Carly’s Cut, Vol. 3

Fall always feels like my personal reset button. Maybe it’s the Scorpio in me (how original, I know), or maybe it’s those stubborn New England roots, but there’s something about October that makes me feel like I’m finally in season. The air gets that just-right crispness, the beanies emerge from the depths of my closet, and The Great Pumpkin Waltz becomes the official soundtrack of our living room. We started the month in Madrid and Marrakech, and now I’m back home feeling refueled, inspired, and ready to romanticize every last leaf that hits the pavement. . . if that ever happens here in Charleston.

That’s a Wrap!

It’s hard to believe we’re already in November, which is when I start my holiday shopping (and wrapping!). Today, a round-up of my favorite gift wrap. I am personally a huge fan of this malachite wrapping paper; it’s sort of my signature, but I might like this version even more! That, along with my beloved Amazon double-faced satin ribbon (I always stock up on ivory and dark green). This year, I also loaded up on pretty wrap from Rifle, these fun Lia Burke Libaire mushrooms (Lia is an incredible artist, I love that she makes gift wrap now), this nostalgic leg lamp motif, these super convenient gift stickers

What I Read in October 2025

I’m not exaggerating when I say that this was a phenomenal month of reading. I read three A+ books right in a row: The Secret History, Heart the Lover, Workhorse! Meanwhile, on audio, I had strong women (Bobbi Brown and Diane Keaton) keeping me company. It doesn’t get better than that. I liked but did not love the two thrillers I read, but everything else was so great that I didn’t even mind.

Suede Staples

If there was one thing I noticed most in Paris, it was all of the gorgeous suede pieces I saw! I felt very on trend because I already had this Sezane jacket (it is a favorite), but during the trip, the brand also gave me this one with a drawstring tie. They are both gorgeous, but if I were to choose a favorite, it would be my original shirt jacket, simply because it’s a little lighter. If I were still in New York, I might feel differently. I also packed this suede dress for my trip. Perfect layered over a turtleneck! It was the first time in a while that I felt like I had packed appropriately. Remember Venice? That was a bit of a disaster, ha ha. Regardless, I have suede on the brain in a big way, so today I wanted to share a few more suede pieces I’m loving!
