Sweetening the Deal


Alexis Mateo, my favorite drag queen from "RuPaul's Drag Race Superstar", is from St. Pete, FL! I saw Alexis in person at the finale crowning party in NYC, and I hope to see her soon in St. Pete, too. BAM!

Wasp Waist


I'd settle for a Grasshopper Waist (whatever that means).

Extra, Extra


Debi and her Italian husband, Gabriele, in their aqua kitchen.


Debi, her best friend and avocado facials.

I just discovered Debi Mazar's new show, "Extra Virgin" on The Cooking Channel. She is delightful, adorable, and the inspiration for my new tropical lifestyle. Here's to eating Al Fresco!

Accidentally


I might accidentally adopt another puppy when I get to St Pete. To keep Nino company. Remember, I'm not retiring to FL, but Nino is. He's going to be 63 in June!

From/To


I am running away from puffy coats and scarves and running to shorts and espadrilles.

Fourteen days.

Getting closer


Getting closer to packing my bags to leave this cold, rainy, forever-winter land called New York City for the sunny, friendly, palm-tree-ville called St. Pete.

Things in Common


My Uncle Michael (who lives around the corner from me in St. Pete) says everything is better with palm trees, and I have to agree.

This looks nice.


It's 43 degrees, gray and rainy here in NYC today.

Stage II


This picture (from thesartorialist.blogspot.com) shows my plan for Stage II of my new life in St. Pete, FL (starting in 20 days).

Stage I: Bicycle
Stage II: Scooter
Stage III: Mini Cooper (or just an affordable car that runs).

Why don't you...


...jazz up your Greek yogurt with sprinkles? I mean really, why not?

A.W.


I still love this gal, and I hope she's doing ok. Today I am wearing grubby ballet flats, just like Amy wears.

Love and loss.


I lost a good friend this week. Hug your friends a little closer today, and do something that makes yourself happy. I love you, Dave Thayer.

Florida Chic



I am excited to live in St Pete and I am also excited to live in a little house again. I am thinking of a name for my new little house. Palm Chateau? (Top Floor).

These pictures came from my new favorite blog:

Her apartment looks like my petit Palm Chateau will look...a white washed version of my current (dark) NYC Pied a Terrier.

Not a cat.


I put this cushion down for a quick second and when I turned back around I saw Nino sitting on it, looking guilty of such cat-like behavior.

Hurry up, Spring


As seen in today's Thursday Styles section of The New York Times.

My colors are blush and bashful.



These rooms (as seen in The New York Times) remind me of the colors of my current apartment on the Upper East Side. I love how bright colors and pastels pop against this dark, neutral, hard-to-name color, but I long for a light and bright space.

Six


Six Points Plus.
Totally worth it.
