Today’s Lust Because post is lust worthy not just for its unreachable (for me!) cost and cool factor but also because I lust after the ability to wear anything in the cream/white zone for longer than 5 minutes before I get it dirty! THE ROW Laina Fringed Tiered Hem Sweater – Neiman Marcus $3,250 THE ROW Soroc Knit Side Zip Pants – Neiman Marcus $690

Some days my outfit is merely the blank canvas for a piece of jewelry or a pair of shoes. It is not the sum of its parts – it is all about the one part. When I saw this necklace at Henri Bendel, I knew that this was a piece that demanded center stage. It is elegant. It is unique. It gives you the on-trend multiple necklace look without being overwhelming and blinding. And last but not least, it does […]

Now that the Labor Day weekend is officially over, the real work begins – how to handle the shoulder season. Friends are signing up for fall fun runs, slow cooker recipes are starting to sound more enticing, and the mailbox keeps delivering magazines chock full of fall fabrics – suede, tweed, leather, wool, cashmere – it is enough to make you forget that it is still 80 degrees and humid out. A fact, that becomes belatedly apparent when you, decked […]

I’ll admit the first time I heard about Reiss was in conjunction with the Duchess of Cambridge. I admired the line, not because the Duchess wore it, but rather because the lines are clean and tailored and the items well made. Now at 70% off, some of Reiss’s beautiful business appropriate separarates are even more attainable. Avanti Pip Red Flared Single Breasted Coat – Reiss $148 Hicks Black Seamed Pencil Skirt – Reiss $64 Estherlee Navy Straight Tailored Pants – […]

This weekend we went en famille to a friend’s house for a delightful and delicious brunch. Planning my brunch outfit was a bit of a tricky wicket. I wanted to look fashionable but I had to be practical – going to someone’s new house, who does not have kids means your own wee darling needs to be on their best behavior. Which means they won’t. So I had to be dressed for any situation – darting after a frolicking 4 year old, […]
