October is one of the prettiest times in New York. Well, not right now because it’s wet and cold. But hopefully soon the leaves will change and pumpkins will be put out on stoops and all will be right with the world.

I’ll admit that it felt like this summer flew by but I’m still very ready for la rentrée, which is what the French call the reentry after their August holidays. I can’t wait for sweater weather, leaf peeping, and fall events like the Lee Radziwill auction at Christie’s in October. If you’re not excited for […]

Fall transitional weather lasted about a day in New York before the temperatures dropped and the heat came on last week. We are all now wearing coats now and complaining about the cold. If you’re looking for coat inspiration, I highly recommend watching the film Ocean’s 8 if you haven’t already. It was filmed in […]

We’ve had a heat wave in New York this week so I personally can’t wait for autumn. Fall is is the city’s best season. Fashion week starts right after the Labor Day holiday which is always exciting. There are also many great art exhibitions, design events, and chic auctions. I can’t wait to wear cashmere […]

It’s finally feeling like fall in New York. The chillier temperatures mean it’s time to think about fall footwear and there’s no better place to start than Nordstrom. The free shipping and returns make it easy to try as many pairs as possible. I’ve put together my favorite boots, sneakers, and flats to to get […]
