You may have noticed that I haven’t blogged in a week. I don’t think I’ve gone this long in the entire 13 years I’ve been blogging and I’m not even exactly sure why, although I’m sure that twelve weeks of quarantine is definitely taking a toll.

We’re having a Nor’easter of all day rain in New York today. Perfect time to bake my family’s famous pumpkin cookies. They’re soft and delicious and you can edit the ingredients to suit your tastes too. Pumpkin Cookies 1 cup sugar 1 cup canned pumpkin ½ cup room temperature butter 1 tablespoon grated orange peel […]

I was telling my friend last weekend about how much I love following Mandy Moore’s mid-century modern house renovation on Instagram. She told me that her friend just wrote an article about it so it seems I’m not alone. Mandy and her fiancé Taylor Goldsmith, who met via Instagram, bought the house a year ago […]

I came across this kitchen on Instagram and it’s definitely one for the future home file. It impressed me even more after I saw the before photos on ArchitecturalDigest.com. Designer Katie Hackworth took the family’s dated kitchen from the 1960’s and brought it into the 21st-century in a beautiful and functional way. The lack of […]

New York kitchens are notoriously small. That’s why we have so many restaurant and delivery options. My own small kitchen is why I’m obsessed with normal sized kitchens online. This Humphrey Munson kitchen isn’t even in a real house. It’s their new St. Albans Showroom Spenlow Kitchen designed by Peter Humphrey, the Design Director and Founder of […]

Easy and Elegant

07 . 18 . 17

I came across this dream kitchen on Architectural Digest and then realized that I know the designers. They are Joshua Greene and Katrina Hernandez of Hernandez Greene who helped the owners create their dream house in Sagaponack on Long Island. Unlike a lot of beach houses, this one looks like it was designed year round. […]

A few weeks ago, I headed down to Birmingham, Alabama with Delta Faucet to tour the Southern Living Idea House for 2016. While the whole house was beautiful, the room that made the most impact was the gorgeous green kitchen and family room by local architect and interior designer Bill Ingram. It was inspired by a […]

Another Dream Kitchen

04 . 19 . 16

Sorry for the radio silence. I took a few days off to enjoy the weekend in the Hamptons and my birthday. One special treat was the opportunity to see Steven Gambrel’s project at 42 Howard Street in Sag Harbor, the Captain Overton House that I posted recently. Needless to say, it was even better in person […]

Chic in Sweden

01 . 20 . 16

I came across the photo above on Pinterest and immediately wanted to see more of this home. Turns out it belongs to former model and stylist Malin Persson and her family and was featured on The Way We Play. They had been living in Rome for many years when she and her husband Damiano decided to […]

Ultimate Dream Kitchen

12 . 23 . 15

My kitchen obsession continues but I think I may have found the ultimate dream kitchen. The high-glosss black and brass accented Brooklyn brownstone kitchen just featured in Lonny was designed by David Nastasi and Kate Vail for a client.  Since space is at a premium in New York, I love that they took the cabinets all the […]

If you happen to be in New York this holiday season,I suggest you make time to stop by the gorgeous new Goop Mrkt Pop Up Shop. I’ve seen her previous pop up shops but they pale in comparison to the “home” that designers Roman & Williams created in the Shops at Columbus Circle. The entirely […]

Most of you know that One Kings Lane sells chicly curated furniture and accessories online but I’m sure not as many know that you can now shop the One Kings Lane Studio in person in New York.  The Studio is a new showroom located at their Hudson Street headquarters set up like a large apartment which […]

Very excited to announce that you can see the full tour of my apartment on One Kings Lane today. The best part is that you can shop for lots of wonderful art, accessories, furniture, and more that have my Francophile Style. Bon week-end !

There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about gut renovating my tiny kitchen. Small New York City kitchens are probably why everyone goes out to restaurants or orders in. I have folders full of dream kitchen inspiration and this one has gone to the top of the list. It was designed […]

You know a kitchen design is good when it makes you mentally redesign your own space.  That’s how I feel about the Sotheby’s Showhouse kitchen designed by St. Charles of New York using appliances by Gaggenau. The custom color of the cabinetry and brass hardware is a perfect contrast to the antique silver and china from […]

Kips Bay Kitchen

06 . 11 . 14

I feel bad that I didn’t get more Kips Bay Decorator Show House posts up before I left town or before it ended.  But in the interest of better late than never, I’m going to try to post a few more rooms this summer. One room that was especially impressive and also full of practical […]

Grey Days

10 . 09 . 13

As soon as the weather turns grey and chilly like today, I start pulling out my grey clothes.  It’s become my go since it’s less harsh than black and is the perfect complement to my hair color. As we know, it’s also a popular choice of paint color and plays well with almost every other […]
