The lifestyle in New York is so different than L.A. Though it’s known for its fast-paced environment, I also find that I savor things in a way that simply doesn’t happen back home. This past weekend when my fiancé was in town, we went for long walks in the cold, read in bed, and went out for insanely good Italian meals that lasted several hours. It’s a nice reminder to recognize the good things about being away from home so that you can incorporate them back into your routine long after you’ve left.

    Black and Tan was massive in Japan when I went back there in December! very jealous of their fashion forwardness! This is a beautifully styled outfit, combining just the right amount of black complimented with just enough tan. I absolutely love those Chanel shoes too, if they were a tiny amount more square toe, they’d be the dream shoe I’ve been trying to find for too long now!

    Back in the mid 1970s, I bought a London Fog trench coat. I’ve kept it all these years, and this Fall, because the coat was quite long, I decided to have it shortened by my local tailor. Now it LOOKS JUST LIKE THE ONE YOU’RE WEARING! So glad I hung onto it. Classy items are always worth hanging onto!
