November’s sky is chill and drear, November’s leaf is red and sear. – Sir Walter Scott Photo by me.
I’ve visited Paris in September when it was still summer and also in November when it looked and felt like winter but I’ve never visited Paris in the height of autumn. After my trip last week, I now want to plan a trip for every October. It was even more beautiful than spring. But while they […]
The temperature has dropped and the heat has come on in my apartment building so that means it’s time to open up the coat closet. Camel coats are perfect for this time of year because they look lighter than most dark colored coats and they coordinate with almost every color. Camel looks great with white, […]
Now that autumn is here, I can’t wait to wear my favorite fisherman knit sweaters. I think most people wear them with jeans but I love the idea of pairing one with an ivory skirt or wide leg trousers as seen in the WSJ. magazine above (Coach, Carolina Herrera, and Max Mara). The October 2015 […]
Fall officially starts on Wednesday and there is already a little chill in the air. While I love spring, autumn is New York’s best season. I can’t wait for the leaves to turn and the light to lower. Here’s a little inspiration to get you excited too. All photos from tumblr and Pinterest.
Even though it’s supposed to be 93 degrees in New York today, I’m thinking about fall fashions. I look forward to cooler temperatures when I can wear jeans again. My favorite item to dress them up a little is a bow tie blouse. Luckily for me, there are quite a few options to choose from […]
I personally love fall. I can’t wait for it to arrive each year because autumn is New York’s best season. Fashion week starts right after the Labor Day holiday which starts things off with a bang. There is a palpable energy in the air. But I understand that not everyone feels the same way, especially young students […]
I’m having a great time in the Napa Valley. The weather has been perfect and the wine plentiful. What more could you ask for?! Bon week-end! View from Dutch Henry Winery by me.
“October extinguished itself in a rush of howling winds and driving rain and November arrived, cold as frozen iron, with hard frosts every morning and icy drafts that bit at exposed hands and faces.” – J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Photo by me.
New York is all dressed up for autumn and Halloween right now. The Upper East Side gets very into decorating for Halloween and some of the decorations are seriously scary. I prefer the chic and subtle approach and thought I would share some of my favorites with you as well as some turning leaves. Happy […]
Indian Summer is a lovely occurrence if it doesn’t involve 80% humidity. We’re sweating here in New York which makes it difficult to wear fall clothes. When the weather breaks, I’ll be looking for an olive green parka like these in the latest issue of Vogue magazine. They are perfect for the city or country living […]
“Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.” – Albert Camus Photo by me via Instagram.
I know a lot of you love my outfit posts so I’m going to try to start posting more. The only problem is that I subscribe to the “quality not quantity” rule of thumb when it comes to shopping for clothes for I end up wearing the same things a lot. My wardrobe is made […]
The New York Times Fashion section just posted this photo on their Instagram. They caught the actress Louise Grinberg leaving the Miu Miu fashion show in Paris. I love everything about this look from her hair to the ladylike blouse and grey cable knit sweater and pants paired with the burgundy bag. It’s the perfect […]
“I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers. It would be terrible if we just skipped from September to November, wouldn’t it?” – Lucy Maud Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables Photo by me.
My friend Heidi Wynne came over recently to show me her new cashmere collection for fall. Now that the weather seems to finally be turning cooler, I thought I would share her very chic new offerings with you. As you know, I couldn’t live without her wraps. I wore them almost everyday in Paris and […]
