Seasonal trends and autumn lifestyle guides

Various lifestyle trends and seasonal guides highlight the transition into autumn and summer. In gardening, experts recommend specific fall maintenance, such as removing diseased plants and avoiding high-nitrogen fertilizers for roses to ensure healthy spring growth. For home decor, trends include creating 'gothic' gardens using dark foliage like bugle and sambuca nigra, as well as using bell peppers for edible Halloween decorations.

Fashion and lifestyle trends for the upcoming seasons include the rise of plaid-patterned bags for the 2026-2027 autumn-winter period and summer home decor focused on coastal aesthetics with light textiles and natural materials like rattan. Additionally, seasonal transitions are often marked by cultural shifts, such as the arrival of pumpkin spice flavors in coffee shops and the use of embellished, non-carved pumpkins for glamorous autumn centerpieces.
