From the moment I met my good friend, Francois Payard, three years ago at a foodie Harvard Club event, it has been an incredible ride of all things filled with culinary fun to spontaneity at its finest! But between him throwing me into his Soho bakery oven to us recently filming a top secret Payard

When you bring a Southerner to NYC, it’s almost like a box of chocolates…you never know what you’re going to get!

Pardon for just now posting on this fine Wednesday, but between catching the sniffles bug + not having any internet or cable {thanks Time Warner!} this week, the B+H chica has been flat out of the loop! So when I was brainstorming what to post once I finally had my hands on a working laptop,

If you’ve never been struck with an illness that makes you feel anything less than beautiful, it’s impossible to remotely relate to someone who is facing a severe challenge right now. So when I heard two well-known companies, Burt’s Bees + Lipstick Angels, were collaborating with the motive of transforming and uplifting spirits of women

Picking out new accent pieces for Casa Blanca? That is one I am constantly on the hunt for around the city! But since my apartment has more of a modern feel to it, I’ve found I’m dramatically more drawn to purchasing vintage pieces to mix it up a bit. And although I could spend hours

So long comfy flip-flops, the cold air is making its way back into the city and it’s a must I keep my Essie polished toesies warm…in a stylish way, of course! But while I’ve got a closet full of suede to wedged boots to flaunt, there are those days when I honestly just don’t feel

With Fashion Week shining bright around the city this week, I wanted to step back and think about the exciting creativity + dedication other New Yorkers are into at the moment…with a fashion influence, of course!

Although the views were stunning, the lobsters were incredibly fresh, and the hikes were out of this world, my ultimate favorite part about visiting the coast of Maine was diving into their farm to table restaurants at night. The two I’m obsessed with? That would be Primo and Fore Street. Both restaurants are maintained by

me + brother worth One of the main reasons I was so excited about traveling to the coast of Maine over the holiday weekend? That would be the magical area of Acadia.

So how could we go to Maine and not have lobster…and tons of it? But contrary to what one would think, the best lobster joints we found were actually not luxurious where staff feed us lobster-ous cuisines. The three most delicious lobsters and lobster rolls we inhaled over the weekend were those we had en
