One of my Instagram followers messaged me about sandals last week. She was having trouble finding something she liked for summer so I said I’d work on a post. I hope more styles are coming this summer because I had a hard time finding anything really exciting and most sandals out right now are very […]
I’ve flirted with color recently but I can’t escape my comfort zone of neutrals. Beige doesn’t have to be boring when you mix it with chic textured accessories and Net-a-Porter has the best options whether you are heading to East Hampton or Essaouira. For the plane or car ride, I’d start with the cream Ribbed […]
I reposted a meme this weekend that asked, “Before Instagram, were people always on vacation?”. It has felt like people have been away all summer but right now it’s compounded by the fact that most Europeans are on holiday for two weeks or even the whole month of August. So if you can’t beat ’em, […]
Just in case you haven’t been following my Instagram stories, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have been in Paris with four of their children on a family holiday. It’s also a bit of a honeymoon since they just tied the knot in Las Vegas and a birthday trip to celebrate Jennifer’s 53rd birthday on Monday. […]
I always find it amazing that the whole of Europe can be en vacances at the same exact time. I exaggerate of course, but only slightly. I haven’t done a color post in a while so this one is inspired by holidays spend on Greek isles and Italian beaches. @valerieleberichel @aerin Belted lace-trimmed cotton dress […]
Everyone who saw the renovated 19th-century farmhouse of Luis Laplace and his partner Christophe Comoy on the island of Menorca in the WSJ. Magazine this weekend immediately fell in love. It’s probably because we haven’t been able to travel to abroad in over a year but it’s also because it doesn’t look overdone or too […]
One of the biggest questions after when will this end is when can we travel again. I don’t think we’ll be able to travel Europe again until late fall or possibly even next year but when we can, you may want to put Venice at the top of your must visit list. There you can […]
Does it feel like everyone you follow on Instagram has been to Positano, Capri, and/or Greece this summer? Now that it’s the end of August, all of Europe is en vacances since they all take their holiday at the same time. This post is an ode to these vacations. Enjoy!

I’m still trying to enjoy summer but the humidity is definitely making it hard. Here’s another color compilation to celebrate these last few weeks. via @haleboyd Sky Blue Swimsuit Amanda printed silk-georgette midi dress – I’d have my tailor cut off the ties on the sleeves via @craigamarkham via @notetosarah via @willelc via @thefacinator L’Officiel […]
The only way to get through winter in New York is to escape to a tropical destination as many times as possible. I’m very lucky to be headed to Mexico tomorrow with Thirdhome and can’t wait for sunshine and warm temperatures. I have resort packing down to a science now but I could use a few […]
I’m not traveling until the fall so it’s hard not to have a little fomo while scrolling through Instagram. It looks like everyone is en vacance somewhere chic like the Amalfi Coast or French Riviera. Here are a few of my favorite images from the last few weeks. @decorno in Italy @hotelducapedenroc in Antibes @aliceinherpalace in Sardinia […]
Sometimes I have to stop looking at Instagram since it looks like everyone is en vacances in Europe right now. The two hot spots I’ve noticed from my feed are Corsica and the Amalfi Coast and Russian fashionista Mira Duma has hit both this week. Not only am I loving her picture post card perfect […]
I ordered a few books online and stopped by The Corner Bookstore today to make sure I have enough to read while I’m away for the long holiday weekend. I picked up The Vacationers which already has me hooked but I also purchased Gone Girl so I can read it before the film version is released. After being […]
The wifi situation has been more spotty than anticipated in the Dominican Republic so I apologize for a lack of posts. But I have to admit that it’s been nice to be on a real holiday and doing no work other than making everyone back in cold New York jealous via Instagram. Except for a […]
One of the things I will never become jaded or complacent about is traveling. At its worst, it’s expensive and exhausting but at its best, it’s inspiring and invigorating. It opens you up new places, new experiences, new friends, and in the best of circumstance, new romances. Things have been a bit stressful lately and […]
I’m on holiday out East this week but I wouldn’t mind spending next August in Marbella, Spain where this beautiful home is located. It was featured in Nuevo Estilo in Spanish so I can’t tell you anything about it but the photos are inspiring without any commentary. Enjoy!
This sign just went up in the window of a chic little frame shop down the street from me. Don’t you wish you could hang up a sign like this and take off on vacation for two weeks?! I’m not actually on vacation but I wish I was of course. What I am doing is […]
