We are in the process of moving, so I don’t know if I will be able to post until this weekend, but I wanted to mention one of my new favorite shows. The Fashionista Diaries comes on the Soap Network on Wednesday nights, but this Monday, on Labor Day, there will be a marathon. [...]

Today is one of the most stressful of my life. We have packed boxes everywhere and there is still more to pack! The last few weeks, I have been trying to see as much of New York City as possible and I wanted to share my favorite place. The Cloisters is a [...]

Since it is my last few days in the city, I had to visit my favorite store, ABC Carpet & Home, yesterday evening. I first found the store last summer when I interned near their store on Broadway and 19th Street. Every item, even if it doesn’t work with my tastes, is unusual [...]

“Becoming Jane” is a movie (and book) that tells the love story of writer Jane Austen and lawyer Tom Lefroy, before Jane made a professional career of writing. The movie is set in 1795, when Jane was 20 years old. While watching the movie, you can see how the events in her life [...]

TV shows and movies are a great place to get inspiration for my clothing and decorating tastes. I love it when TV shows have good stylists, and with AMC’s original series “Mad Men”, the clothing and prop stylists deliver a show where every single detail is true to the time and setting. All [...]

Our new place is going to have a lot of windows compared to the two windows we currently have, so I was so excited to see Delia Shades on New York Magazine’s website. The mesh shades roll down and offer unique patterns that make the shades seem more like architectural pieces than traditional window [...]

I have yet to figure out all the techniques of blogging, but I have noticed several people have found my blog by searching for information on the Philippe Starck Louis Ghost chairs. One in particular was searching for dining tables to go with the chairs, and since I just visited the Kartell store on [...]

We are moving in just over a week! I’ve been having mixed emotions about it, so last night, my boyfriend and I had a “date night”. I finally got to dine at Waverly Inn (it is right around the corner from us, but we never made reservations) and enjoyed the chicken pot [...]
