In quarantine it feels like there’s not much to do except eat and shop. I have yet to start my closet clean out and organizing projects but they might have to wait until I see what’s new on sale. If you need a little pick me up, perhaps some more pots and pans, or even […]
Everyone keeps asking how we are in New York. We’re all just taking it one day at a time. Last week was the most stressful as we all waited for word that the city would receive a “shelter in place” order. I think many people think that means that we are not allowed outside. (If […]
In honor of spring, my lovely friend Heidi Wynne is offering Habitually Chic customers 25% off site wide which includes her luxurious cashmere and straw bags. I like to carry a cashmere scarf year round, but especially during spring and summer. They comes in handy when the weather is changeable, restaurants have the air conditioning […]
It was 70 degrees in New York on Monday which makes me glad I’ve already been buying dresses for spring and summer.

My navy jacket from Sézane is sold out but there are other fabric options available. Another great option is this navy Blazé Milano Spirit herringbone double-breasted silk blazer. I’ve been coveting one of their blazers for years and the sale makes it the perfect time to pick one up. This striped boatneck t-shirt was such […]
I apologize for the decrease in posts over the last week. As much as I enjoy travel, it’s been wiping me out lately. I don’t have another trip scheduled for two weeks so I plan to spend that time editing photos and writing lots of new posts. I’m hoping to post over this weekend to […]
Normally, I would put together a list of new and noteworthy art exhibitions, events, movies, and more on Friday but I wanted to give you an early heads up for some of them since they will end on Sunday. I will also be covering the Kips Bay Decorator Show House and traveling this weekend which […]

I have about a 1,000 photos from Charleston to edit and a travel guide to create but until they are ready, I leave you with Easter weekend images from Chateau de Wideville in France. The chateau is owned by Valentino and these photos are from his friends Carlos Souza and Giancarlo Giammetti. While Charleston already […]
As the weather and seasons change, it’s a good time to take stock of your beauty products and see if anything needs updating. I’ve just tried a few new products that I love and wanted to share my reviews in case you need a change too. I have been trying the cult creams from Augustinus […]
Sorry for the lack of posts the last two days. I had a lot going on this week including a sore throat that luckily didn’t turn into anything more. I’m also trying to finalize all my plans for my birthday trip to Charleston next week. I did manage to take a walk in Central Park […]
It was a beautiful weekend in New York and the trees and flowers are just finally starting to bloom. I took a walk in Central Park with the entirety of New York to take in the daffodils and magnolia trees. We’re finally catching up to what feels like the rest of the world, as witnessed […]
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 […]
I’ve always had an affinity for Easter since it heralds the beginning of spring and often falls around my April birthday. This year, I’ll be returning from a birthday trip to Charleston on Easter but I still hope to create a pretty table top for a late meal. If you need any help planning for […]
While I’ve been adding navy and lavender to my spring wardrobe, I also love wearing neutrals. One of my favorite go to outfits is a trench or blazer paired with an ivory blouse, jeans, and flats. I actually wore this exact outfit on Friday when we had a brief warm up to 70 degrees. If […]
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 […]
