Everyone I spoke with this week said they thought Memorial Day was next weekend. If the early holiday has left you unprepared for summer, Heidi Wynne has you covered. She is generously offering HC readers free shipping and 15% off site wide with code CHIC15 until June 10, 2015. Heidi has a wide array of straw and […]
It feels like the weather has bypassed spring and moved straight to summer. I would be more excited about the warmer temperatures if I felt like my closet was also ready. If you’re in the same boat as me or just want to add a few new chic pieces to your warm weather wardrobe, I […]
Everyone always asks me what I pack and for this trip to Costa Rica, it was all sleeveless dresses and beach cover ups. The weather has been in the 90’s which isn’t that bad once you get used to it or can jump in the pool. Sunscreen is also extremely important since we’re so close […]
I had planned a longer post for today but the beach was calling. I’ll be back on Saturday with a fun outfit post on what I packed for Costa Rica. Bon week-end ! HC
Our blizzard turned out to be a bust but it’s still snowy and cold. It’s definitely a good time to think about another warm weather getaway like Harbour Island in the Bahamas. Vogue features the Hibiscus Hill home and rental properties of India Hicks and David Flint Wood in the new February 2015 issue and […]
Travel is as much abut the places you go as the people you travel with and that was never more true than on my press trip to Caneel Bay on St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The weather was beautiful and warm which was a great reprieve from winter in New York and the other […]
This is the view I woke up to this morning at Caneel Bay. It’s perfection as is the weather. While it feels like -8 with the wind chill in New York, we will have 80+ degree temperatures today. Ahhh. I’m taking a little break to enjoy myself but will definitely have longer posts up soon. […]
I’m off to St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands today for a few days of fun in the sun at Caneel Bay. I’m leaving just in time to miss another arctic blast headed for New York and can’t wait to sit on the beach. India Hicks is based in the Bahamas, not where I’m […]
I’m back from Art Basel but battling a nasty cold. Makes me wish I had stayed in sunny and warm Miami. While I rest up and recover, I’m leaving you with a few pics of my trip. But I will have another lovely gift guide for you on Monday morning.
Many people will be heading to the Hamptons this weekend to spend the last unofficial weekend of summer at the beach. The house in Something’s Gotta Give inspired the decor of many beach homes so I thought you would be interested to know that according to Curbed, the Shingle Style house that was used for the exterior shots has […]
First, I want to thank everyone who send kind emails and left comments regarding my beauty post. I’m still trying to get through all the emails so if it takes me a few days to reply, please forgive me. I think most of you completely understood why I wrote that post but a few of […]
The wifi situation has been more spotty than anticipated in the Dominican Republic so I apologize for a lack of posts. But I have to admit that it’s been nice to be on a real holiday and doing no work other than making everyone back in cold New York jealous via Instagram. Except for a […]
It’s been exciting to see the progress of Serena & Lily from when I was first introduced to them in 2010. It was even more inspiring to hear founders Lily Kanter and Serena Dugan talk about the really early days when they just made crib bedding while standing in their first retail store in the […]
Summer is starting with a bang in New York. We are scheduled for three days of 90+ degree temperatures. Makes we wish I was anyplace but the city. Hope you have a great one where ever you are today! “In summer, the song sings itself.” – William Carlos Williams Elle Decor Paul Newman via East […]
I wish I was at the beach eating ice cream today. Instead I’m working on final edits for the book which goes to print on Monday. (Hooray!) But since the sun is finally out, I might sneak over to the park this afternoon. I’ll be back tomorrow with some fun posts for Father’s Day. Until […]
I’ve seen the photo of The Divers above dozens of times yet didn’t realize the photographer was George Hoyningen-Huene until recently. He was born in Russia in 1900 and during the Russian Revolution fled to London and later Paris. He worked as a photographer and eventually became chief of photography at French Vogue. In 1931, he […]
