In the Spirit

October is officially in the spirit! There’s a chill in the air, pumpkins on every porch, and just enough spooky season energy to make the month feel like an event. Between costume plans, fall festivals, and cozy plans that seem to multiply by the day, October never runs out of reasons to get out and enjoy it.

October's Got it All

Fall festival weekends, spooky season staples, and everything in between, every bit of October deserves to be done right. Whether you’re planning the perfect costume, chasing pumpkin patch photos, or just soaking up the last of the season, it’s all waiting for you in one place.

Movie Night

Some nights just call for a blanket, snacks, and something a little eerie on screen. Stock the snack table at Whole Foods Market, grab blankets and throw pillows to build the ultimate couch fort at The Aspen Gift House, and skip the kitchen with takeout from Sip + Savor. Dim the lights, press play, and let the fall night do the rest.

The Fall Refresh, Piece by Piece

This season’s all about a little more personality in the everyday: leopard print accents, statement earrings, chunky knits, and plaid in richer, deeper colorways than your usual fall rotation. Find leopard-print scarves and accessories at Megan’s Lifestyle Boutique, grab a pair of standout earrings or a layered necklace at Chico’s, and stock up on plaid flannels and cozy knits at J.Crew Factory. Pairing a blazer with your favorite jeans is also an easy way to dress up a casual look without overthinking it.

Slow Down October

Somewhere between the costumes and the countdown to the holidays, it’s worth carving out a little time for yourself. Book something at Woodhouse Day Spa or Drybar, pick up a skincare refresh at Bluemercury, and unwind with a favorite drink or snack from Tiff’s Treats. No agenda, just a little time back for you.

Where to Shop

However you’re spending it, October is easy to fall in love with. Grab a costume, catch a festival, stock up on fall flavors, or cozy up the house for the season ahead…The Shops at Highland Village is the easiest place to check it all off. Whether you’re planning ahead or just soaking up the crisp weather, there’s always one more stop worth making. Come for one thing, stay for a few more.
