January may be cold and snowy but there are some great sales to make it better. Jayson Home has up to 75% off their chic selection of new and vintage furniture, rugs, accessories, objects, lighting, and more. I’ve selected a few of my favorite pieces to get you started. Happy Shopping! Balmoral Sofa Hayes Bar Cart […]
I love walking through the Pacific and Presidio Heights neighborhoods every time I visit San Francisco. I don’t remember seeing this Tudor house designed by Hillary Thomas which is a shame. The stunner featured in Architectural Digest is full of classic details and beautiful colors. I especially love the custom pale blue/grey color of the […]
I was trying to figure out the exact reason I love Cameron Kimber’s weekend home that I posted yesterday. I think it’s because it feels like spring when everything in New York is encased in snow and cold temperatures. I especially love the thread of green that weaves its way through the entire house. I’ve […]
Someone in the Wall Street Journal declared that floral prints are out this year but don’t tell that to Australian interior designer Cameron Kimber. His country house is filled with floral prints and chintz. One of which is the same Lee Jofa Althea print that I have in my own apartment so needless to say, […]
After the snow comes the Dr. Zhivago level cold this weekend. Perfect time to putter around your home and clean out your closet. You probably picked up some presents during the holidays and perhaps some good deals during the sales. Why not make room by donating what you no longer wear to charity. It would […]
Interior designer Alyssa Kapito created this room for the 2017 Holiday House. While you may have already seen it all over the internet, I specifically saved it for this week. It looked like the perfect clean and neutral space to start off the new year. Then last night, I came across a great article Creating […]
I hope you all had a wonderful Holiday! I had grand plans to post all weekend including a recap of my Christmas doors of New York. But then I decided to just take some time off. You can see many of my favorite doors in my Christmas Highlights on Instagram which is only available on the […]
I can’t wait to clean up all Christmas clutter currently overtaking my living room, especially after seeing this minimal chic apartment in Greenwich Village. It belongs to Alexendra O’Neill who founded the fashion line Makarian and was just featured on Vogue.com. She gut renovated the space but didn’t strip it of its charm. Moldings were […]
Traditional design often gets a bad rap but in the right hands, it can look fresh instead of fuddy duddy. The clients who hired interior designer Miles Redd and architect Gil Schafer to design their San Francisco home actually suggested the look and had Pinterest boards to help convey their vision. The wife said, “Antiques are […]
If you follow me on Instagram, then you will have seen these photos already but I wanted to make sure I share Roman and Williams GUILD NY with everyone. GUILD NY is the new lifestyle space by Roman and Williams at 53 Howard Street that includes a flower shop, restaurant, and mercantile space that all meld […]
I’ve been thinking about California a lot lately and my friends in Los Angeles dealing with the fires. One friend posted a video on Instagram of all the burned out homes in his parent’s neighborhood. Miraculously, his parent’s home was the only left standing and untouched. A true Christmas miracle. The new home of Nate […]

I saw Jenna Lyons at the goop pop up shop party Monday night. She was surrounded by admirers so I didn’t get a chance to talk to her to find out what she’s up to now. My question was answered by the feature in the December 3rd issue of T Magazine which is online now. […]
The continuous negative news cycle has me seeking out beauty in movies, books, and museum exhibitions. It’s one of the reasons I made it a point to see Call Me By Your Name this past weekend. As I mentioned in my post Upcoming Oscar Worthy Films, the film is getting the most Oscar buzz right now. […]
If you missed out on buying Steven Gambrel‘s townhouse at 250 West 10th Street, you have another opportunity to make it yours. It was purchased by someone who rented it out to Courtney Love who wallpapered over some of the rooms and allegedly started a fire. Those rooms have been repainted and the home has […]
Veranda is one of the only magazines, if not the only one, to feature homes decorated for Christmas each year. I love seeing all the beautiful holiday decor in elegant interiors especially this one by Alidad in London. Of course, it helps to have rich red rooms as a backdrop but amaryllis and fruits would look […]
Jacques Grange is one the world’s most exclusive interior designers. He started his career under Henri Samuel and honed his craft under Didier Aaron before going on to decorate for his own clients which include Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé, Paloma Picasso, Terry de Gunzburg, Valentino, Sofia Coppola, Aerin Lauder, and Lauren Santo Domingo […]
