BLACK IN FASHION

February 17, 2015

Okay…the other day I had a business meeting with some of my New York colleagues…the meeting was a a video conference call to be exact…when I walked into the meeting sporting a simple black Prada dress, black Woford opaque tights and super high Stuart Weitzman booties, someone on the other end of the video conference call said, “Here comes Coco.  Looking chic as always. She is always wearing black.  Coco I know you don’t know most of the people in the room over here…but some of us were talking the other day and we wondered, do you always wear black?” Without a beat I said “Yes.”  Then my former intern said “The one time she wore purple shoes our boss made fun of her.”  Hmmm…

Anyhoo…all of this to say, I wear a lot of black.  In home decor however, I am a believer in a lot of white…bright crisp clean rooms with white walls and touches of pattern and color here and there.

What about an entirely black apartment our home…would that work and go with my work attire?  Hmmm…thinking….

P.S. Got back from Beaver Creek late last night. TE and I spent the weekend at best of friend FF and CCFs gorgeous skin in ski out home right on the mountain. Was so nice hanging out with them and my godson CGF. We had a great dinner on Sunday night with JH and FH too. Was so much fun!

The bouclé sofa isn’t a trend, it’s a commitment. The bouclé sofa isn’t a trend, it’s a commitment. Soft, sculptural, and impossible to walk past without wanting to sit down. The rooms that get it right pair it with something unexpected: a dramatic mural, an antique screen, a city skyline, a hand-laid mosaic floor.

A well-designed bunk room isn’t just for kids. It’s about making every guest feel like they got the best bed in the house. Built-in storage, thoughtful lighting, and bedding that actually makes you want to climb up top.
Save this for your next build or renovation inspo and follow for more. 🖤

This Toronto home just redefined “warm modern.” 🤎 This Toronto home just redefined “warm modern.” 🤎
Designer Ashley Montgomery layered reclaimed wood beams, brass hardware, and deep walnut millwork against soft plaster walls, and somehow every single room still feels calm. The olive built-ins in the living room, the arched oak doors, that brass shower enclosure in the primary bath... this is what happens when someone actually commits to a palette.

How much summer can you fit into a few days? ☀️⛵️How much summer can you fit into a few days? ☀️⛵️
I flew from Los Angeles to Nantucket for a very quick trip and I’m planning to find out.
Beautiful beaches, boats, gorgeous interiors, time with friends and one last little dose of August.
Turns out you don’t always need a whole week to feel like you got away. 🤍
So happy to be visiting bestie @francesgfayard and her husband Calvin and my godson Carter for a little last minute end of summer travel. New England at its best. Day 1 was a beautiful day. 🤩
You are not going to feel motivated every day. AndYou are not going to feel motivated every day. And you don’t have to.
Some days you’ll feel inspired and everything seems to click. Other days, you’ll question what you’re doing and wonder if any of it is actually working.
The important thing is not to mistake a slow day for a step backward.
You can keep going even when the motivation isn’t there. Some days, showing up is the progress.
Save this for the days when you need the reminder. 🤍
