[♥] Fall

I love Autumn! It is hands down my favorite season for many many reasons, not the least of which is my birthday is in September!
Autumn signifies the beginning of school, which I actually look forward to, because it will be my senior year and I get bored of summer and love reconnecting with all the people I didn't see. Also, to reiterate, my birthday! I never really do anything exciting on my birthday, which is a bit of a shame, but hopefully I'll get some money to go shopping!
Shopping.. that brings me to me next love of Autumn. Fall fashions. Best season of the year! The fabrics, the layering, the ability to wear fabulous coats on top of everything, and tights, and hats, and gloves! Really, the list goes on and on.

Clearly, this gives me a good excuse to write down all the fantastic things I want to buy this season:

• Cardigans, especially a long cardigan. I only own two, and I have realized how much I absolutely adore layering cardigans over simple shirts. It's a no fail look for me, kind of the way a tank and blazer combo is.
  
• A pair of knee-high boots. Black, round toe, and they must, must, MUST be high enough! I never buy boots because they are so expensive and they never come far enough up my leg. To me, it feels as though the whole upper part of my calf is unattractively exposed, and the boots always cut off on the widest part. Not attractive. I'd also like them to be slightly loose at the top, so I can wear fun over the knee socks. I know, I'm ridiculously picky!
• I need, need, need a trench coat! Preferably two, actually, one black and one tan. But again, something I am ridiculously picky about and never find. Perhaps this year
• Short skirts. Not miniskirts, short skirts. Miniskirts are always too short on me and I feel uncomfortable sitting down, as I am one one to showcha my chocha, as Winona would say. They need to me only a few inches above the knee, short enough to showcase the fun tights I am desirous to wear
• Colorful shoes! I need (want, desire, LUST AFTER) so many shoes! But I have given myself an ultimatum. If it comes in black and a color, I must buy the color. I own too much black as it is, and want to start to try mixing colors more effectively.
• A colorful winter coat. As all the magazines are touting pastel coats, I find myself lusting after one in a deep jewel tone, like cobalt, eggplant, or emerald. Pastel shades just don't look nice on me, and, put me in anything light colored, and you are asking for it to get completely destroyed. even if I don't eat anything, I attract filth. It's not a pleasant way to live.

And that's about it for my major fall fashion desires. And the main reason I love Autumn. Fall is my favorite season, weather and fashion-wise!
