Uptown Chic

APT with LSD on Vogue.com has featured their first uptown apartment.  I'm sure it only made the cut because it looks like a downtown apartment and is owned by a rock star and his former fashion designer wife. It reminded me a little of Marcelo Lucini's Buenos Aires flat I posted earlier today. It belongs to Laura and Diego Garcia and their baby Georgiana and is definitely worth a look.

P.S. I saw Bill Cunningham New York tonight and LOVED it!  The Film Forum has added three more showtimes daily but it runs only through March 29th.  Run don't walk to see it before it leaves.  The movie will definitely make you want to run up to Bill Cunningham and give him a hug the next time you see him.  And you know what, I just might!

At Home with Lauren Santo Domingo

Lauren Santo Domingo is an editor at Vogue and one of New York's chicest fashionistas.  When she began her series APT with LSD on Vogue.com, I was keeping my fingers crossed that she would let us into her own apartment.  It's an eclectic mix of pieces that seem to have been collected during her travels.  I'm very jealous of her Willy Rizzo coffee table and Lalanne hippo bar.  She and her husband Andrés are expecting their first child in April, a great birthday month if I do say so myself, and will be transitioning the room above into a nursery.  I'm sure it will be a very chic room for a very chic baby!  My only criticism of the APT with LSD series is the photography.  I really wish Lauren had someone working with her who knows how to shoot interiors.  I feel like this apartment is probably even better in person. But I still enjoyed the peek!

Winter in the Adirondacks

I was thinking how nice it would be to post a something snowy on this first day of winter and magically, the perfect house came to me.  APT with LSD on Vogue.com toured the family home of Amanda Brooks in the Adirondacks.  Looks like a beautiful place to spend Christmas.  For all the details, check out the full story online and don't miss Amanda's I Love Your Style website.  I'm still sick and definitely going back to bed! Later Skaters!
