One sure fire way to be photographed by the street style photographers during fashion week is to wear color. Mr. Newton captured the inspiring outfit above in Milan for Harper’s Bazaar and I love the combination of neutrals, aqua, orange, and purple.  It not only looks nice as an outfit but also in art and […]

While out and about yesterday, I popped into the Ralph Lauren Ladies Mansion to see what was new at Ralph Lauren Home.  They had changed out the rooms for their new spring collections and I was blown away by Rosecliff which reflects “the casual grandeur of the coastal Northeast.” They think of everything to make […]

Yesterday, a friend mentioned noticing via Google how many posts I’ve written on Tory Burch.  I only write about people worth writing about especially when they create aesthetically pleasing products and/or interiors.  Both is true of Tory Burch and I love that her homes and stores inspire many with their great use of color and […]

I don’t recall seeing any photos of the Consuelo Castiglioni’s main residence but there are some great photos of her family’s home in Formentera, Spain.  I have never had a reputation for minimalism but in some instances I definitely think less is more, especially when the point of a place is rest and relaxation.  I […]

I think it was the married straight male magazine editor Glenn O’Brien who once told a woman who mentioned loving Marni that she was lucky she was married. It’s not exactly considered sexy. Although, I think it does look good on those Italian women with tan little arms and legs like its creator Consuelo Castiglioni. […]

It was really cold and snowy for part of New York Fashion Week which was a good excuse for the fashion flock to pull out their furs.  And with so many designers showing fabulous furs on the runway for fall, it definitely made me want to pull mine out too. I especially loved fur coats […]

I spent part of the morning catching up on all my favorite website including T magazine where there was a great story on Olatz Schnabel. Since splitting from artist Julian Schnabel, she’s moved into a new home and the wall colors are extraordinary.  They also reminded me so much of some of the great street […]

I’m still in the middle of editing my photos from fashion week and headed to a meeting with my book designers.  Until I get some some new posts up, I’m leaving you with this look at Derek Lam’s fall fashions for his line 10 Crosby. The look book was shot in an apartment and is […]

Fashion week ended for me today and not a moment too soon.  I don’t think my feet could make it one more day.  It’s always a wonderful ride but also very exhausting.  I don’t know how most editors go on to cover London, Milan, and Paris fashion weeks. I am taking the night off to […]

My usual aversion to pink stems from growing up in a Peptol-Bismol pink bedroom.  That’s not to say that I hate all pink.  I love the dirty pink nude color of my Lanvin bracelets and Club Monaco scarf.   But since it’s Valentine’s Day and all, I figured why not give in to the color […]

After four and a half days of braving the women’s fall shows, I was happy for a brief reprieve at the Michael Bastian men’s fashion show this afternoon.  Every boy blogger in the land was in attendance and the crowd was just as chic as the men who walked the runway.  Fall at Michael Bastian is […]

The best part of going backstage before the Fall 2012 Derek Lam fashion show is that you can see the clothes and accessories up close.  The models walk so fast during the runway shows that it’s easy to miss the shoes and bag not to mention the jewelry.  I also love to see the fabrics […]

Straight off her big night at the Grammys, Adele will grace the cover of the March 2012 issue of Vogue magazine. In a world of autotune and crazy costumes, many people seem to be appreciating Adele’s authenticity and awe inspiring voice.  Myself included and I look forward to seeing what the future holds for this […]

Thanks to my friends at Estée Lauder, I was invited to cover the backstage beauty before the Derek Lam show again this season. It’s always amazing to see how many hours of work go into a 10 minute runway show.   Estée Lauder and Creative Makeup Director Tom Pecheux creates the Face Chart that his team will recreate […]

Today marks the day of the very first presentation of Skaist-Taylor, the new fashion line by former Juicy Couture founders Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Nash Taylor.  I can’t wait to see their new line which is said to be closer to their own high fashion look.  Until then, I thought it would be fun to […]

It’s snowing today in New York which should make for an interesting day at fashion week. While I don’t attend all the shows, I am lucky enough to be invited to many for Fall 2012.  Some of them include BCBG Max Azria, Cynthia Rowley, Herve Leger, Alexander Wang, Christian Siriano, Derek Lam, Tracy Reese, Skaist-Taylor, Zac […]

I’ve recently had a lot of pinch me moments and quite a few occurred this past Wednesday.  I started out the day by meeting uber talented interior designer Stephen Sills at The Apthorp on the Upper West Side for a personal preview of a special exhibition he curated with pieces from the upcoming 20th and […]
