Life Lessons

01 . 01 . 16

I usually post my intentions for the year in my annual Write It Down, Make It Happen post on New Year’s Day but I need one more day to prepare. I decided to start this year off right by taking an hour and half yoga class with my favorite instructor this morning. Now I’m going […]

Elf on a Shelf

12 . 17 . 15

I have no idea where Elf on a Shelf originated but no one is more creative with their elves than actress Busy Phillips. Every Christmas, I look forward to following her adorable elves’ adventures Instagram. She even makes little outfits for them. Now that’s a great mom.

One of the most beautiful Instagram accounts I’ve come across recently is that of Alessandro Michele, the creative director of Gucci, @lallo25. None of his photos are captioned but as we know, a picture is worth a thousand words. Many images are of his homes as well as his extensive collection of antiques and vintage […]

I Love Her Style

09 . 23 . 15

I was very excited to read this morning that Amanda Brooks’ blog I Love Your Style (also the name of her first book) is back up and running. Amanda is one of my favorite Instagram friends and I love following her not so new life on Fairgreen Farm in England. Her blog would delve more […]

August

Fairest of the months! Ripe summer’s queen The hey-day of the year With robes that gleam with sunny sheen Sweet August doth appear. – R. Combe Miller   Photo by me via Instagram.

I haven’t met designer Andrew Brown yet in real life but he’s another one of my favorite Instagram friends. So I was beyond excited to learn that his Birmingham, Alabama home was just featured in the August 2015 issue of Veranda magazine. And I’m not just saying that because my book Creativity at Work is […]

Hot Wheels

06 . 20 . 15

One of my favorite pastimes is posting photos to Instagram of all the cool classic cars I see along my travels.  You are guaranteed to spot a lot in Sag Harbor and also Paris. In honor of Father’s Day, I’ve compiled some of my favorites. And if you’re looking last minute gift for your dad or a treat for yourself, […]

What my Instagram account is to the Upper East Side, that’s what Howie Guja‘s is to the East End of Long Island. I’ve been following Howie for years and love all his quintessentially American photos. I even introduced him and his family to my friend Alice and hers and now their children play together on weekends.  Recently others have […]

The other day I noticed a running theme on my Instagram feed. The color yellow kept popping up just like the daffodils all over the city. I thought it would be fun to pull them all together for a post including one from J.Crew above. Bon week-end ! HC Michael Traynor @mjtraynor is visiting Copenhagen, Denmark and […]

Joy

‘Twas Easter-Sunday. The full-blossomed trees Filled all the air with fragrance and with joy.” – Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

English Country Chic

04 . 03 . 15

Do ever feel like you know someone personally because you follow them on Instagram?  While I don’t know Christie’s Chief Content Officer Jeremy Langmead in real life, I’ve very much enjoyed following along as he decorated his new house in the English countryside.  So of course I was very excited when I saw the house featured […]

Eternal Spring

Winter is on my head, but eternal spring is in my heart. – Victor Hugo

Merci Beaucoup!

01 . 14 . 15

Yesterday was a very exciting day.  I hit 50,000 followers on Instagram and want to thank you all for your continued support and encouragement.  Instagram is my happy place and unlike some people, I only post photos I’ve personally taken with my iPhone which makes this milestone that much more special.  It’s hard to find […]

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 still taking some time for myself this week.  If you’re looking for something to read until I’m back to full speed, I highly suggest picking up the January 2015 issue of ELLE magazine.  I was one of the designers asked to share their favorite subtle tweak that can make a big difference to your space […]

Dreaming of Spring

12 . 29 . 14

Sorry for the lack of posts the last two days.  The power cord on my laptop fried and I couldn’t face the Apple store craziness until today. I know a lot of you are on holiday and traveling so it seems like a good time to keep things light anyway. I will definitely have a […]

One of the best things about staying in New York over Christmas is the beautiful and festive decorations.  Anyone who follows me on Instagram knows they are my favorite thing to photograph. My only regret is that I was too busy to make it to the West Village so these are all from the Upper […]
