My final favorite things gift guide for 2018 was supposed to go up last Tuesday but better late than never. You have a few more days to shop in order to have gifts delivered in time for Christmas so here are a few last minute gift ideas. I think it’s always nice to buy someone […]

The holidays are upon us and that means lots of events and parties. There is no better place to shop for dresses, outfits, and accessories than Ann Taylor. They really have everything you could possibly need whether that means getting very dressed up or just entertaining at home. The fact that Ann Taylor also carries […]

My favorite thing in New York every Christmas is to walk over an see the Bergdorf Goodman holiday windows. The signify the start of the season for me and never fail to disappoint. This year, they are full of sweet treats and colorful candies dreamed up by window designer David Hoey and his staff. I’ve […]

I’ve shopped eBay for as long as I can remember. I have found so many wonderful vintage pieces of art, china, and silver on the site but they also sell a myriad of new items for every room in your home. Did you know 81% of the items on eBay are new and available with […]

I spent today pulling boxes of Christmas decorations from the top of my hall closet and decorating my apartment. I’m exhausted and can’t imagine having to decorate an entire house. I’m sure people space the decorating out for a week or have help so I’m sure it’s manageable. One designer who makes me wish I […]

I miss Jayson Home now that their pop up shops are gone but luckily for all of us, you can shop their wares online. This year, Jayson Home has launched a holiday Capsule Collection of globally sourced gifts that are all personal favorites of the Chicago home emporium’s well-traveled buyers, Caroline Scheeler and Devin Kirk. The […]

I don’t know anyone who decorates chicer for Christmas than Suzanne Rheinstein. The Los Angeles based interior designer incorporates many Southern traditions in her decorations based on her childhood upbringing in New Orleans. They include citrus fruits, gilded magnolia leaves, and pomanders among other things. I posted some of these photos from One Kings Lane a […]

Today I heard there are only 39 days until Christmas. I’m definitely not ready and if you aren’t either, we have our first favorite things gift guide of the season to help get you started on your shopping. I love this set of 4 Aerin Holiday Salad Plates. They would make a great gift with […]

Last December, my friend Dina and I visited Charleston, South Carolina. It was fun to see how the South decorates for Christmas. I love how they turn dried fruits into ornaments and garlands. No where was this more beautifully done that at the Joseph Manigault House from 1803. I really wanted to dry orange slices […]

It snowed a few times in New York last week and now it’s really feeling like Christmas. I love how red pops against the snow so it was the perfect excuse for a color compilation post. Merry Christmas! XOXO, HC Red Textured Leather Tote Wool Blend Midi Dress @leontinelinens @rubyandb Red Leather Shoulder Bag @zoedegivenchy […]

I was going to post one last gift guide today but honestly, I’m all gift guided out. I thought it might be fun to post what I’ve bought myself for Christmas instead. I just read that approximately 60% of people admit to self gifting so I’m glad I’m not alone. I hope my gifts to […]

I know many of you will be visiting New York this holiday season so I wanted to share a few great pop up shops and one permanent store open now. When you run out of time for online shopping, you still have a lot of wonderful options in the city. It was a fun treat […]

I can’t believe there are only 20 days left until Christmas. If you’re behind on your shopping, I’m back with another gift guide to help you check everyone off your list. I think the best gift you can give someone is something that you know they will love or something they might not buy themselves […]

I love a place that allows for one-stop shopping for the holidays and beloved-British brand, The White Company, is the perfect place to get gifts for everyone on your list this year. They offer elegant and affordable gifts for women, men, children, and home, as well as gift wrap, ribbon, tags, decorations, and more. The […]

The holidays in New York are always magical and this year is no exception. I took a tour of some of the decorations this past weekend and the Bergdorf Goodman holiday windows were the standout. The “To New York With Love” themed windows celebrate New York cultural institutions such as American Museum of Natural History, […]

There is nothing I find more overwhelming that creating gender and age specific holiday gift guides. Instead of doing it the way everyone else is doing it this year, I’ve decided to create a few favorite things gift guides inspired by Oprah. This one mixes gifts for everyone on your list so you can get […]

I wanted to begin my gift guides this year with some of my favorite things. (Yes, like Oprah but not as extensive.) These gift ideas could be for host/hostess gifts, stocking stuffers, or items for anyone on your list, even yourself. There is no store as overwhelming in a good way like Fortnum & Mason […]
