Fade to Black

08 . 16 . 17

The cooler weather in New York last week and San Francisco over the weekend had me reaching for black. It’s usually the first way I start to transition to fall when I’m sick of bright colors and patterns. If you’re feeling the same, here’s some inspiration for you. Joya Composition No.6 scented candle Bow Tie […]

Nordstrom Fall Finds

08 . 10 . 17

We’ve had a little cooler weather in New York recently which had me thinking of fall. It’s usually around this time of year when I want to burn all my summer clothes and start over and there’s no better place to start than Nordstrom. They have the best selection online already and their free shipping […]

This is your public service reminder that the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale ends on Sunday, August 6th. On Monday, prices go back up on fashion and accessories for women, men, and children, as well as items for the home and beauty products. I’ve put together one last outfit to showcase just what great buys you can […]

If I could, I would wear jeans, a blouse or sweater, and flats all year long. Unfortunately, you can’t wear jeans in New York when it’s hazy, hot, and humid so I live in dresses all summer. I’ve had a hard time finding new options lately but got lucky with three new purchases this week […]

Sam Shepard’s Style

08 . 01 . 17

American playwright, author, screenwriter, actor, and director Sam Shepard passed away last week. He grew up in the Midwest but moved to New York in the 1960’s where he hung out with Patti Smith and Robert Maplethorpe and went on tour with Bob Dylan. He wrote 44 plays including Buried Child but most people probably […]

I didn’t want to leave my male readers out of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale so I’ve put together pieces that can take you from work to weekend. This sale is a great time to get a deal on pieces to upgrade your wardrobe and stock up on basics. Every man needs a navy suit in […]

There are so many great fall fashions and accessories on sale during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale this year that I want to buy them all. As I mentioned the other day, you can only purchase during Early Access if you have a Nordstrom card. You’re definitely going to want to get one once you see […]

I always enjoy seeing what fashion editors and influencers wear during the Haute Couture fashion shows every January and July. The attendees are usually dressed in more relatable and inspiring outfits instead of the over-the-top attention seeking ensembles usually seen during the ready to wear shows. Vogue Paris always seems to capture the best looks […]

The Duchess of Cambridge wore another pretty white lace dress to Royal Ascot in June. Last year, it was by Dolce and Gabbana. This year, it was a custom white lace dress by Alexander McQueen based on Alexander McQueen Lace Mini Dress that still available in one size here. Since her exact dress is not available, […]

I love this outfit that Aerin Lauder worn in Paris this week. I had a feeling the blouse was Chloé and actually came across it while I was out shopping today. I will have to ask her where her jeans are from since they are the perfect shade of blue. While she accessorized her outfit with a […]

My friend Alice first introduced me to The White Company years ago but for some reason I never visited their stores in London. Now I don’t have to travel across the pond to experience their stylish and timeless products. Their new store on lower Fifth Avenue in the Flatiron district carries a myriad of candles […]

The much anticipated Net-a-Porter 50% off sale has started today and there is a lot of great pieces available. I’ve put together three summer outfits to get you started. Happy Shopping! Belted Voile Dress above Python Sandals Leather Shoulder Bag Ceramic Earrings – these aren’t on sale but you can afford to splurge when you […]

As you know, there is nothing I love more than when fashion and interior design collide. No where is this more exciting than the partnership between Aquazzura and de Gournay. You may have already seen them online but the five styles of the Aquazzura for de Gournay shoe collection are finally available exclusively at Matchesfashion.com. They […]

Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 14th. Time to start thinking about what you will buy the mothers in your life and what you might wear if it’s your special day. Nordstrom has you covered for both with lots of beautiful dresses and Mother’s Day gifts. The free shipping and returns makes shopping at Nordstrom extremely easy. […]

Longtime readers will remember my love of dresses. They are an easy item to throw on for a meeting or a casual weekend event. Add a different belt, shoes and bag and you have a totally different look too. That’s why I ordered this Everlane Linen  Shirtdress the minute it launched online. I can already […]

The weather in New York has been vacillating between hot and cold. That hasn’t stopped me from buying four new pairs sandals for spring and summer. In my defense, they were all 40-50% off and everyone knows you have to buy what you need before you need it or else it will be sold out. […]

Spring Uniform

04 . 12 . 17

I’m lucky in that the same people don’t see me every work day. That means I can wear uniform and no will know. I don’t wear the same exact clothes but a variation on a theme. I came across this outfit on Marchesfashion.com and it looks like the perfect uniform for everyone this spring. Of course, you […]
