Winter has returned to NYC but I know warm weather is just around the corner and that means weddings and other events are too. I’ve put together five great outfits from Saks to help get you ready for dress season. Saks Friends and Family 25% off new arrivals event is also happening until Thursday, March […]

It’s the first day of Spring and Aries season so even I’m ready to embrace color now. Luckily, Net-a-Porter has a lot of New Arrivals that will help you shake off the winter blues with shades of pink, lavender, yellow, green, and more. I’ve put three outfits together to help get you started but all […]

I’ve really been enjoying the fall fashion shows the last few weeks. I especially loved all the inspiring color combinations coming out of Milan and Paris. The best were at Ferragamo, Bally, Gucci, Bottega Veneta, and Dries Van Noten. The strongest colors weaving their way though many collections are green, from avocado to olive, and […]

Resort Ready with Saks

02 . 27 . 24

I don’t know if I’ll make it to Palm Beach this season but if you have a warm weather trip coming up, Saks has you covered with everything you need for fun in the sun. If you don’t have a trip planned, you can get a jump start on your summer wardrobe. Green was one […]

Yes, I wear a lot of neutrals but they work in the colder months in NYC. When I go for color and pattern, it’s for resort trips and summer soirees. Sézane just launched their latest collection today photographed in an Italian palazzo and I went a little nutty buying dresses and tops for warmer weather. […]

The New Moon in Capricorn today is a great day to restart your new year and a perfect time for a little wardrobe refresh. Since I didn’t post my usual “what I bought” post for December and Paris, I thought I would combine some of the favorite things I bought at the end of last […]

If you follow me on Instagram, then you already know that another thing I started to notice during my two weeks in Paris were brightly colored winter accessories. It was interesting to see since we always think of the French as wearing mostly neutrals but these bright pops of color add an uplifting mood booster […]

The temperature has finally turned cold this week in New York which means I’m swathed from head to toe in grey cashmere and wool. Grey is always my go to color for late fall and winter since it’s the perfect complement for my hair color and doesn’t show lint like black. It also pairs well […]

I used to get too excited about wearing fall clothes and would end up sweating to death in September. I finally learned my lesson and now I try to plan better transitional outfits for warmer weather. I’ve partnered with Net-a-Porter to help you figure out what to wear early in the season with their new […]

I realized that just telling you to add a pop of red to your outfits isn’t helpful without showing you how. I’ve put together five outfits from dressy to casual to give you an idea of how you can incorporate this bold hue into your wardrobe for late summer into fall. I loved the yellow […]

Color My World

08 . 09 . 23

I’m a little nervous about this post. I know it feels a bit out of left field but I like to keep you on your toes. Everyone is clamoring for fall fashions which usually means neutrals and wool fabrics but there is another theme for fall which is pastel and bright colors. You can wear […]

The Dries Van Noten store on Quai Malaquais is one of my favorite places in Paris. I always tell people to go inside to look around even if they can’t afford anything since the flowers, fashion, and interior design is infinitely inspiring. Down the way at 9 Quai Malaquais is the equally impressive men’s store […]

Spring Shoe Edit 2023

03 . 14 . 23

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 always loved the French phrase la rentrée which means the reentry. It encompasses back to school and back to work as everyone returns from their August holidays and tries to get back on track. They’ve already come back but as Americans go back to school and work after this long Labor Day weekend, it’s time to […]

The switch to Daylight Saving Time this weekend means we are about to spring forward to more light and warmer weather. After this past winter, I’m ready to add some colorful shoes to my wardrobe and Saks Fifth Avenue has the best styles to choose from right now. I’ve picked out my favorite pairs of […]
