shopping for fall & halloween decor + HAUL | thrifted & vintage

time for my annual shop for halloween decor! this year we're leaning more into cozy fall and thrifting most of our decor that I can use year round.
what fall/halloween aesthetic are you? cozy fall? spooky halloween?

    Loved this video and I love that you didn't buy a ton of new stuff! Just looking can be more fun than buying. I feel accomplished when I go to a store and walk out with nothing. It shows we have standards lol. Target, Marshalls etc can feel like junk stores sometimes. At least at thrift stores, yeah you could argue some of it is junk, but at least it's not new wastefully made overpriced junk.

    Re: annoying window. Maybe you thought of this, maybe you haven't. But you could always get a privacy film, that whay you can get natural light. Or maybe sheer curtains so that up have the privacy, both from looking out and from people looking in, without losing the light. Or hey! Maybe both? I live downtown where everyone can see into the everyone's place. And those privacy window films were everything

    Love the dark academia style, the candle sconce is so beautiful, and the key hook! Bodies do keep changing after having a baby and your lifestyle changes too so do keep that in mind when clearing things out - it sounds like you have a sensible approach to it but I know a lot of us put so much pressure on ourselves if we don’t go back to looking like we did pre birth before our little ones start school. You look fantastic, beautiful, healthy and stylish and Fern seems so happy in the backgrounds of the videos, you’re doing amazingly 🖤

    You should put some super elegant and heavy curtains over that window, that would look cozy. Or, what I would probably do, put a major wood mirror or picture om there. So that it is basically like the tiny framed picture at the bottom, but more promenit. Since some huge things really elevate a space, I feel like that would be nice.
