My friend Matt Albiani attended an estate sale in East Hampton this weekend just a stone’s throw away from Grey Gardens which he posted on his Mate Gallery Instagram account. Lucky for me and you, he shared the real estate listing for 15 West End Road. It appears to be under contract and I pray […]

Warm weather is finally here, and that means garden parties, outdoor dining, and special events. As you start planning your spring wardrobe, my friend Heidi Wynne has you covered with her beautiful new collection of block print floral dresses and lighter weight cashmere. She is generously extending a 15% reduction, site-wide with no exclusions, until […]

There are fewer and fewer designers and collectors left with impeccable taste and Jacques Garcia is one of them. Even if you don’t know his name, you’ve probably seen his work at some well known hotels in Paris, Hôtel Costes, La Reserve, L’Hôtel, and La Mamounia, and his work on historic rooms in the Louvre […]

I bought quite a few things for my April trip to Paris when the forecast was showing warmer weather but I ended up not packing any of them when it became clear that it would be rather chilly. I had the cool grey weather this year that I was expecting last year but it was […]

April is my favorite month and not just because it’s my birthday month. Everything is in bloom in New York and Paris and there are some great new exhibitions and shows and films to watch on the days that are rainy. N.B. I started this post before I left for Paris but was too busy […]

I’m headed to Paris tonight (I’ll already have arrived by the time those of you with the email subscription read this post) and I can’t wait to get back to my favorite city. I spent a month there last spring to celebrate my birthday but this trip will only be two weeks. I’m extra excited […]

Long time readers know that an ivory blouse and jeans is my favorite transitional outfit. Now that spring is here, it’s time to update the look for the new season. The cream ruffle-trim silk blouse on the left looks a little darker in the photo than reality but it’s the perfect option to tuck in […]

I’m happy to announce that the Kips Bay Decorator Show House is returning to New York for the first time since 2019. The address at 337 Riverside Drive at West 106th Street which is known as “The River Mansion,” sits on a corner high point beside Riverside Park with incredible views of the Hudson River. The Kips […]

I was asked for suggestions on what to wear to summer weddings so I thought I would put a dress edit together. These could be worn for Easter and other events as well, including bridal showers and rehearsal dinners. It was a little overwhelming to put together full accessories for each dress so I just […]

Spring and Aries season arrive on Monday but I’ve got many films and shows you are going to want to watch before the weather really warms up. There is also a great new store opening, museum exhibitions to add to your to do list, and books you will want to pick up this month. My […]

If you ever loved any of Lee Radziwill’s homes, now one can be yours. Turville Grange in Henley, England has just gone on the market for 18,750,000 Pounds. She lived in the Grade II listed property from 1966-1974 after which it was sold to Henry Ford II and stayed in the Ford family since. It […]

It’s been snowing almost all day in NYC so what better time to start thinking about spring shoes. I’ve put together 24 chic styles from flats to heels and in varying price points so hopefully, there is something for everyone who needs a pick me up right now. These tan leather sandals have the look […]

I took a little trip to Palm Beach this past week to escape the cold but more importantly, visit the Kips Bay Decorator Show House. It runs through March 19, 2023 so you have one more week to see it in person. One of the rooms that I really loved was Primrose Park by St. […]

I’ve been trying not too buy too much for spring or because I really don’t need many pieces. But I am headed to Palm Beach soon and picked up a few things that work for both so I thought I would share them. In case you haven’t taken a look lately, Banana Republic is looking […]

Remember when I posted about Denbigh Farm being for sale and then the interiors? Well, now you can bid on the furnishings in April at Stair Galleries. “The Collection of Susie Hilfiger at Denbigh Farm represents the life-long interests and connoisseurship of a family whose name is synonymous with style, luxury, and uncompromising taste. Furnished […]

I’m headed to Palm Beach soon to photograph the Kips Bay Decorator Show House and I’m already planning my outfits. My inspiration jumping off point is the blue shirtdress that Tilda Swinton wears in A Bigger Splash which is based on the french film La Piscine. I was amazed to find this Striped Cotton Midi […]

Last week, many of my followers on Instagram were lamenting that a lot hotels in Paris are already booked up for this year. Lucky for all of you, I can announce that the new Château des Fleurs five-star hotel will be opening on 14 April 2023. I don’t think anyone else knows about yet so […]

I’ve sent out almost 450 Paris Guide orders just since the beginning of the year which is no surprise since Paris continues to be the number one travel destination in the world. The number one question I’m always asked is what to wear in Paris during specific months of the year. It’s definitely harder to […]

I started this month’s New and Noteworthy post early in the week but kept coming across new things that I wanted to add to the list. For a month with only 28 days, February to chock full of new openings and releases that you will definitely want to check out. I always joke that I […]

You’d have to be living under a rock or taking a break from social media to not be aware of the hubbub surrounding the New York magazine article, Do You Know How to Behave?, which lists rules on “how to text, tip, ghost, host, and generally exist in polite society today”. Some of their rules […]
