Fall is a Vibe
I thought that I could turn my back on Fall, but loves Fall is a whole vibe. It is something about this season that brings me back to myself. It’s a time when I release all the heaviness of the year and decompress. Here in Atlanta, it has gotten cooler a lot faster than usual and I am enjoying it. Life has slowed its rhythm and has given us all an opportunity to reflect. I know that there is still a lot of crazy going on but with all these good vibes it has lost its hold.
I’ve lost the urge to fill my free time with mindless TV watching instead I have made time for real reflection. I lose some of that during the summer. The summer just makes me want to be a lot more carefree. But there is a quiet resolve that I feel in the Fall. I feel more deeply in this season and the introverted Cree is in her sweet spot. I know that the days are a lot shorter but that just means they are a lot cozier. And I do not mind that extra hour of sleep that I’m going to get, I am not mad at that! Making time and space for internal work is so important to me and there is no better time than the Fall.
I make the most of this time by journaling and spending a lot of quiet time with God. And not just my morning quiet time per usual, but on weekends I sit in His presence for as long as I need too. It is refreshing and motivational. I get the additional push I need to move through another winter season. Apart from the holidays, winters are typically not enjoyable for me. Cold is not my best friend, to my skin or my emotions. Therefore, I am intentional about going within in the Fall and preparing my spirit for the Winter months.
And we definitely cannot ignore the fact that it is boot season. Boots are this girl’s best friend, and this season’s offerings are fabulous. I’m doing everything I can not to break the bank. I am a shoe girl with all of my heart. Fall fashion is so much fun and multidimensional, a fashion season after my own heart. Follow me on Instagram (cree_in_heels) for a daily dose of my looks. I’m not sure which season has earned my undying love Fall or Spring. But I just can’t shake Fall. Let’s chill and reflect together.
With Love,
Cree
