While I was on Mackinac Island, everyone kept commenting on and complimenting my espadrilles. I brought three pair because they are comfortable and the flat pairs are easy to pack. I’m not the only one who is a fan of espadrilles. The Duchess of Cambridge and her sister Pippa Middleton Matthews share a love for […]
I’m in Sag Harbor this week and I’ve already done a little shopping. It was warmer than expected when I arrived so I bought this white shirt and yesterday I finally succumbed to the Birkenstock trend with this white pair from the Goop pop up shop. Since it’s raining here today and I am delaying […]
Today marks the unofficial start of summer and chances are you are going away this long holiday weekend. I’m in the Hamptons and there are a lot of exciting new pop up shops opening this weekend. There are also fun events happening in New York for those of you visiting the city or when you […]
I had planned to post my Mother’s Day Gift Guide last week but my time in Charleston got away from me. But don’t worry, you still have time to shop for the wonderful women in your life. Mother’s Day falls on Sunday, May 12th which gives you three weeks to pick out the perfect presents. […]
On Thursday morning, I headed downtown to preview the new Hermès store in the Meatpacking District. The area used to actually be where they packed meat in New York. You would almost break an ankle on the cobblestones when you went to Pastis or Florent. Now those iconic places are gone and the cobblestones have […]
A reader contacted me yesterday with a fashion conundrum. She bought a navy dress I recently posted and was looking for suggestions on what shoes to pair with it for a casual work environment. I sent her a few options for which she was grateful and decided it might be nice to put together some […]
Although we’re not completely out of the winter woods yet, the warmer and sunnier weather this week has everyone excited for spring. I’ve been getting my wardrobe ready for the change of season so I thought I’d share a few of my finds with you. It’s also a good time to go through your closet […]
As I mentioned earlier this week, I’m loving lavender right now. It feels like the breath of fresh air we need to start the month of March. I realized that the pinker shade is more lilac than lavender so I’ve put together some of my favorites in both shades. If none of these strike your […]
Did you watch The Last Days of John F. Kennedy, Jr. last week? The best part was seeing videos of him with Carolyn Bessette Kennedy. We normally see photos of her running away from the paparazzi so it was nice to see her smiling and actually hear her voice. It’s also amazing that her fashion […]
I’ve had a couple of readers ask me to post what I bought myself for Christmas since they loved my post of these items last year. A few things have already sold out, a few have limited sizes left, and others have a lot of availability so get them before they are gone. Long time […]
Now that Christmas is over, it’s time to think about New Year’s Eve. If you are still looking for a pair of party shoes, I’ve picked out some of my favorites for any weather condition and heel height preference. There are also some great sales happening now if Santa didn’t bring you what you wanted […]
Today I heard there are only 39 days until Christmas. I’m definitely not ready and if you aren’t either, we have our first favorite things gift guide of the season to help get you started on your shopping. I love this set of 4 Aerin Holiday Salad Plates. They would make a great gift with […]
In addition to flay lay outfits, I’ve been receiving many requests for color posts. I lost interest after other people started to copy them but since so many readers love them, I will try to bring them back on a more regular basis. As a follow up to yesterday’s neutral outfit is a neutral color […]
I was in the middle of writing a post on espadrilles, the perfect summer shoe, when I came across this photo of Pippa Middleton and her brother at Wimbledon yesterday. Pippa has summer dressing down to a science and her ensembles usually involves espadrilles which are chic and comfortable. The pair she’s wearing by Penelope […]
It felt like we had a week of spring in New York and then went straight to summer. One good thing about the warmer weather is that it’s finally sandal season. I went a little crazy buying sandals recently and I can’t wait to wear them all. I’ve put them together with some other chic […]
This first Aquazzura for de Gournay Collection that debuted last year was a huge hit so it’s no surprise that they are back together again this spring. The first partnership was pink and this latest Aquazzura for de Gournay Amazonia collaboration is blue just like the de Gournay showroom in San Francisco that I saw last […]
