An afternoon spent with friends is time well spent~
To my surprise, October has been an incredibly busy month for me. I haven’t had the time I would have liked to enjoy fall activities and spend time outside as much as I would have liked. However, this past Sunday, my friends and I decided to spend some quality fall time together by picking out some pumpkins at the local nursery!
The weather was nice, but a bit overcast which really set the fall mood. It was a good day to bust out a light sweater and some boots! Here was my outfit of the day:
Sweater // Khols
Jeans // Target (Wild Fable Collection)
Jacket // Forever 21
Boots // DSW
I love the fall tones in this outfit and my sweater reminds me vaguely of Freddy Krueger which I enjoy because Halloween is a holiday that deserves to be celebrated all month long!
When I was pumpkin picking I picked out 3 little gourds. I got one medium sized pumpkin, one “baseball pumpkin” and a small white gourd which only cost me about $8 total so I view that as a win. Cute decor that doesn’t break the bank is a must during the fall!
After, we headed back to my friend Angie’s house to paint our pumpkins. I like the look of unpainted pumpkins so I kept the painting to a minimum and just painted a little design around my “baseball pumpkin”. (I forgot to take a good picture of the finished product so here is a picture of the pumpkin with my apple cider today in a photo I took for my Instagram @jessofearth).
After painting, my friends Kristin and Jimmy had to head home, so Angie and I grabbed some dinner then came back to her house for a relaxing fire. Angie’s backyard is so cute with the hanging lights and the cozy fire pit. She snapped some cute pictures of me while I roasted marshmallows because she said they would look cute on my blog…and I agree entirely, haha!
Overall, a relaxing fall day is something I really needed and I hope to have more days like it throughout the remainder of October and November!
What is your ideal fall day like?

Nice casual look for fall. You reminds me of the fall season though we are still warm here.
