Spring has sprung meaning one thing: it’s time for a new fresh fragrance like Acqua Essenziale by Salvatore Ferragamo. You might recall how much I love a good rich smokey scent, but the new equinox calls for many changes to my grooming routine (including a light-weight toner and moisturizer). Besides, smelling like an Old Boys clubroom doesn’t …

Yago Partal’s Zoo Portraits
It’s Friday – meaning life is good. But things could always be slightly better. The suggestion? Yago Partal’s Zoo Portraits. By now I’ve made my views known re: the whole let’s-play-dress-up-with-animals thing, I think? If not, well hello! I’m kind-of a big fan (remember William Wegman for Acne Studios and Takkoda’s Famous Faces?). And if further justification is really needed, …
Jean Richard 1681 Ronde
Simplicity is elegance. And if elegance is king then JEANRICHARD’s Ronde Central Second Gold undeniably holds court. (FYI elegance is in people. I mean did anyone else see Lee Radziwill’s T Magazine cover?) The pink-gold (!) casing visibly houses the Swiss watchmaker‘s signature self-winding JR1000 movement, featuring 27 jewels, a white lacquered dial, and a frequency of 28,800 …
Scouts Honour: A Guidebook
Whether we’re talking fashion, work or relationships, sometimes we can use a little guidance – and I found just the thing. One very chilly and brief stint at an obscure NYC flea-market left me admiring a copy 1965’s Boy Scout Handbook. So ok, while this guide is entirely geared towards the great outdoors (think the whole …
Breezy Living
A recent return to California has meant several things: 1.) better weather, 2.) delicious guacamole, and 3.) chill-dressing. So your probably thinking – what on earth is chill-dressing? Well, it’s not the same as dressing-down or being hyper-casual (which usually involves some type of cashmere sweat-suit) per se. For me it’s all about wide-cut slouchy pants and loose-fitted …
Famous Faces: The Canine Diaries
It’s Monday and you’ve found yourself staring at some dogs dressed as celebrities. See, Monday’s aren’t that bad – right? If anything these incredible images should transport you back to a time when you and your dog (I’m guessing unwillingly – although Giggy Vanderpump might disagree) played dress-up. Because let’s be real, we’ve all done …
Aesop Parsley Seed Anti-Oxidant Hydrator
There’s been a re-shuffle on my bathroom shelf, and Aesop’s Parsley Seed Anti-Oxidant Hydrator has emerged as king. While this may come as a surprise (especially considering my past declarations of moisturizer-loyalty), people (and their skin) change. And change is good. Besides, a new season is upon us, so really there isn’t a better time than the …
