Keeping coming back to look at this DVF S/S 2012 Mini Keller Basketweave Shoulder Bag on pre-order at Moda Operandi. $345, too. Not bad — except it’s too small for an iPad.

Droll little napkins from French Laundry on sale at One Kings Lane ($49 for a set of six). Thought about buying these to my mother until I imagined her saying, “So Lauren gave me napkins for Christmas…”

Kate Spade Spring 2012

Kate Spade’s Spring 2012 presentation was held Tuesday afternoon. The presentation space (on 26th Street, just beneath their offices) was beautifully laid out: Not row after row of benches, like most shows, but a mix of fabric-covered ottomans and plastic chairs in a half-circle around the stage. It felt intimate. After the lights dimmed and guests took their seats, creative director...

a short interview with burberry's christopher...

Inspiration Board: Tiffany Blue

Got the keys to my new apartment this weekend and after a good scrub I’m ready to give it a coat of paint.
