4 Instagram-worthy fall activities

Happy fall, y’all

Leaves are turning, there’s a chill in the air, and sweaters are the name of the game—fall is here, and we couldn’t be more excited! Take advantage of the beautiful weather by getting outside to do #allthefallthings.

Bring along your bestie, your pup, or the whole family—and don’t forget to snap a few pics along the way! Check out our tips for making every moment picture perfect. Plus, stay organized with Thirty-One products that are totally Instagram-worthy

Sunflower fields forever

Sunflowers bloom in the summer, but often last well into October—so even when fall is in full swing, you can still bring the sunshine! Not to mention the bright blooms are the perfect backdrop for a mini photoshoot with your BFF. 

To pack all your essentials for a sunflower field frolic, go for a roomy but cute bag that you won’t mind wearing in photos. We love the hands-free Journey Backpack (which looks even better embroidered with your monogram), or opt for the Window Shopper, which can be worn as a crossbody or carried by the top handles.

 

Photo Tip: Find the light 

Overcast days are best for shooting photos outside, but don’t worry if the sun is shining bright. Just face the light to avoid shadows falling on your face and say cheese!

An apple (orchard) a day…

If baking is on your fall bucket list, there’s no better day trip than apple picking. Not only will you stock up on the star of tons of tasty recipes, but you can also get creative by snapping pics while you pick. (See what we did there?) 

For apple hauls big and small, bring along the Square Utility Tote and Littles Carry-AllTM Caddy. These bags are sturdy, reusable, and the new fall prints are made with fabric that’s made from recycled water bottles—we call that a win-win-win.

 

Photo Tip: Move & groove

Get creative with your poses by moving around and interacting with your environment. Turning, swinging your bag or reaching for a prop will make your photos more dynamic—you might be surprised by some of the creative shots you capture!

Catch us at the pumpkin patch

Whether you’re in search of the perfect soon-to-be jack-o-lantern or looking for some autumnal décor, pumpkin picking is a fall must. Bring the kids along to choose their own and have fun taking photos of your new favourite family tradition! 

Outings with the kids call for roomy bags to fit snacks, toys and mama must-haves. With plenty of pockets and a wipeable, easy to clean interior, the Classic Style Tote is an organizing lifesaver. And for a more relaxed look, the Casual Crossbody Tote is the perfect combo of spacious and stylish.  

 

Photo Tip: Work your angles

Add some variety to your photos by moving the camera around. Try closeups, wide shots, or shooting from up high or down low. When it comes to a ‘gram-worthy shot, the more options to choose from the better!

That farmer’s market feeling

Support local growers and small businesses by taking your next selfie session to the farmer’s market. Indoor or outdoor, you’re sure to find fresh produce, flowers and unique gifts – think homemade candles, jams, baking mixes, soap and much more. 

With all those hard-to-resist goodies, be sure to bring a few reusable totes along. We recommend the Large Utility Tote and Small Essential Storage Tote—their sturdy fabrication and reinforced stitching make them more durable than flimsy plastic grocery bags.  

 

Photo Tip: Spread the word

Help support your local market and vendors by giving them a shoutout! As you’re posting that aesthetic photo of the handmade candle you just bought, be sure to tag the maker if they’re on social media. You can also mark the location the photo was taken at so that friends and followers can check it out too!

Make some memories!

Whether you’re out and about or cozied up at home, every day is Instagram-worthy when it’s spent with the ones you love. Tag us in your fall photos on social @thirtyone and show us how you stay organized with Thirty-One.
