My Favorite Things

“Every time someone is celebrating something special—a wedding, a baby, a holiday—I put together a beautiful gift box of some of my favorite things. This always includes a local handmade ceramic and these incense matches.”

“As a teenager, I was modeling in Paris and still remember visiting Diptyque all those years ago. Since then, I have always kept Orphéon hand and body gel in our homes.”

“I created our core collection to always have my favorite staple pieces available to my clients. I wear this plongé leather jacket everywhere from business meetings to formal events.”

“Ed Ruscha is one of the most iconic Los Angeles artists. I was astonished seeing the variety of his work at his new MOMA retrospective. This work on paper would fit perfectly in my library.”

“I always have a bottle of this in my bag, especially when traveling.”

“Bottega Veneta is the brand I go to time and time again for accessories. I think now is the perfect moment for the return of their classic woven hobo bag. I’ll be wearing the large white version all winter.”

“We love to entertain with dinners full of friends and family. There is something about a big table beautifully styled that allows for people to come together and enjoy time together. I am always looking for unique and interesting table settings; this gold flatware set will be perfect for the holidays.

“I always have Aquaphor on hand. It’s so healing and can be used everywhere by everyone in the family—on the kids, on the go, for makeup, for cuts, to heal… In a pot, in a tube. I love it.”

“I have collected contemporary vintage fashion for over 20 years. I have many museum-quality pieces from Margiela and would love to add a Stockman corset to my collection.”

“Ilaria Icardi is one of my favorite ready-to-wear designers and her jewelry is equally chic. The Tuxedo Ring has that balance of minimal and extravagant that I’m always looking for in jewelry.”

“I never leave home without cinnamon Altoids. They are always with me at all times.”

“Every year, we go away after Christmas through the New Year. It’s an important time to unwind and to reflect and recharge for the year ahead. With five children, my husband and I find ourselves packing a huge stack of these classic black suitcases.”
