Season Beginnings – The Palm Beaches

I’m so excited about heading back to the Palm Beaches after traveling for four months!

I’m looking forward to going to the Norton Museum, especially on Thursday for Art After Dark – check their website for more information.

Be sure to check the event schedule for the Kravis Center, where they always have amazing programs on their main stage, the Dreyfoos hall, or Pearson Hall. Check their website for a list of their upcoming events.

It’s always fun to stroll down Worth Avenue and visit the world famous shopping district. For home décor, make your way to Antique Row in West Palm Beach.

If you haven’t been, try the Northwood section, which has more of a Bohemian scene. Enjoy casual dining and art-inspired shopping.

A great place to grab a bite – Northwood Village, Palm Beach

For nature lovers, it is breathtaking to walk through a guided nature tour at the John D. MacArthur State Park. You can also do hiking and boating at the Jonathan Dickinson State Park.

All in all, my home base in Palm Beach County is hard to beat from November through May, and I’m looking forward to giving you more updates through the social season.

The Candy Apple, Spooky NYC

It’s Halloween this week, and wherever you are, have a spooky wonderful week!

New York City! The “City that Never Sleeps!” The Big Apple! It’s my last stop before heading back to West Palm Beach, and it’s a great place to visit if you haven’t experienced the hustle and bustle of such a Metropolitan city.

It’s hard to beat Central Park on a Sunday afternoon. Dozens of musicians, artists, and dancers, all free for the viewing, not to mention the ponds and trees in their fall-colored glory.

Of course Broadway is one of the highlights of being in the city, and I’m very fortunate to be able to see Hello Dolly this week as well as Dear Evan Hanson, which won all the top awards for Best Musical.

There are also a few small off Broadway shows that I want to let people know about. One is called I of the Storm, it’s at the Gym at the Judson. Desperate Measures at the York which is on 54th and Lexington, and Lonely Planet, which is on Theater Row. Those are just a few special off Broadway productions worth seeing.

Great selections for more enjoyable performances in NYC.

For more music in the city, we have Michael Masci who surprises us on Sunday nights at Bemelmans Bar at the Carlyle Hotel! He’s up from the West Palm Beach area – what a treat!

On Mondays, we have the Cast Party at Birdland with Jim Caruso and Billy Stritch, and a lot of Broadway surprises with so many people sharing their talent. What a great way to spend a Monday evening!

This is a fabulous show that you don’t want to miss!

So whether you’re strolling in your cashmere jacket here in New York, or you’re in your cotton and linen shirts in West Palm Beach, Florida, remember, it’s all about style.

The vast 19th Century Biltmore Estate, America’s largest home, has tours available for those curious to see the 8,000 acre property and it’s Chateau-style mansion.

The Basilica of St. Lawrence is also an amazing landmark, and the detail of the architecture is amazing to behold. Not to be missed!

The downtown Arts District and the River Arts District are bustling with activity. Many former factory buildings now house incredible art studios, and sophisticated restaurants. There are local breweries, and an upbeat art and music scene in the area.

If you’re looking to get out of the city for a day, there are many opportunities for hiking, river rafting and zip-lining in the local area.

This is the time of year that there is a big Apple Festival! You can try over 40 varieties of apples! It sounds delicious…

A real treat is to check out the Pinball Museum! Adults and children alike just marvel at all the different games. It just sounds like a blast!

Don’t forget to check out the bluegrass and dancing at the Feed and Seed Music Hall.

All in all, this area of North Carolina, with its landscape of rich history and fun activities sounds like a place that you won’t want to miss.

Marfa, A Hidden Art Town in Texas

It’s a magical and mystical place…Marfa, Texas! It’s a small town three hours from El Paso, and about 6 hours from Austin, Texas, in the middle of a vast desert land on the border of the Great Bend National Forest.

There are only around 2,000 residents year-round, but tons of New Yorkers and Angelinos have descended upon this special place. It’s been discovered because of the amazing art foundations, installations and galleries, even a fabulous book store called the Marfa Book Company. The Donald Judd Foundation and the Chinati Foundation are too amazing for words.

Outside of town is a Prada store! Not really…It’s a Prada Marfa store! A total replica in actual size of a real Prada store. However, it’s just an art installation, life-size – it’s such a hoot! Oddly enough, even in this little town, there are more sophisticated restaurants than you can count on two hands, and a delicious grocery store called The Get Go.

A private Mexican-style hacienda turned into a hotel is full of treasures! The historical Hotel Paisano: when you step into the lobby, you’ll see an array of memorabilia. You can even see original photos of Rock Hudson, James Dean, and Elizabeth Taylor, taken while they filmed the movie Giant in this little town.

I stayed at The Paisano while touring Texas with my BLT Collection

If you’re lucky enough you might even get to see the Marfa Mystery Lights! It’s a special atmospheric happening in the desert sky.

Marfa Mystery Lights will put a twinkle in your eye

If you do have the time, a must is to venture out to the Cibolo Creek Ranch about 30 miles out of town. It is an old fort built around the same time as The Alamo and has been restored by a wealthy Houstonian and turned into a very exclusive resort. I had the pleasure of staying there. While you’re on the property, you can enjoy amazing views of the Rio Grande and Mexico. On the ground there are magnificant crystal formations everywhere!

Because Marfa borders the Great Bend National Forest, it’s been found to be the darkest night sky in the country. For you star-gazers, it is absolutely breathtaking on a clear night.

It is a place that you do not want to miss.

So whether you’re wearing those flannel shirts, cowboy boots, leather jackets and sweaters in Marfa, Texas, or wearing those lightweight linens and those cottons down in Southern Florida, it’s all about style.

Harbourside Happenings: Exploring Boston

Boston. An amazing city and center of New England cultural life. If you’re not heading for the Cape, then this historical city has some wonderful free events that are happening this summer that should prove to be fun for the entire family.

Shakespeare on the Common is free for all! Romeo and Juliet is this season’s pick.

Catch Shakespeare in the park, a perfect night out.

You can picnic and have an outdoor movie and wine at the Boston Harbor. It’s a great way to impress your date – check for listings in the local paper.

Sounds are sweet this summer, especially on the Charles River Esplanade. The Boston Landmarks Orchestra performs at the DCR Hatch Memorial Shell! Check for further information in the local paper.

For a bit of excitement, fly down the Zip Line! It extends 220 feet, it’s 30 feet above the ground, and witness views you’ve never seen in Boston before. Don’t miss it!

The SoWa Open Market features artisans, musicians, chefs and more. It’s on Saturdays and Sundays, and in addition to the farmer’s market and Food Truck Bazaar, there is also a brand new beer garden. It’s open until October 15th. This is Barbara Lynch’s newest adventure and not to be missed.

SoWa Market and food trucks. Give you taste buds a treat!

There are all so many special festivals in Boston in the summertime. Make sure you don’t miss the Boston Seafood Festival on August 13th – yum yum!

So whether you’re strolling along the harbor-side in Boston wearing those cashmere sweaters, or you’re seaside along the Palm Beaches wearing those lightweight linens, remember that it’s all about style.
