I always think of HATCH for their maternity wear but after visiting their pop up shop on Howard Street, I realize it’s not just for moms. At the press breakfast, both my friend Alice Ryan and Serena Dugan of Serena & Lily were wearing a navy silk jumpsuit that looked like it was from a […]
I usually like to wait until after Thanksgiving to start posting about Christmas but since it’s starting to look pretty festive around town, I figured what the heck. Last week, Bunny Williams invited me to Treillage for lunch where the entire place was already decked out for the holidays. I found out that I had […]
In case you need a little last minute autumn and entertaining inspiration, this is probably the last of it until we move onto Christmas. I will be in London for Thanksgiving which seems rather ironic. I’m excited to get away but I will miss the pumpkin pie. Hope one of you will save me a […]
Since my friends and I will all be out of town for Thanksgiving, we plan to get together for dinner before we leave. Even though there are a million restaurants in New York, it’s always nice to plan a dinner party at home where you can be as boisterous as you want without bothering the […]
While I was styling an early Thanksgiving table this week for a photo shoot, I was lamenting the fact that I don’t have a large collection of blue and white china like my friend Alice Ryan does above. I was also kicking myself for not buying up the boxes of china I’ve seen at the […]
Over the Thanksgiving holiday, I braved the crowded to check out the new Picasso Black and White exhibition at the Guggenheim museum. While it’s not as dynamic or inspiring as some of the colorful Picasso exhibitions at the Gagosian galleries recently, Picasso’s work is amazing in any color. The white spiral gallery at the Guggenheim […]
Black Friday is the phrase used to describe the shopping day after Thanksgiving when retailers go from “in the red” to “in the black” which refers to making a profit. For me, it’s the day that makes me glad I don’t live near a mall. This post is my chic homage to Black Friday with […]

As my father reminded me the other day, I have a lot to be thankful this year. I’m grateful to everyone who bought my book Creativity at Work, stopped by all of my events, and sent me lovely messages. We’re almost ready for a second printing so if you want a first edition, I’d grab one […]
This week, I’m headed to San Francisco for a little sightseeing and another book signing. I can’t wait to catch up with my friend Grant K. Gibson and see recently transplanted New York designer Allison Caccoma in her new city. I look forward to seeing Caitlin Flemming of Sacramento Street and meeting all my blog […]
Yesterday, a friend mentioned noticing via Google how many posts I’ve written on Tory Burch. I only write about people worth writing about especially when they create aesthetically pleasing products and/or interiors. Both is true of Tory Burch and I love that her homes and stores inspire many with their great use of color and […]
UPDATE: The photos from this post are now gone because I was contacted by somone who claimed to own the copyright. After receiving several rude emails from them, I decided to take them down. I apologize for the inconvenience. I think we all know by now that I like stuff. I like homes filled with […]
I think everyone can agree that cooler temperatures mean a return to comfort food. At no time is this more prevalent that at Thanksgiving which is coming up soon. I didn’t mind my tiny kitchen when it was the height of summer but now I wish I had more space and an area for a […]
The best part of Thanksgiving is that it has traditionally been a non-commercial holiday. Well, until stores decided to open this year but I digress. Thanksgiving is a day when you don’t have to do anything but spend time eating and watching the parade and football with those we care about. It is always nice […]
I’m officially over summer and all I can think of is autumn with it’s crisp cool weather and beautiful clothes. I also think this amazing sepia toned tableware “Les Maisons Enchantées” from Hermès would be perfect for fall feasts and even more spectacular at Thanksgiving! You might just want to keep it away from the […]
I had planned to blog over the Thanksgiving holiday but then decided to take some much needed time off. But I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge how thankful I am for all the wonderful new people that I have met this year and for everyone who reads my blog and takes the time […]
The Thanksgiving holiday brings not only turkey and football but blockbuster movies. The one I am most excited to see is Australia staring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman and directed by Baz Luhrmann. It looks a bit like Out of Africa but who cares. If you ask me, there aren’t enough movies about aristocratic European […]
