I am thrilled to announce the one year anniversary of The {New York} Life! What I’ve been able to share with you over the last year has been both fun and moving. The greatest reward though has been the opportunity to develop incredible relationships with amazing, inspiring friends that have enriched my career and have given me an insider’s view on all the different ways people express life in Manhattan – with their homes, through food, with fitness, in being mommies. I am so grateful to live in this amazing city that has always had so many doors of opportunity for growth for me.

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.
I chatted with Estefania recently over lunch at The Nomad and got to know what makes her New York Life so unique…

TOWN Residential’s new marketing campaign, “Look Up New York” is beyond inspiring. How often do you look up throughout your day, between business and iPhones and all of our daily distractions, and notice the beauty of this city in the history and architecture? Being a New Yorker, we are surrounded by so much beauty that’s easily missed. I love TOWN’s encouragement to take time to Look Up and truly appreciate the city…
I love the balance of my friend Marni Salup’s New York lifestyle! A neighborhood she loves, a walk-up apartment with tons of character, a PR company she founded herself, and the healthy discipline and strength of a triathlete. Through her PR work she secured a recent feature for Maria Brito in Elle Magazine – an example of how women can help each other succeed, adding value to each other’s lives by celebrating and empowering each other and sharing in our journey of parenting, careers and being our strongest selves!
Marni is inspiring in so many ways! Naturally, I had to ask her to sit down and talk with me about her exciting life in Chelsea and what she loves most about living in New York…

Being a city mommy has its own challenges and rewards. There are days I claim a “total success” when I can drop my kids off to school, pick them up and do homework with them and contribute towards playtime while negotiating deals for my clients and showing the hottest properties in the city, and fit in a workout. However, not every day is the perfect city mommy or real estate life day…
Happy Valentine’s Day! Fall in love with Bianca Pratt in a special Valentine’s Day Q&A!
I met my friend Bianca Pratt first as a workout buddy at Tracy Anderson’s studio, and I’ve been lusting after her jewelry ever since. The simplicity of her pieces creates a very classic style that looks great on any woman and would make a perfect Valentine’s gift, even if for yourself! They are also great pieces to wear in business, for they’re not ostentatious. I sat down with Bianca at her Tribeca loft, which mirrors the classic beauty of her work, to talk about the New York life, mommyhood, and how she creates a “balancing act” in her life…
