What is more summery than a great straw bag that can take you from the city to the beach. My lovely friend Heidi Wynne is offering Habitually Chic readers 20% off her entire website with code CHIC20 and free Fed Ex ground shipping on all domestic orders. The 20% discount can be applied to sale […]

I’ve had quite a few people comment on how great my skin looks lately. I thought it was a good time then to share some of the new beauty and skincare products I’ve been buying and trying lately. I’m still using a lot of the products I’ve written about in my previous makeup and skincare posts […]

The Web Exclusive Home Tours on Architectural Digest are always my favorite features. They usually highlight more relatable interiors compared to some of the aspirational homes in the magazine. Long time readers might remember seeing the Chicago home of Lauren Buxbaum Gordon a few years ago. Lauren is a design director for Nate Berkus and moved to […]

My friend in Utah is in the midst of building a cabin near a lake. He’s been asking my advice on various design ideas so as soon as I saw this rustic retreat near Lake Arrowhead, California in the new summer issue of C Magazine, I sent him the photos. Owner Leanne Citrone and her family […]

So many apartments in Paris have white walls but not this one. It is painted in seven shades of grey graduating from light to dark as you move back to the private spaces. I came across the home of David Chaplain and Alexandre Roussard on The Socialite Family, an interesting website that features “smart and […]

As someone who’s spent the last 20 years living near the Atlantic Ocean, I sometimes forget that there are other places people go each summer. How amazing is it that Nancy Hoguet and her brother spent their summers at a family hunting lodge in the Austria, wearing drindls and lederhosen no less?! I loved reading her […]

I love this outfit that Aerin Lauder worn in Paris this week. I had a feeling the blouse was Chloé and actually came across it while I was out shopping today. I will have to ask her where her jeans are from since they are the perfect shade of blue. While she accessorized her outfit with a […]

Today is the first day of summer and if you’re still looking for a place to getaway out east, you might want to check out Matt Lauer’s Sag Harbor home that just received another price cut at Corcoran. The six bedroom, six bathroom 8,000-square-foot home was designed by architect Daniel Romualdez, while the Muriel Brandolini […]

Every now and then, I like to highlight one of my favorite Instagram accounts you might also enjoy. I don’t know Colin Gray @colin_awg or anything about him except what his bio says, “Purveyor of old buildings, beard enthusiast, enjoying a sabbatical, accomplished cook, currently renovating an old farmhouse in Somerset.” I supposed I could […]

My friend Alice first introduced me to The White Company years ago but for some reason I never visited their stores in London. Now I don’t have to travel across the pond to experience their stylish and timeless products. Their new store on lower Fifth Avenue in the Flatiron district carries a myriad of candles […]

I love photographing classic cars for Instagram but I haven’t seen very many lately. Instead, I’ve been living vicariously through all the car Instagram accounts I follow. In honor of Father’s Day, I’ve put together some of my favorites. Although, I do know that a lot of women also love hot wheels. Bon weekend! Image […]

Last week, I had the pleasure of getting a tour of the new One Kings Lane pop up shop in Southampton from president Debbie Propst. The store is located at 11 Jobs Lane in what was the old Southampton library that has been empty for years. The large building gives OKL the opportunity to create rooms to […]

Yesterday’s post got me thinking about all the great things you can purchase online for a house in the Hamptons or at the beach. The image above is another from the upcoming book Out East: Houses and Gardens of the Hamptons and is the inspiration for all these wonderful pieces. Bungalow Sofa Lift Top Coffee Table  […]

I don’t normally like a lot of pattern in homes but I am totally charmed by this chic cottage called Woody House in the Hamptons. On first look, it seems to be more collected than decorated and story in the new July issue of Architectural Digest confirms that the owners are avid travelers. Peter Marino who helped them […]

New York has a bodega, or independently run convenience store, every few blocks. They are the backbone of the city but none is as awe inspiring as the felt bodega art installation titled 8 Till Late by artist Lucy Sparrow at the The Standard High Line. Over 9,000 different grocery items from toilet paper to […]

Speaking of One Kings Lane, the design studio just helped Jennifer Meyer‘s design team of Pierce & Ward decorate her new light filled Los Angeles home. I love all pared down spaces as well as the cozy blue office. It’s another home that makes me want to declutter and also buy a pink sofa. To shop […]

I took hundreds of photos today at the new One Kings Lane store in Southampton. Until I get a chance to edit them, I thought I’d show you the beautiful lunch that One Kings Lane hosted for us after the store visit at the Wolffer Estate Winery in Sagaponack. It was simple and chic and would […]
