Bookshelf glamour - today I read a lovely article by Rita Konig who is now contributing to the Wall Street Journal’s Saturday edition. She did a beautiful piece on how to make an office more chic and yes, less “office-y”. I noticed the desk above right in front of the bookshelves, part of the Ralph Lauren Fall 2010 Collection photo spread.

I fell in love with the spread on Malene Birger’s book Life and Work on Habitually Chic. Definitely take a glance at her entire post (I love the palette), but the living room definitely stood out to me. The placement of the artwork definitely follows the advice of Rita Konig’s recent article in the Wall Street Journal when it comes to making an office both comfortable and chic.
love love LOVE this room and its feel… Malene Birger on Habitually Chic
With books, great artwork, beautiful frames, sleek desks, and a comfortable setting and palette - you will assuredly create a comfortable AND chic workplace.

I know, you realize how gorgeous these are too! I was staring at them through the window of the Highland Park Ralph Lauren the other week (don’t worry, the store was closed!) and just had to come home and torture myself to see how much they actually were. I can totally see myself signing up for a local trail ride this fall and wearing these boots (haha- totally kidding!). Nonetheless, the Isabelline Riding Boot is positively stunning. If I could JUST get a pair of these and my fall dream bag:
I mean HOW fantastic is the Fendi Peek-a-boo bag?? You don’t have to answer. I know that it is absolutely amazing. I haven’t swooned over a “new” bag shape in a long time, but this one has certainly got me…..
LOVE the slouchy leather paired with the classic frame… and it’s overall vintage appeal. And how cute is the name: the peek-a-boo tote! With the boots and this bag… I could just maybe be set for fall ;) (accessories-wise of course).
- Also, though the wearer may look like they are walking around with small poodles on their feet, I might throw these Fendi’s in for good measure.. afterall, I would just HAVE to have a black leather pair of boots as well!
SO CUTE! Fendi Shearling Ankle Boot from Browns Fashion. These would look great with a pair of tights (see Kate Spade tights below). Clearly, I’m just in love with FENDI this season!
