I’m not sure why Madewell waited until after Bastille Day to launch their second collaboration with Sézane but better late than never. The French brand was founded by Morgane Sézalory and inspired by vintage designs. She says of the Madewell et Sézanne pairing, “We both have brands for real women in real life, but with some soul. […]
I have a lot of events coming up in the next few months so I’m starting to plan ahead. The first place I’m starting is St. John at Nordstrom. They always have ladylike styles that aren’t boring and can be styled in a multitude of ways. I prefer to wear dresses for events since they are easy […]
The worst part of the fashion calendar is that when you actually want to buy summer clothes, you’ll find nothing but in the stores but wool coats. If you’re still in need of key pieces to get you through warm weather any time of year, head to Chance where you’ll find everything you need. The […]
A small piece from the WSJ.Magazine online has led to a new design crush in Gabriela Perezutti Hearst. The Uruguay-born designer started with her first line Candela but now has a new line Gabriela Hearst that she describes as a collection “for a woman, not a girl. Someone who knows what she wants.” Although she’s lived […]
While I’m in the Hamptons, it feels like everyone else I follow on Instagram is in Italy right now. Some are on holiday but most are in Florence for Pitti Uomo, the most important menswear tradeshow on the calendar each year. It’s a chance for the men to have their day in the sun and strut […]
Summer hasn’t even officially started yet and the city is already hot and sticky. Good thing that Emerson Fry just debuted their Core Dress today. The low back tank dress comes in five colors and can be styled in a multitude of ways. You can keep it light and let it hang loose or belt […]
Today I had the pleasure of attending the Carolina Herrera resort 2016 preview. It would have been an outside garden party if the weather had cooperated but it was no less fun or chic indoors. According to the notes, the resort collection began with a feather illustration. “The idea of lightness, grace, and simplicity too […]
It’s been years since I’ve seen Amanda Brooks in person so it was lovely to catch up with her at a private book signing for Always Pack a Party Dress: And Other Lessons Learned from a (Half) Life in Fashion last week. The book is perfect for our ADD-lack-of-attention-span new world. It’s filled with memoir […]
Right now, everything is on sale everywhere. Well, maybe not everything but there are a lot of amazing fashions on sale at Net-a-Porter, Barneys, and Bergdorf Goodman online. I’m sharing a few of my favorites and the best part is that you have the entire summer left to wear them. One of the brands that […]
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 […]
Many fashion designers make the foray into home design but now shelter darlings Serena & Lily has just debuted their first fashion collection. It’s filled with dresses, separates, and accessories perfect for spring and summer. Some of the prints were inspired by those already offered for the home. “My vision for this collection started with […]

The film is by Freédéric Tcheng who was also behind Diana Vreeland: The Eye Has to Travel and Valentino: The Last Emperor both of which garnered much praise. Dior and I follows designer Raf Simons and his team for […]
The other thing I need to buy for spring are new jeans. I had the pleasure of meeting Jane Herman Bishop, one of the founders of Jean Stories, at a dinner in Paris. She gave me a few suggestions for new styles that I look forward to trying now that I no longer have to […]
It’s not sandals season just yet especially since we had snow flurried yesterday mixed in with the rain. But I always think it’s a good idea to get a jump start on the season so you can buy what you want in your size before they sell out. I am sad that my favorite Christian […]
Even though we’re supposed to be getting more snow tomorrow in New York, I’m still planning my wardrobe for Spring. I have to make sure I’m covered for upcoming events like Easter, my birthday, and a few trips. While you may think that Burberry London only make trench coats, they also offer beautiful dresses and separates […]
