Grammy Grace...

My Grandmother Grace is perhaps the most fashionable person I know. She is always donning the latest "it" bag, Ferragamo shoes and her Burberry plaid pants. And she is also the most generous person I know and always sending me amazing items. She just sent me this beautiful coat from J.Crew:

Sleeping on a Cloud...

My bed resembles a cloud. Pillowtop mattress, down Northern Nights blanket, down comforter and 6 down pillows. That's right 6. No bed I have slept in yet has come close to being as comfortable as mine. I want to change up my duvet cover for fall/winter and fell in love with this one at the Ralph Lauren Outlet.

Beach Read...

I love to read. Not sure why I didn't become a book editor so I could read for a living. My most recent read while at the beach was "Following Ezra". I was drawn to the book because it is about a boy with Autism. My sister has DownSyndrome and I grew up volunteering at a camp for children with special needs (CP, Autism, DownSyndrome, etc.). The memoir is quite insightful and helped me really grasp what life is like for an autisic child and how difficult it is for them to communicate to surrounding friends and family. Ezra, is an extremely intelligent and lovable young boy. Highly recommend.

Bangle...

I am not a big jewelry person. I always wear the same diamond stud earrings, Judith Ripka rock, and thin baby blue Hermes bangle. Occasionally I mix things up with a necklace and when I do it is usually pearl. But I love these...

I recently purchased this necklace from Loft that I have been pairing with everything (originally picked out to go with a cranberry wrap dress)...
