Chic in Capri

06 . 30 . 19

Every once in a while there is an event that overtakes Instagram, in a good way, and this week it was the Zimmermann press trip to Capri. The fashion brand had invited a select group of celebrities and influencers to the idyllic island to celebrate the opening of their 35th store. While Zimmermann dresses usually […]

I can’t believe the year is half over and the Fourth of July is next week. I love Independence Day celebrations and the preppy red, white, and blue fashion, accessories, and decor that let Americans show their patriotism. If you need some updates to get you into the holiday spirit, I’ve picked out my favorites […]

Summer officially started last Friday and now we’re bracing for a heat wave in New York this week. This makes it the perfect time to wear white dresses. I only have one in my closet right now so I’m searching for some new options. If you are as well, I’ve pulled together some of my […]

I’m in Sag Harbor this week and I’ve already done a little shopping. It was warmer than expected when I arrived so I bought this white shirt and yesterday I finally succumbed to the Birkenstock trend with this white pair from the Goop pop up shop. Since it’s raining here today and I am delaying […]

No one does beach and nautical chic like photographer Matt Albiani and Ron Brand. Matt has an entire book devoted to the subject, Lifeguard on Duty, and the duo own the Mate Gallery store in Montecito curated with maritime accessories, book, objects, photography, and more. Now you can experience their aesthetic in a summer rental […]

If you’re looking for the perfect hostess gift or an update for your summer table, Williams-Sonoma is currently offering 30% off the Aerin Collection. I love the patterned plates and wicker accessories. There is definitely something for everyone. And this is not a sponsored post. Just a public service announcement.

I used to visit Maine in the summer when I first moved to New York but I’m well overdue for a trip now. It’s a popular destination for those looking for relief from the heat in beautiful natural surroundings so it’s no wonder that Gil Schafer fell in love with the Pine Tree State growing […]

My navy jacket from Sézane is sold out but there are other fabric options available. Another great option is this navy Blazé Milano Spirit herringbone double-breasted silk blazer. I’ve been coveting one of their blazers for years and the sale makes it the perfect time to pick one up. This striped boatneck t-shirt was such […]

If you’ve ever driven through East Hampton, then you’ve probably seen this beautiful white house that sits at the intersection of Main Street and Woods Lane. It’s currently on the market for $12.5 Million which means we can all see inside now. The house at 6 Woods Lane was completely renovated in 1992 but was […]

Now that you’ve taken care of your closet with all the fabulous fashions on sale, you can update your home. Serena & Lily has everything you need for summer at 20% off during their Memorial Day Sale with the code SUMMERPREP. Serena & Lily believes living well begins at home and they’ve got everything you […]

It was so cold and rainy in New York this past month that it was hard to get excited about getting dressed every day. Now that it looks like summer weather has finally arrived it’s time to break out the pretty dresses and accessories. I’ll pulled together my favorites that are perfect for graduations, weddings, […]

As I mentioned yesterday, Mezzaore Hotel and Thermal Spa is part of the Pellicano Group of hotels. The iconic coral exteriors and crenellated watchtower built high up on the cliff in the 16th and 17th centuries has amazing views that the group could not resist. The family acquired the Ischia property six months ago and […]

It looks like the weather is finally going to warm up this week. I think we can all use a little spring right now but after seeing the new Weekend Max Mara Nantucket collection, I want to jump directly to summer. The collection modeled by Hailey Baldwin Bieber is a collaboration with interior designer Anthony Baratta […]

I need to plan another warm weather getaway since I just received a beautiful new dress from Danielle Fichera.  I love her collections because every one of her pieces is designed with sustainably sourced fabrics and made in the New York garment district. Danielle is known for her use of fil coupé fabric and I […]

As many of you get ready to jet off to warmer climates soon, you will definitely want to order something for your trip from the new luxury resort collection from Danielle Fichera. I had a chance to visit her showroom last month and I can attest that each piece is beautifully made in Italian fabrics […]

I stopped by the Ralph Lauren Ladies Mansion last week to check out the new Ralph Lauren Home collections. Islesboro, the prettiest late summer collection was inspired by the “storied refinement of a grand coastal estate, where archival patterns and vintage inspired furnishings meet refreshing ease ad enveloping warmth.” Islesboro is a lovely island off […]

Does it feel like everyone you follow on Instagram has been to Positano, Capri, and/or Greece this summer?  Now that it’s the end of August, all of Europe is en vacances since they all take their holiday at the same time. This post is an ode to these vacations. Enjoy! Striped Stretch Cotton Blend Sweater […]
