I am so excited to see the first listings emerging for The Greenwich Lane in West Village. Named for one of Manhattan’s first roads, The Greenwich Lane is a 200-unit condo project in the West Village that’s hoping to do a few big things: revitalize the block between 11th and 12th streets off of Seventh Avenue, be environmentally friendly, combine historic structures with new construction, and offer “an unheard-of level of character and service.”

The Best Rooftop Pools in NYC

With the 4th of July weekend behind us, summer is in full force and (if this weekend’s weather was any indication) the temperature is only going to rise. While sitting indoors with the air conditioner cranked up to capacity may be an easy solution, it’s impossible–and almost silly–to spend your entire summer inside.

The {NoMad} Life: Q&A with Edition01 Founder Estefania Lacayo

Estefania Lacayo is the founder of one of my favorite online shopping sites, Edition01.com. Edition01 is the destination for innovative and exclusive product collaborations across fashion, lifestyle and art. Estefania and her team work with the best international fashion and accessories designers, artists and creatives to bring the chicest of shoppers rare talent pairings and original style pieces. Estefania’s business savvy isn’t the only thing that drew me to her. She also captivated me with her great taste: in home decor (her own home displays a beautiful mix of organic pieces with sterling silver accents), in restaurants (read about her favorites below!) and the way she approaches life in New York as a celebration of creativity.

The {Upper East Side} Life: Kings of Cole’s Elana Brynes

Elana Brynes and I met at Tracy Anderson Method’s Detox Week in the Hamptons, where she had come to do a trunk show for her Kings of Cole brand, and I was immediately impressed both with Elana’s energy and the creativity in her work! Of course, I ordered two of her Kings of Cole sweatshirts, which are flattering, unique, and comfortable, and I’ve been wearing them nonstop!
I asked Elana, a native New Yorker, to chat with me about her life on the Upper East Side and the inspiration behind Kings of Cole.
