THE NEW COUNTRY

Is this not the most beautiful meadow you’ve ever seen? England, you’re so dreamy. Here we are at Soho Farm House… one of the most remote and secluded properties of all of Soho House out in Great Tew, Oxfordshire… about 2 hours from the city of London. Think classic barns-turned-restaurants. Romantic little cabins in the open field. A steamy indoor/outdoor pool to decompress in. Boat rides through the fog. And then one gorgeous cottage perched perfectly beside this very meadow. Now this is how a home away from home should look like…a private place to unplug and get away from it all…no social media allow #truth. As for getting dressed for a weekend in the country, simply layer and match your surroundings. Shirts under dresses. Shirts under vests. Socks and sandals. M Missoni does a killer job once again for our winter 2017 photoshoot. At this point in time, I was traveling every single week, and time was flying by like the speed of light. It’s nice to step back this holiday season, and finally get to see all the beauty we created shooting on location along with the stories and memories. We’d slip on our clogs to fetch our freshly made milk and cookies, plucked flowers in our oversize wool totes, and danced in what felt like the middle of nowhere. For now, stay warm and keep on dreaming lovebugs.

ON THE FARM | M MISSONI

This is how I define a perfect weekend. The dreamy English countryside. Nubby fair isle sweaters. Horseback riding. Cow printed wellies. Hot toddies. Picking up fresh flowers on my bike. This is by far the chicest part of Oxfordshire, England and I’m so happy I got to spend it with M Missoni, shooting their Winter ’17 collection, pieces that will work well into 2018 and beyond. A collection that is meant to be layered with a serious mix of prints in the warmest of colors that blended seamlessly with our surroundings of open meadows and gardens. I can always spot an M Missoni print from a mile away, they’re iconic and timeless. I didn’t pack much else. As a NYC girl, I spent as much time during my day breathing in the clean country air as nights were spent in with a glass of wine and really, long hot bath in our beautiful classically English cottage. Now that is weekend perfection. Simple.

OUR COTTAGE IN THE ENGLISH COUNTRYSIDE | M MISSONI

Isn’t this the most beautiful English cottage? I have so, so much to be thankful for this year. I’m so thankful for being able to travel the world, to constantly create and imagine, to meet amazing people, and be able to bring my family and friends along with me on this wonderful journey, every single day. The M Missoni stories I shot in England with Dylana are ones to be framed and remembered. I get a tingling feeling just looking back at them. It has always been a dream of mine to shoot in the foggy English countryside. For years, I have admired the grey skies, fair isle sweaters, and chicken coups that graced the glossy pages of British Vogue. That feeling of being far away, in the middle of nowhere, wrapped in wool is mesmerizing and intriguing. It’s a photographer’s dream. M Missoni made that dream of mine a reality during our Winter ’17 shoot at Soho Farm House in Oxfordshire, England. This is just a sneak peek into our shoot. I’ll rolling around in our grassy front yard for now.

FOLLOWING THE SUN | M MISSONI

Isn’t there just something so beautiful about this color palette? So peachy. Orange has never looked so good thanks to my friends at M Missoni. They do beach luxury and striking color palettes unlike anyone else. Bright pink, lemon yellow, and mandarin orange. And yes, ponchos really are back.
