One of my favorite companies Francis Valentine is having a 25% off friends and family sale until tomorrow 10/15. I have featured Francis Valentine before.
Frances Valentine is a New York accessories brand founded by long-time friends and collaborators Kate & Andy Spade, and Elyce Arons. It is the design house that sustains Kate Valentine Spade’s unique way of seeing. A trove of her works, her inspiration, her talent, her vision. With its spirited vintage-modern designs, Frances Valentine will continue to make accessories for women around the world.
All their designs from shoes, to clothes to jewelry are classic Kate Spade style. It is one of my favorite brands. I have my eye on the leopard flats, the light blue shoes and the adorable square leopard bag!! Check out all their fall new arrivals!!!!!
I had a few readers ask me to showcase some houses near the Westport, Ct area. My Real Estate sponsor, Christine Oleynick sent me the listing for this gorgeous contemporary colonial on 2.2 acres in Weston on the Westport border, in fact, very close to downtown Westport. Contact Christine to see this home or for more information.
A friend of mine made this chili last week and it came out amazing. I asked her for the recipe and had to share it with you. I am going to make it for the long weekend. I think I will serve it with these chips but I am going to use mild chiles. You have to try this…trust me, you will LOVE it!!! Bon Appetit!!!

I love the designer Linda Richards. I have followed her lines for years. Her furs have such a fun contemporary look. From vibrant colors to the traditional black, browns and greys, this season she has included it all. Linda Richards is going to open her showroom for NS Lifestyle readers for one day only. If you are interested in a getting an invite, email me. Here is a sneak peek of what you can expect!!!!
Yesterday I went to check out the Port Chester Home Goods. This is still their transitional time but it should start getting really good in the next month when the Holiday stuff rolls in. I should call this the furniture issue of the Home Goods Re-Cap because they had some really great pieces.
