Bits of Inspiration

Art is one of my greatest source of inspiration. It breaths fresh air into my cluttered head.

Ilse Bing, Self Portrait in Mirrors, 1931

Valerie Berlin, Untitled, 2003

Gertrude Kasebier, The Manager, 1899

Rivane Neuenschwander, visitors select ribbons printed with a wish to tie around their wrists. When the ribbon falls off, tradition has it that one’s wish will be fulfilled. Visitors may write another wish and place it in the empty hole.

All fun and no sleep

There’s always a new and fabulous hotel cropping up in NYC. Here are my favourites…

Anything but standard, if a building can be described as sexy I think the Standard is it.

Yep and gorgeous models just hang out the front. Love the fishtale braid, straight off a NYLON magazine shoot.

The Standard bar, perfect for sunset drinks.

The Jane is a magnificent looking hotel, old world and chic it’s straight out of a scene from Great Expectations.

Art Director (and tour guide!) Louisa Gent. Hold onto your shorts for summer ladies they had a huge following in the NY style stakes.

Crosby Street Hotel

The quirky garden

Soho House for great cocktails by the pool (to Australians its more like a bath but it does suffice)

Casting Director Melissa Woolford, working a timeless look aviators, Rolex and a G&T.
