I look forward to seeing the fashion presentation from Adam Lippes each season since he shows at home with beautiful flower arrangements from Putnam and Putnam. There is nothing I love more than the intersection of fashion and interiors his Fall/Winter 2019 collection was inspired by rich rooms of the interior design firm Studio Peregalli. […]

Film Frenzy

01 . 10 . 16

Awards Season starts in full force tonight with the Golden Globes. I’ve seen a few of the films and performances nominated which makes me more excited to see who wins. I saw Brooklyn yesterday with Saoirse Ronan and absolutely loved the sweet coming of age immigrant story set in Brooklyn and Ireland. Joy is a bit […]

Ultimate Dream Kitchen

12 . 23 . 15

My kitchen obsession continues but I think I may have found the ultimate dream kitchen. The high-glosss black and brass accented Brooklyn brownstone kitchen just featured in Lonny was designed by David Nastasi and Kate Vail for a client.  Since space is at a premium in New York, I love that they took the cabinets all the […]

04 . 29 . 12

After our recent visit to the Brooklyn Museum, Tommy Smythe and I decided to do a little shopping.  One of the first places we stopped was DARR on Atlantic Avenue.  I love visiting places where you never know what you might find and DARR is filled with vintage treasures and new pieces that look old. […]

When Canadian interior designer Tommy Smythe was last in town, he invited me along to the Brooklyn Museum to see the Keith Haring: 1978–1982 exhibit.  It was a bit of the blind leading the blind getting there but luckily we made it. I was familiar with Keith Haring’s work but this show introduced me to so many […]

I don’t mind when different magazine’s publish the same home if they reshoot it and use different photos. I love seeing the changes a homeowner may have made and also with different styling. It’s fun to see rooms or areas that one magazine left out but another decided to shoot. So that’s why I was […]
