I’ve been trying not too buy too much for spring or because I really don’t need many pieces. But I am headed to Palm Beach soon and picked up a few things that work for both so I thought I would share them. In case you haven’t taken a look lately, Banana Republic is looking […]
It’s a bank holiday weekend in the UK and it feels everyone else in Europe is en vacances until September begins. I’ve been traveling so much this summer that I’m happy to be at home getting ready for fall. But here’s one last look at summer for those of you who aren’t ready for it […]
If you’re looking for the perfect hostess gift or an update for your summer table, Williams-Sonoma is currently offering 30% off the Aerin Collection. I love the patterned plates and wicker accessories. There is definitely something for everyone. And this is not a sponsored post. Just a public service announcement.
It looks like the weather is finally going to warm up this week. I think we can all use a little spring right now but after seeing the new Weekend Max Mara Nantucket collection, I want to jump directly to summer. The collection modeled by Hailey Baldwin Bieber is a collaboration with interior designer Anthony Baratta […]
You have to bear with me because I’m still only a third of the way through Bunny Mellon: The Life of an American Style Legend book so she’s constantly on my mind lately. This along with the feature on her Antigua home purchased by Tory Burch that I posted yesterday has me thinking about her decorating […]
Some people are experiencing the summertime blues because they don’t want summer to end. I have the summertime blues because it’s too hot and humid. I can’t wait for cooler fall weather but I’m going to try to embrace these last few weeks with some more of your favorite color compilation posts. Nine Fair Backgammon […]
I buy many books the minute they are published but I don’t always get around to reading them right away. I also feel like our tech obsessed world has given me social media induced ADD. It’s hard not to scroll through Instagram at night instead of reading but I’m trying to remedy this issue. I’ve […]
When I lived in Boston, we always went to Cape Cod in the summer and occasionally the north shore. I regret that I never made it to Nantucket and should really plan a trip at some point. Until that happens, I’m going to enjoy this beautiful home on the island that Markham Roberts designed and […]
Aerin Lauder’s latest collection for Williams Sonoma Home has just launched and I think it might actually be better than her first. I love the addition of green to the blue and white mix and the new scalloped bedding. If you’re still trying to put your Easter table together or plan your spring and summer […]

As excited as I am for autumn, I am feeling a little sad that summer is coming to an end. There were a few places I wanted to travel and didn’t make it to including Maine. The state motto says, “the way life should be” and this house in Maine decorated by Susanne Kasler looks […]
Yesterday’s post got me thinking about all the great things you can purchase online for a house in the Hamptons or at the beach. The image above is another from the upcoming book Out East: Houses and Gardens of the Hamptons and is the inspiration for all these wonderful pieces. Bungalow Sofa Lift Top Coffee Table […]
The AERIN Collection for Williams Sonoma could not have debuted at a better time. The collection of furniture, accessories, tabletop, and decor are perfect for refreshing your home for spring and summer entertaining. “The collection incorporates a ton of blue and white, which is a staple in the AERIN brand and is part of my […]
There is nothing worse than being sick in the summer as I found out this weekend. While I continue to recover from being an incubus of viral plague, I leave you with a new interview with artist and designer William McLure of Birmingham, Alabama on One Kings Lane. It’s been so fun to see his […]
According to Instagram, Greece is one of the most popular places for travel this summer. After seeing this family compound that Isabel López-Quesada designed with architect Nikos Moustroufis designed on the island of Spetses, it’s easy to see why. The base of blue floor and white walls perfectly complements the color of the water and buildings of […]
As you know, I love visiting the flea markets in New York and Paris. I love searching for vintage treasures and antiques but I don’t have the time to go that often. (That’s my gallery wall of art above.) Now flea market style comes to me, and you, in the form of online estate sales […]
My final show each fashion week is Ralph Lauren. I like to think of it as saving the best for last and it always ends the week on a high note. While the red, white, and blue color palette might seem all American, the lyrics that played while Mr. Lauren took his bow was “I love […]
