Hiking has overtime become one of my favorite activities. It's especially my favorite during the fall. Nothing beats an afternoon of walking through the woods with all the colorful trees. Plus add in the extra exercise your getting and your golden!

These pictures were taken back in September when the leaves had just started changing colors. However, I'm sure now the leaves would have been much more beautiful. The weather was this perfect combination of warm sunshine, but chilly enough to get away with wearing a light sweater. This is one of my favorite Free People sweaters with its uneven hemline, and open back knot detail. I find it to be super feminine and fun to wear with different types of bra's underneath. It's fun to layer with bralettes that have lacy, multiple straps, and cut out details. The bralette I'm wearing is also by Free People and has a high neckline in the front and cut out pattern on the front and the back. 

I put my hair into double fishtail braids around the crown of my head, and combined them into one long fishtail braid down my back. I then decided to add another smaller fishtail braid down one side of my hair for an extra braided detail. This helped keep my hair out of my face during my hike, but also provided as a cute hairstyle for the rest of the day. 

Apple picking is an activity that always gets me fall ready. Nothing screams fall to me than some fresh apples, apple cider, cider donuts, and of course pumpkins! 

When I was growing up we used to visit an apple orchard ever year to pick apples and get pumpkins. My favorite memory of the farm was taking a tractor hayride over to the pumpkin patch to pick out the perfect pumpkins to carve. 

This year, I decided to check out a different local apple orchard, which turned out to be just as great! I picked all types of apples including Golden Delicious, McIntosh, Cortland, Empire, Red, and more. My mom and I ended up using some of the apples to make a deliscious caramel apple crumble desert (which didn't last long lol).

When you first arrive you need to purchase your bag for collecting apples, and then you are ready to take the tractor ride up into the orchard. The ride up was short, but had some great views as your are heading up a mountain. Once you arrive to the location where apples are ripe and ready to picked, you are free to explore the orchard and collect as many apples as your bag can hold. 

Nothing was better than being able to bite right into an apple I had just picked from the trees. They tasted so fresh and sweet. 

Since the weather was pretty warm this day, I kept my outfit pretty casual. Walking along dirt paths and in-between tress I waned to make sure I had comfortable shoes on and ones that I wouldn't mind if they got a little dirty. I wore these slip on calf hair leopard sneakers, which were prefect for walking all day, but also added a fun texture and print to my otherwise plain outfit.

There is no better time of year than now. The weather has finally started to cool off, but still remains in the low 70's/high 60's, which is perfect for transitioning your summer wardrobe into fall.

One of my favorite style tips for the fall is layering using a flannel. Flannels are a fall must with all the different ways they can be worn. I love to simply tie a flannel around my waist to recreate that 90's grunge trend. The great thing about wearing a flannel around your waist is if you get cold, as I usually do, you can just throw it on as a cardigan and still have a complete outfit. I paired this look with an edgy metal choker to complete the 90's vibe. A leather jacket can also be worn for cooler days.

I paired the flannel with some ripped up jeans, and a graphic tee. I love Chaser's tee's, they are always super soft and comfy. This outfit was put together with such simple basics, but feels as though a lot of effort was put into it.
