I always forget that I have pretty good skin until someone compliments me. It isn’t something that comes without a lot of effort or products however. Any time I think I use a lot of products though, I am comforted by the fact that Eva Chen, former beauty editor and now editor in chief of […]
I would like to say that spring is in the air but the windchill is making it feel like 9 degrees in New York this morning. The only thing that gets me through winter is looking at spring clothes hanging in my closet standing ready to be worn the minute the weather warms up. It’s […]
It’s Monday and it’s snowing again. A perfect day for a blue post. Gianvito Rossi Pumps Lauren Santo Domingo La Perla Lace Bra
People seem to have a love hate relationship with Milan but if every place looked as chic as T’a Milano, I’m sure everyone would love the city. The chocolate shop and bistro is a contemporary update to the Alemagne’s family business. The blue velvet banquettes and citron upholstery are the perfect complement to the marble floors and brass accents. […]
As many of you know, I don’t love pink but I do love a pale buff version of pink. While I’m not ready to break out bold colors for spring just yet, I am adding a bit of buff to my grey ensembles. It’s a color that plays well with others in fashion and interior design. […]
The February 2015 issue of Vogue is chock full of inspiring interiors including the home of fashion designer Adam Lippes in the Berkshires. While I’m sure it’s blanketed in snow right now, I love that they photographed it while it was still summer. I think we could all use a little green right now. […]
I am embarrassed to say that I’ve never visited The American Museum of Natural History in New York. After seeing the cute Crewcuts girls and boys who were photographed among the exhibitions for the J.Crew February 2015 Style Guide, I will definitely be planning a visit soon. J.Crew also collaborated on a line of graphic tees with the […]
Our blizzard turned out to be a bust but it’s still snowy and cold. It’s definitely a good time to think about another warm weather getaway like Harbour Island in the Bahamas. Vogue features the Hibiscus Hill home and rental properties of India Hicks and David Flint Wood in the new February 2015 issue and […]
In one of my pre-blizzard trips to the grocery store, I picked up an issue of People magazine. In the back, was an article on the upcoming sale of Lauren Bacall’s treasures at Bonhams auction house on March 31, 2015. It will include artwork, jewelry, and other pieces from her apartment in the fabled Dakota apartment […]
Men’s fashion week has been taking place the last few weeks in Europe. The Fashion Director of Esquire magazine, Nick Sullivan, has been making the rounds and also posting some fun “double take” photos on Instagram. Not sure if they are taken at the time or combined in PhotoShop but the photos combine an […]
I had the pleasure of dining at The Polo Bar which is connected to the new Polo Ralph Lauren store on Fifth Avenue last evening. The food was fabulous and the interior was as chic as expected, if not better. While I loved all the equestrian paintings and polo memorabilia, it was the green tile […]
I was cleaning out tear sheets this week and came across this spread from Vogue Australia recently . It features model Arizona Muse in “louche locks, easy elegance, a cinematic polish and masculine lilt recalling the iconic insouciance of Lauren Bacall.” It sounds as lovely as it looks and makes me wish I wasn’t pulling on […]
Even though it feels like I just got back from my summer sojourn in Paris, I’m already planning for my next trip. Michelle Adams and I will be in the City of Light for Paris Fashion Week in March with lots of big adventures on the docket. I can’t wait to attend chic fashion shows, […]
I keep seeing yellow everywhere I look online lately. Maybe it’s a reaction to the grey and cold winter months but it is a cheerful and hopeful color. According to Sensational Color, the color yellow “shines with optimism, enlightenment, and happiness. Shades of golden yellow carry the promise of a positive future. Yellow will advance […]
Dakota Johnson is on the cover of the February 2015 issue of Vogue to promote her upcoming movie 50 Shades of Grey. What’s more exciting is that the accompanying feature was shot by Mario Testino in Elizabeth and David Netto‘s Richard Neutra mid-century home in Los Angeles. While you can pick up the magazine this […]
“If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.” – Martin Luther King, Jr.
January 17th was French style icon Françoise Hardy’s 71st birthday. I am embarrassed to say I didn’t realize the model, actress, and musician was still alive. This is probably because all of the photos I’ve ever seen of her are from the 1960’s and she is painfully shy so she doesn’t make too many appearances. It is […]
Men’s Fashion Week is in full swing and as usual, some of the best looks are off the runway. A few of the attendees look like they walked out of a Cary Grant movie but if I man wants to wear a three piece suit and a fedora in real life, who are we to judge. They […]
Pre-fall is the collection of clothing that usually arrives in stores in August, if not before. Some people prefer these fashions because they seem to be a little less trend driven. They also don’t get as much press so you don’t get sick of them before you ever get to wear them. I also love […]
Yesterday was a very exciting day. I hit 50,000 followers on Instagram and want to thank you all for your continued support and encouragement. Instagram is my happy place and unlike some people, I only post photos I’ve personally taken with my iPhone which makes this milestone that much more special. It’s hard to find […]
