A new SoHo destination on Crosby Street pairs two beauty flagships with a fragrance gallery, a café, and a hidden garden — here's why the space feels so different, and what it says about how we shop for beauty now.
Every October, I open my wardrobe and see the same three colours. This year I stopped fighting it — and built the autumn palette around what I already loved. Here are the eight shades I'm reaching for, with the exact combinations that work.
New York Fashion Week is almost here. I'm spending September 12–15 toasting a 20th anniversary, hosting a Kibonen brunch for 100 women, and walking the red carpet at Emerge NYFW. Here's everything, with links.
Standing in front of my closet this morning, I asked myself what fall 2026 actually wants from my wardrobe. The runways answered with a palette I can build on — and you don't need a single new coat. Here's how to wear each shade with what you already own.

There are books worth finishing, a faux leather jacket under $200, and a lakeside fire pit I didn't want to leave.
