1. Coffee dates

Coffee is a central element in the Gilmore Girls series, so why not kickstart your autumn mornings with a comforting cup of coffee? Take the time to explore a range of flavours, particularly the seasonal variations offered at cafes and venture out to independent coffee shops in your area. Whether you choose to indulge in some self-care or meet up with friends for a catch-up over a warm brew, let coffee be your autumn companion.

2. Find a nice study spot

We all understand the importance of studying in a favourable environment to enhance productivity. This autumn, make it a priority to discover a study spot that suits your preferences. Just like Rory, you can find your perfect spot, whether it’s at your local library, under a tree in a serene park, or any other location that inspires focus and concentration.

To maximize your effectiveness, I suggest combining this step with the previous one. Look for a cosy coffee shop that offers a welcoming atmosphere to work in. By doing so, you can enjoy the comforts of a delightful coffee shop ambiance while doubling your productivity.

3. Books

Fans of the show know that Rory is the ultimate bookworm, making this step an essential one. Take the time to indulge in your love for reading this autumn and find scenic locations where you can cosy up with a book whilst staying warm. Consider discovering charming bookshops that perfectly capture the aesthetic of autumn. These beautiful spaces can enhance your reading experience and provide a cosy atmosphere.

Additionally, you may want to challenge yourself by attempting the Rory Gilmore reading challenge. Expand your literary horizons by exploring the wide range of books mentioned or featured in the show. This challenge will not only broaden your knowledge but also allow you to immerse yourself further into the Gilmore Girls universe.

Embrace the Gilmore Girls lifestyle by ordering your favorite takeout and settling in for a movie marathon. Prepare a selection of your all-time favorite films or even re-watch the Gilmore Girls series itself. Snuggle up with cozy blankets, indulge in delicious takeout food, and immerse yourself in the comforting world of Stars Hollow. This is the perfect way to unwind, relax, and enjoy a Gilmore Girls-inspired evening filled with good food and great films.
