I graduated from Georgetown with a Sociology & Psychology degree, and thinking that I wanted to work for the FBI, wrote my thesis on women in law enforcement. Had I known the true path of my career, I would have begun tracking the psycho-social factors contributing to great style. Although I started my true studies… [Cont.]

Mother’s Day weekend is extra special for Boulder- it’s the annual Christy Lea Payne trunk show at Chelsea. If, by some miracle, you’re unfamiliar with Denver’s darling, she’s part of a small group of go-to designers for myself, clients, and friends, and she’s bringing her extensive collection to Chelsea today through the weekend. Please stop… [Cont.]

As our world moves increasingly online where everything is available immediately , speaking to actual human beings (and having to ‘hold’ or be redirected to customer service in India) has become outdated. Until recently, I fully supported our modern model of see-click-buy, but here’s what happened- While designing the office space of JP Egbert &… [Cont.]

I recently caught up with the new merchandise for one of my all-time favorite shoe lines, Loeffler Randall. Hoping to select one or two pairs to showcase, I couldn’t make up my mind among such a diverse and fabulous collection.

There are few occasions where one can sport a big silly hat with impunity. Across the pond, creative headwear is part of British party culture; Americans really have only one day and that day is coming up. Newly launched Boulder Lifestyle Magazine is hosting the Kentucky Derby party this year at Goldbranch Estates in Niwot, supporting… [Cont.]

Over the last 3 years of working with 50+ clients, I’ve come to see and define the elements that comprise great style: creativity, budget, discipline & desire. Among these, only one separates a good wardrobe from a spectacular one, and it’s not what you’re expecting. Disciplined buying/conscious styling is the most important factor for creating… [Cont.]

It’s 25degrees in Boulder today after receiving a foot of snow yesterday, but we’re still looking forward! If you haven’t yet pondered your sandal situation for the upcoming season, allow me to make a recommendation. Gladiators became trendy many years ago and, following in the path of ballet flats/ loafers/skinny jeans/leggings (there are too many… [Cont.]

Some furniture and decor pieces, by virtue of their diversity, are often the hardest to buy. Lamps and side tables exist in every size, shape, and color, and I find pulling the trigger on these pieces exceptionally challenging. Therefore, endorsing this Restoration Hardware side table will hopefully save you hours of agonizing.
