While quarantine has been hard for everyone, there are some bright spots. Photographer François Halard is holed up at his house in Arles and posts a photo of a room or a vignette every day. He’s on day 27 now and I look forward to each and every one of his images. His house is […]
I was in Connecticut and didn’t get to post one of my semi-regular Bon Weekend posts on Friday. There are a few new shows coming up this week of which I wanted to make you aware so I decided a New & Notable post was in order. As you can see from my Instagram post […]
I remember attending a party for Tory Burch‘s first collection at Bergdorf Goodman in 2004 and it’s amazing to see how far she’s come with her fashions and her life. Her beautiful home on Antigua is featured in the new September 2018 issue of Vogue which is worth picking up for it alone. The property on […]
Every time I visit Paris, I tell myself that this is the trip that I’m going to take the train to Belgium but I’ve still yet to make the trip. If there was a chance of visiting Dries Van Noten‘s gorgeous home in Lier, I’m sure I find a way to motivate myself. The Neoclassical house he shares with […]
I’m off on the train to Venice today. Until I have time to write a post, I suggest you check out this very chic apartment in Paris designed by Studio Ko. It was featured in T magazine this weekend. I love that you can read it online like the real magazine if you happen to […]
I’ve never been to Corsica but the house that Olivier Marty and Karl Fournier of Studio KO designed makes me immediately want to immediately book a trip. That and the fact that it’s cold and grey in New York today. The duo restored the abandoned home and created a perfect holiday house. I especially love the lack of […]
Every time I think that T magazine can’t possibly out do themselves, they manage to surprise me. Featured in the Design Issue that will be included in The New York Times this Sunday, September 28th is the New York apartment of designer Stephen Sills. While it is well known and has been published before, it is my […]
Also out this weekend is the Men’s Style issue of T Magazine. I already picked up a copy and let out an audible gasp when I saw the photos of the Connecticut home of Sir John Richardson inside. The London-born Richardson started his career in the art world by opening the New York office of Christie’s […]
I really hope W magazine appreciates that I spent 11 euros on their August issue in Colette yesterday. While reading online is ok, nothing beats reading a real magazine at night before bed. It was actually worth the money because I got to see gorgeous photos by Francois Halard of Alessandra Facchinetti’s Milan apartment. Facchinetti […]
Someone once asked me if there was a moment that I knew I had made it as a blogger. I always feel like I’m still trying to make it but one moment that stood out as an early milestone was when 1stdibs profiled me for their site. To have their stamp of approval was an […]
If you’ve been checking out Instagram this week, you’ll notice that everyone is either relaxing on the beach or skiing on the slopes. Talk about “fear of missing out.” And because everyone is off enjoying themselves somewhere, it’s clear that many less of you are reading blogs. Due to this fact, I’ve decided to save […]
I mentioned the house that Karl Lagerfeld called “the chicest house in America” in yesterday’s post and now the pics are up on Town & Country. I highly recommend running out to buy the October issue to read the whole story. These photos makes me even more excited for Stephen Sills’ new book Stephen Sills: […]
I’m either going to have to build more shelves or move in order to accommodate all the new books coming out this fall. Lots of fabulous design books are about to be published from some your favorite decorators, as well as books by a few first time authors whose names you will definitely recognize. I’ll […]
Taking time off is great until you come back over scheduled and over frazzled. Hence the lack of post yesterday. I hope to be back on track later tonight but until then I leave you with a little something chic, the home of Bruno Frisoni and Hervé Van der Straeten in Tangier, Morocco from Vogue. Bruno Frisoni […]
I had an amazing time in Paris but it was much too short so I am already planning another trip this fall. I can’t wait to spend more time exploring new parts of my favorite city. The highlight of this trip was finding the twice a year brocante around the rue de Bretagna in the […]
My appointment at the hair salon yesterday gave me time to read the new May issue of Vogue. It features the Paris apartment of fashion designer and former model L’Wren Scott. For those of you who don’t know, she has also been dating Sir Mick Jagger for the last ten years. That’s actually important information […]
