30 Going On 13

There are many unanswered questions that come to mind from time to time. What is the universe expanding into? How is Jennifer Lopez aging backwards? And WHY do I have acne at 30?

The Beauty of Nudity / Sonia Sieff

I am so excited to introduce you to the incredible talent of Sonia Sieff and the beautiful work she’s done around femininity and nudity in one of my now favorite books, Les Francaises.

Plaid Patterns

It seems that checks, plaid, houndstooth – or any other synonym for the tartan trend – has made its way into the collective conscious of fashion week attendees. Just last week, I found myself in a camouflage of women all wearing some variation of it – myself included! And while the idea of dressing in packs might initially come across as discouraging – in fashion, it often feels more like camaraderie.

You know the drill. When a notable and delectable restaurant from Paris opens a space (if only temporarily) in NYC, you rush to make a reservation. Or you pray to all the things that someone invites you to join them...
