New York fashion week just ended yesterday and I’m definitely still recovering. While I take a moment to finally catch up on my emails and edit my photos, I leave you with this fashionable abode. Domaine Home posted some photos this week and it reminded me how much I love this apartment owned by the […]
I mentioned the house that Karl Lagerfeld called “the chicest house in America” in yesterday’s post and now the pics are up on Town & Country. I highly recommend running out to buy the October issue to read the whole story. These photos makes me even more excited for Stephen Sills’ new book Stephen Sills: […]
Since I’ve been focusing on fashion for much of this week, I thought it might be good to get back to some interior design. I am loving this Santa Monica home designed by Tim Barber Ltd. Architecture and decorated by Kristen Panitch Interiors. The kitchen is going in my future home file and I bet it […]
If you haven’t picked up the September 2013 issue of Elle Decor, you are missing out. I’ve been so tired lately of magazines that keep featuring the same homes and people and this issue delivers nothing but newness. The Left Bank Paris apartment designed by François-Joseph Graf for a mystery client is my favorite and […]
Fall is chock full of fun premiers including the new Carine Roitfeld documentary Mademoiselle C. It follows the former Vogue Paris editor-in-chief as she prepares to launch her new magazine CR Fashion Book and become a grandmother. It also gives a peek into her chic and minimal Paris apartment of which I’ve posted a few […]
I was thinking today how much I wish I could have my ugly wood floors refinished or painted when I came across this room. It was designed by San Francisco based interior designer Catherine Kwong for the San Francisco Decorator’s Showcase and features fabulous painted floors. The abstract white streaks act as the perfect modern […]
I came across some new photos of Axel Vervoordt and his gardens recently that were definitely worth sharing. They also reminded me that I still haven’t been to Belgium to visit his incredible gallery. An autumn trip might just have to be in order. All photos via Pinterest.
I’m packing my bag and getting ready for a weekend getaway in the Hamptons. I always feel bad that the Hamptons gets such a bad rap. Granted the traffic is hideous and the party scene can be is a bit ridiculous but it’s the closest place we harried New Yorkers have to unwind. No wonder […]
Sometimes I leaf through my new magazines and then throw them on the pile to be fully read later. Sometimes I like a particular interior but forget about it until it pops up later for further consideration. That was the case with this house in Georgia designed by Furlow Gatewood that was featured in Veranda […]
The good thing about getting older is that everyone you know is doing something fabulous with their life. The bad thing is that people you know and admire start passing away unexpectedly. Today I learned of the death of one of my favorite London based interiors designers, David Collins. To say he was talented would […]
The Musée Nissim de Camondo has a graceful and elegant entry and staircase that seemed to deserve its own post. It would have certainly impressed guests to the house and you can certainly see the influence of the Petit Trianon on the staircase and black and white marble floor. If you can’t make the trip out to […]
It’s my dream to spend time with my ultimate style idol, Carolina Herrera. Until that actually happens, I’ll make due with these images of her very chic studio via Vogue and her instagram feed. Photos by Victoria Will via Vogue
A long holiday weekend in the Hamptons is great until you start seeing everyone’s instagram pics from the Mediterranean. Makes me want to rethink my travel plans for next year. Then I came across the photo above that Minnie Mortimer pinned on Pinterest and found that it was from a house in Anacapri that the […]
I’ve seen photos of Hudson, New York based artist and designer Frank Faulkner‘s home before but I never looked at them all together until yesterday. These actually might encompass more than one home but they give you a sense of his great style and ability to mix flea market finds with aplomb. The living room […]
Since I’ve been stuck on France for a bit, maybe it’s time to mix things up again. I just found the home of Madrid interior designer Maria de la Osa online and love her eclectic style already. She has a great eye for mixing different periods and styles and I look forward to seeing more of […]
Since I know not everyone is interested in my Parisian slideshow, I thought I’d mix things up. Of course, I have Paris on the brain so we’re not getting too far afield. I posted some pics of the Paris apartment of designers Patrick Gilles and Dorothee Boissier of Gilles et Boissier a little while back […]
I had an amazing time in Paris but it was much too short so I am already planning another trip this fall. I can’t wait to spend more time exploring new parts of my favorite city. The highlight of this trip was finding the twice a year brocante around the rue de Bretagna in the […]
