It was over 70 degrees yesterday but we might get snow flurries next week so dressing in March and even April can be a challenge. This year, I’m inspired by Sofia Coppola who has the perfect wardrobe for unpredictable weather. Her closet staples include navy sweaters, black pants, blue shirts, navy coats, striped tops, ballet […]
Since not many people are going into the office right now, there is no reason to carry a giant tote bag filled with a laptop, gym clothes, and everything else under the sun. Now crossbody bags are the perfect size to hold just what you need for a walk or a trip to the store. […]

The weather has been cool enough to wear jeans for the last few days and it’s been heavenly. I had a wonderful summer but I hate sweating and look forward to autumn every year. Fall is New York’s best season and the absolute best time of the year for fashion. My favorite go to outfit […]
One of my friends asked about a wicker bag I posted earlier this summer. Unfortunately, that specific bag sold out but the brand, Sparrows Weave, has the same style available in burgundy, navy, and black embossed croc leather that are just as chic and other styles that could be worn well into autumn. I also […]
As soon as I saw the new Frances Valentine Pre-Fall 2019 Lookbook, I immediately recognized that it was photographed at the Hannibal French House in Sag Harbor. I would have recognized it regardless since it has a very distinct Italianate exterior but I also just walked by it every single day last week. When I […]

On Thursday morning, I headed downtown to preview the new Hermès store in the Meatpacking District. The area used to actually be where they packed meat in New York. You would almost break an ankle on the cobblestones when you went to Pastis or Florent. Now those iconic places are gone and the cobblestones have […]
We’re expecting 5-8 inches of snow Sunday night into Monday morning but that is not stopping me from buying spring clothes. Luckily, we can shop in the comfort of our own homes instead of going outside in bad weather and Sézane is one of my favorite places to shop online. I’m always amazed that my […]
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel star Rachel Broshahan is the new face of Frances Valentine, the line created by her late aunt Kate Spade. The synergy couldn’t be more perfect. Rachel not only looks like her aunt but the fashions and accessories remind me of pieces that Mrs. Maisel would wear around New York and the […]

If you need a little more motivation, I’ve put together the perfect resort wardrobe to pack for your trip whether you’re headed to Hawaii, Mexico, or the Caribbean.

Did you watch The Last Days of John F. Kennedy, Jr. last week? The best part was seeing videos of him with Carolyn Bessette Kennedy. We normally see photos of her running away from the paparazzi so it was nice to see her smiling and actually hear her voice. It’s also amazing that her fashion […]
