I don’t wear a lot of color to begin with but this time of year always makes me want to start shifting into neutrals in preparation of autumn.  Here’s a little inspiration to help you get in the mood too.  Photo of Paris by me.  Saint Laurent Sac Université Shoulder Bag Daria Werbowy for Mango.  […]

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 […]

I know I said I’d post what I was packing for Paris and I swear I’ll try to get to it soon.  I feel a little out of sorts living in my friend’s apartment. Hopefully, I will get on a good schedule once I get my own place. I’m taking these first two weeks as […]

I’ve seen fashion designer Jeanne Lanvin’s former apartment in the Musée des Arts Decoratifs but I didn’t realize her office had also been preserved for posterity. Lanvin has opened the usually closed off space in honor of the house’s 125th anniversary. As you can see, it hasn’t changed much since she was painted in it by Edouard Vuillard […]

I like to dress up when I travel because you never know who you might see.  I think this is even more important as I embark on my book tour.  Now you can shop some of my chic travel picks at Barneys.  Happy Shopping!

Did you know that fashion designer Jeanne Lanvin’s grandson is an interior designer in Moscow?  Neither did I until yesterday.  I love when creativity runs in a family.  I also love that Jean-Yves Lanvin’s apartment isn’t as over the top as I’ve come to expect from Russian design but I guess that’s because he’s French.  You […]

The first looks from the upcoming Lanvin for H&M collaboration have been released and they have the fashion world in a tizzy.  The dresses are exactly what everyone loves about Lanvin and I’m sure they will be sold out in minutes.  I’m thinking about taking boxing lessons just so I can fight for one.  There […]

The rumors that Lanvin and it’s designer Alber Elbaz would be collaborating with H&M were confirmed yesterday!  Fashionistas everywhere are already in a tizzy and announced that they might actually stand in line for this new collection.  “I have said in the past that I would never do a mass-market collection, but what intrigued me […]

If you follow me on Twitter, then you know I’ve been stalking the progress of Lanvin store on Madison Avenue. Yesterday I noticed mannequins in the window and asked the nice French girl out front when they were going to open. I was rewarded with the words I was longing to hear, “tomorrow afternoon.” Well, […]

Francophiles and fashionistas rejoice! Lanvin is opening its first boutique in New York on Madison Avenue between 68th and 69th Streets in mid June! Visiting Lanvin was one of the highlights of my trip to Paris and I am very excited to be able to make a weekly pilgrimage to this chic shop! I will […]

No trip to Paris would be complete without a trip to Lanvin. We are lucky in New York that Barneys and Kirna Zabete carry some pieces of clothing and jewelry but that’s nothing like having entire store full of nothing but Lanvin! It was heaven! Lanvin is known for their creative window displays and we […]
