thom filicia’s super chic lake house
As much as I dream about living on the beach, I would seriously consider lakeside living if the house looked anything remotely like designer Thom Filicia’s chic lakefront beauty in the Finger Lakes! We’ve all seen his super chic, modern take on lakeside living before (he even has a book dedicated to the every last…
chic in santa monica + an amazing fabric line
I’m an East Coast girl, born and bred, and as obsessed as I am, and always will be, with cedar shakes and sea captain’s cottages, lately I’ve been crushing big time on chic, coastal California spaces and interior designer Jeffrey Alan Marks’ chic abode in Santa Monica Canyon is pretty much my idea of perfection. …
get the look: victoria hagan’s nantucket hideaway
I can’t believe it’s been a whole fourteen days since I last blogged!! The hubby has had leave the last two weeks and so we took advantage of each and every single minute and soaked up some serious family time. We were at the beach last week for some much-needed R+R and as sad as…
west village stunner
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I’m sure you have all seen and are quite familiar with the West Village townhome of Haven’s Kitchen cooking school owner Ali Cayne, which was originally featured in Lonny back in their holiday issue a couple of years ago, but if you haven’t seen the tour of…

get the look: new “old” home in wainscott
Nothing beats the charm of an older home; for as long as I can remember I have dreamed of buying an old fixer upper and transforming it into a quaint little cottage, complete with an ivy-covered entrance, Dutch doors, a limestone fireplace/mantle, skeleton keys and, of course, a white picket fence. Like most families, especially…
chic in cape cod
As much as I love pops of bright, bold color, for me nothing can compare to a soft, neutral space with muted colors and lots of texture. It’s not only my favorite way to decorate, but it also lends itself particularly well to the aesthetic I’ve tried to create in my own home. And if…
fresh cottage style
With the temps well below freezing, we’ve been holded up at home while baby girl gets over this nasty head cold, but I have to say, I’m not minding this unusually cold weather one bit! I know a lot of you are buried under mountains of snow and are totally over it, so I thought…
blue and white by jk kling
One of the things I miss most about snowy winters is how all the white outside makes the inside feel like a bright, white box! We got eight inches of snow last year when Lydia was six weeks old and the top layer froze completely, making the entire neighborhood look like a big skating rink. …
