Just a quick note to let you all know that I’m having a wonderful time in Paris with Chanel to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Sublimage. We’ve been scheduled from morning until night with amazing activities and meals. I look forward to sharing a more in depth look at my trip after I return but wanted to […]

It’s funny how white apartments might be boring elsewhere but always look chic in Paris. Such is the case of the apartment of jewelry designer Gaia Repossi. It helps that hers has high windows and beautiful wood floors that set a great backdrop for her furniture and art. It also looks like there is an interesting upstairs […]

I’m long over due for a trip to Los Angeles and now I have another reason to book a ticket.  The Apartment by The Line has just opened on the iconic tree lined Melrose Place. Co-founder and executive creative director Vanessa Traina Snow and creative director Melanie Glass have created a home like space that will evolve on a […]

Someone posted one of my photos from Alexa Hampton’s Study in Contrasts bedroom for Mark Hampton LLC from the 2012 Kips Bay Decorator Show House this morning and it reminded me how much I love this room. It’s not just a great example of how you can decorate with traditional and classic elements in a contemporary […]

I came across the work of designer Robert Brown on Pinterest recently and fell in love with this bedroom suite. I love how the large room has become intimate with distinct areas for sleeping, sitting, and working. It’s also great inspiration for how to set up a large studio apartment. Needless to say, I also […]

I came across a photo of the kitchen of this home that I really loved before realizing the entire house was just as beautiful. The double-fronted Georgian townhouse was designed by Caroline Harrowby for a couple who had watched the house for years before it came up for sale. It features the comfortable relaxed design I love about […]

I’m off on the train to Venice today. Until I have time to write a post, I suggest you check out this very chic apartment in Paris designed by Studio Ko. It was featured in T magazine this weekend.  I love that you can read it online like the real magazine if you happen to […]

I was already working on a post of writer and editor J.J. Martin’s Milan home when I was invited to a party last night to celebrate the launch of her new La Double J Editions dress collection with Mantero at Potafiori with Matches Fashion. The long seasonless dress comes in seven vintage patterns from Mantero’s archives. The […]

I absolutely love Merchant Ivory films so it’s not surprising that I would love the home that the duo shared in Hudson, New York. They bought the 1805 Federal 19-room home built for Jacob Rutsen Van Rensselaerin 1975 for about $105,000. It’s filled with furniture and mementos from Merchant Ivory films such as Jefferson in Paris and […]

Most of you know that One Kings Lane sells chicly curated furniture and accessories online but I’m sure not as many know that you can now shop the One Kings Lane Studio in person in New York.  The Studio is a new showroom located at their Hudson Street headquarters set up like a large apartment which […]

I came across this Madrid apartment designed by Luis Puerta recently on Nueva Estilo. The Google translation of the Spanish article leaves something to be desired but from what I can make out, the plan was to allow the apartment to “breathe” with clean spaces and “less is better” aesthetic. I personally love the mix of contemporary […]

Europe has already gone back to work and school but we have one last long summer weekend to relax before it’s back to our reality. I hope your summer weekend home is as lovely as this one on Long Island designed by Carrier & Company. I don’t think there is one thing I would change about the […]

When I was cleaning out stacks of old magazines recently, I tore out a feature on fashion designer Peter Som‘s apartment from years ago.  It got me wondering when we might see it profiled again and funny enough, it was featured on Lonny.com last week.  Turns out that Peter expanded the apartment in the last […]

I’m not a huge fan of color in my own life but that doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate it, especially when it’s done exceptionally well.  I actually wouldn’t expect anything less from interior designer Alex Papachristidis whose elegant pre-war New York apartment was just featured on One Kings Lane. Alex is also a master at […]

I didn’t even know Francisco Costa’s apartment was on the market before hearing that it had possibly already sold. The space designed by Mark Cunningham is located at 220 Madison Avenue near the Morgan Library. The location makes it convenient for both Francisco to get to work in the Fashion District and his partner John DeStefano, a horse […]

While Peter Copping and his husband Rambert Rigaud sold their Paris apartment when Peter was appointed the artistic director of Oscar de la Renta in New York, they weren’t going to give up their Normandy retreat. You can see why from the new photos they’ve posted on Instagram. You may remember that I posted some photos from […]

Some of you might have read that I was preparing for a photo shoot in my apartment this week.  I wasn’t sure if I was allowed to tell you who it was with but I can announce that the wonderful team from One Kings Lane shot my apartment today. The beautiful flowers above were brought […]
