I’m heading out to the Hamptons again this weekend and wish I was staying at a house this chic! There is nothing that says beach house or summer more than blue and white. This one happens to have been designed by my uber talented interior design friend David Lawrence. It was also featured on the […]

It was a scorcher in New York today with temperatures reaching into the 90’s and all I could think about was jumping into a nice cold pool. Since that isn’t possible, I’m going to stare at these chic pools and see if that helps cool me down. If not, I might have to settle for […]

Model Raquel Zimmerman looks amazingly beautiful in this shoot for Vogue but if you ask me, there isn’t nearly enough of Glee’s Matthew Morrison. Who knew there was a six pack hiding under those buttondowns and sweater vests! Photos by Mikael Jansson for Vogue

I’m not the only who is smitten with Sag Harbor. Artist Paul Rafferty, who currently has a solo show at the Grenning Gallery, spends time painting plein air on the East End and has captured the beauty of the beach as well as everyday life around town. The small studies are taken back to his […]

If you asked me before for my favorite town in the Hamptons, I would have said Southampton without missing a beat. It’s pretty and perfectly manicured and has lots of cute stores but this weekend, I finally succumbed to the charms of Sag Harbor. It has such a quaint Main Street, USA feeling that I […]

After you visit Ruby Beets, make sure you head next door to JED. I could have also bought everything in this chic shop. It’s a mix of French antiques and new pieces that all have a certain je ne sais quoi. While some pieces were expensive, those two chairs out front were only $450 for […]

This weekend, I spent visiting all my favorite stores in Sag Harbor which included Ruby Beets, a favorite of almost every designer. It’s a small space but it’s packed to the rafters with new and antique treasures. I especially loved all the lamps and photographs of sea and sky by Mary Ellen Bartley but in […]

I’m off to the Hamptons this weekend and you know this trip wasn’t without some serious outfit consideration. While the city calls for sophisticated ensembles for meetings and business, the Hamptons allows me to get my Prep on. It’s also about 10 degrees cooler which requires layers which is why I pulled out my navy […]

Hope whatever you do this weekend brings a smile to your face and puts a spring in your step! Photos by Paul Costello

Seems like Harper’s Bazaar has decided to shoot their cover stars every month in fabulous homes. I’m certainly not complaining. It’s better than a boring backdrop and in the case of the June 2010 issue with Katherine Heigl, they added some pretty pooches too! I hope my issue comes today! Photos by Alexi Lubomirski

I love finding cool shops in New York and recently my friend Jessica introduced me to Silver Lining Opticians (100 Thompson Street, New York, NY 10012, 212-274-9191) which is beyond cool. They have outfitted some of the hottest musicians including Rihanna, Jay Z, Kayne West, and Katy Perry in chic shades but they also have […]

When I posted about Helen and Tim Schifter’s fabulous Hamptons Hideaway in January, I mentioned wanting to see more photos and I’m happy to have finally found some! The photo above is a look at their living room which I was missing before and there’s even a view of the pool now. I’m going to […]

The surfer images from Vogue reminded me that I took some photos of surfers myself while I was in LA. I made Christian of Maison21 take me to Malibu so I could see what all the hype was about. I wasn’t that impressed with what looked like a trailer park plopped down on the side […]

This season of Gossip Girl has been less than stellar but it’s still my Monday night guilty pleasure. The season finale is tonight and I’m hoping that I can make it home in time to catch it. But even more exciting is that on Wednesday, the new June 2010 issue of Vogue will hit the […]

My flower obsession continues with the new Prada Prints Collection! Remember when Carrie exclaimed “Hello Lover” in reference to some shows in a store window on Sex and the City? Well, that’s what I thought when I saw this fabulous collection! The floral and print fabrics are from the Prada archives and the silhouettes were […]

The one thing I miss about living in the city is being able to eat al fresco. I have on occasion eaten in the park but a picnic a far cry from the civilized settings of these outdoor dining tables. Bon appetit! Christopher Baker Schnabel Residence Christopher Baker Thomas O’Brien ELLE DECOR June 2010 Vogue […]
