Zara • CarolinesMode | Net-A-Porter | ELLE

This Étoile Isabel Marant bouclé tweed coat is haunting me! If anyone knows where I can find one, please, please, PLEASE let me know. Until then I will be stalking Ebay...

If there's one thing I have learned this past year, it's that I should never walk away from the things that make me swoon, when I have the chance to get them. Definitely learned this the HARD way over the year (right Karen?). Never happening again!

Anyway, here's to a new year! Hope you all have a great one!

MY AFTERNOON AT HARRY WINSTON

2011-11-29T14:04:00.006-05:00

ph: Ana Schechter

Last week, I was invited to HARRY WINSTON on 5th Avenue for lunch and to check out their iconic engagement ring collection. The moment I stepped through the door I was in diamond heaven! I was given the opportunity to create my dream engagement ring with Harry Winston designers. My dream design would then be sketched for me to take home. I got to see every diamond cut and setting imaginable. I mean, I just about died slipping these rings on my finger! Seriously, the most sparkling beauties I have ever seen! The design I fell in love with was a classic three-carat, round brilliant diamond solitaire ring ♥

We then headed to Harry Winston's old private office (via his tiny personal elevator!), where we were greeted with a delicious elderflower cocktail- one of the best I've ever had! Over cocktails, I got to watch the beautiful video I exclusively posted for you above, showing the design making process of these engagement rings from beginning to end. Ring making is truly an art!

Over the three course lunch we chatted about the diamonds and got to hear some great stories about Harry Winston's history, their charity involvement, and hear about some amazing celebrity and royal encounters. Before leaving, I was presented with my personalized engagement ring sketch- a perfect souvenir that I will make sure to show my boyfriend every chance I get! ;)

Overall, I truly appreciated the personalized experience and getting to learn more about the history and art behind these creations. I want to send out a huge thank you to the Harry Winston team for one of the dreamiest afternoons I've ever had!

Head on over to HARRY WINSTON to check out all of their engagement rings.
I dare you not to fall in love with one!

2011-11-15T17:08:00.008-05:00

lucy chadwick by the selby for zara

i came across this gorgeous video + couldn't help but share.
i got emotional watching this, as often happens when i am so inspired by something.
lucy chadwick is so much what i aspire to be in regards to both my personal style + lifestyle.
her effortless looks + her (brooklyn?) home are amazing! i appreciate the simplicity most.
hearing her talk about her art + being involved with art installations reminds me that i haven't picked up a paint brush since college, which is so sad. as an art major, i was painting + creating 24/7. it's definitely something i want to start doing again. another thing to add to my long list!

ps- make sure to check out lucy's london home. it's just as charming!
