Sandra Funk’s October Picks

October 12, 2017 by House of Funk Leave a Comment

If I’m being honest, I’m still in the back-to-school fog, but everyone seems to be settling into their new routine. Fall temperatures are finally making an appearance, and baking is at an all-time high in my house (my oldest daughter makes a killer vanilla cupcake, and now we’re testing out cinnamon- and nutmeg-flavored recipes).

October is all about pumpkin carving with the girls, getting cozy by the fireplace, and pulling out my favorite chunky sweaters and cold-weather boots.

My top picks for this month, below.

Bobby McAlpine
Poetry of Place: The New Architecture and Interiors of McAlpine by Bobby McAlpine

1. Poetry of Place: The New Architecture and Interiors of McAlpine
Bobby McAlpine, one of my all-time favorite designers, is known for his attention to detail and innovative approach to design. His latest book, Poetry of Place: The New Architecture and Interiors of McAlpine, showcases more of his beautiful projects, everything from a charming beach house to a serene lakeside retreat. Gorgeous photography makes this an excellent pick to display on your coffee table or bedside nightstand.

Barneys New York Rain Boots

2. Barneys New York Rain Boots
I may not be a fashion maven, but I do know that red-plaid detailing on dark-green footwear is a winning combo. These boots from Barneys are sturdy, stylish, and cool enough that I can transition from rainy-day school dropoff to client meeting effortlessly. Also, a neoprene sock insert = long-lasting dryness no matter what the temperature!

Paperless Post “We’ve Moved” Stationery

4. Paperless Post “We’ve Moved” Stationery
We moved into our new home late this summer, but the unpacking felt never-ending (thanks Mom, Dad, and Leslie for that last bit of help!). Once we officially settled in, I sent out change-of-address cards. This year, I opted to do everything online, using Paperless Post’s digital announcements. How pretty are these calligraphy “We’ve Moved” cards??

No waster paper or unnecessary trips to the post office. Just a modern and fresh approach to sending our friends and family our new address.

What are you loving this month?
