I knew Australian interior designer Anna Spiro was working on something great via Instagram but I wasn’t exactly sure what until I saw another Instagram post from artist Wayne Pate. Turns out it was a hotel Halcyon House and restaurant Paper Daisy for which Wayne illustrated the menus. Halcyon House is located in Cabarita Beach, New South Wales, Australia and was […]
As I mentioned before, I love when homes I’ve visited are featured online since it gives me the chance to see all the other rooms in the house. Such is the case with California abode of artist and designer Lulu deKwiatkowski featured on One Kings Lane. I photographed Lulu and her studio space for my book […]

Paris is experiencing a heat wave this week and I hope some people planned ahead and went to the shore. I can’t think of anything that would look more chic on the beach than a bathing suit and towel from Hermès Le Bain 2015. Villa sold separately.
I’m planning a trip to Italy this autumn which is just one of the reasons I love following J.J. Martin and her site La Double J. It highlights her vintage clothing and accessories for sale but also some of the chicest women of Milan. One that caught my attention recently was a feature on Pupi […]
It was five years ago that I first saw the New Jersey house of Dransfield & Ross founders John Dransfield and Geoffrey Ross and it looks just as good today. I love that One Kings Lane is able to give a more in depth look into interiors during their house tours than most magazines. And as I’ve mentioned before, […]
The worst part of the fashion calendar is that when you actually want to buy summer clothes, you’ll find nothing but in the stores but wool coats. If you’re still in need of key pieces to get you through warm weather any time of year, head to Chance where you’ll find everything you need. The […]
As much as I love Paris, I’m really glad I’m not in town for the latest heat wave. Well, at least I was until I saw these great photos. Guests arriving for the Berluti menswear fashion show were greeted at the Musée Picasso by models dressed perfectly for the weather in just boxers, socks, and […]
Montauk has typically been the quieter area of the Hamptons due to its location on the very end of Long Island. That has started to change in recent years as people were priced out of other areas. Now finding anything reasonably priced in Montauk might be about to end as Andy Warhol’s old compound is put up […]

A small piece from the WSJ.Magazine online has led to a new design crush in Gabriela Perezutti Hearst. The Uruguay-born designer started with her first line Candela but now has a new line Gabriela Hearst that she describes as a collection “for a woman, not a girl. Someone who knows what she wants.” Although she’s lived […]
One of the most amazing old homes in Sag Harbor is the Hannibal French House on Main Street. It was built in 1834 but redesigned and enlarged in 1860 by “one of the more illustrious whaling and ship owning families” according to the Sag Harbor Historical Society. The elaborate Italianate home was also restored by more […]

While I’m in the Hamptons, it feels like everyone else I follow on Instagram is in Italy right now. Some are on holiday but most are in Florence for Pitti Uomo, the most important menswear tradeshow on the calendar each year. It’s a chance for the men to have their day in the sun and strut […]
