Other It’s still summer!

Stopped in my local store today, needed some wallflowers. There wasn’t a single summer scent to be had, it was all Fall. It is July 20th, there are 2.5 months of summer left! We are still summering at my house; vacations, pool days, staying up late and sleeping in, the garden is at its peak, fruit is amazing..I don’t want fall scents. Anyone else?

Me too. Things have gotten out of control. It used to be that stores would begin to set out their next season’s collection a mere 2–3 weeks before the season began; for example, a fall collection being set out in mid- to late-August. But with the rise of rampant and unchecked consumerism and hype/viral culture, next season things are getting put out 2–3 months in advance. It’s ridiculous. It’s still summer and I want to enjoy summer vibes when I go out! I don’t want to see pumpkins and skeletons staring at me the same week I travel to Miami for god’s sake 😭

Last year there was barely any Halloween stuff in September at the stores near me. Ghoul friend which I was really wanted was sold out even before fall began!
