Today has been one of those days. I’ve been running around taking care of last minute things for Paris like highlights with Marie Robinson and picking up my tailoring. I’m also dealing with last minute work projects. So much for telling people a month in advance of your travel plans. I promise a long post […]
I’m headed to Paris on Wednesday for fashion week and I’m praying the snow that’s due Tuesday doesn’t delay my flight. I can’t wait to get out of this arctic tundra. The 50 degree temperatures will feel like summer compared to the 20’s we’ve had in New York for the last two months. I’m not […]
The calendar says March but forecast is calling for more snow. I think we’re all over this winter so let’s take a look at these sunny photos from Bergdorf Goodman that were shot in Cartagena, Colombia and pretend we’re warm. They feature new spring arrivals that I hope we can will be able to wear […]
I kept seeing images from the living room above on Tumblr and finally decided to investigate. Turns out they are from the home of Rosa Park and Rich Stapleton, the founder of Cereal magazine, that were featured on Freunde von Freunden. Not only is the apartment interesting but it’s location in Bath, England is a […]
As excited as I am to be headed back to Paris next week, I would like to add some new stamps to my passport. I’m thinking Copenhagen might be a good place to visit this year. It’s a beautiful city with a great design community and lots to see. If I do decide to go, the Hotel […]
I was very excited to see Amanda Brooks post the cover of her upcoming book, Always Pack a Party Dress: And Other Lessons Learned From a (Half) Life in Fashion, on Instagram this morning. The book is only available for pre-order right now so I’m going to have to figure out who I need beg […]
The Oscars are the last of the award shows which means that everyone can take off their Spanx and eat a cheeseburger now. The red carpet started off slow but built up steam when Lupita Nyong’o, Naomi Watts, and Sienna Miller showed up. But it was Julianne Moore above in custom Chanel (Karl made it for […]
There is nothing I’ve been loving more this cold and snowy winter than shopping online, especially when things are on sale. Lucky for you, my lovely sponsor HATCH is giving HC readers a special 20% off their fall collection so you can shop before it goes on sale to the public next Tuesday. You can use […]
Fashion week is almost over in New York and I’m actually glad. It’s a week filled with sensory overload that makes you feel like you need to detox afterward. It also makes me feel like I need a palette cleanser of lighter colors and minimal design not just in fashion. I was cleaning out tear sheets recently […]
Farrow & Ball has just launched a collection of wallpapers inspired by 19th and 20th-century French archive fashion fabrics. To celebrate, they asked me t curate a palette of Farrow & Ball paint colors and wallpapers inspired by my favorite city in the world. I chose Hague Blue because it looks like the color of blue doors, […]
Sometimes I feel like I might have a nervous breakdown if it doesn’t warm up soon. But instead of letting myself get depressed, I’m focusing on getting ready for spring. I’ve been buying a few new things like the J.Crew shoes above but also trying to get my closets cleaned out and organized. I read […]
It’s really hard to look and feel chic when the windchill is 0 degrees but the fashion flock are doing a pretty good job this fashion week. Except for those wearing sandals with bare legs on snowy days. They just look stupid. I’ve tried to put together some of the more appropriate yet interesting looks. I […]
It’s absolutely freezing and snowy in New York today so all I can think about is spring. I think we could all use a little glimpse of green right now and this Cotswolds garden from House & Garden is the perfect midwinter pick me up. “Every gardener knows that under the cloak of winter […]
Rose are red, Violets are blue, I still think Valentine’s day is stupid, But I love you! XOXO, HC Christian Louboutin Corafront Flats – the perfect gift to yourself! via Martha Stewart Roger Vivier Love Clutch Paris and the Single Girl Book Clutch Charlotte Tilbury Makeup Bag
Even though it’s still snowing in the Northeast, I’m thinking about what shoes I want to buy for spring. After I saw Sincerely Jules above in the Aquazzura Christy Leather Point Toe Flats, I knew these might be a contender. While comfortable to walk in, the ties elevate the flat shoes to something a little more […]
The only bad thing about the fall fashion shows in February is that you want to buy everything you see and wear it immediately. This was never more true than at the Frame Denim Fall 2015 presentation. I’m not tall enough to wear the 1970’s inspired flares but I would love to be wearing the skirts […]
It’s always fun to watch the development of a fashion brand and see them evolve and grow. I liked Trademark when they first debuted but the new Fall 2015 collection looks like everything has really come together. I especially love the coats and that red dress. While some of the shapes might be classic, the details […]
I’m in the middle of cleaning out files of old tear sheets and magazines and some designers keep popping up. One of them is Belgian architect Vincent Van Duysen. His home in a 19th-century building in Antwerp has been featured in many publications and on many sites but it’s so good that it’s definitely worth revisiting. […]
The spring magazines are starting to hit the newsstands and I can’t wait to pick up the Spring 2015 fashion issue of the WSJ magazine on Saturday, February 14th. Dutch model Doutzen Kroes graces the cover and in a feature inside. She looks healthy and strong and makes me to eat healthy and work out more […]
