Wicker Park

If there is one dream present I would want for my birthday this month, it would be a wicker Hermes bag like the one above. Since they are a bit pricey, I’ve put together some other options for myself and you. They would be perfect to carry for Easter and all your spring events. Bamboo Handle […]

I really wish the Spring/Summer 2017 Hatch Collection had been available when I was packing for my last trip to Mexico. The flowing dresses are perfect for the warmer weather so I’ll just have to wait until spring finally arrives in New York. Hatch Collection is billed as “chic, timeless and comfortable wardrobe essentials to wear […]

I didn’t really need another reason to visit London this year but the new exhibition House Style: Five Centuries of Fashion at Chatsworth has me checking flights. Hamish Bowles from Vogue was tapped by the Countess of Burlington to curate an exhibition that explores the fashionable history Chatsworth after she stumbled across some of the couture pieces while searching […]

It’s officially spring so it’s definitely time to think about your spring wardrobe. There are so many holidays and events coming up like Easter, Passover, Mother’s Day, graduations, and oh, my birthday, that it’s important to plan ahead. Whatever you need, Halsbrook is here to help. They carry so many chic options for day, evening, weekend […]

Snow Day Sale

03 . 14 . 17

If you’re stuck at home on this snow day, you are in luck. Net-a-Porter is offering US readers 10% off all purchases from March 14-20, 2017 with the code SPRING. I don’t remember them offering a discount on new merchandise before so this is an exciting sale to kick off your spring shopping. If you […]

If you are looking for a clutch to go with your new trench coat, I highly recommend the new Bottega Veneta Lauren 1980 Clutch. The bag is the exact same style that Lauren Hutton carried in the iconic film American Gigolo. Bottega Veneta had the bag in their archives and decided to release it again […]

In the Trenches

03 . 01 . 17

It’s been very warm in New York recently a little rainy. I heard we’re going to have a warmer than usual spring (take that groundhog), so I’m trying to get my warmer weather wardrobe in order. Even though I said I wasn’t allowed to buy anymore tan trenches, I already caved. I can’t help it. […]

This awards season was probably the first time many Americans have heard of Isabelle Huppert. The 63 year old French actress made her debut in 1971 and has been nominated for awards since 1975. I was lucky enough to be invited to a press screening of her recent film Elle for which she earned all those […]

Cross Your Heart

02 . 22 . 17

I’ve been shopping a little for spring already but I don’t really need too much this season. One thing I still need to find is a crossbody bag. I love my Celine tote bags for running errands and traveling since they hold so much but I would like a smaller crossbody bag for weekends.  I […]

Konmari Coat Closet

02 . 20 . 17

I wasn’t joking around about my need to Konmari my apartment. I spent my President’s Day editing and organizing my hall coat closet. I’m very lucky to have a decent sized coat closet in addition to a large clothes closet in my New York apartment. I’ve lived here for five and a half years though […]

Collecting and Konmari

02 . 19 . 17

I was supposed to go away this long holiday weekend but decided to postpone my trip until a new hotel in the area is ready for guests. So my plan is to really Marie Kondo my apartment and life which I just found out is called Konmari. Part of this getting rid of things and […]

I hadn’t intended to post about fashion two days in a row but after seeing the gorgeous Ralph Lauren fashion show yesterday, I felt compelled. The “see now, buy now” collection was shown in the Ralph Lauren Women’s Mansion that was filled with walls of orchids, the sound of birds, and even moving butterflies. Just […]

I heard that Samantha Cameron was working on a fashion line so I was excited to see that the final product is now available online here and here. Cefinn, named for her children, is an affordable collection of pieces that were conceived as stylish workwear but definitely look like they can be worn anywhere. As she […]

Fashion & Flowers

02 . 12 . 17

One of the most beautiful presentations each season takes place in the beautiful Washington Square home of designer Adam Lippes and this year is no exception. His fall 2017 collection is filled with chunky sweaters and easy separates that you wish were available in store now. The flower arrangements by Putnam & Putnam complement the floral prints […]

Valentine’s Day isn’t a lot of people’s favorite holiday. If you’re dating or married, it’s fraught with unrealistic expectations. If you’re single, it’s lonely and depressing. But it can also be fun to buy yourself, your friends, and your family a sweet treat. In honor of Valentine’s Day, I’ve put together a few great gifts that […]

Resort Ready

02 . 02 . 17

The only way to get through winter in New York is to escape to a tropical destination as many times as possible. I’m very lucky to be headed to Mexico tomorrow with Thirdhome and can’t wait for sunshine and warm temperatures. I have resort packing down to a science now but I could use a few […]

I’ve had Paris and the French fashion brand Sézane on the brain lately. The haute couture shows are going on in Paris right now which is making me want to book a trip. I haven’t been back since last March and I’m over due for a visit. One of the places I forgot to go […]
