Birgitta's daughter, Natascha Wittgenstein, is the designer behind Tooshie Swimwear.  She is actually Princess Natascha zu Sayn-Wittgenstein Berleburg, the only daughter of Birgitta and Prince Robin Alexander Wolfgang Udo Eugen Wilhelm Gottfried of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg (why not put the whole name!)

Style Icon - Jackie O!

Jackie O in a black tee...




“I have been through a lot and have suffered a great deal. But I have had lots of happy moments, as well. Every moment one lives is different from the other. The good, the bad, hardship, the joy, the tragedy, love, and happiness are all interwoven into one single, indescribable whole that is called life. You cannot separate the good from the bad. And perhaps there is no need to do so, either.”
-Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis

Style Icon - Audrey Hepburn


“I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.”
― Audrey Hepburn

Style Icon - A Kennedy Family Portrait

Family portrait of the Kennedy's (notice her Jack Rogers white navajos!)


I just finished reading Mrs. Kennedy and Me by Clint Hill.  It was fantastic!  I loved reading about Jaqueline through the eyes of her secret service agent.  I always forget how young she was as first lady!

Five Simple Summer Essentials



Happy First Day of Summer!  Here are my five simple summer essentials.  What are yours?


1. Aviator Sunglasses make me feel like a movie star even when I have skipped my make up!

2. White Jeans are a summer staple.  I pair them with everything from simple striped tee-shirts to lacey tops and heels for the evening.

3.  I wear Jack Rogers sandals almost every day in the summer!  They are so comfortable and have a very Jackie O in Palm Beach look so I don't feel sloppy.  Jack Rogers - Palm Beach Navajo Flat  


4.  I use the classic LL Bean totes all summer.  They are great for travel and they make a fantastic beach bag!


5. Even when I am not there, I love to smell like the beach!  Bobbi brown makes the most amazing Beach fragrance and I love the body scrub and soap bar too! Bobbi Brown Beach Body Scrub 6.9 Oz.

Style Icon: Ann Bonfoey Taylor

I adore the amazing Charlotte Moss and I love the article she contributed to the Wall Street Journal about Ann Bonfoey Taylor.  She was part athlete and part lady but she was always styled to perfection.  Click here to read the article.
