{Unabashedly bright colors at the J.Crew presentation}

This week has been such a blast. We had a couple of days of amazing weather, I took in some great shows, hung out with family and friends, and managed to make time for some special meals (including Babbo). Things have finally started to wind down – my bags are packed up and I’m counting down the minutes until my first book signing party tonight (details here). Have a wonderful weekend!

    Oh no I didn’t know you were having a book signing. That wall paper is lovely. And yes that new line by J crew is unabashedly bright! Wow! The color trend continues!

    That Soho wall paper is too cute. I wish more hotels had quirky touches like that. I would live in different hotels for the rest of my life if I could.
    Which neighbor hood was the second last picture taken? A beautiful NY street as always.

    I love the photo you got of J.Crew’s collection! The hair and makeup is great too, so pretty and polished and a bit sporty all at once, and the image in general is just something that you could practically have framed…well done!

  • Leanne

    Love your website and your book. Congrats! The book was the perfect companion on a dreary afternoon.

    The JCrew collection viewing must have been amazing. They are one of my favorite brands and being able to be there in person would be killer.
