Every since I first heard Julia Amory mention that her house was being photographed for Veranda, I’ve been waiting to see the feature and it’s finally here. The July/August 2023 issue of Veranda not only includes her Southampton house but also Palm Beach photographed by Nick Mele which you can see online. I especially love […]

I perfectly happy planning my Upstate and New England trips until I saw this Canoneta Orchard Townhouse for sale in Sóller, Mallorca. It was designed by Berrow Projects which was founded in 2016 by Archie and Monty Berrow who fell in love with the architecture and natural beauty of Sóller and saw an opportunity to […]

One of the highlights of my trip to Sag Harbor was getting to see my friend Chris Kann‘s charming Sag Harbor cottage. I’ve seen photo on Instagram but it’s even better in person. I arrived around 4:00pm on Friday and the light was so beautiful. We drank rosé in the yard and watched the cardinals […]

Pool Party

05 . 26 . 14

While many of you were enjoying the unofficial start of summer this weekend in the United States, France is getting ready for their own long holiday weekend starting this Thursday. It’s time to enjoy warmer weather and swimming. I remember working on a design project years ago where I had to find as many photos […]

I’m packing my bag and getting ready for a weekend getaway in the Hamptons.  I always feel bad that the Hamptons gets such a bad rap. Granted the traffic is hideous and the party scene can be is a bit ridiculous but it’s the closest place we harried New Yorkers have to unwind.  No wonder […]

Outdoor Chic

11 . 01 . 11

Since I live in New York City and don’t have a terrace, looking at outdoor furniture can be depressing but visiting the Lane Venture showroom in High Point Market was actually inspiring.  I can’t wait to own a pool and patio someday so I can own some of theit cool European inspired chairs and lounges.  I also […]

Pool Party

06 . 08 . 11

It’s going to be 95 degrees today and 98 degrees tomorrow.  Needless to say, I’d rather be cooling off in a pool instead of running around to appointments in the steamy city.  Since I can’t play hookey, I’m hoping that these pool pictures will help me think cool thoughts.  Except for the last one of […]

The new Spring 2011 ads for Salvatore Ferragamo were just released this week. Creative Director Massimiliano Giornetti said this collection was inspired by the 1969 French film La Piscine (The Swimming Pool) and he wanted to portray “that free-spirit, bohemian, gypsy attitude.” I thought it might be fun to continue our warm weather posts with […]

Bon Weekend!

I’m heading down to Soho today to continue my carpet search but where I would really like to be is gallivanting around a pretty garden like Jennifer Garner. I’d also like to wearing the same pretty dresses while the pool boy brings me a glass of lemonade! What’s your weekend fantasy??? Photos by Patrick Demarchelier
