Happy Birthday, Madge! I remember as if it were yesterday the summer of 1983 when I begged my grandparents in Grand Rapids, Michigan to buy me a mound of black rubber bracelets. Like a Virgin was one of my first grown-up records (and no, I had no idea what a virgin was) and I consider Express Yourself a personal anthem. Besides being a major fashion force in my life, @madonna has also been a powerful example of acceptance and boldness. #madonna #shero #expressyourself

One of @mariobuattaaol.com30 ‘s great gifts is as a colorist. His teacher Stanley Barrows instructed him to look closely at the work of the impressionists and post-impressionists for inspiration. I remember having a new appreciation for Mario’s talents when he told me that he was able to reuse everything from this aubergine-lacquered room including the carpet when his clients moved (swipe) even with a radically different - apple green - ground for their new living room. #mariobuatta #englishcountryhousestyle #anglophile #newyorkliving #eeebooks @rizzolibooks
Happy Birthday, Mrs. Mellon! 🌳 Thank you for your example of thoughtful beauty. I have been meditating on why so many of us find deep inspiration in the aesthetic life she created for herself. For me, her dedication to unshowy yet highly cultivated simplicity is an antidote to today’s loud and lcd celebrity culture as well as the serious commitment and passion with which she followed her eye. 🌳#bunnymellon
I don’t remember all these special days existing before Insta, but this is one close to my heart #internationalcatday #teamcat #pyewacket

When you’ve read @davidnettosays ‘s piece on Joan Collins for @townandcountrymag and want more Joan, Sins mini series delivers BIG and is streamable on youtube. Made in 1986 at peak Joandom, it has everything - sequins galore courtesy of @Valentino , a theme song by Carly Simon, a gorgeous Marisa Berenson, a murdered Gene Kelly, AND - six degrees of Henri Samuel - several scenes filmed at the château de Ferrières #80sstyle #joancollins
Thank you @whowhatwhit for letting me write about @kevinkwanbooks Crazy Rich Asians for @elledecor ‘s ultra glam September issue. I was instantly addicted to these deliciously decadent books and loved hearing how @jonmchu and production designer @necoates1 translated it visually to the big screen #passthepopcorn #crazyrichasians #setdesign #peranakan #tyersallpark
