HEY SEPTEMBER! September in some ways feels more like a new year than January. It’s a time for change and routines and although I’m sad summer is over there is something refreshing about Fall. The days begin with a crisp breeze and cozy sweaters aren’t too far in the forecast but we still are teased with summer temperatures.
I’m looking forward to new and exciting projects this Fall, like a cookbook I’m styling this month as well, as a super fun pattern design project coming up. I hope to have time to continue to work on building my surface design portfolio and complete my 100 day design challenge on instagram (before the end of the year!)
Above is my SEPTEMBER MOOD(board). All the fall colours and coziness.
Layers and patterns. Apple picking and sunflower picking, cool morning walks with warm drinks. Dinners out and dinners in with friends. Slow mornings and reading under a blanket, and fun socks (because generally I hate socks!)
… and now here are a few specific things I am really into right now:
I’m reading …
Lunch Lady Magazine
This has been my favourite magazine for as long as I can remember. An Australian indy magazine that has been an inspiration for my love for pattern design. Earlier this year they announced that they will no longer be creating the magazine (after 8 years and 30 issues), so I’ve been stocking up on old issues and love how timeless they are. They also make a stunning rainbow stack on my bedside table!
I’m loving my …
Philips One by Sonicare Rechargeable Toothbrush.
This seems sort of silly but I LOVE my toothbrush. First off it comes in the cutest colours. I have the Champagne colour and the rechargeable version (there’s also a battery version). It’s an electric toothbrush that only needs to be charged every 3+ months (so no ugly charging station that need to be plugged in). I love it for travel and it comes with a great travel case. I took it with me on all my road trips this summer when I used to pack a basic travel toothbrush that I would throw out after the weekend. Oh the little things!
I’m Watching …
MasterClass.
I’ve been wanting to try MasterClass for a while now and I finally hopped on a good promo and subscribed. MasterClass is an immersive learning experience with classes from some of the best in the world. I’ve been trading in Netflix and have been watching Masterclass instead in the evenings. My watch list is huge including Rupaul, Shae McGee, Tan France, Kelly Wearstler, Annie Leibovitz, Bill Nye and so many more. Anyone have reccos?
