It’s finally warmed up and I’m ready to lighten up my wardrobe and my apartment for spring, I’ve put together the chicest bags, furniture, and accessories in wicker, raffia, and straw to change up your outfits and interiors. I bought this Celine Medium Triomphe Basket Bag last year right before quarantine. It was my birthday […]

Spring has definitely sprung in New York but we’re still waiting for everything to bloom. (The photo above is from a few years ago.) It really feels almost back to normal though with the amount of people out and about thanks to the vaccine. But it’s going to rain all day tomorrow so if you […]

I feel like Easter is going to be big holiday this year due to the vaccines. Family members will finally be able to gather and celebrations will be about more than just Easter. I’ve put some gift and decor ideas together for the entire to make it extra special this year. Skip the mess and […]

I’ve written about my Instagram friend Remy Renzullo before and he’s a name you will no doubt be seeing much more of in the future. His New York apartment, which he’s since moved out of, was featured in Architectural Digest last year and his London cottage has recently been published in House and Garden UK. […]

I had my hair highlighted for the first time in five months yesterday so I wanted to buy a new Christophe Robin deep conditioner to keep it from getting dry. That’s when I discovered that the SkinStore is having an amazing Anniversary Sale with up to 50% off select best selling brands until March 23, […]

It feels like we’ve lost so many wonderful collectors in the last few years. The art and personal treasures from the Paris apartment of artist Pierre Le Tan are up for auction at Sotheby’s this Tuesday and Wednesday. Included in the sale are furniture including the lovely early Louis XV amaranth and varnished bronze commode […]

It was over 70 degrees yesterday but we might get snow flurries next week so dressing in March and even April can be a challenge. This year, I’m inspired by Sofia Coppola who has the perfect wardrobe for unpredictable weather. Her closet staples include navy sweaters, black pants, blue shirts, navy coats, striped tops, ballet […]

Since not many people are going into the office right now, there is no reason to carry a giant tote bag filled with a laptop, gym clothes, and everything else under the sun. Now crossbody bags are the perfect size to hold just what you need for a walk or a trip to the store. […]

I’m always in awe of women who started their own companies when most women weren’t even working outside of the home. Loretta Caponi earned how to embroider at the age of nine and opened her boutique in Florence in 1967. Her signature nightgowns made of cotton, linen, and silk and later table linens and bedding […]

It’s freezing in New York right now but warm weather so I look forward to spending some time at home reading and watching movies. These are some things to do, watch, buy, and enjoy this weekend no matter what the weather is where you live. I had the pleasure of attending the press preview for […]

I wasn’t able to walk as much as I would have liked this winter due to all the snow. Warmer weather is on the way next week and I can’t wait to take a walk every day and I’ve got lots of new sneakers to wear on them. I have bought so many pairs, someone […]

My Instagram friend Julien Devergnies @_percaline_ recently posted that his apartment in Brussels, Belgium that he shares with his partner Nicolas Woit was published in The World of Interiors in July 2018. I’m not sure what I was doing then but I completely missed it. I love following Julien because we have a similar aesthetic […]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I think the mark of a great designer is someone who can make me like a design style that is not my personal favorite. Interior designer Martin Brûlé has created the chicest Art Deco abode in a building that did not have many redeeming interior architectural […]

I can’t believe we are nearing the year mark of the start of this pandemic. As we are still spending time at home, I’ve been trying to refresh my apartment with a few new things for spring. I just ordered a new robe and towels and if you need anything, I highly recommend the H&M […]

I had a great response to my first Deeda Blair post about her elegance and New York apartment and I’m following it up with a look at her Georgetown home. She and her late husband William Blair purchased the 1930s red brick Georgian home in the late 1960s when Mr. Blair “was named the first […]

Are you sick of snow yet? I know I am. I don’t remember the last time it snowed so much in New York. I guess it is one good way of getting most people to stay home in a global pandemic though. One thing that’s helping me get through are flowering branches. Those are quince […]

I’ve been thinking a lot about elegance lately. Propriety is another thing that’s been on my mind due to thirst trap photos and Generation Z telling us where we can part our hair. As Justin Sylvester said today, “Why should we take advice from kids who are still on their parent’s family plan?” Why are […]
