Autumnal Accents

The perfect setting for a cozy Thanksgiving. Ideally, in a West Village townhome, but I'd take a sprawling Colonial in the 'burbs if I had to

In A Former Life

This is what Carine Roitfeld looked like as a blossoming fashionista. Who knew the future of fashion could look so wholesome

Modern Shapes

These cinched waists are absolutely beautiful. . . so many interesting shapes and styles

Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

I hate to say it, but after walking past the amazing holidays windows of Macy's on 34th street this evening I listened to my all-time favorite Christmas album the whole way home. . .

The House Dress

I'm so jealous of the house dresses that used to be de rigueur among the entertaining-set back in the day. So chic and comfy. That collar is almost too elegant to stand

Party Hearty

Gorgeous, vintage-inspired photographs from Wendy Bevan. Very Out Of Africa, don't you think?

Flats Are Back!

Lauren Remington Platt, wearing flats just as I would. Thank goodness someone else is taking note of how chic they can be

Bright Surroundings

I love the super girly, pretty preppy studio Jessica from Front Porch Studio has created. I'm obsessed with other people's work spaces, and this one seems so happy and bright. Also, it made me remember how I need a ghost chair or two. . .

Lands End Upgrade

Like L.L.Bean, Lands End was looking to enhance their cool-factor a bit. You can see their new collection, Lands End Canvas, here - it's full of great basics and slightly fashion forward, mostly perfect essentials.

This is the shoe drawer of Meredith Homet.

Not familiar with a shoe drawer? I have one - though it definitely isn't stocked with Prada and Gucci like this one (well, and I don't have quite so many pairs). Walking to work - through the typically windy, damp city - is quite different than working in a creative place where everyone wears heels. Meet the shoe drawer! Wear my boots, get to work, slip on 4 1/2 inch electric blue suede heels

Happy Holidays!

Isn't this the best cover ever? O finally jumped on the multiple-cover bandwagon, so this is just the first of several - the contrast here is definitely the best though

Congrats to the O team!

Emerald Valentino

This is mentioned on Esquire's ultimate gift guide list and I must say I do agree

Doesn't she look stunning?

Love-ly Prints

One of my most amazing, most incredibly talented friends Allie just sent me these, and I must say she was so right - I lovelovelove them. Homemade, unique, and utterly romantic, Coulson Macleod makes some pretty great stuff.

I'd like to order one or three for my apartment

Amsterdam Life

Look at how adorable this bookstore in Amsterdam is! I can't get enough - on these chilly, damp days even NYC seems like it wouldn't hold a candle to these romantically lit, super cute boutiques in Europe

Flaunt It

Rachel Bilson looking particularly fashion-forward in this recent spread from Flaunt magazine. Kinda dirty, but in a good way I suppose
