Harper’s Bazaar shot Tommy Hilfiger, his wife Dee and baby Sebastian at the family’s newly re-furbished duplex at The Plaza. They purchased it in 2008, and tried to sell it last year – for a mere $50 million – but now seem thrilled with the space, which the designer describes as”old-world atmosphere complementing the old-world [...]

Montage: Afghans
Designers elevated granny chic on spring and fall runways with afghans fashioned as um, fashion. Not sure anyone would actually wear a crochet square getup (other than Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, who’ve been spotted with granny square scarves), but the look is taking hold in decors for the under 60 set.

Designer Spotlight: Seema Krish
Inspiration board. Seema’s studio. It’s true, I blogged about Seema Krish last summer after interviewing her for “Designing Women” in Stuff Magazine. But although we had a long phone conversation, we had never met. She invited me to The Buttery for tea last week, and after devouring a carrot cupcake with cream cheese frosting (all [...]

Fashion Break: Really Ugly Shoes
I’ve been clicking through a lot of shopping sites for work for NBC’s fashion blog “The Thread.” I just put together “Espadrille Thrill,” a photo gallery (complete with shopping credits, of course) of the 20 cutest espadrilles of the season.

Design Diary: A Japanese Garden
Almost two years ago I wrote about the fantastic Japanese garden that David Kimelberg created in the courtyard behind his Charlestown, Mass. townhouse – “A Backyard Fit For An Emperor” in the Boston Globe Magazine. Lawyer by day, gardener and Japanese culture enthusiast on the weekends, Kimelberg researched diligently to learn about the various elements [...]
