“I have had a hard time figuring out what jeans to wear, and these are a new favorite. They fit like a glove, they’re surprisingly comfortable—which is rare for non-stretch denim—and they’re on trend without feeling try-hard. I like to wear mine with boots or a tall pump.”

“This book looks incredible on your coffee table and is packed with great design discoveries from some amazing women, demonstrating that design is not—and never has been!—just a man’s world.”

“[Retrouvaí founder] Kirsty Stone’s Lollipop collection is somehow classic and playful all at once. The most perfect, special pieces, blending precious and semi-precious stones.

“I think a hot bath is the greatest luxury. So we made these soaps from rare Japanese essential oils: hinoki, hiba, Kitayama sugi, and yakusugi, responsibly sourced from UNESCO-protected cedar forests in Japan, from the limbs of previously cut trees. Each comes hand-wrapped in ukiyo-e woodblock prints from the 17th century.”

“Like everything Gucci Westman does, this case has style and quality. I love how functional it is on the inside—waterproof lining, and so on—and how stylish it is on the outside, with the leather-trimmed canvas. I will need to book a compartment on the Orient-Express now just to show it off.”
