Ana Meier’s minimalist wedding in East Hampton, NY.














The story from Vogue, below:
“Ana Meier, daughter of legendary architect Richard Meier, has inherited the minimalist gene. The 29-year-old furniture designer loves clean lines and everything white, which comes in handy at a wedding. On Saturday, Meier wed realtor Daniel Creighton, 30, at the Meier family home in East Hampton, New York, in what began in the early planning stages as “a little ceremony on the lawn,” but over the course of nine months assumed the proportions of a mini-blockbuster. In charge of overseeing every last detail of the proceedings was Meier’s father, who designed the Getty Center in Los Angeles and the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art, but joked that those projects and others of similarly iconic scope “were nothing compared to this wedding. It was quite an undertaking. Now I can get back to my work.”
The sun-dappled celebration unfolded gracefully as guests arrived at 4:00 p.m., greeted with punch, iced tea and a six-piece classical ensemble playing classic rock songs (Queen’s “Somebody To Love”). In a clearing between tall oak trees, the wedding party walked along the rolling green lawn to Pachelbel’s Canon. “It’s perfection,” noted Calvin Klein, a neighbor in East Hampton and a resident in a Meier building in New York’s West Village. “Ana’s dress is perfect in its simplicity.” Sipping sparkling water further up the lawn, the designer of said double-silk column dress, Francisco Costa, the creative director for womenswear at Calvin Klein, revealed that the bride considered three different whites—ivory, white, and optic white—before settling on the medium shade. “She knew exactly what she wanted,” Costa said. “It was a collaboration.” Translation: It took six fittings to get the scoop back, chain-stitch seams, and draping just right.
Cocktails and a family-style dinner for 250 were served in a Meier-designed clear tent hung with semi-sheer white linen fabric panels that softened the angles and created a flattering light. Guests, including Frank Stella, Carl Icahn, andSandy Gallin, sat at three long tables covered in Belgian linen, candles of different sizes, and local white flowers—Queen Anne’s lace, snow roses, and dahlias. After a dinner of lamb chops, chicken, and sweet Italian sausage, the best man gave a typically teasing speech. (“Ana, you have truly classed Daniel up a bit. I don’t think I’ve seen him in an Adidas tracksuit since he’s known you”) and a rousing cover band entertained with a set list that started things off with general crowd-pleasers (“Dancing in the Street”, “At Last”). As the evening progressed, Ana, now wearing a second Calvin Klein creation for the reception, this one an ivory silk-chiffon V-neck dress, and her guests danced into the night.” –Vogue

I’m not a “fan” of Lauren Santo Domingo or LSD as she likes to refer to herself. I’m not sure why she’s so popular with the media or the fashion crowd. I do, however, have to give credit where credit is due and she does always look chic. Here is a glimpse inside her Manhattan apartment via Vogue. My favorite room is definitely the office/closet. I also love her hippo bar cart.

I love this editorial for the lustrous Jessica Stam and her brilliant blonde tresses.

I’ve had serious affection for Gemma since I saw her in the BBC production of Tess of the D’Urbervilles. I think she’s lovely and I agree with most of her style choices. She also has a versatile look.

When one has long hair, one is blessed with many hair options. While I tend to gravitate towards ponytails, I am enchanted by buns and chignons, intricate or tossed together and I am going to try to utilize them more in my hairstyle routine. Enjoy the inspiration.

This is vintage ODLR from 1979 featured in W: The Designing Life, 1987 and found via OscarPRGirl. I love everything about this photo from the dresses to the shoes to the backward locket to the girls to the dock.
I hope you’re having a good week. I’m finally feeling like myself again.

I have been hearing SO MUCH about the Grey Dog vintage boutique housed in a little 1973 Airstream trailer. The teeny mobile holds a wealth of vintage dresses (all tailored to a modern fit), baubles, sunglasses & more. I finally went last week and it was better than I could have imagined. The owner, Molly has a keen eye for items that the trend conscious will enjoy just as much as the vintage-enthusiast. There are new options almost every week and they’re all very reasonably priced. There’s even a mini-fitting room! A must-visit for any stylish Fayetteville girl-about-town!
Currently located on the corner of trenton and college avenue (across from the new skating rink)
