The Row in New York

05 . 23 . 16

While I was in Peru, my friend David Lawrence posted Instagram photos from The Row‘s new store at 17 East 71st Street in New York. Lucky for me, it’s located in my neighborhood on the Upper East Side and I can’t wait to stop by this week. As you know, there is nothing I love more […]

Everyone keeps asking me when I’m going back to California and now I have another reason to book a trip. One Kings Lane has just opened a new chic Studio in San Francisco that’s filled with great decorating pieces for summer. The best part is that if you can’t visit the Studio in person, you can […]

Chic Shirtdresses

04 . 13 . 16

The weather is beginning to warm up which means I’ll soon be able to wear my favorite staple, the shirtdress. I own them in every color and style but keep adding more to my wardrobe.  As soon as I saw Everlane‘s new Striped Cotton Poplin Shirtdress above, I knew it would be another perfect addition. […]

After two days of warm weather, we are expecting snow tomorrow. I guess I’m going to have to wait a little while longer to wear my new spring finds from J.McLaughlin. J.McLaughlin Britt Linen Shirt – My closet is full of blue shirts but that never stops me from buying a new one each spring. […]

It’s cold and rainy in Paris this morning, so I’m dreaming of warmer weather and the new spring collection at J. McLaughlin is making me dream even harder. I love all the pretty colors and fun patterns that are perfect for work and weekend. I want to be wearing all of them while enjoying some sunshine. To help […]

Montecito Magic

03 . 03 . 16

The highlight of my recent trip to California was visiting Montecito. It’s an idyllic town in Santa Barbara where a few people I know live. They say once you visit Montecito, you will buy a house there and will I am not sure about the three month deadline, I could definitely see myself living there […]

Emerson Fry is Back

03 . 02 . 16

After a warehouse move and a brief hiatus, Emerson Fry is back with a new light and breezy collection for Spring/Summer 2016. The pieces are mostly white, black, and nude with a little pattern thrown into the mix. It’s making me want to plan another warm weather trip and it will probably make you want […]

LA Outfit Ideas

02 . 15 . 16

I feel like I packed better for my trip to California last week than I have for past trips but I still get nervous about what to wear in Los Angeles. It’s much more casual than New York and encompasses lots of layers. The temperature was in the 60’s when I arrived which prompted everyone […]

Visiting Violet Grey

02 . 14 . 16

One of the first placesI went shopping in Los Angeles last week was the boutique Violet Grey. The Melrose Place mecca for carefully curated beauty products did not disappoint. I saw a lot of things I already use which was gratifying like the Chanel Sublimage line which I swear is the key to surviving long plane […]

Miri Mara Ceramics

02 . 12 . 16

While I was in Montecito last weekend, designer Kendall Conrad was insistent that I visit Miri Mara Ceramics. After seeing the unique shapes, textures, and colors of their pieces, I can see why.  Owner Fatmir “Miri” Mara was a fashion designer in Milan for almost 20 years before he and his husband decided to retire to Santa Barbara. […]

There are so many wonderful stores in the Montecito Country Mart such Kendall Conrad, Merci to Go, and Hudson Grace, but I was most excited to finally see my friend Matt Albiani’s Mate Gallery. The nautical themed jewel box is filled to the brim with seascapes, first edition books, knick knacks, clothing, and more. It’s […]

Perfectly Flat

01 . 29 . 16

I happened to stop into the uptown Madewell store yesterday after a meeting and fell in love with these two tone d’orsay Lydia Flats. They would be perfect for my trip to California next week. Unfortunately, they didn’t have my size in the store so I have to pick them up downtown this weekend. They […]

Sunny Days

01 . 26 . 16

The sun is shining and the snow is melting. Perfect time for J.Crew to launch their new line of sunglasses. There are six different frame styles for women and three for men ranging in price from $98 to $128. A perfect little present to buy yourself to get through the end of winter.

Denim Days

12 . 10 . 15

I realized recently that I’ve been wearing the same style jeans for the last few years.  It’s definitely time to branch out and add some new styles to my closet. I can’t think of anyone better to look to for inspiration other than Vogue Paris editor in chief, Emmanuelle Alt. She’s photographed outside the fashion […]

Everlane Mini

12 . 07 . 15

I’ve professed my love for Everlane over the years and now there are more reasons to love the online retailer. Today they have just launched Everlane Mini, a chic and simple collection for the little people in your life. The 11-piece collection includes similar essentials favorited by adults including classic striped tees, cashmere sweaters, and knit accessories without […]

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 […]

Grey Days

12 . 01 . 15

While I have been buying Christmas presents for others, I’ve also been buying myself a few things. The sales have been so great that it was hard not to take advantage of them. After a few deliveries arrived yesterday, I realized that most of what I’ve bought is grey.  It’s my go to color for […]
