Autumn is basically an invitation to make plans.

If you're ready to make the most of the season, here are 12 things to add to your autumn bucket list.

🍂 1. Go on an autumn walk

Find a nearby woodland, park or countryside spot and go looking for the best autumn colours.

🎃 2. Have a Halloween party

Get your friends together, choose a theme, dress up and put on a Halloween playlist.

The only rule? Good snacks are non-negotiable.

🔮 3. Have a Practical Magic movie night

With Practical Magic 2 arriving this September, there's never been a better excuse to revisit the original.

Black outfits, Midnight Margaritas, blankets and a bowl of Que Rico Spanish olive oil crisps.

Black dresses, witch hats, candles and your favourite people.

You don't need an occasion - it's autumn.
