As many of you get ready to jet off to warmer climates soon, you will definitely want to order something for your trip from the new luxury resort collection from Danielle Fichera. I had a chance to visit her showroom last month and I can attest that each piece is beautifully made in Italian fabrics […]
I stopped by the Ralph Lauren Ladies Mansion last week to check out the new Ralph Lauren Home collections. Islesboro, the prettiest late summer collection was inspired by the “storied refinement of a grand coastal estate, where archival patterns and vintage inspired furnishings meet refreshing ease ad enveloping warmth.” Islesboro is a lovely island off […]

Some people are experiencing the summertime blues because they don’t want summer to end. I have the summertime blues because it’s too hot and humid. I can’t wait for cooler fall weather but I’m going to try to embrace these last few weeks with some more of your favorite color compilation posts. Nine Fair Backgammon […]
The most depressing day of the year has been declared as Monday, 15 January 2018. Blue Monday supposedly signifies the day when the holidays are over, the bills for presents are piling up, your waistline is increasing, and the weather is cold and grey. It also happens to fall on the Martin Luther King, Jr. […]
I love walking through the Pacific and Presidio Heights neighborhoods every time I visit San Francisco. I don’t remember seeing this Tudor house designed by Hillary Thomas which is a shame.

One of the things I learned while living in Paris is that some of the most elegant homes in Paris can be found on rue de Varenne in the 7th arrondissement. It comes as no surprise that the 18th-century apartment of Pierre Sauvage of Casa Lopez is located on this very chic street. It’s featured […]
I picked up Architectural Digest on the newsstand Monday and love the “Dream Houses” featured in the May 2017 issue. It was also nice to see more of Aerin Lauder‘s family home in Palm Beach where her Williams Sonoma collection was photographed. The house was owned by Estee Lauder who left it to Aerin’s father Ronald […]
I’m finishing up my trip to Charleston today and this West Village apartment looks like it would fit right in down here. It belongs to designer Brian Sawyer of Sawyer Berson, who you may remember from the Kips Bay Decorator Show House this year. I love that the color blue is the thread that connects […]
The more I look at Twitter, the more I realize we all need pretty pictures now more than ever. I came across this beautiful London home of Lady Wakefield on the House & Garden UK site and it’s a breath of fresh air. I love how the light and airy main rooms are complemented by the […]
While the White House private quarters by Michael Smith in the December 2016 issue of Architectural Digest is getting all the press, it was the very chic Greenwich Village apartment of artist Jack Pierson that struck my fancy. In the article, Pierson said, “I decided that I wanted it to look like an apartment that […]
According to Instagram, Greece is one of the most popular places for travel this summer. After seeing this family compound that Isabel López-Quesada designed with architect Nikos Moustroufis designed on the island of Spetses, it’s easy to see why. The base of blue floor and white walls perfectly complements the color of the water and buildings of […]
