of sandals for early fall

Three// La Ligne Marin Sweater

The other night with I was watching ‘With Love, Meghan’, and Meghan Markle was wearing this EXACT sweater and it looked so good in the effortlessly classic way

Four// Gray Bag in Smooth Chocolate

I have seen this bag shape and I really love it for something different. I saw this bag in person last week and really love the rich brown color and the price point is really reasonably for the quality

Five// Sezane Othello Cardigan

Sezane cardigans are an obsession of mine. I just love all of the colors and styles they offer and they are just such a wardrobe staple.

Six// Khaki Feliana Dress

I really love how long dresses and skirts are in for the fall season. It always makes for such a seamless look when paired with some points and a few simple fall accessories. Really love the details on the bottom of this dress

Seven// Mock-Neck Cable-Knit Long Swing Sweater

This would be such a great fall piece to pair with jeans, leggings, or skirts. Really love how flatter swing sweaters can be

Eight// Chloe Signature Le Parfum

Confession, the deep red ribbon that tied around the top of this bottle is what first drew my eye… and it smells completely wonderful

Nine// YSL Supple Large Shoulder Bag in Suede

I actually looked at this bag in person over the weekend and it made my heart skip a beat… It comes in a large size and a smaller bag. I honestly liked the smaller size better, but the large size would make for such a great everyday fall bag

Ten// DryBar Big Brew Thickening & Lifting Shampoo

Honest opinion: I don’t think there is such a thing as hair that is too thick, so really view this as a shampoo for everyone. I used this for the first time over the weekend and LOVE it! Smells wonderful and I think it does work!

Eleven// KJP Deerfield Creek Plaid Skirt 

I always love the plaid prints that KJP comes out with each fall. This skirt is the perfect plaid, length, and I really like the bow tie. So cute paired with a sweater or button-up

Twelve// Ballstar Suede Glitter Low-Top Sneakers

I love Golden Goose Sneakers. They are definitely an investment piece, but they hold up so well; I acquired my first pair five years ago when I was working with ShopBop and I still have them, wear them, and they look just like new. Really love this color for the fall!

Thirteen// Wrinkle Retreat Light Therapy Face Mask

I have been investigating red light therapy and anti-wrinkle masks… I haven’t pulled the trigger yet… I was investigating this one over the weekend, and so far it is a front runner

Fourteen//Gucci Lipstick

This is one of my favorite lipsticks. The packaging is so beautiful, and the quality of this lipstick is just everything.

Fifteen// Trick-or-Treat Popcorn Bowl

I love fall, but honestly, I’m not a big Halloween person… this popcorn bowl is so festive and so cut, and I really like how the bistro tile style kind of dresses it up a bit

Sixteen// Double-Breasted Trench Coat

I am such a sucker for outerwear. /this plaid trench coat is so perfect and festive for fun. Honestly think this is a trench that would last someone for years to come

Seventeen// Driftwood & Chamomile Classic Candle

A room without flowers, candles, books, and pictures, is a room without a soul, imho. If any of your rooms is in need of a refresh, this is a really great start.

Eighteen// Peter Thomas Roth Instant Eye 

I haven’t tried this yet but have heard this product is a miracle worker. Apparently it is a temporary effect and the effect goes away when you take it off at the end of the day… but if you need to look more rested it hides the dark circles and lifts your eyes.
