It’s the Fourth of July holiday weekend but it doesn’t feel as celebratory this year especially since many people can’t travel or see their family. I’ve put together some things to get you through this weekend whether you will be spending it at home or the beach. My first trip post quarantine was to Sag […]
The tourism board of New Orleans should make Jane Scott Hodges an honorary ambassador. My visit to the Crescent City would not have been half as chic without her expert guidance. She and Debra Shriver of Hearst, who also lives in Nola, were kind enough to take me to lunch at Lilette and a tour […]
I don’t know anyone who decorates chicer for Christmas than Suzanne Rheinstein. The Los Angeles based interior designer incorporates many Southern traditions in her decorations based on her childhood upbringing in New Orleans. They include citrus fruits, gilded magnolia leaves, and pomanders among other things. I posted some of these photos from One Kings Lane a […]
Yesterday, I had the opportunity to tour the new One Kings Lane store in the downtown Soho neighborhood of New York. The store doesn’t officially open to the public until Friday, November 2nd but many people already were trying to open the door to get inside to shop. Once you look through my photos, you’ll […]
Memorial Day weekend always marks the unofficial start of summer and with it comes a multitude of pop up shops in the Hamptons. Make sure you stop by some of these when you’re out east. Aerin has added an East Hampton outpost this summer that is filled with her own Aerin Beauty and Williams-Sonoma lines, […]
It’s fitting that the word “home” is in the title of Home Again since homes play a major part of the films by Nancy Meyers such as The Holiday, Something’s Gotta Give, and It’s Complicated. This time though she’s the producer and her daughter Hallie Meyers-Shyer is the writer and director. Home Again stars Reese Witherspoon […]
It came as no surprise that CeCe Barfield Thompson worked for interior designer Bunny Williams when I saw that drinks table perfectly placed next to an armchair in her apartment feature on One Kings Lane today. “I learned so much in Bunny’s office, but I’d say what I really took away is the importance of […]
Last week, I had the pleasure of getting a tour of the new One Kings Lane pop up shop in Southampton from president Debbie Propst. The store is located at 11 Jobs Lane in what was the old Southampton library that has been empty for years. The large building gives OKL the opportunity to create rooms to […]
Speaking of One Kings Lane, the design studio just helped Jennifer Meyer‘s design team of Pierce & Ward decorate her new light filled Los Angeles home. I love all pared down spaces as well as the cozy blue office. It’s another home that makes me want to declutter and also buy a pink sofa. To shop […]
I took hundreds of photos today at the new One Kings Lane store in Southampton. Until I get a chance to edit them, I thought I’d show you the beautiful lunch that One Kings Lane hosted for us after the store visit at the Wolffer Estate Winery in Sagaponack. It was simple and chic and would […]
I’m off to visit the new One Kings Lane store in Southampton today. I’ll be bringing you an in depth look in a future blog post but you can follow along today on Instagram and Instagram Stories. And while I’m gone, I highly suggest you check out the new markdowns at Net-a-Porter where you can […]
My sweet friend Amy Stone just had her apartment featured on One Kings Lane this weekend. A few months ago, she moved from the West Village to a Pre-War apartment on the Upper East Side. The Studio at One Kings Lane helped her pull it together. While Amy is not new to New York, I […]
Kate Schelter and I have many friends in common but I didn’t meet the artist and “creative girl” until she painted the menus for my EBTH dinner party which she also attended last fall. In honor of her upcoming book Classic Style: Hand It Down, Dress It Up, Wear It Out, One Kings Lane is looking into […]
You may remember my recent feature on Kate Rheinstein Brodsky‘s store KRB last month. Now One Kings Lane has a lovely feature on her family apartment on the Upper East Side. I’ve also included a few photos from her cover feature from Elle Decor in 2015. The best thing about the OKL story is that you […]
I apologize for the radio silence on the blog this weekend. It was much harder to work from Mexico than I had anticipated. Two back to back trips were also a bit exhausting. But now that I am back for good, I am ready to start decorating for Christmas and I’m using Suzanne Rheinstein’s house […]
I always joke that I’m a Southerner trapped in the body of a Yankee. I absolutely love antiques, china, silver, and proper manners. If I don’t end up retiring to Paris. I will definitely end up down south and if I do, I hope my home looks like Julia Reed‘s. The writer and author moved from […]
Everyone knows that space is at a premium in New York but that doesn’t mean you have to skimp on style in a small apartment. While Cole Wilson works at One Kings Lane and had help pulling her place together from OKL Studio designer Alex Reid, it’s still a great example of how you can […]
