My Favorite Things

British-born American journalist Daisy Prince is intimately familiar with the newsmakers, troublemakers, and social mainstays of certain rarefied circles on both sides of the Atlantic. Contributing to publications ranging from Vogue and Town & Country to the Financial Times, she deftly chronicles the rituals, mores, and contradictions of the beau monde. A resident of New York City, Bridgehampton, and Newport, the mother of two also spent years as the editor in chief of Avenue, the magazine of society and social history. Herewith, the AIR MAIL Editor at Large shares the finds that appeal to her most today

Gucci

$4,200

GG Linen Canvas Kaftan

“When I was working at London’s ES Magazine, I had an addiction to Net-a-Porter so serious I had their sleek, black bags delivered to the mail room downstairs instead of directly to my office, for fear that my bosses would find out just how much time I spent on the site shopping. This Gucci tunic is something I’d pair with knee-high boots and picture myself wearing in Rome in the 1960s.”

Lisa Marie Fernandez

$395

Balconette High-Waist Padded Bikini

“Fernandez bathing suits have been my go-to for years. I love their fun patterns and flattering retro design, which means that I can actually still wear a bikini after having had two children and eaten lunch.”

Heywood Hill

$94

January Fiction Bundle

“This shop is a book-lover’s paradise. You can easily—and very happily—while away a few hours here looking at their wares. The salespeople have always actually read the books. This new January fiction bundle looks like the perfect thing to settle down with for a long winter ahead.”

Truce

$38

Supergirl Tee

“The women who started Maisonette all have children themselves, and it shows. The site is well-organized, easy to navigate, and fantastic for presents. I have boys, but if I had a girl, I’d definitely dress her in this Supergirl T-shirt.”

Uncrate Supply

$300

Carbon Fiber Poker Set

“My father taught me how to play poker when I was eight years old on family vacations. We used matchsticks for bets until I graduated to quarters. I taught my boys how to play—they’re total sharks—and we play on winter weekends.”

Rimowa

$720

Cabin Suitcase

“In terms of improving quality of life when you travel, Rimowa suitcases are the golden ticket. The lozenge-like carriers roll so gently that you barely have to push them, and they seem to perfectly flatten and fit whatever you pack. We have four in the family, and I’m thinking of adding more.”
