Spring Shoe Edit 2023

03 . 14 . 23

It’s been snowing almost all day in NYC so what better time to start thinking about spring shoes. I’ve put together 24 chic styles from flats to heels and in varying price points so hopefully, there is something for everyone who needs a pick me up right now. These tan leather sandals have the look […]

I’ve sent out almost 450 Paris Guide orders just since the beginning of the year which is no surprise since Paris continues to be the number one travel destination in the world. The number one question I’m always asked is what to wear in Paris during specific months of the year. It’s definitely harder to […]

Even though the month is more than half over, there is still a lot to look forward to this December. Here are some things to see, do, and most importantly watch if you are stuck at home due to the weather. If you’re in New York over the holidays, make time to visit the Bard […]

Back by popular demand is my annual post of what I’ve bought myself for Christmas with a bonus of what I bought myself in Paris. With a few other purchases thrown in for good measure. I had originally intended to buy a Max Mara Icon Coat in Paris because all Max Mara coats in Europe […]

Holiday parties and events are back in full force. If you need an outfit for a night on the town or New Year’s Eve, Saks Fifth Avenue has you covered from sparkly dresses to evening makeup. I’ve picked out a few of my favorites to help get you started. If I was going to a […]

Too Ghōud to be True

If you follow me on Instagram, you know I was recently in Paris for two weeks. My favorite thing to do is photograph what the Parisians are wearing. It was even more interesting this trip since the first week looked and felt like autumn and the second week looked and felt like winter. I would […]

The holiday shopping season is in full swing, and my friend Heidi Wynne’s classic collection of luxurious cashmere wraps and cozy wool sweaters make the perfect gift. Her fair isle knits are Made in Scotland, and her timeless fisherman knits are made in a family run mill in Ireland. Heidi is offering my readers a […]

As I get ready for my upcoming trip to Paris, I want to pack comfortable clothes that do double duty and I’ve found the best pieces at Talbots. This grey cashmere turtleneck can be worn with these knit wide leg trousers in addition to jeans and skirts. These pants are so comfortable I could even […]

I know we still have to get through Halloween but it’s also time to start thinking about your holiday shopping. A lot of popular presents sell out early every year so I always try to post them first so you don’t miss out. I don’t think there is anyone who doesn’t like Ina Garten. I’m […]

It’s funny, How to Spend It, now HTSI, put Fair Isle sweaters on the cover of their magazine last year right before I posted about Fair Isle sweaters and they’ve done it again this year. It must be kismet. It was cold enough to wear one today so it feels like the perfect time to […]

I’ve always had a soft spot for Talbots. I still remember a grey wool turtleneck dress I wore for years until it finally had to be retired. Talbots to me has always been a place where I could find pieces to wear to work and on the weekends. I’ve picked out an outfit you can […]

I’ve had a lot of questions about what I plan to pack for my Thanksgiving trip to Paris. Even though I don’t leave for five weeks, I’ve been trying to get my wardrobe in order so I’m not racing around at the last minute. I’m very glad I started early too because the tailor I […]

I had a moment in late summer when I decided to replace a lot of the makeup I use. After two years of not going many places and not wearing a lot of makeup, I felt like it was time for a fresh start. Of course, you need a good base for makeup and I […]

Sorry for the radio silence on the blog. It’s been a busy week. I’ve been working on my annual What I Bought for Fall post but decided to add How I Plan to Wear Everything since you all seem to prefer when I post full outfits. It’s still a bit warm in New York right […]

I featured my friend Heidi Wynne’s luxurious cashmere wraps years ago in my post What Should I Pack for Paris. Her cashmere scarves are still the perfect travel companion, and she has since expanded her collection to include fisherman knit sweaters from Ireland and fair isle knits from one of the oldest mills in Scotland. […]

I’ve always loved the French phrase la rentrée which means the reentry. It encompasses back to school and back to work as everyone returns from their August holidays and tries to get back on track. They’ve already come back but as Americans go back to school and work after this long Labor Day weekend, it’s time to […]

Whether you’re still on vacation or are at home because the kids are already back in school, there are some great sales happening this Labor Day weekend that you will definitely want to check out.
