They save the best for the last day of fashion week and that includes the Ralph Lauren runway show. It never disappoints, but then again, nothing that Ralph Lauren does ever disappoints.  He hosted a very chic and unique party in Central Park on Wednesday to launch his new Polo Ralph Lauren for women collection […]

In case you happened to miss it, Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of Vogue and the most important woman in the fashion word, answered 73 Questions online today.  The most important take away is to never wear head-to-toe black.  You can watch it here and see her office that was decorated by Carrier and Company. 

As much as I love attending runway shows, you often miss the details when the models are wafting past you and the person in front of you is taking pics on their ginormous iPad.  So it was lovely to see Oscar de la Renta post a multitude of detail photos of the clothing and accessories from their Spring 2015 […]

As everyone knows, some of the best looks each fashion week aren’t on the runways.  The street style looks are also looking much better this season.  Maybe it’s because it’s been so hot.  I think the weather has also been the reason we’re seeing so much white after Labor Day too. Gotta get it in […]

Fashion designer Adam Lippes presented his Spring 2015 collection in his duplex on Washington Square Park on Saturday. It was the perfect backdrop to his elegant and interesting designs. Too bad all fashion shows aren’t this chic. To view all the Adam Lippes looks for Spring 2015, check out Style.com and to read more about […]

It’s only Day 2 of New York Fashion Week but we’ve already seen a lot of great looks.  It’s so hot and steamy in the city right now that I wish I could wear most of them right now.  A white dress should be at the top of your shopping list for Spring 2015 but […]

If you ever saw the documentary, Scatter My Ashes at Bergdorf’s, you know that personal shopper Betty Halbreich has a great sense of humor.  The 86 year old (yes 86!) has written a book about her life that is not only funny but also poignant and inspiring.  I had the pleasure of meeting her last night […]

New York Fashion Week kicked off last night with a fete at Gracie Mansion and I noticed a theme among a few of the designers.  Jenna Lyons of J.Crew, Ralph Lauren, and Carolina Herrera all wore grey and white.  A great way to transition your white pieces for after Labor Day. I’ll be attending all […]

The French call it la rentrée. In America, we call it “back to school.” Whatever you call it, it’s time to stop goofing off and get back to work.  Hopefully, you have a chic desk to help you get over your depression that summer is unofficially over. If not, maybe these will inspire you to […]

I’m in the process of rethinking my apartment and could not be more inspired by the London home of Paolo Moschino and Philip Vergeylen. They gut renovated a flat in the Victoria area and reconfigured the strange layout to make a perfect pied-à-terre. It’s filled with an eclectic mix of antiques they find working for their […]

When I was thinking about what to post for the Labor Day holiday weekend, I couldn’t think of anything better than these photos of model Hilary Rhoda and Masters of Sex star Teddy Sears in Maine. They appeared in American Vogue in November 2013 and Vogue Australia in January 2014 and  epitomize preppy American chic. If […]

“All in all, it was a never-to-be-forgotten summer — one of those summers which come seldom into any life, but leave a rich heritage of beautiful memories in their going — one of those summers which, in a fortunate combination of delightful weather, delightful friends and delightful doing, come as near to perfection as anything […]

Many people will be heading to the Hamptons this weekend to spend the last unofficial weekend of summer at the beach.  The house in Something’s Gotta Give inspired the decor of many beach homes so I thought you would be interested to know that according to Curbed, the Shingle Style house that was used for the exterior shots has […]

I ordered a few books online and stopped by The Corner Bookstore today to make sure I have enough to read while I’m away for the long holiday weekend.  I picked up The Vacationers which already has me hooked but I also purchased Gone Girl so I can read it before the film version is released. After being […]

Even though it’s supposed to be 90 degrees in New York tomorrow, I’m shopping the fall collection that just debuted on Emerson Fry. It’s filled with cozy sweaters and chic coats as well a few pairs of lust worthy shoes and boots. Just as lovely as the clothes is the home in which they shoot […]

Due to a scheduling conflict the 66th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards were broadcast on a Monday night which threw everyone off.  But luckily the celebrities and their stylists weren’t thrown off.  Almost all of the presenters and nominees looked lovely but it was Lizzy Caplan above who stole the show.  Lizzy usually plays the comedic […]
