This awards season was probably the first time many Americans have heard of Isabelle Huppert. The 63 year old French actress made her debut in 1971 and has been nominated for awards since 1975.

I told myself at the beginning of the year that I wasn’t allowed to buy any new beauty products and broke my own rule almost as soon as I made it. I swear that someday I’m going to become a facialist or own a beauty boutique but until then, I continue to experiment on myself. […]

You may remember my recent feature on Kate Rheinstein Brodsky‘s store KRB last month. Now One Kings Lane has a lovely feature on her family apartment on the Upper East Side. I’ve also included a few photos from her cover feature from Elle Decor in 2015. The best thing about the OKL story is that you […]

I’ve been shopping a little for spring already but I don’t really need too much this season. One thing I still need to find is a crossbody bag. I love my Celine tote bags for running errands and traveling since they hold so much but I would like a smaller crossbody bag for weekends. I […]

I’ve posted Rose Uniacke‘s gorgeous London home before but it’s always worth repeating. Vogue has featured new photos of the house in the March 2017 issue that Rose describes as, “monastery meets Venetian palazzo.” I don’t know if I ever really noticed the unfinished floors before which I really love against the grandeur of the […]

If you glanced quickly at this apartment featured on Architectural Digest, you might think it’s located on the Upper East Side of New York.

I hadn’t intended to post about fashion two days in a row but after seeing the gorgeous Ralph Lauren fashion show yesterday, I felt compelled. The “see now, buy now” collection was shown in the Ralph Lauren Women’s Mansion that was filled with walls of orchids, the sound of birds, and even moving butterflies. Just […]

I heard that Samantha Cameron was working on a fashion line so I was excited to see that the final product is now available online here and here. Cefinn, named for her children, is an affordable collection of pieces that were conceived as stylish workwear but definitely look like they can be worn anywhere. As she […]

I think we all know that fashion designers also have great interior design style and Pierre Hardy is no different. His duplex apartment in the Marais area of Paris just featured in the WSJ is mostly black and white but is definitely not boring. “Black is not a choice because I find it more beautiful than […]
