I loved the photos of Arabella Musgrave’s wedding to George Galliers-Pratt that I saw on Instagram last month so it was nice to see the official photos on Vogue.com this morning. It was an understated and chic affair with beautiful flowers by Nikki Tibbles of Wild at Heart and a dress by Frida Giannini for […]
Most 21 year olds don’t move into multi-level homes decorated by Nate Berkus, but then again, model Karlie Kloss is not your average 21 year old. Vogue has a few pics of her chic downtown home in the March issue and online but I also found the before photos and the floor plan from the […]
The best part of spring, besides the warmer weather, are all the new shows and exhibitions that are opening. One of the chicest is Dries Van Noten: Inspirations at Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris on view until 31 August 2014.The first exhibition devoted to the Belgian designer “takes us on an intimate journey into his […]
I’ve seen fashion designer Jeanne Lanvin’s former apartment in the Musée des Arts Decoratifs but I didn’t realize her office had also been preserved for posterity. Lanvin has opened the usually closed off space in honor of the house’s 125th anniversary. As you can see, it hasn’t changed much since she was painted in it by Edouard Vuillard […]
It’s so cold that there really isn’t much to do but stay in and watch television. If that’s your plan, I suggest checking out The Fashion Fund on Ovation. The six episode documentary follows the Vogue CFDA Fashion Fund 2013 applicants from the process of applying to the 10 finalists competing for the coveted top […]
“He who seeks beauty shall find it.” – Bill Cunningham I’ve been trying to figure out how to broach a certain topic on the blog recently and I think the time has finally come. I was really disappointed in some of you who emailed and left comments harshly criticizing the looks of the women I […]
Fashionista.com featured old Christmas covers from the magazines on their site and I thought some of them were worth reposting. They are charming and sweet and make me wistful for the days before celebrities started staring out from the newsstands. Happy Holidays!
I watched Blue Jasmine on the plane back from Paris. I have to say I didn’t love it but I did love Cate Blanchett. I am however loving the interior that she was photographed in for the January 2014 issue of Vogue. I hope they give a location credit in the issue which should be […]
I always find fashion stories so much more compelling when they are set in a beautiful interior instead of a blank backdrop. The feature with Liev Schreiber and Doutzen Kroes in the November 2013 issue of Vogue is titled L.A. Confidential but looks to be set in a contemporary townhouse in the West Village or […]
The idea of planning a big expensive wedding gives me hives. But I also don’t want to get married at City Hall which is why I love finding chic and elegant weddings for inspiration. Interior designer Asia Baker’s Oyster Bay wedding featured on Vogue is one that’s definitely going in my file for future reference. […]
When you work on a book, you realize during the process that sometimes certain elements don’t work or you don’t have enough pages to include everything you had originally intended. Lucky for me, I knew that I would be able to feature these interviews and workspace photos on the blog. While we did feature photos […]
It’s my dream to spend time with my ultimate style idol, Carolina Herrera. Until that actually happens, I’ll make due with these images of her very chic studio via Vogue and her instagram feed. Photos by Victoria Will via Vogue
Taking time off is great until you come back over scheduled and over frazzled. Hence the lack of post yesterday. I hope to be back on track later tonight but until then I leave you with a little something chic, the home of Bruno Frisoni and Hervé Van der Straeten in Tangier, Morocco from Vogue. Bruno Frisoni […]
Big thanks to my style and business idol Aerin Lauder for including me on her list of twitter accounts to follow during fashion week! I love being sandwiched between NY1 Weather, very important to follow when getting dressed each day, and legendary fashion designer Michael Kors.

During fashion week, I read that Vanessa Traina was a newlywed. I didn’t realize she had gotten married so a quick Google search ensued. I found beautiful black and white images of her wedding to artist Max Snow on Purple DIARY by Oliver Zahm online and wondered if it would be published in Vogue. Today […]
Long time readers will remember my aversion to pink. After growing up in a pink bedroom, I can’t even imagine ever living with the color again. But just because it’s not right for me doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate it in someone else’s home. I don’t know journalist Alina Cho but I often see her […]
I loved this spread Lost Highway the minute I saw it in the October 2012 issue of Vogue. It features model Kati Nescher and Garrett Hedlund who stars as Dean Moriarty in the upcoming film On the Road due out in December. It reminds me of my dad’s road trip photos from the late 1960’s […]
