Last night, I had the pleasure of attending a dinner to celebrate the launch of the new Remy Renzullo x Carolina Irving & Daughters, Olympia and Ariadne Irving, collection launch on Moda Operandi. I haven’t seen Remy in person in years since he’s been spending more of his time in London working on Castle Howard. […]

I get the feeling that maybe the very private Deeda Blair probably didn’t want to write a book but I’m very glad that someone talked her into it. And she realized that it was a perfect way to raise money for charity which is where the proceeds are going. There are very few truly elegant […]

The foreword of Tiffany’s Table Manners for Teenagers by Walter Hoving says the following. “Good manners are as important as good grooming and good behavior. Unfortunately, however, in this day of confused standards, manners are sometimes sadly neglected. This is especially true of table manners. At Tiffany’s our interest in attractive tables set with good […]

This has been a trying year to say the least but it’s given many of us time to pause and realize what we have to be grateful for now. This year and every year, I am thankful for all my loyal blog readers and Instagram followers. I am also grateful for all the lovely people […]

Even though I have a very small kitchen and no separate dining room in my New York apartment, I obsessively collect antique china and silver. So when Sotheby’s asked if I’d like to collaborate with them on their Dining IN online auction happening now, I jumped at the chance. Since everyone is spending so much […]

Interior designer Remy Renzullo loves to entertain and collects antique china to set his table. He is such an avid collector that he reached out to me on Instagram last summer when I posted photos from the Nantucket Antiques Show to find out which vendor was selling plates in one of his china patterns. The […]

Every once in a while there is an event that overtakes Instagram, in a good way, and this week it was the Zimmermann press trip to Capri. The fashion brand had invited a select group of celebrities and influencers to the idyllic island to celebrate the opening of their 35th store. While Zimmermann dresses usually […]

I can’t believe the year is half over and the Fourth of July is next week. I love Independence Day celebrations and the preppy red, white, and blue fashion, accessories, and decor that let Americans show their patriotism.
