visiting…

one of the first brick and mortar

(well plywood and newspaper — the New York Times!)

Aesop

shops in the states.

Enjoying the handiwork of Jeremy Barbour [for Tacklebox] the gentleman who gave us the architecture for my ultimate fantasy business, the lovely Saipua,

and slathering myself with the best and least affordable hand lotion on the planet.

Fun to finally have a couple of Aesops in NYC!

One more here.

knowing…

you can’t stay mad at

Ian Schrager

for long.

Public

is really pretty great! All the signatures, but cleaned way up.

Looking forward to seeing the NYC version

[it was only a matter of time that Hendrik Kerstens showed up in a Schrager hotel -- so meant to be!]

looking…

forward to a  Greenpoint Summer with a

pool!

McCarren Park Pool

is

 ’expected to complete construction in spring 2012′

very exciting — and a far cry from the good old days

learning…

that my new obsession

[other than the 3 month old]

is a Walentas project

designed by

Morris Adjmi

these beautiful renderings are the handiwork of

the talented

David Huang

so VERY excited about this building. It stands out as a beacon of good taste in the midst of the onslaught of horrifying new construction.

making…

the journey west

once again

this time for my sister’s beautiful wedding

Had the pleasure of creating the botanicals for the occasion.

A complete joy!

[Been itching to put a chubby coral rose next to a hot pink dahlia since they got engaged!]

checking…

out some of the inspiration for the new AvroKO child on the increasingly fancy pants Bowery

Saxon + Parole

(sayonara Double Crown)

always…

a pleasure

to

sample a new

Kundig

project.

This time the magic of the PNW is right in our own East Village.

Thanks G
