When I think of travel, two perfect words come to mind: rest and relaxation. It’s my time to turn off the technology, open my favorite book and put my tired feet up (preferably on the beach). This isn’t the case for Stirling Kelso…traveling is her job, albeit one she loves, so naturally her trips look […]
How To Shop Smart for Antiques
Downton I adore you, but my first love on PBS will always be Antiques Roadshow.

How to Write a Thank-You Note
I have always been a huge believer in the power of the written word, and teaching Phoebe the importance of expressing gratitude through the thank-you note is something I will start from an early age. We may live in the digital age, but there is still nothing like the feeling you get upon receiving a […]

Three Simple Summer Recipes
When it comes to eating al fresco during the dog days of summer, you have to be careful — the dishes have to be refreshing enough to not weigh you down, served cold or at room temperature to offset the blazing heat, and casual enough to match the laid-back, barefoot vibe. So when we heard […]

How to Wear Red, White & Blue
One of my favorite aspects of fashion is watching how American style changes drastically through the years… and then simply cycles back and repeats.
