It’s rainy and cold this morning. Perfect day to stay in bed, especially a bedroom as cozy and warm looking as interior designer Andrew Brown‘s redecorated space. Andrew recently participated in The Schumacher Challenge in which he updated his bedroom using fabrics and wallcoverings from their Orient Express Collection. He upholstered the walls in a […]
We had the first real day of crisp, cool fall weather in New York and it was glorious! I’m so happy the muggy and humid weather is over so I can wear sweaters without sweating. I hope you get out and enjoy yourself this weekend. I’ve rounded up a few things you might want to […]
We only have minimal leaf color change in New York right now but I’m hoping the next few weeks bring the look and feel of fall. Until then, here’s some October inspiration to get you in the mood. Mark Cross Grace Shoulder Bag Melton Wool Blend Coat Camel Cashmere Turtleneck Cashmere Turtleneck Sweater Gabriela Hearst […]
It’s still not coat weather in New York so I’ve been living in jeans and blazers. Most of the time, they end up shoved in my bag after the temperature rises into the 70’s or 80’s but at least I start the day looking chic. I’ve picked out some of my favorites that can be […]
Steven Gambrel has been at it again. He recently renovated the Captain Osborne Edwards House from 1854 at 27 Suffolk Street in Sag Harbor with Timeless Homes and now it can be yours for $6,795,000 via Corcoran. The six bedroom home has been updated with modern conveniences including a pool and pool/guest house and all those […]
This has been the longest week ever and I am very much looking forward to the weekend. There is so much great stuff happening that I know there will be something for everyone. In addition to the Halsbrook Friends and Family Sale, lots of other retailers are having Friends and Family discounts and other sales […]
Fall is my favorite fashion season and Halsbrook has some of the chicest pieces for leaf peeping and apple picking, as well as work and special events. The best part is that the Halsbrook Friends and Family Sale starts today. You can save 20% off your order with the code FRIEND20 through Thursday, October 11, […]
Since I wasn’t able to work while I was away in Charlottesville last week, I’ve been playing catch up all this week. I had wanted to post my photos from Monticello today but I just didn’t have any time to edit them so they will have to wait until next week. While looking for something […]
I’m going to have to make more room on my bookshelves for all the new design and coffee table books out this fall. I’ve already received advance copies of some of them and they are all interesting and inspiring. Some are traditional monographs from interior designers and others delve into original topics which means there […]
I’m back from my whirlwind week in Charlottesville, Virginia and I feel like I’m still recovering. The first 36 Hours in Charlottesville Wine Country were jam packed with chef’s tasting meals and wine tastings in beautiful bucolic settings. I’m recapping this part of my trip here and will put together a travel guide to Charlottesville […]
I rarely even bother to look at street style photos anymore. I know they will be full of outlandish fashions meant to be photographed instead of women with their own personal style. That’s why I was excited to come across Claire Thomson-Jonville on Atelier Doré. Her perfectly insouciant look led me to believe that she […]
I posted this home in Charlottesville, Virginia belonging to Marina Rust and her family almost exactly one year ago. Now I’m headed to the area tomorrow for a 36 Hours in Charlottesville Wine Country trip after which I’m staying to explore the town and visit Monticello. I’ve been wanting to visit Thomas Jefferson’s home since I […]
The third fall collection from Sézane just launched today and of course I want everything. The coats, sweaters, and boots are perfect for the cooler weather that has finally arrived in New York. I’m headed down to Soho to shop at Sézane to see what I can find for an upcoming trip but luckily everything […]

Max Mara Belted Wool Coat Cashmere Sweaters Cashmere Turtleneck Sweater Loewe Leather Tote Suede Smoking Slippers Dewberry Hotel Pointelle Knit Cardigan Sweater Camel Coat Sézane Fall Collection Leather Tote Oversized Wool and Cashmere […]
When my lovely friend Andrea Stanford comes to town, we always go somewhere new. Last night it was the recently opened hotspot Manhatta. The newest edition to the Danny Meyer restaurant empire is terribly chic but the view of all of lower Manhattan is what really steals the show. Manhatta is located on the 60th floor […]
While I was at the Cabana Pop Up Party last week with my friend Young Huh, she announced that she was in need of a new tote bag for fall. Since we were at Bergdorf Goodman, I offered to go downstairs and help her find one. We kept bumping into people we knew at the […]
One day this past April, I was getting ready to attend the press preview for the Peggy and David Rockefeller Collection auction at Christie’s. It was raining and I knew I would run into people I knew there and the Kips Bay Decorator Show House press preview on the same day so I wanted to […]
It’s finally cooler in New York and this blazer outfit from Ann Taylor is one that is on heavy rotation right now. It’s also perfect for a few upcoming trips I have coming up down south this fall. The best thing about Ann Taylor is that they offer a wide range of inclusive sizes in […]
I posted this house with the iconic blue door on Instagram last week and two days later, I found out it is actually for sale from the estate of the late Drue Heinz who died in April. The classic brick Georgian townhouse at One Sutton Place was designed in the 1920’s for Anne Vanderbilt, wife […]
There are always great parties each fall in New York but the place to be last night was the Cabana magazine pop up party at Bergdorf Goodman. Italian founder Martina Mondadori Sartogo was on hand to celebrate her new colorful Persia Collection along with Aerin Lauder, Ashley Hicks, and Lee Radziwill, and many others. The […]
