Nondescript hotel decor that doesn’t reflect the city in which you are staying is anathema to me. Luckily, that definitely does not describe the J.K. Hotel Paris. I’ve been aware of the hotel since before it opened but I’m so glad I stopped by to see my friend Callie Stanton who was staying at the […]

I didn’t create a Father’s Day Gift Guide last year so I’m making up for it this year with 54 gifts to get the man in your life. The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny and Murder is the hot book of the summer and looks like the perfect subject matter for dad. I remember […]

I love the magazine How to Spend It, although, they just had an unfortunate rebrand to just HTSI. I’m sure this acronym means nothing people who are not familiar with the magazine included in the weekend edition of the Financial Times. They have a regular interview feature that was also called How to Spend It […]

I missed posting my winter skincare earlier this year so I’m skipping straight to summer. I’m going to walk you through everything I’m using from products to devices to the treatments I can’t live without to get you ready to put your best face and body forward this summer. I can’t quit this Kiehl’s Clearly […]

There is nothing more exciting than finding a beautiful chateau in France that is also available to rent. Chateau d’Hebertot is an enchanting place in the heart of Normandy. A property rich in history, the first part of which was built by the family of the Knights of Nollent in the 17th century. This exceptional […]

Since Memorial Day is the unofficial start of summer, I decided to put together some summer essentials to get you ready for the season. They can also give you a few ideas for Father’s Day and the Fourth of July too. If you need a little cover from the sun, this linen-cotton blend beach shirt […]

While I was in Paris in April, my friend Andrew and I were invited by Ralph Lauren Home to dine at Ralph’s at the Ralph Lauren store in Saint Germain. We were lucky to enjoy lunch at the restaurant before they closed for a month for refreshing. They have just reopened and enjoying a meal […]

I haven’t put together a color post since last year so I thought I’d create an ode to summer in honor of the long Memorial Day holiday weekend. @amy_stone Beach Set of Two Chairs and Umbrella – 20% off with code SPLASH @victoriahaganinteriors Nine Fair Backgammon Set Floral print Swiss-dot textured cotton-blend midi dress @amy_stone […]

You might not be familiar with the UK based brand ME+EM but after this post, you will want to make them part of your everyday wardrobe. Clare Hornby founded ME+EM on the principle that “modern women should not have to choose between quality and cost” and she has certainly succeeded. What I love most about […]

While Memorial Day is a time we should be remembering and honoring people who have died while serving in the United States Armed Forces, it also signifies the unofficial start of summer in the US. But don’t forget to take some time to shop the Memorial Day Weekend Sales. I’ve rounded up all the best including […]

I know I’ve posted a lot of fashion this week which some people will love and others will hate. I started this shirtdress post last week and some styles have just gone on sale so I wanted to get it up today before they sell out. I prefer a long sleeve shirtdress because it gives […]

If yesterday’s airport travel outfit doesn’t work for you, I have a few other options for you today. I’m currently trying to get my ducks in a row for my next trip the Hamptons and my July trip to London so these are some of the things I’ve been eyeing, buying, and trying for May […]

The 76th Annual Cannes Film Festival is taking place in France right now and the airport arrival outfits in Nice are better than the fancy red carpet looks. Some of my favorites this week include Brie Larson in a chic Celine jacket, Uma Thurman in a tan suit, and Natalie Portman and French actress Laura […]

“In all of our projects”, says interior designer Timothy Corrigan, “we strive to create spaces that are comfortably elegant: where people feel that they are someplace special, while simultaneously feeling completely at ease. To that end, outdoor fabrics were used on the upholstered seating, along with a stain-resistant hide rug, to live up to the […]

I can’t believe it’s mid-May already although it feels like the height of summer with the beautiful weather we’ve been having in NYC this week. Not sure when you’ll have time to stay in and watch a movie or television show but there is a lot debuting this month in addition to many wonderful museum […]

My friend Matt Albiani attended an estate sale in East Hampton this weekend just a stone’s throw away from Grey Gardens which he posted on his Mate Gallery Instagram account. Lucky for me and you, he shared the real estate listing for 15 West End Road. It appears to be under contract and I pray […]

Warm weather is finally here, and that means garden parties, outdoor dining, and special events. As you start planning your spring wardrobe, my friend Heidi Wynne has you covered with her beautiful new collection of block print floral dresses and lighter weight cashmere. She is generously extending a 15% reduction, site-wide with no exclusions, until […]
