LIFE

School is back in swing, a light breeze is in the air and weekends are packed with sports games, homecoming prep and catching up on math homework. But you know that no matter how busy life gets, you can *always* make time for your go-to girl (your bestie, obv). 

Show her how much you love her—and your one-of-a-kind friendship—with one of these unforgettable BFF dates that honors the season and provides endless fall fun. Plus, it's the *perf* opportunity to add to your unending stash of bestie Insta pics. 

Go apple picking

Put on your coziest flannel, head to a local farm or orchard and pick some gorg Granny Smiths or delish Honeycrisps. Because *she's* the apple of your eye—and even when you're feeling rotten, she never fails to cheer you up. 

Carve pumpkins

A pumpkin-carving party is the perfect way to bring your squad together. Put on the best spooky season playlist (Monster Mash, anyone?!) and get ready for a mess—and tons of laughs—as you give your best attempt at a jack o'-lantern.

Catch a football game

Cheer on your fave team, and your sporty sidekick, when you stand on the sidelines in your jersey and jeans. Whether it's high school or pro, you're sure to have a winning time with your true-blue bud. After all, she's *always* your biggest fan. 

Host a Halloween sleepover

If you and your bestie can't help but count down the days until October 31, it's never too early to get started. Invite her over to shop for costumes (or sew your own!), bake pumpkin spice muffins and watch scary movies while you eat all the candy you can stomach. Bonus: make it a yearly tradition!

Head to a corn maze

You never *really* feel lost when she's by your side, so spend an afternoon working together to solve an autumn maize mystery. Wear a knit scarf, fluffy sweater and a pair of kicks and take adorbs matching pics with your girl—just remember to find your way to the real world before it gets dark!
