Weekend Real Estate Stalking

While writing this blog, I always say, “you never know who you are going to meet”.  Yesterday, I was visiting my friend Toni at Water’s Edge, a small waterfront community here in Rye and as I was parking, I saw the most fashionable duo walking to the pool.  We got to talking and one of the ladies had the most amazing home right on the water.  She also had the most amazing designer accessories.  Her home was full of fashionable finds.  She was kind enough to let me snap a few photos for you.  You see, you really never know who you are going to meet!!  Bon Weekend!!

Fashionable Friend Friday

This week’s Fashionable Friend Friday is an instagram “friend” Marie Chantal Crown Princess of Greece.  MC, as she is called, is a international fashionista!  She wears the most amazing designers and puts everything together flawlessly.  An updated instagram post from her is a true delight.  She also has a blog.  You can follow it HERE.  I love all her looks but one of my favorites, is the last photo of her casual outfit with killer espadrilles.  I have included some espadrilles so you can dress like MC too!!!

Southampton Beach Style

This is the second summer that we spent some time in Southampton, NY.  My entire family loves it, the salt air really agrees with them and we end up having the best vacation together!!  I love the glamour of the east end.  Everywhere you look there is amazing style, on the beach, in town, in the fabulous restaurants.  I thought I would capture some of the glamour of beach living for you!

Book Club Monday

Since we are still reeling from our run in with the Beverly Hills Housewives, I thought I would highlight some of the ladies’ other achievements outside of the reality show.  Both Lisa Vanderpump and Kyle Richards have written books.  I have not read them yet but I am really leaning towards adding them to my list, especially Lisa’s entertaining book, since the holiday’s a just around the corner!!!  You can buy both books HERE and HERE
