Of all the years I’ve been obsessing over interiors, art and design (I may be “young,” but I assure you I started early!), this apartment belonging to Kate and Andy Spade has been by far the most inspiring to me. The Selby just released these images and I’ve fallen in love all over again with the home’s sophisticated yet quirky, colorful charm (it was previously published in Town & Country, The World of Interiors and in a small entertaining piece in Elle). How darling is little Bea and her bright yellow room? And don’t even get me started on their matchbook collection (causing our Matchbook Magazine team to squeal with delight!). Don’t forget to drool over all the photos here.

I have what some might consider an unhealthy obsession with J.Crew’s creative director Jenna Lyons so when I spotted her profiled in Town & Country magazine’s “Fashion & Style” section this evening I was, to put it mildly, ecstatic. Her outfit is impeccable (tailored blazer juxtaposed by a feather skirt, but of course…) and her answers are as always poignant, classic and astoundingly down to earth. Of course they shot the article in the newest J.Crew boutique on 79th and Madison which was decorated by Ms. Lyons herself and is positively smashing (charcoal grey walls, flea market-esque oil paintings, sleek mid-century furniture, antique rugs faded just enough to make feel them more hip than stuffy…). As far as I’m concerned, this woman can do no wrong.
