I saw a few influencers pull out summer sun dresses, bare summer sandals, and raffia basket bags last week when the weather warmed up. I am have been firmly taught that you only wear clothes appropriate to the current month and season no matter what the temperature. That means no summer clothes in March. It’s […]

I think a lot of people forget that it can stay chilly in many places through the month of May, sometimes even June. But there are often huge fluctuations in temperature so you need to be prepared for anything. I saw snow on the weather forecast for yesterday morning and it might be close to […]

I already posted my What I Bought for Fall post but since then I’ve added a few more pieces. They are some items I posted in my Instagram Stories but since many people won’t go looking for them in my saved Shopping highlights on my bio page, I thought I should post them here as […]

As you know, I’m beyond excited for fall but I know that most fashions are too heavy to be worn right away. So I’m partnered with MATCHES to show you how to style a leather skirt from September to November so you can take it from crisp to cold weather. The best part is that […]

This is always a quiet time for shopping as I anxiously await fall fashions to arrive in stores and online. The things I’m eyeing, buying, and trying right now need to be able to transition to September and October when it can still be quite hot. It’s now that I start choosing pieces that are […]

If yesterday’s airport travel outfit doesn’t work for you, I have a few other options for you today. I’m currently trying to get my ducks in a row for my next trip the Hamptons and my July trip to London so these are some of the things I’ve been eyeing, buying, and trying for May […]

I bought quite a few things for my April trip to Paris when the forecast was showing warmer weather but I ended up not packing any of them when it became clear that it would be rather chilly. I had the cool grey weather this year that I was expecting last year but it was […]

I started this month’s New and Noteworthy post early in the week but kept coming across new things that I wanted to add to the list. For a month with only 28 days, February to chock full of new openings and releases that you will definitely want to check out. I always joke that I […]

Even though the month is more than half over, there is still a lot to look forward to this December. Here are some things to see, do, and most importantly watch if you are stuck at home due to the weather. If you’re in New York over the holidays, make time to visit the Bard […]

I’ve always had a soft spot for Talbots. I still remember a grey wool turtleneck dress I wore for years until it finally had to be retired. Talbots to me has always been a place where I could find pieces to wear to work and on the weekends. I’ve picked out an outfit you can […]

I found so many great gift options I couldn’t fit them all in my first gift guide so I decided to post my second gift guide this week too. As we know, there could be shipping delays and supply chain issues, it’s best to shop early for everyone on your list. Do you have a […]

I know some people will think this holiday gift guide is too early and others will be excited because they can start shopping now. I’m posting earlier than usual because retailers are worried about shipping delays and since most people shop online each year. I like to mix up my gift guides for items for […]

Sorry for the lack of posts this past week. Things are incredibly busy in the city again. I’ve been attending films at the New York Film Festival and seeing friends. I’ve also been doing the Prolon fast mimicking diet this week which has made me a little tired. I have one more film tomorrow and […]

Are you sick of snow yet? I know I am. I don’t remember the last time it snowed so much in New York. I guess it is one good way of getting most people to stay home in a global pandemic though. One thing that’s helping me get through are flowering branches. Those are quince […]

I’ve had a few people ask for a post of what I bought myself recently and I finally had time to put it together. Some things were Christmas presents to myself and others were items I picked up and ordered in the last few months. While upstate visiting The Mayflower Inn, I bought this Houdini […]
