Tea for Two


Today I bought this cast iron tea kettle and I love it! It is by Staub and has an infuser ball inside so it acts as a teapot as well. I opted for the cheerful yellow and it makes me happy! too many teas too little time!!

There will be Blood


What a disaster! but I've learnt my lesson never to work with someone else on a creative project without A: Knowing them enough in order to better predict their motives and intentions B: Trusting my instincts when clearly the person is utterly incompetent from the get go C: Not get screwed over financially and driven crazy in the process!

Mauvais Sang



These are a few teaser pics from my first fashion shoot! This is my first collaboration with designer Katie O'Brien. Photography was by Elizabeth Raab, hair by Linh Nguyen from J'adore magazine and makeup by Chris Milone. Zara, the model pictured top, is the first Afghan model to appear in Vogue magazine. Both models were a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with them and the team again in the future. The final pictures will be available to view later in the month of March on my website.

LPandP by Catherine Fung


We were at Coterie trade show last week and it went really well. Catherine Fung, the head designer (pictured left) is my boss and as you can see form the picture the aesthetic fits me perfectly. So perfectly in fact that the look on the right, (which contains a little black number), was named after me. The 'Roseanna' dress debuts this fall. I am in the process of setting up LPandP's online store. We have a website at the moment at www.lpandp.com - check it out!

I want to ride my bicycle


I saw this DKNY bike from across the street and found it hard to ignore, for obvious reasons......

Hand Painted Wallpaper


I was upstate this past week-end and stayed at a beautiful Inn. Kelly, the owner of the Inn at Haines Falls, had refurbished the entire victorian house in William Morris / Arts and Crafts decor! Every room had custom made wallpaper and woodwork that echoed the era. I was transported through time with the abundance and accuracy of the furnishings. I have many more and better pictures to come!
