Pumpkin patches, cozy fireplaces and cooling temperatures. Oh yes, fall is here in full swing. October, we happily welcome you! Ashley grew up in the Pacific Northwest, and nothing could beat driving down a quiet road, surrounded by multicolored trees of red, orange and gold. Cascading all around and littering the road ahead as leaves colored the streets. Its a bit different here in Arizona. It can feel similar in like Northern Arizona, but down here in the valley, we soak in our cool mornings and wait until November for fall! Not only are we in the spirit for fall, but it’s time for one of Alexis' favorite holidays, HALLOWEEN!!! Growing up the house was decorated for every holiday and Lex has continued that in her own household as well. Pumpkins, skulls, ghouls and more the house is always decked out & Halloween is always celebrated with a driveway fire and movies projected on the garage. To kick of October, we hope you join our next month long style challenge and giveaway!! Plus, did you hear? This month there won't just be one winner! Two prizes means two winners! We thought about the things we love about Fall, and put together a breakdown in hopes that you feel inspired and festive for this wonderful season. We can't wait to see your looks!
