I feel like I've been waiting so long for fall. California weather sorta sucks. I wake up and feel like it's gonna be cold because it's so foggy I can barely see the trees outside my window, and it ALWAYS burns off and I end up sweating like a madwoman by the end of the day. Lately it's been STAYING cold (ish) though and I'm just getting so pumped for fall. Eryn did a fall post a little while ago, and I got inspired by that and started a fall folder. I also have been doing a lot of art that totally feels fall-y to me and works with all these photos perfectly. (They're all from my newest journal)
Lines
So there are a few different aesthetics I've been diggin this fall. First is this like black and white and nude sort of look. Black and white stripes or geometric patterns and little doodles.

Mustard Yellow Pressed Flowers
This is supposed to lead into the next colour scheme/over all aesthetic. I've been really into mustard yellow these days. Probably because it's fall. I saw a chunky knit circle scarf in mustard yellow and could hardly keep myself from dropping the $50 for the the amount of fall that was happening in one article of clothing. Is it weird that I've been digging sunflowers/all pressed flowers in fall?
Another journal entry. The left post-it's drawing was inspired by Claire

Plants
I can't remember the name of this green but the green in the image below is like SO fall to me. It's sorta grey-ish green. That paired with light nudes and doodles and plants.
Gemma's Sketchbook (aka my dreams)
I really dig the tennis shoes with nice clothes and like these tight black jeans/I dig the pleated skirt+tennies look. also (Source) (kind of the source, they don't take the photos apparently and they didn't have a real source so that will have to do for now. If anyone knows the real source lemme know)
