I was trying to find who designed the bedroom in this apartment last week to no avail. Then today, I stumbled upon it while looking for something else. Don’t you just love when that happens? Turns out it is the Madrid apartment of Ramon Garcia Juardo and his partner Paco Pocovi who live and work together. It […]
When I spotted Sasha Adler’s Chicago apartment in the March 2013 issue of ELLE, I remembered that I had an entire folder devoted to the the Nate Berkus Associates design directors. The other being Lauren Buxbaum. Not only are their home chic and stylish but their personal style is pretty perfect too. I joked once […]
When it comes to shopping for each new season, if you snooze you lose. I’ve learned this lesson the hard way by missing out on quite a few pieces so now I shop early…and often. The new Emerson Fry Spring 2013 Collection just went online today and the sunny California vibe is is welcome respite […]
What are we supposed to do now that awards season and Downton Abbey are over? I supposed we should go out for some fresh air and exercise or we could stay home for three more nights watching Parade’s End on HBO. The Tom Stoppard written five part mini-series starts tonight and runs through Thursday. […]
I bet some people don’t even realize that Elsa Peretti is a real person and that she’s still designing her eponymous collection for Tiffany & Co. She began her career as a model before branching out into jewelry design. There is a great new interview with the Italian designer in the new issue of Time […]
Not all the stars attend the Academy Awards ceremony. Some go straight to the Vanity Fair Oscars party like Rose Byrne who looked amazing. I just got my hair cut Friday but after seeing her chic shoulder grazing do, I wish I had gone shorter. I’m also loving her bright bright pinky red lipstick. For […]
The 2013 Oscar awards ceremony may have fallen flat due to Seth MacFarlane but luckily most of the red carpet gowns hit it out of the park. Best actress winner Jennifer Lawrence has a contract with Dior so it was no surprise that she wore Dior Haute Couture. I wish I had a photo of […]
Celine bags aren’t just loved by the ladies. I found the wonderful blog We Could Grow Up Together after spying the photo of one of his Celine bags above somewhere on the internets. The author, Kwannam Chu, is a peripatetic photographer and creative director who chronicles his life, travels and work in his own unique […]
On Valentine’s Day, I won this amazing red Celine Phantom bag from Vaunte. I never win anything and I still can’t believe I won a Celine bag. I’m not telling you this to gloat but to remind you that you can’t win if you don’t play. A good reminder for contests and life! Bon Weekend! […]
I’ve been reading Who What Wear since they launched in 2006 so it was a huge treat to be able to meet the founders and tour their offices when I was in Los Angeles last month. Even more exciting was visiting the fashion closet. As we all know, everyone thinks that the fashion world revolves […]
I LOVE this color block outfit (it’s Prada) that Amanda Seyfried was wearing that was posted on Who What Wear today. It’s freezing again in New York and this ensemble is getting me even more excited for spring. It also reminds me of a few other things I’ve seen recently. I have been stalking these […]
Since I’ve been posting a lot of feminine fashion recently, I thought I should take a little time out for the boys. As a follow up to my post about the fall 2013 J.Crew fashion presentation, I thought it might be interesting to look at how the menswear director for J.Crew, Frank Muytjens lives at […]
The hardest part about attending the fall fashion shows in February is that you want to be able to immediately buy and wear everything you see on the runway. This is especially true at J.Crew. I loved the coats, bags, shoes, sweaters, and pretty much everything. To quote Veruca Salt, “I want it NOW”! But […]
Even though I woke up to snow flurries this morning, I know spring can’t be too far behind. To get in the mood, I suggest buying stripes. Lucky for you, Chance has just launched its first ever sale this week. You can save 40% on everything until Sunday, February 24th including their signature shirts and even the […]
I was going to put together a post on all the chandeliers I saw at the fall 2103 shows this past week but T magazine beat me to it. The stag horn chandeliers at Ralph Lauren on the left were the most gorgeous while the one at Jason Wu on the top right was the […]
I apologize for another short post but I’m still under the weather. One bright spot today was receiving an advance copy of the new WSJ Magazine with new editor Kristina O’Neill at the helm. I’ve been reading it already and I think you’re going to like it just as much as you did before. It […]
The “fashion flu” strikes almost everyone who attends the shows and my time has come. I’m taking the night off to rest but will be back tomorrow with more NYFW coverage and some non-fashion related news. Until then, I’m leaving you with one of my favorite looks from the Fall 2013 J.Crew presentation yesterday. That […]
It was rainy and cold this morning in New York but those who braved the weather were rewarded by a chic show by The Row. For those of you not in the know, The Row is helmed by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. but couldn’t be further from what they wore growing up on Full House. […]
Red seems to be popping up in every collection for fall 2013 and Trina Turk was no exception. According to the show notes ” Trina Turk’s fall 2013 collection signals a distinct brand evolution as she focuses on the sleek and chic style of California today. Her signature west coast optimism has been infused with […]
If you can’t afford a Basquiat like in my earlier post or anything at Gagosian for that matter, you might want to check out Lindsay Cowles Art. Her colorful abstract paintings are not only popular with collectors but interior designers who commission special pieces for their clients. They would look as great in a modern […]
