Little things to get excited about with the new season.

Vancouver has had its first couple colder days, making us eager to leave the hot summer months behind us. Here are some things we are looking forward to.

Coffee Shops

Finding a cozy café to have warm drinks with a friend. Period.

Reading Books

All the fabulous books that can be read! Nothing is more fun than curling up somewhere with a good book. The smell, and the feeling of turning pages under your fingertips.  Reading stories by dark academia genre authors such as Donna Tart, Madeline Miller, Oscar Wilde, and V.E. Schwab, their imagination takes you away on different adventures.

 

Natural Colours

The ever changing colours of the season are so beautiful and each month is unique to its own. September when everything is still green, and the rain is starting to come down. October changes quickly, from orange to red, and leaves decorating the ground. November with its bare brown trees and the cold blue skies. It’s magical to witness.

The Aesthetics

Fall is a time that creates a very comforting and nostalgic feeling. The different genres such as DracoTok and TwilightCore add to this nostalgia for a lot of us. The beautiful playlists made by people on Spotify are so dreamy and soothing. Great to listen to when transiting home or relaxing in your bedroom.

Candles

Morning, noon, and night! The slow burn of candles adds to any atmosphere for the season.

Fashion

Fashion Month is here, with new trends to be on the lookout for. And it’s also time to layer up! The wool coats and Aran knit sweaters can finally come out of storage! Grab your boots and cozy socks, it’s time to be experimental and practical for the cooler weather.
