JANICE PARKER LANDSCAPE DESIGN

Confession: I have a new obsession. In addition to perusing the portfolios of interior designers, I’ve realized I love looking at the work of landscape architects. In case you couldn’t tell from my exteriors board, I love looking at homes, gardens, pools, you name it — and this portfolio in particular is keeping me extra […]

NEW ARRIVALS!

One of the best parts of owning an online boutique is the feeling that comes with rolling out new arrivals every few weeks. I love the challenge of sourcing new products, the fun of getting to collaborate with new designers, and the excitement I get from all of you when (hopefully!) you like the products […]

A DAY AT THE BEACH

That’s wishful thinking, of course. It’s supposed to hit 97° in Connecticut today (ick!) and naturally I wish I could transport to my favorite beach on Nantucket and set up shop beneath an umbrella for the day. In the mean time, my countdown to spending the Fourth of July on the island is alive and […]

SWEATER + SHORTS

Kenneth Jay Lane earrings // Vince striped sweater // Loren Hope tassel necklace Clare Vivier iPad case // J.Crew shorts // K. Slademade limited edition clutch Loren Hope cocktail ring // Tuckernuck pointed toe espadrilles Inspired by this pin, I decided to create a look around pairing sweaters and shorts. It might seem counterintuitive but […]

DESK DU JOUR

It’s been much too long since I’ve shared one of my favorite workspaces! This one comes from Catherine Sheppard’s home tour on Glitter Guide today and I must say I’m enamored with the inspiration board hanging over her desk. Catherine says she sometimes removes everything and starts from scratch. How fun is that? I can’t think of […]

DO YOU WEAR LIPSTICK?

I have a question about lipstick. Bloggers and celebrities wear it daily and I think the well-placed pop of pink or red can do wonders. But when I wear it myself, I feel… I don’t know, a little over the top? Number 86 on my 101 in 1001 list was to find the right shade […]

ANNABEL TOLLMAN’S APARTMENT

One of the more recent additions to my Google Reader is Tales of Endearment, a blog by Natalie Joos featuring photos of her friends and their fabulous homes and wardrobes. This sneak peek into fashion stylist Annabel Tollman’s West Village apartment was certainly brimming with inspiration… Things I loved: her book collection, the peonies, the […]

WORKOUT CHIC

Let me first admit that I do not like to exercise. I was a competitive gymnast through high school and never had any use for a real gym. Of course now I’m kicking myself that I didn’t pay more attention in gym class because I’m desperate to find a workout regime that sticks. Does it […]

PINK + TAN

Hot pink, tan leather, and a pop of pretty blue… This is what I’d like to be wearing this weekend! Tibi silk tank // Devon Baer Designs tassel necklace // Rebecca Minkoff iPad case Rag & Bone white jeans // Madewell leather satchel // Loren Hope link bangle // Madewell wedges What’s one thing you’re looking […]

LAUREN GOODMAN’S APARTMENT

Former Domino fashion director Lauren Goodman recently opened the doors of her San Francisco home to Refinery 29 and it was everything I could do not to pin every last one of these spaces on the spot… Of course I’m most coveting the English roll arm sofa in her living room. Isn’t it such a beautiful […]

WHITE WALLS + WINDOWS

The interior of this San Francisco home is a little more contemporary than my usual taste but I couldn’t help falling in love with the big windows and little architectural details… The dining room looking out on an ivy-covered wall? Seriously to die for. What do you think — could you live here? *all images […]

AROUND THE HOUSE

Three new coffee table books purchased on Joss & Main (find them here, here, and here). Entertaining essentials: cute matches and monogrammed salt and pepper shakers. Lilly Pulitzer playing cards purchased on Rue La La. Carried this clutch all over Baltimore, discovered a new favorite nail polish, and started reading this book which I find to be […]
