Chic on the Street

09 . 08 . 14

As everyone knows, some of the best looks each fashion week aren’t on the runways.  The street style looks are also looking much better this season.  Maybe it’s because it’s been so hot.  I think the weather has also been the reason we’re seeing so much white after Labor Day too. Gotta get it in […]

Fashion at Home

09 . 07 . 14

Fashion designer Adam Lippes presented his Spring 2015 collection in his duplex on Washington Square Park on Saturday. It was the perfect backdrop to his elegant and interesting designs. Too bad all fashion shows aren’t this chic. To view all the Adam Lippes looks for Spring 2015, check out Style.com and to read more about […]

Fashion Week Kickoff

09 . 04 . 14

New York Fashion Week kicked off last night with a fete at Gracie Mansion and I noticed a theme among a few of the designers.  Jenna Lyons of J.Crew, Ralph Lauren, and Carolina Herrera all wore grey and white.  A great way to transition your white pieces for after Labor Day. I’ll be attending all […]

Even though it’s supposed to be 90 degrees in New York tomorrow, I’m shopping the fall collection that just debuted on Emerson Fry. It’s filled with cozy sweaters and chic coats as well a few pairs of lust worthy shoes and boots. Just as lovely as the clothes is the home in which they shoot […]

Due to a scheduling conflict the 66th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards were broadcast on a Monday night which threw everyone off.  But luckily the celebrities and their stylists weren’t thrown off.  Almost all of the presenters and nominees looked lovely but it was Lizzy Caplan above who stole the show.  Lizzy usually plays the comedic […]

Style and Substance

08 . 09 . 14

I was sitting at a cafe with a friend earlier this week when we both remarked that it was beginning to feel like fall.  Not only has the temperature dropped but the leaves are already falling off the trees.  Each morning, a man from Mairie de Paris sweeps them up along the park outside my […]

Calder and Coppola

08 . 06 . 14

Creativity seems to run through all branches of the Coppola family.  They collaborate on projects at various times as well. According to a tidbit ion the T magazine blog, Sofia Coppola recently photographed the look book for her cousin-in-law, Amanda Blake’s new line of clothing, Calder, in her own New York apartment. Blake studied at Parsons […]

Lower Light

07 . 22 . 14

Paris is known as the City of Light but the light everywhere starts to change once we move closer to autumn.  It becomes lower and warmer which is part of the reason I want to wear more neutrals and warmer colors. They just go together. I was cleaning out a Paris Vogue from May and […]

Speaking of magazines. Run, don’t walk to find a copy of Industrie magazine.  The cover model is former model and current Vogue fashion editor, Tonne Goodman.  The interview inside was conducted by fashion designer Anna Sui and delves into her storied career and signature American style.  Tonne was photographed by Inez and Vinoodh for Industrie.  Honestly, […]

Making Magic in Milan

07 . 16 . 14

I really hope W magazine appreciates that I spent 11 euros on their August issue in Colette yesterday.  While reading online is ok, nothing beats reading a real magazine at night before bed.  It was actually worth the money because I got to see gorgeous photos by Francois Halard of Alessandra Facchinetti’s Milan apartment.  Facchinetti […]

While the sales are going on now in Paris, it’s only a twice a year occurrence.  I miss regular mark downs and deals.  Good thing I can shop online at places like Nordstrom Rack where new styles are added each day and are up to 70% off. I can also shop in my pajamas in […]

I had the great pleasure of attending my first fashion show in Paris Saturday night and I couldn’t have started off with a better one than Hermès. If it hadn’t been raining, the Hermès homme été 2015 show would have taken place in the jardin of le Cloitre des Cordeliers and looked like the sketch above. […]

Roman Holiday

06 . 25 . 14

I’m currently trying to decide if I should go to Italy in July or wait until I return to Europe in October.  These photos that Peter Lindbergh took of Caroline Trentini and actor Louis Garrel in Rome for Vogue have me contemplating hoping on a plane as soon as possible.  But I’m still not sure. […]

As some of you read on Instagram, I’ve finally moved into my own apartment after living with my friend Eleanor and her family for a month. I definitely could not have made such a smooth transition without her generosity and hospitality but more on that later.   I’ve moved to the 7th arrondissement but just […]

First Look at Fall

06 . 16 . 14

Usually by this time in New York, i’m totally sick of my summer clothes and ready for fall.  Because the weather is so much less hot in Paris, I’m perfectly content with my current wardrobe.  Well, that was until I saw the new First Look at Fall feature in the June/July 2014 issue of Harpers’ […]

I received an email from Net-a-Porter this morning informing me that their sale sections were now up to 70% off.  That’s a pretty enticing offer. As I was checking out the options, I thought it might be fun to choose some of my favorites and create three summer outfits for you.  The first is a […]

A New Chance

06 . 08 . 14

The Chance Co. summer preview was the morning of my flight to Paris so I couldn’t attend.  It looks great in the photos they send so I’m sure it was even better in person.  Founder Julia Leach was inspired this season by the beauty of Sweden and has added a little pattern to her repertoire […]
