I cannot believe that today is the last day of September! As I look back at the last month, I want to highlight some recent fall looks and trends that I loved this month. Since there are 30 days in September, I figured I will show you 30 looks you can wear this fall, especially since we are finally getting fall weather. I’ve also included some beauty favorites at the bottom, so be sure and scroll all the way through. And don’t worry, all of my looks above will be detailed further below and everything divided by category. Let’s dive in, shall we? After all, cooler temps are arriving soon!
Howdy and Happy Monday! I hope you all had a nice weekend. To start off the week, I want to share my thoughts on the home diffusers I’ve been using over the past several months. I get a lot of questions about which ones I like, so I decided to make a full post about it. It can be hard to tell which one will work best in your space, and these three all offer something different. I use them in different areas of my home, so let’s talk about how each one works and what I like about it!

Howdy! ICYMI, Pete and I just got back from one of the most memorable trips I’ve ever taken: a 10-night Regent Seven Seas cruise on the Seven Seas Grandeur, sailing the Storied Scandinavia itinerary from Stockholm to Oslo. We set sail on August 29 and disembarked on September 8, 2026, and I am still daydreaming about it and the 70 degree weather!
EEK! Less than TEN days away from the 2026 State Fair of Texas! I LOVE to go to the state fair each year and look forward to the food, exhibitions, animals and variety of entertainment. Did you know that I’ve even been a food judge for the fair? It’s true! We’ve been going for over 30 years! Tickets can be purchased HERE. The 2026 fair theme is “STARS, STRIPES, AND HOWDIES!” which is the perfect theme to celebrate the fair in Texas. Over the years I’ve learned a few tips and tricks to easily navigate the State Fair of Texas so I thought I would share them today.
Howdy! Since we are officially into the month of September (how crazy is that?!), it is the perfect time to do a round-up of the top 10 best sellers on TanyaFoster.com from the month of August. There’s a little bit of summer and a little bit of fall in these picks, so it’s perfect for your late summer/early fall wardrobe. Personally, I love the choices you all selected! From fashion to beauty, there’s something for everyone.
Is it just me or are you also SO ready for fall weather? Even though it’s been hot, with grocery stores being filled with pumpkins and pumpkin spice items, it gets me inspired to decorate for fall. Plus, Practical Magic 2 comes out in two weeks! This is why today I’m sharing some fall home decor inspiration. Let’s look at pieces you can add to your home for fall, including items for Halloween and Thanksgiving. These pieces are tasteful and don’t detract from your usual home decor. I know some people who love decorating for each individual holiday and others who like to decorate for the season as a whole. What do you do? I love to decorate for fall and then add some touches for Halloween and Thanksgiving. Right after that, I do major decorating for the Christmas holiday season. But overall I operate by the “one holiday at a time” rule.
You know that feeling when you walk into a beautiful luxury hotel and immediately notice how amazing it smells? There’s just something about a signature scent that makes a space feel more elevated. Well, you don’t have to book a five-star vacation to get the experience! Lately, I’ve been using the Aura House Scent Diffuser to give my home that same fresh, luxurious hotel feel. If you love creating a beautiful home as much as I do, you know that it’s not just about how a space looks. Scent can completely change the atmosphere of a room, and the Aura House diffuser makes it easy to create that elevated experience at home.
You all know I don’t like to gate-keep any of my favorite products. Many of you have heard me gush about the infamous Lola Blankets on Instagram stories. They are worth the hype! These luxury blankets are insanely soft and cozy. I especially lived in mine when I was recovering from foot surgery. Today I have a once-in-a-lifetime sale offer for you. Use code TANYA50 for 50% OFF site-wide + a free $50 gift card + FREE shipping! If you’ve been considering getting one, NOW is the time. The popular blanket colors will sell out fast and you will not get a better deal than this. These also make great gifts, so if you already have one, then now is a good time to stock up!
Hi y’all! How’s your week going so far? If you’re like me, you love easy, stylish ways to elevate your outfits, especially during summer when light, breezy looks rule. One of the most popular trends I get asked about is how to tie a half bow. So today, I’m breaking it down step-by-step, showing you exactly how I tie a half bow. Whether you’re working with a shirt dress, tie-waist shorts, trousers, or tops with waist ties, mastering the half bow will add that awe-factor to your look.
New Orleans is one of those cities that you can visit over and over again and still discover something new. The food, the music, the architecture, the cocktails, the history… honestly, what’s not to love? So when Pete and I were ready for a quick weekend getaway, New Orleans was an easy choice.
I know summer is rapidly coming to a close, but that does not mean your summer tan has to! Today I want to look at easy ways to keep your tan going year-round. It’s also a great way to stay tan if you want to avoid the scorching heat. Since I’m always on the hunt for the perfect bronzed look but without the UV rays, I’ve tested dozens of options and rounded up the best self tanners for 2026 that are streak-free, natural-looking, and perfect for any occasion. From buildable drops to express mousses, there’s something here for everyone. Let’s dive in!
Today we will look at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale best of home and gifts. The home collection is amazing this year, so take advantage of these selections. TIP: This is the perfect time to stock up on hostess gifts, birthday gifts or even get a head start on Christmas gifts (yikes!) and save them in your gift closet. You will always be prepared. As a general rule, I always get items that I use all year long. If you know you’re going to use them anyways, why not get them on sale?
Happy Thursday! Let’s kick off the weekend with one of the biggest home sales of the year. The MacKenzie-Childs Barn Sale is going on now through July 20, with up to 60% OFF thousands of their most-loved pieces. If you’ve been waiting to add a few MacKenzie-Childs heirloom-quality favorites to your home (or start your collection), this is the sale to shop. I always love how MacKenzie-Childs pieces make everyday entertaining feel a little more elevated. Whether it’s a casual afternoon on the patio or hosting friends for happy hour, their serving pieces and tabletop accessories instantly pull everything together. Also, the Barn Sale is a perfect time to round out your holiday decor and stock your gifting closet.
