Gear Up For The Fall

With the summer coming to a close we start to prepare ourselves for the fall season. In 2022, the first day of fall is on Thursday, September 22. This date only applies to the people who live in the Northern Hemisphere.

What is the most important part of the fall season? Probably the holidays that come with it including many of our favorites Halloween and Thanksgiving. Other holidays that are celebrated during the fall season are Columbus Day and Veteran’s Day. Kick off the fall season with this collection of Halloween Ideas.

Decorations

When it comes down to Halloween many people think a costume is all that you need for the celebration. Maybe adding a bit of makeup to create a Halloween look will do the trick. While that may be true for some, that’s not necessarily how to properly get in the holiday spirit. Decorations bring the fall holidays to life. (Maybe not, if we intend to be scary.) Here is a collection of my favorite holiday decor.

Costumes

What would you say was your favorite part about Halloween besides getting candy? If you are anything like me of course it would be the costumes during the festivities. Whether it be scary or sweet it’s always a treat! Many people spend all year deciding what they want to be for Halloween.

You can randomly choose a costume or you can do diligent planning for the look. People who LOOOVE the Holiday definitely tend to go way over the top in this area for good reason. I will NOT complain. The most popular costumes for pets are the pumpkin, followed by the hot dog, and the bumble bee in third place. Here is a collection of my favorite costumes.

Movies

Not sure what movies to watch this fall? Well, hold tight to your seats this year because some of these movies will be FRIGHTENING. If your favorite part of the holiday season is scary movies be sure to check the list below. Usually, there will be a “countdown to Halloween” special playing on most television networks during that time this fall.

The TV channel Freeform (dating back to when it was known as Fox Family) annually presented its special “13 Nights of Halloween” with specialized Halloween episodes of regularly scheduled programs. This was to include Halloween specials and movies to play for the 13 nights leading up to October 31.

Treats

Popcorn or candy? Such a hard decision to make during this time. While we ought not to give the kids candy we take them to go trick o treating. If you are one of the parents who prefer not to give their children sweets (Especially due to age limits) The collection below is a great alternative. Fruits and other nutritional snacks can be decorated and revamped for a special spooky Halloween treat.

Drinks

Welcome guests young and old this Halloween with a cup “Bloove”. Use this time to test out different flavors of drinks. Experiment with drink toppers, silly straws, and creepy cups. This will be the perfect timing to get those creative juices flowing. The most popular drink during the season, in my opinion, would be the “Bloody Mary”.

It is the most thought about for its color but I would prefer to have something a bit more creative. With that being said I will also say that most drinks that are “Over the top” May not taste the best. This is probably due to the fact that many people are more concerned about using the drinks as a prop or decorations and not necessarily as a beverage.

Nails

You can never get enough of good nail polish or nail design for that matter. But who doesn’t love Halloween nail art? I know I sure do. This is always the most fun to do and a great way to finish off your Halloween look. Even if you aren’t all in with the costume or decorations, Halloween nails will be a good way to show that you are at least trying to get into the spirit of things. Some of my favorite designs are in the collection linked below. I am totally OBSESSED, sounds pretty creepy, doesn’t it?

Makeup

Okay, so we have our homes, offices, and cars decorated. Already picked out our Halloween costumes, set the DVR, and made some treats. Poured ourselves a liquid death and hammered at our nails. Now last but not least we need to complete our holiday face. This collection of ideas will give you some inspiration to put your face on or leave it off. (Insert laugh here)
