I've been slacking on posting lately, as a promotion at work has left time to blog minimal. I have however been updating my pinterest almost daily - be sure to check it out One Chloe Bird. In recent weeks, my favourite blog for fashion inspiration has become Damsel in Dior. Jacey Duprie is so stylish in an effortless and approachable way. I love the look of her blog too.

October Obsessions

Published: October 02, 2010 | 20:10

It has been an insane week, but finally there is time to indulge myself and post about October obsessions from around the web!

This Hermes watch is one of my favourite "dream" pieces. It's big and masculine, and the soft brown leather makes it feel like the perfect thing to wear with a big camel coat. But above all I love the Hermes website. It's filled with these whimsical illustrations on nearly every page. They just offer a little bit of deserved delight on a fall day.

The New York Times Home & Garden section . . . like this bedroom in Berlin and this Stockholm entryway! Speaking of the NYT, there is a fantastic piece written by Thomas Beller that made me smile from ear to ear today. Click here to read "Home is where your stuff is."

As soon as the air turns crisp I crave Pumpkin Spice Lattes from Starbucks. I've had one so far this year, trying to keep it reasonable!!

Listening to Heart of Gold on chilly mornings driving to work. Nothing wakes me up and stirs my mind like the opening beats of that song, especially when I'm on my own, free to play it nice and loud.

Rich shades of yellow and bronzy brown to get me in the autumn mood.

Edward Hopper's paintings - which were part of a my American Literature specialization in a seminar I took in my final year. I remember using these paintings as a metaphoric consideration for the home as a barrier, used by the protagonist to escape the complexities of the outside world. I've been fascinated by them ever since. She looks longingly towards the outside, yet she curves self-protectively in determined immobility. Morning Sun feels like fall to me though, the slow rising sun that still is fresh and warm once awoken.

Elsa Peretti Wave Ring from Tiffany. Just simple and beautiful. For some reason I always want to wear more gold in the fall and silver in the winter. How curious.

Love the exterior of the new Westchester Boutique. Curved windows and slate black paint is looking surprisingly warm and inviting. I love it.

Dot Flouncette Blouse from J. Crew. Now being added to my holiday wish list . . . early I know.

Cocoon Concerto coat from J. Crew.

Classics

Published: July 14, 2010 | 14:30

There are a few classic, timeless pieces that are worth making the investment, as they will always be practical and stylish.

Watches:
I don't usually wear a watch, but on occasion I see one that I really love and I get the urge to have one. In most cases, the ones I like are actually Men's watches - with big faces and a leather strap. This one caught my eye today.

Via Coach or Macy's

Blazers:

I can never get enough of blazers. I don't own a creamy coloured one though and I love the one Gwyneth Paltrow is wearing in this photo.

Boots:

A great pair of leather boots can do wonders for any outfit. I like ones that hit at the knee, are closefitting - not too loose or slouchy, but without a heel. These Loeffler Randall ones are great!

And these Lanvin ones have just enough slouch!

Leather Bags:

Chloe Lily Pouch

Mulberry Bayswater Bag
