I think a little sparkle can work both day and night. This is a special Swarovski story featuring two opposites, the classic white tennis collection and the fun, bright, and bold multi-colored crystals. It’s summer, so anything really goes. Layer it on and have a little more fun!

// Vuori set //

It’s amazing working with Vuori. It’s a dream partnership. Every set and every color just feels so incredible on. It molds to my body and gives me the confidence to get up early and get going. This beautiful pink dragonfruit set is part of the new collection. New collections are dropping each month so there’s always something to look forward to. Dragonfruit is a shade that feels like an instant mood booster, making every bike ride feel like total bliss. Biking the piers has made me stronger both physically and mentally. I love the feeling of the wind through my hair. I stay out as the sun sets over Brooklyn Bridge Park. It’s my place of calm. I’ve biked these piers for years and each time it feels brand new. Each ride grounding me and reminding me why I choose NYC as home. It’s amazing when you can find a place of peace and calm amongst the city chaos. That’s what the outdoors does for me and I’m so grateful for it.

Emerald green is one of my favorite colors. It is the perfect shade to transition from summer into fall and it’s definitely taken over my wardrobe. I like to think it’s one of my lucky colors. Colors really do hold energy. I am still soaking up the last bits of summer here in the city. I love how the warm sun hits my skin every evening right here by my bed. I love the dewy, glistening skin the heat brings me. I love making every single day feel like I’m on holiday. I’m definitely an endless summer kind of girl.

Rock n’ roll has officially landed in Southampton. I wore a silk leopard set by the amazing Nili Lotan for the Southampton store opening party. It was a matching lace sister moment! To celebrate Nili Lotan in Southampton, the designer threw a party and screening of the 90’s film, Rolling Stones at the Max, at the Southampton Playhouse! It was the oldies throwback I needed. I’ve been listening to The Stones on repeat all over again and I now have this new appreciation for classic rock n’ roll and my dad’s favorite band. The dance moves! The style!  The energy! Rock n’ roll is simply timeless. This is an outfit to wear on repeat, reminding me of this perfect night.

I love being a Mulberry England girl. Each design so timeless and with a leather so strong and durable, it can get you through just about anything. My latest obsession? The Bayswater in a beautiful coral orange. So soft, it molds to my body. I’m so excited to partner with Mulberry on a style that remains an icon in the collection. This is a bold, happy color that actually works so well with just about any summer look.  You know I love my big bags and the Bayswater is what I can fly with, take a roadtrip in, or simply walk Elizabeth Street Garden in. I’m styling mine with white denim and scarves worn as tops, and just about anything that’s linen. Top it all off with Mulberry’s wide brim hat to stay really on brand.

I just got back from the most relaxing little getaway in Amagansett at the absolutely gorgeous The Reform Club to celebrate the Lulu & Georgia summer collection! We had a beautiful cottage all to ourselves and the entire sunny lawn to play in. I love a classic All-American stripe and the way Lulu & Georgia incorporated it into their new outdoor furniture collection. Every little detail was impeccable and so thoughtfully curated. It’s exactly how I envision a weekend in the Hamptons. I could spend hours on the grass in the rose garden, soaking in the sun with a good book, dressed in easy summer looks. I won’t stop wearing this Lorna Murray hat and Araks swimsuit. I’ve got my Hamptons bag all set: just pack a bikini, a crisp white shirt, and breathable nautical stripes for a hot summer out east. Oh, and a ton of sunscreen.

I have been shooting for Express for years now and I’m always amazed by each collection. They keep getting better and better. Every piece is a working girl essential. Shooting for the Express Editor Collection was a perfect fit. I had to say yes! What I love how about this collection is the stretchy, form fitting sets that are both elegant and classic. Great for mixing and matching. Comfortable enough to handle NYC. Anything really is possible in the city! You never know who you will meet or where you will go. That’s the beauty of city life. The collection features pieces like a Carolyn Bessette Kennedy black midi skirt set and everything 90’s minimalism. Finish it all off with a pair of black oval sunglasses and you’re good to go.

We’re in the transitional period where we’re trading in our cashmere coats for denim shorts and crochet. This was one of my favorite winter to spring looks. Menswear as outwear, and the biggest bag ever by friends in Sweden, ATP Atelier. I’ll still be wearing this piece to the airport all summer long.

So grateful for a week of family time back home where it all began for me, California. Tucked away in San Diego is the Inn at Rancho Santa Fe. We were surrounded by lush gardens, blue skies, and the scent of the ocean. It’s California elegance with so much history and beauty and architecture. Being present feels so easy here. The days stretch out longer and I could really take a beat to slow down. I spent most of our time reading by the pool or listening to live music at Lilian’s. This hotel has a special place in my heart.
