Previously at Maison Martin Marigiela, Céline, and The Row, designer Nadège Vanhee-Cybulski has been named artistic director for women’s ready-to-wear at Hermès. With her background, I think she’s an exciting pick.

Kate Moss not only stars in the Stella McCartney f/w campaign (for the 7th time), she reportedly styled the images as well. Love the mélange knit even more.

A few weeks ago, I received a booklet that previewed the fall trends. Green was listed (along with grey and metallic), and at the time, I gave it little thought. But then I saw these non-bright-green items and understood the appeal. The earthy hue of the sweater is lovely and would fit nicely into my predominantly neutrals wardrobe.
On a side note, I had tucked away my Valentino Rockstuds. After a bit of overindulgence, I needed a break. But, last weekend I wore my sandals with a LWD to a cocktail party, and they felt right again.
I’m now looking for a new navy blazer in earnest. Like the Balmain favored by Emmanuelle Alt, I want one that’s perfect with jeans.
For us, summer = riding. We got off to a slow start this season since we changed barns and have had a bit of a struggle finding the right horse for my younger daughter. But it’s all looking up.
While shopping for a new show jacket, I had an “aha” moment– my fall inspiration was right before my eyes. A navy blazer and trim top, paired with either jeans or classic trousers, will be my cooler weather run-around look.

Despite all the great dangly earrings this summer, my go-tos are gold hoops. They just feel right.

I just picked up the Condé Nast Living Outdoor Style issue. There are lots of enviable gardens and pools pictured, but my favorite bit is this alfresco table at photographer Oberto Gili’s Italian farm. The best styling tip is the gorgeous piece of fabric layered over a simple white cloth.
I’ve collected many stunning remnants that are not large enough to cover my table, and this would be a clever way to use them.
Glenn Close stars opposite John Lithgow in the revival of Edward Albee’s “A Delicate Balance” on Broadway this fall. Opening for a limited run on November 20th, this play tops my must-see list.
I’m a huge felt fan, and there are a number of great pieces in my favorite fabric this fall. The Marni sandals, like the slides I posted on a few weeks ago, may need to be mine.

Famed British photographer David Bailey has lensed the Valentino f/w campaign. The black and white images are beautiful.
Summer cocktail party season is in full swing, so I’m stocking up on hostess gifts. I love to give local honey, but could use some suggestions on other great gift ideas. The only present I won’t take is flowers– the hostess has to stop what she’s doing to put them in water.
Photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinnodh Matadin have teamed up with FRAME denim to design a line of jeans. Freja Beha Erichsen models the capsule collection which looks great.
The Hermès Oran is the original leather slide in my book. I have two pairs and neither has seen the light of day in years (really, years and years). I’m inspired by Danish blogger Pernille Teisbaek’s red ones and will pull mine out. If they feel right again, I may consider a new pair in gold box leather below.
After 20 years casting models for Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and fashion shows, I wanted to spend more time with my daughters. KiC is my way to share my thoughts on fashion and style. I believe style should permeate every aspect of our lives — from home, to family, to where we go, and naturally, what we wear — especially when we're just running around.
