London Calling

09 . 19 . 12

I feel like something must be off in the universe if the street style photos from London are more normal than the ones from New York. I’m so over everyone’s technicolor dream coat outfits of nine different prints and crazy get ups.  While some here have mixed patterns I think it’s done in the best […]

Loving Lake Bell

08 . 30 . 12

I’ve always thought Lake Bell had great personal style but now we get to see that she also has great eye for design.  Probably helps that her mother, Robin Bell, is an interior designer but the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.  Thanks to APT by LSD today on Vogue, we get to peek […]

Pretty in Provence

08 . 09 . 12

When Janet and Gilbert de Botton set about finding a house in the South of France, they finally settled on a 1,000 acre bull farm in Provence.  From it, they created, along with decorator and landscape architect Jean-Louis Raynaud and his partner Kenyon Kramer, “one of the great contemporary estates of our time.” Jacob Rothschild […]

The January in Fashion

08 . 09 . 12

“September is the January in fashion.” – Candy Pratts Price I love quoting that line from The September Issue because it’s so true.  The September issues have already started to arrive and I can’t wait to get my hands on the new Vogue.  At 916 pages, it really will be their biggest issue ever! Woo […]

A Good Day

07 . 19 . 12

Many of my days are spent working at home alone. That’s why I enjoy getting out and about for appointments and meetings.  Tuesday was especially fun filled so I thought I’d give you a glimpse into a good day.   It started with a 10:0am press appointment for India Hicks Jewelry at The Mark Hotel. […]

Magnifique Marion

07 . 16 . 12

French actress Marion Cotillard is the August Vogue cover girl.  She’s promoting the Dark Knight Rises but while I was at the Angelika to see Farewell, My Queen (which is great, btw!) I saw a preview for one of her French firms, Little White Lies.  It was written and directed by her boyfriend and baby daddy […]

Apartment with Art

06 . 25 . 12

I’m a bit under the weather and preparing for a magazine photo shoot in my apartment on Thursday.  Good times.  But this apartment full of amazing art featured on APT by LSD on Vogue.com today made me feel a little better.  It’s owned by Kyle DeWoody whose mother is uber major art collector Beth Rudin […]

By George

05 . 30 . 12

I’ve seen the photo of The Divers above dozens of times yet didn’t realize the photographer was George Hoyningen-Huene until recently.  He was born in Russia in 1900 and during the Russian Revolution fled to London and later Paris.  He worked as a photographer and eventually became chief of photography at French Vogue.  In 1931, he […]

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala otherwise known as the Met Gala is described as the East Coast Oscars.  The red carpet rivals that of the Academy Awards but at this event, the models and fashion designers outshine the celebrities.  The entire purpose is to raise money and have a chic evening and […]

Great Scott

04 . 19 . 12

My appointment at the hair salon yesterday gave me time to read the new May issue of Vogue.  It features the Paris apartment of fashion designer and former model L’Wren Scott.  For those of you who don’t know, she has also been dating Sir Mick Jagger for the last ten years. That’s actually important information […]

Some people’s homes get featured a million times and others seem to sit quietly under the radar.  The latter is why I was very excited to see Patricia Herrera Lansing’s apartment featured on APT with LSD on Vogue.com.  In case you don’t know, Patricia is the daughter of my style idol Carolina Herrera.  The chicness […]

Puttin’ on the Ritz

03 . 19 . 12

I flew to Chicago for a meeting Sunday afternoon and instead of connecting to the wifi and doing work, I relaxed and read my new magazines.  One of my favorite spreads in the April issue of Vogue featured Kate Moss in the Hôtel Ritz in Paris.  It was shot by photographer Tim Walker who is known for […]

Molto Mario

02 . 28 . 12

I love the opportunity to peek into the homes of people whom I admire.  As my photography hobby becomes more important in my life, I am always looking at the work of others as inspiration.  Mario Testino is a photographer who is not only talented but seems to really enjoy himself as witnessed in The […]

All Hail Adele

02 . 13 . 12

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 […]

I’ve asked a few people to be featured in the book from whom I didn’t hear back.  Former model and stylist turned shoe designer Tabitha Simmons was one.  But it all makes sense now. The five story townhouse that she shares with her husband photographer Craig McDean and her family is featured in the February […]

Marvelous Meryl

12 . 12 . 11

I think readers of all ages will enjoy the January issue of Vogue magazine featuring Meryl Streep on the cover.  There is already Oscar buzz over her upcoming role as former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady and probably rightly so.  Just looking at her in costume made me think the same.  […]

Chic Revisted

11 . 27 . 11

I was thinking about reposting Aerin Lauder’s beautiful holiday decorated East Hampton home from the old House & Garden when I discovered new photos on Vogue.com.  It’s also been seen in Elle Decor but with any family house it has evolved and changed over the years.  It looks like the living room has been repainted […]
