Pop colors are in Samantha Perry David’s DNA — she’s the daughter of Lisa Perry (known for vibrant designs) and grew up in an apartment full of Lichtensteins and Warhols. Here, the Harvard Business School student shows us how she styles Tory’s volcano red cropped jeans (with Lisa Perry’s “Baby” top and Dries Van Noten […]
Anyone in the design field is more than a little obsessed with Pantone, which organizes and cleverly names every color possible. Every year, the company appoints a Color of the Year, based off trends in fashion, art, film and travel. For 2012, it’s Tangerine Tango, a cheerful, prominent hue in our resort palette. Clearly, it […]

“So many flavors around the holidays revolve around spice so I keep a few rieslings on-hand — Trimbach’s bone-dry Cuvée Fréderic Emileis and Albert Boxler’s gorgeous rieslings from the Sommerberg vineyard. Heitz Grignolino, Napa Valley, CA 2008, is such a fun wine, if you can get your hands on a bottle! Grignolino means ‘the […]
“Our family loves Harbour Island in the Bahamas for a Christmas holiday. Walking on pink sand (not snow), wearing next to nothing outside, eating turkey in a friend’s garden dressed in a tunic and mini skirt – heaven.”
“I love to be in Sun Valley for New Year’s. It’s the original mountain town and America’s first ski resort. The mountain has the perfect fall line, and I love spending my days chasing my boys down black diamond runs.”
“The Big Island is my family’s favorite vacation destination; it is like a second home for us! The weather is always beautiful, the beaches are pristine, and the water is warm and clear… The ocean is teeming with incredible sea life — you can swim among dolphins every day and are guaranteed to see the […]
“I’ve been going to Punta del Este for the holidays since I was born, so there is a bit of bittersweetness. The landscape is absolutely gorgeous: you have the sea next to small mountains next to forest of pinos. It’s a beautiful town — really chic, with lots of high buildings along the seawalk. But […]
“I am going to Cartagena de Indias in Colombia. It’s known as the ‘Latin Venice’ because of its colonial palaces and the incredible town filled with the most beautiful hidden houses and gardens.

The Look: Pulling off brightly colored denim whether it’s January or June. Style Tip: “I love bold, colorful denim. In the winter, when fall-back black needs spicing up, you can wear a pop-hued pair of jeans with a winter white or wool blazer. It transcends the seasons and looks great in the summer with simple […]
“We are going to Albany! We’ll be with my husband’s family, as his brother, NY State Governor Andrew Cuomo, will be hosting us all for his first Christmas in the Governor’s mansion. My kids especially love swimming in the warm F.D. Roosevelt indoor pool that is encased in a greenhouse of glass that Roosevelt built […]

“Consider buying gifts for loved ones that give back or are better for the environment. The gesture is all the more meaningful if it is helping others.”
The average American gains between 4 and 7 pounds between Thanksgiving and Christmas. It’s a scary statistic. Parties, family gatherings, stress, alcohol and fatigue are all culprits of the binge. Being inundated with goodies — gingerbread cookies fresh from the oven, caramel covered anything and (my all time favorite) pecan pie with vanilla ice cream — is also a factor, generating (a feeling of ) nostalgia for a time when we were young, happy, well cared for and well fed.
Family and friends are gathering for an early Christmas dinner. See what’s on the menu…
A new artist we’re excited about— Lianne La Havas. Listen to “No Room for Doubt” for a moment of zen during the holiday rush.
“If you feel good, you look good. Set up a situation and then distract everyone so they are not focused on having their picture taken. Something that is fun where everyone is laughing and feeling good!”
