Autumn Date Ideas - And Outfits To Wear!
Date Night With Your Partner: Try a New Restaurant. Jeff and I love to try new restaurants, it's a great way to experience new foods, interiors and support small, local businesses. I keep up on new openings online then make a reservation and look forward to it! For my date nights, I like to focus on the accessories - layering different necklaces over a top you already own brings it new life! Focus on belts, jewelry, shoes, or even a scarf - all can make an outfit you already love and feel good in new and fun!
Day Date with Your Family: Apple Picking / Pumpkin Patch. Nothing says fall like apples and pumpkins! It's so fun to pick your own: the drive out is always pretty, and it builds up excitement as you get closer. Add some hot cider or hot chocolate, and the day is set! I like to look up recipes before I go, so I can keep the fun fall vibe going the next day, whether that's making an Apple Crumble or Pumpkin Soup! For these type of outings, I like to wear a casual outfit: think tall flat boots that makes walking on the uneven ground easier, jeans, and some layers, like a tee shirt with a button up over it so I can adjust to the temperature.
Girls Date: A Hike or Walk, Followed by a Potluck. An all-day gals outing is so fun to plan and prepare for, don't you think?! This fall, I am looking forward to planning a hike and a potluck with some of my best girl friends. We decide on a hiking path, and beforehand meet up at someone's house with a dish that we store in the fridge for later. It makes the hike even more enjoyable when you have a fun dinner ready to go after! It's the perfect time to break out new workout clothes such as leggings and a long flannel shirt, that you can wear for the hike and a cozy, casual dinner!
I hope these outings inspire you to "make a date" with your loved ones this fall! And for even more fall inspo, grab the latest issue of Fit Over 50 - I have fashion ideas, dozens of fall recipes, and workouts to help you get in shape for the holidays!!
