Discover the Essentials We Loved in October
October was a month of change—a time where the days get shorter and chilly air nudges us to retreat indoors and embrace cozy comforts. At Remodelista, we shared our favorite finds ranging from style staples to lifestyle essentials that transformed our everyday routines. Let’s take a closer look at what captured our hearts last month.
Colorful Inspirations for Your Home
As the leaves turned gold and crimson, inspiration blossomed from the hues surrounding us. Margot reminded us of the soothing palette of Cambridge, Massachusetts: “Houses in somber charcoals and grays with lavender front doors.” The seasonal warmth of Boston ivy captivated her, melding perfectly with the architecture of the Harvard Art Museums. These shades not only decorate our walls but also hint at creativity and comfort. If you’re looking to refresh your home, consider incorporating similar muted yet welcoming tones.
A Journey into the World of Stationery
Annie discovered a little treasure trove on her trip to NYC—a shop called Goods for the Study. For those who adore the written word, vintage stationery brings a sense of nostalgia and charm. Returning home with marbled journals and elegant notebooks, she rekindled her passion for jotting down thoughts and memories. Inspired? Why not seek out your own local stationery shop and start filling the pages with your thoughts and dreams!
Crafting Your Culinary Haven
Melissa shared her delightful experience at a bookstore called Books & Cake in Hillsdale, NY. Not only does it offer a unique way of categorizing books by mood, but it also serves as a reminder of the importance of local businesses. Among her finds was What If We Get It Right: Visions of Climate Futures by Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, a thought-provoking exploration suited for our times. Pair a good read with an urge to explore sustainable cooking; why not make homemade tortillas? Inspired by Julie’s upgrade to a professional-grade tortilla press, you can integrate creativity in your kitchen while feeding your family with wholesome meals made with love.
Fashion for the Fall
In line with the autumn vibes, Laura took a peek into the renovated design store at MoMA, unveiling the collaboration between Marimekko and Artek. This collection embodies a spirit of tradition mixed with modern flair, proving how design can bring joy during colder months. Remember, your wardrobe can also reflect this philosophy—consider layering with chunky knits and vibrant patterns that uplift your spirits.
Small Changes, Big Impact
In this month of inspiration, it’s essential to remember that even minor modifications—whether in our homes, our wardrobe, or our cooking habits—can lead to significant improvements in our overall well-being. As the season shifts, take the time to reflect on what you cherish most and explore ways to bring those elements into your daily life.
Final Thoughts on Lifestyle Upgrades
Our favorite finds this October serve as a gentle reminder to embrace change and elevate the mundane into something marvelous. Whether it's through warm colors, inspiring reads, or gorgeous new decor, tapping into what truly matters can reshape your everyday experience. So as we look ahead to November, let’s continue to cherish these connections while exploring new passions.
