I know a lot of you love my outfit posts so I’m going to try to start posting more.  The only problem is that I subscribe to the “quality not quantity” rule of thumb when it comes to shopping for clothes for I end up wearing the same things a lot. My wardrobe is made […]

New York Fashion Week kicked off last night with a fete at Gracie Mansion and I noticed a theme among a few of the designers.  Jenna Lyons of J.Crew, Ralph Lauren, and Carolina Herrera all wore grey and white.  A great way to transition your white pieces for after Labor Day. I’ll be attending all […]

I’ve been home for a week now and feels really good to be back.  I love that I can shop on Sundays and get anything I want delivered at any time.  It’s also been great to see my friends and my favorite people in the neighborhood. Oh, and yes I got an amazing manicure and pedicure […]

I am going to miss so many things about Paris but working on a laptop is not one of them.  It feels like it’s time to get back to being productive on a real computer at a real desk. Of course, if I had a real office like Jenna Lyons, I might be even more […]

I’m currently getting ready for another photo shoot in my apartment so I’m leaving you with a few bits and bobs from Instagram.  Bon weekend! I headed downtown on Wednesday when it was finally warm in the city. I love the facade on Vesuvio Bakery and since the guy didn’t seem to be moving, I […]

Long time readers will remember my aversion to pink.  Well, this awful winter has left even me longing for the cheerful affect of a little color. I actually fell in love with a pink jacket from J.Crew when I saw it at their presentation last year.  It turned out to be a very expensive Collection […]

I thought I had a lot of books but my collection doesn’t hold a candle to the over 400 vintage and new books owned by Tom Mora, the head of women’s design at J.Crew. You can see some of his favorites on the J.Crew tumblr page here. I hope we get to see the rest […]

I have a love/hate relationship with navy blue. I don’t buy it because I think I won’t wear it since it clashes with black.  But I don’t wear black that often so that’s a silly reason especially since you can mix navy and black as you can see here.  Cartier Love Bracelets Chloe Navy and […]

New York woke up to six inches of snow blanketing the city today.  Seems like a perfect day to stay in bed and watch movies and read. If you didn’t receive new pajamas for Christmas, I suggest some of these chic options. Some of them are even nice enough to wear on the street should […]

I have a bad habit of falling in love with very expensive sandals. Since you only get to wear them a few months of the year, I can’t justify paying full price.  Lucky for me, a pair of Chloe Sandals I was admiring just went on sale at Barneys. It’s a great time to take advantage […]

When I picked up the November 2013 Style Guide from J.Crew, I thought something looked familiar.  On closer inspection, I realized that it was photographed around the home of Amanda Brooks.  Not only that, her husband, the artist Christopher Brooks and her daughter Coco were among the models, in addition to their horses and dog […]

Harper’s Bazaar Executive Editor Laura Brown tweeted yesterday, “Summer, I moved on emotionally weeks ago.” I couldn’t agree more.  I’m ready for crisp, cool weather, cashmere sweaters, and changing leaves. Let’s be clear, I am not ready for winter.  Even though my grey mink coat makes it slightly more bearable, it is not fun.  But […]

I haven’t done an outfit post in a while so what better way to get back in the game than a “wear now wear later” post featuring my favorite summer staple, white jeans.  As you’ve seen on the blog before, they can be worn all year if you style them right.   White Jeans for […]

I‘ve already been shopping for autumn but I still can’t wait to see what’s new from J.Crew for September. If you don’t feel prepared for fall, do I have some amazing offers for you! First, if you attend the J.Crew Style Sessions event this Thursday, August 22nd at the Prince Street store from 6:00-8:00pm, you […]

Don’t forget you have one week left to enter the J.Crew My Shoe Story contest.  It ends on Monday, April 29, 2013 so what are you waiting for?! Shoes transport you: from the cobblestone streets of SoHo to the cafes and canals of Venice, comfortable, chic, shoes allow us to explore fashion and culture. With this […]

After you have have your spring skirt situation taken care of, it’s a good time to think about shoes. Actually, I’m always thinking about shoes.  Shoes transport you: from the cobblestone streets of SoHo to the cafes and canals of Venice, comfortable, chic, shoes allow us to explore fashion and culture. With this in mind, […]

Since I’ve been posting a lot of feminine fashion recently, I thought I should take a little time out for the boys. As a follow up to my post about the fall 2013 J.Crew fashion presentation, I thought it might be interesting to look at how the menswear director for J.Crew, Frank Muytjens lives at […]
