I saw Jenna Lyons at the goop pop up shop party Monday night. She was surrounded by admirers so I didn’t get a chance to talk to her to find out what she’s up to now. My question was answered by the feature in the December 3rd issue of T Magazine which is online now. […]

I love a place that allows for one-stop shopping for the holidays and beloved-British brand, The White Company, is the perfect place to get gifts for everyone on your list this year. They offer elegant and affordable gifts for women, men, children, and home, as well as gift wrap, ribbon, tags, decorations, and more. The […]

The holidays in New York are always magical and this year is no exception. I took a tour of some of the decorations this past weekend and the Bergdorf Goodman holiday windows were the standout. The “To New York With Love” themed windows celebrate New York cultural institutions such as American Museum of Natural History, […]

There is nothing I find more overwhelming that creating gender and age specific holiday gift guides. Instead of doing it the way everyone else is doing it this year, I’ve decided to create a few favorite things gift guides inspired by Oprah. This one mixes gifts for everyone on your list so you can get […]

Call Me By Your Name

11 . 27 . 17

The continuous negative news cycle has me seeking out beauty in movies, books, and museum exhibitions. It’s one of the reasons I made it a point to see Call Me By Your Name this past weekend. As I mentioned in my post Upcoming Oscar Worthy Films, the film is getting the most Oscar buzz right now. […]

Black Friday 2017

Black Friday refers to the time when stores would go from the red to the black as shoppers took advantage after Thanksgiving sales. It’s also an excuse for me to put together my annual black color compilation post. Hope you find some great bargains this weekend! ANN TAYLOR – 50% off everything with code GOPINK […]

Giving Thanks

11 . 22 . 17

The best thing about Thanksgiving is that it’s a holiday about cooking and food, hence the kitchens, and giving thanks. This year, I’m grateful that I wasn’t in any of the man made or natural disasters this year and that I can afford to help those who were. I’m grateful to be able to travel […]

I wanted to begin my gift guides this year with some of my favorite things. (Yes, like Oprah but not as extensive.) These gift ideas could be for host/hostess gifts, stocking stuffers, or items for anyone on your list, even yourself. There is no store as overwhelming in a good way like Fortnum & Mason […]

Wandler

11 . 18 . 17

A bout of insomnia often leads to scrolling through Instagram. Last night, it lead to the discovery of the new bag line WANDLER in a post from @lisa.aiken. Founder Elza Wandler wanted to design bags “clear in function and shape, WANDLER shows a distinctive aesthetic: elegant with unexpected dimensions and a dynamic use of colors. Embodying […]

The best thing about the end of the year, besides pumpkin pie and presents, are all the anticipated fall films that are about to be released. The best movies always come out around the holidays so they will be fresh in people’s minds when they consider films for Academy Awards nominations. Not sure if remake […]

If you’ve ever dreamed of having breakfast at Tiffany’s, you can now make it a reality. Well, only if you don’t mind standing in line for an hour two. Last week, I had the pleasure of experiencing the newly redesigned fourth floor of the Tiffany and Co. Fifth Avenue flagship store which offers home decor, […]

If you missed out on buying Steven Gambrel‘s townhouse at 250 West 10th Street, you have another opportunity to make it yours. It was purchased by someone who rented it out to Courtney Love who wallpapered over some of the rooms and allegedly started a fire. Those rooms have been repainted and the home has […]

Veranda is one of the only magazines, if not the only one, to feature homes decorated for Christmas each year. I love seeing all the beautiful holiday decor in elegant interiors especially this one by Alidad in London. Of course, it helps to have rich red rooms as a backdrop but amaryllis and fruits would look […]

I love the glamorous mix of […]

I’m back from Boston and had a wonderful weekend. Until I have time to edit my photos, I’m leaving you with this lovely historic home in the Loire Valley that was brought back to life by Tino Zervudachi. The chateau just featured in Architectural Digest dates from the 17th and 18th-centuries and was acquired by the […]
