February feels like it’s flying by but there’s still a lot of new things to do, see, watch, and try this month. The Madison Avenue Diptyque store took over the neighboring space and renovated to create one of the most beautiful boutiques in the city now and the biggest Diptyque store in the US. The […]

Last year, my Instagram friend Julien Devergnies asked me if I knew of the publication Frederic and what I thought since they reached out to see if they could photograph his house in Brussels. I was happy to advise him that it’s a wonderful magazine published by the fabric company Schumacher. I receive a physical […]

It’s a little warmer in NYC right now but this is known as “Fake First Spring” but the wintery weather will be back this week so I’m starting to think about fashions that can work with fluctuating temperatures. Luckily, NET-A-PORTER has many new season separates that are perfect for this transitional season. As a jumping […]

Last year, someone I follow on Instagram posted a few photos just inside 973 Fifth Avenue. The decor looked very intriguing but I couldn’t find much about the house online then. When I posted an exterior photo of the front door in my Instagram Stories last week, a kind follower alerted me to the fact […]

January was the dreary and depressing month in New York. But the sun is today and all is right with the world again. It is so hard to get inspired when you want to burn all your winter clothes but the ME+EM catalog arrived last week and I fell in love with this skirt and […]

One way to escape the January doldrums is to start shopping for Valentine’s Day. I’ve put together almost 60 gifts for women, men, teens, little kids, furry friends, and of course, yourself. One for them, two for me is my motto. Brighten up your wardrobe for February with this fuchsia double-breasted belted wool-blend felt coat. […]

Last night, I had the pleasure of attending a dinner to celebrate the launch of the new Remy Renzullo x Carolina Irving & Daughters, Olympia and Ariadne Irving, collection launch on Moda Operandi. I haven’t seen Remy in person in years since he’s been spending more of his time in London working on Castle Howard. […]

I thought I would be a little more gung-ho to start this year but I forgot just how uninspiring January can be. It’s not an exciting new seasonal start like fall which has beautiful weather and all new fashions. It’s freezing cold and snowy in New York which makes everyone want to hunker down at […]

I’ve been hiding out in my pajamas this long holiday weekend after getting a peel from Oni Skincare on Friday. Now, we are expecting a big snowstorm and arctic temperatures so that’s another great reason to hunker down at home in your pajamas. I also love packing a chic pair of pajamas when I travel […]

The New Moon in Capricorn today is a great day to restart your new year and a perfect time for a little wardrobe refresh. Since I didn’t post my usual “what I bought” post for December and Paris, I thought I would combine some of the favorite things I bought at the end of last […]

I took some time off last week for a quick trip to Boston but now that I’m back, I need to get started on all my apartment organizing and decluttering projects. The big issue most people tackle in the new year is the dreaded closet clean out. I usually post a closet inspiration post each […]

One thing I wish I had asked for as a Christmas present is a stay at the Abbaye des Vaux de Cernay. The country estate hotel outside Paris has been completely renovated and updated by the French hospitality group, Paris Society. The location was originally a 12th-century Cistercian abbey and later a weekend estate of […]

I still can’t believe that 2024 is here. It feels like just yesterday when we were staying home in 2020. Time flies when you may or may not be having fun. But I love fresh starts and new beginnings. I love making lists and cracking open a fresh Smythson agenda just waiting to be filled […]

Photo from @martinbrudnizki I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. There are some great sales happening now in case Santa didn’t bring you what you wanted or you have some holiday money burning a hole in your pocket. ANN TAYLOR – Extra 40% off all sale styles + 40% off full price purchases (exclusions apply) […]

After taking off a busy pre-holiday week, I’m back to wish you a very Merry Christmas. I joked with a friend recently that I thrive when everyone else is away since it gives me some quiet time to do things without distraction so expect some blog posts between now and the year. That is my […]

If you’re behind on your holiday shopping, Saks has you covered with some great last minute gifts for yourself and others. I’ve picked out some of my favorites to help get you started. Actor Glen Powell wore a suede jacket to an interview this week. If your significant other wishes he was a leading man, […]
