The shift in seasons signifies so much more than just a change in weather. Seasonal changes are reflections of life and the necessary cycles that come with it. In Fall, we celebrate new beginnings with the start of the school year. We celebrate friends and family with the coming of the holidays. We celebrate abundance with the autumn harvest. We celebrate the earth as she begins her slow descent into the frozen hibernation of the Winter months whereby rest is granted in preparation for new life to emerge in Spring.

Every season is significant in its own special way. Every season is important in the endless cycle of life. The seasons serve as reminders that the natural give and take of the Earth and the Universe is required to maintain perfect harmony. In a world filled with unexpected surprises at every turn, the change of the seasons is one thing that we are guaranteed. We know it is coming, we can rely on the changes, we know what to expect, and it never fails us. There is certain comfort in that knowledge. What has always been will always be.

Most of us have a favorite season. For me, it is Fall. There is something about it that ignites a sentimentality that fills me with nostalgia and forces a new introspection that I may have neglected during the unstructured days of Summer. I feel romantic and loved. I feel revived and energized. I want to breathe in the cool crisp air and sit by outdoor fires sipping hot apple cider while I reflect on what once was, what is, and what is still to come.

With the arrival of the Fall Equinox, I feel more connected to the Earth and the Universe every single year. There is a certain beauty in death, in the peaceful fading away of the vibrant shades of Summer as they make way for the quiet depth of something beautiful coming to an end. And aren’t the endings usually the parts that we await with bated breath, anxious to see what is to come, curious about the outcome of an intense and fruitful journey? We always yearn for the ending. And when Fall arrivals, that is when we get a glimpse of the astonishing grace of things coming full circle.

Fall is a splendid time of year with its richness and glory, with the intensity of the colors that appear in Nature, with the fresh crispness in the air, with the sweet aroma of comfort foods simmering in the kitchen. It simply makes me feel wonderful.

So with the Fall Equinox just 4 days away, Monica and I have decided to share our very own twists on Fall fashion. I live in northern New York State where the coolness of Autumn leads very quickly to a deep freeze long before the Winter Equinox is even on our radar. Monica is in Florida where the temperatures are much more mild. And so you are getting two very different ideas for styling Fall Fashion.

I know that tie dye is more often perceived as a Summer print, but I was drawn to the deep purples and browns in this Drawstring Tie Dye Kangaroo Pocket Hoodie from Rosegal as a great addition to my Autumn wardrobe. I recently shared the pink and turquoise version of this hoodie which will be the perfect tie dye print for all seasons.
