Cozy Up with My Fall Essentials

October 24, 2024

In Los Angeles, the mornings are getting darker, colder, and misty as the days get shorter, and while not all of our leaves are changing and the afternoons can heat up, there is something about fall that I love that makes me want to cozy up at home. Whether you’re looking to add a bit of warmth to your space or need ideas for thoughtful gifts, I’ve gathered some of my favorite items that make Fall feel extra special.

 

As I’m trying to achieve more life/work balance, I’ve been spending time wrapped up in all things cozy, so I thought I’d share a few essentials that I’m absolutely loving this season. These are perfect for your home or as gifts to share some warmth with the people you care about. Let’s dive in!

 

 

Plush Robe

 

A plush, warm robe is perfect for lounging on cool Fall mornings.

 

Weighted Blanket   

 

A calming, weighted blanket is ideal for curling up and relaxing, especially during the cooler months.

 

 

Warm Mug Set

 

An insulated or oversized mug for sipping hot cocoa, tea, or coffee on a brisk Fall day.

 

Fall-Themed Tea Sampler

 

Seasonal teas like spiced apple, pumpkin chai, and cinnamon blends are perfect for cozy Fall evenings.

 

 

Throw Pillow Covers

 

Adding a few textured or seasonal-colored pillow covers is an easy (and minimal) way to change the vibe of a room for Fall. While I do not promote changing pillows for seasons as it adds to storage clutter and more work from year to year, some people really do like to switch them out. That’s why my suggestion is to buy pillow covers, as they are easier to store and take up less space than multiple pillows.

 

Knitted Throw Blanket

 

Whether you’re curling up with a book or binge-watching your favorite shows, a cozy throw blanket is a must-have. Plus, I love that this blanket doesn’t pill or shed! I’m always on the lookout for new books and shows to dive into, so please send along your favorites!

 

 

Fluffy Towels

 

There’s nothing like wrapping yourself in a soft, plush towel after a shower, especially on cooler days.

 

Flannel Sheets

 

We all know the importance of good sheets, and this time of year calls for soft fabrics that still keep you warm. I’m a hot sleeper, but my kids love this flannel sheet set!

 

 

Essential Oils & Diffuser

 

Creating a calming atmosphere is one of my favorite things no matter the season. The right essential oil blend can help to balance, calm, sleep, and even wake up.

 

Candles

 

Speaking of scents, a well-chosen candle can make your home feel warm and inviting. Look for seasonal scents like pumpkin spice, vanilla, or cedarwood to set the perfect Fall mood.

 

 

Comfy Lounge Set

 

A lounge set is perfect for cozy days at home or casual outings while still feeling put-together.

 

And now, for two personal favorites that I can’t live without:

 

 

Ugg Slippers

 

Anyone who has visited me knows I’m all about comfort, and in our no-shoe home, you can always catch me in these slippers. They’re incredibly soft, warm, and perfect for lounging around the house. Plus, they make a great gift!

 

Oversized Hoodie

 

There’s nothing cozier than an oversized hoodie on a cool day. I practically live in mine once the temperatures drop, whether working from home or relaxing. It’s like a wearable blanket and an absolute must for anyone who loves being comfortable.

These items have been my go-to essentials as we transition into Fall, and I hope they inspire you to bring a little more comfort and warmth into your own space.
