Pampered Pairings: Cozy up with These Fall Favorites
Autumn has arrived—meaning the cozy season can officially commence. I’m big on themes and have a running list of favorite shows and movies perfect for fall that I’ve narrowed down to five. Each of these prized picks deserves an elevated experience—whether it be a nighttime screening or a lazy start to Saturday morning. You’ll also find curated companion items—from a comfy ChappyWrap and pajama set to flavorful blends and a needlepoint project that’ll make the pampering sesh even cozier. Peruse the lineup and see which category speaks to you.
[1] Gilmore Girls
The verdict is in and I, like Richard Gilmore, am an autumn. Set in the picturesque small town of Stars Hallow, plaid and stripes felt apropos for a New England vibe. ChappyWrap released a new line of blankets for the season and I couldn’t love their Sebago Tartan print more—it also is teeming with school spirit for my fellow UTM Skyhawks. The only thing better than a pair of LAKE pajamas is a set that comes with both shorts and pants. With the back and forth between lingering summer and faux autumn, it’s nice to have go-to attire no matter the weather. Best of all, the English Navy Tidal Stripe set can be enjoyed year-round thanks to it’s timeless design. Lorelai Gilmore is all about the coffee and so a steaming cup of Espresso Mezzo (served black, of course) is in order for an energizing and flavorful start to the day. Make the most of your binge-watching by stitching this delightful needlepoint canvas from Atlantic Blue Canvas.

[2] You’ve Got Mail
“I just love New York in the fall,” but if you don’t call the Big Apple home, a lazy day screening You’ve Got Mail is the next best thing. It offers a heartwarming romantic comedy in the beginnings of the digital age—which is a refreshing retreat from today’s reality. Kathleen Kelly with her light and airy vibes serves as the inspo for this collection. Don a pair of these silky sage bloom pajamas and sip on a serving of Pride and Prejudice-inspired tea—after all it’s our heroine’s favorite book. Buttery yellow cream blends with rich brown hues in the Harborview Herringbone blanket. A needlepoint round featuring The Shop Around the Corner can be finished as an ornament or coaster.

[3] The Parent Trap
A must-watch on October 11th to celebrate Annie and Hallie’s Birthday, The Parent Trap is a fan-favorite and it’s more than earned its spot. Transport yourself to Camp Walden with this On The Lake blanket and a pair of green-and-white striped pajamas. For a morning watch-party, fix a pancake breakfast Chessy would be proud to attend and serve up a pot of Cabernet Barrel Aged coffee. Of course, you can always enjoy a bowl of chili paired with cornbread for an evening movie night. Complete the experience with this Hallie-approved needlepoint canvas.

[4] Little Women
Little Women by Louisa May Alcott has always been a novel I treasure reading, especially as someone who relates to Amy and Jo March (I can’t choose between art and writing). Greta Gerwig’s film adaptation was well executed and is ideal for an afternoon viewing. The whimsical green trellis pattern of this nightgown complements the Highlands Floral blanket’s block print. Steep a cup of At the Waterfront tea and stitch a Little Women-themed round for the ultimate peaceful afternoon.

[5] Hocus Pocus
Don’t let the spooky season pass you by without watching Hocus Pocus at least once. The occasion calls for Halloween pajamas and I love how the color palette of the Houndstooth blanket seems to coordinate with the Sanderson sisters. Brew a cup of pumpkin spice coffee and stitch your very own spell book—witchcraft not included.
