hello dearies! sorry not to be checking in as often as i'd like, but things seem to be hectic hectic everywhere. work & fun & such a wonderfully successful post-war and contemporary evening sale on tuesday. but tomorrow i know that after a morning at the met, i will stroll peacefully down fifth ave, basking in the filtered light created by the avenue of overarching tall oaks overhead, bursting with autumn, possibly similar to the photo above. this is reminiscent of last year's treks through hyde park & the path in st. james & green park leading eventually to the palace ... long strides & deep breaths in my tall riding boots.

| isn't this just magical? |
and this reminds me of photos i've been dying to share for a full year now ... a perfect autumn saturday in the english countryside, at the most magnificent chatsworth. a great duke's 'attic sale' hosted by sotheby's followed by hours of romping about the grounds, snapping photos of remarkable vistas, the house a picturesque masterpiece, & in the house, gasping at its beauty & extravagance, and hoping just hoping that mr. darcy would appear around every corner. all coming soon, tomorrow perhaps?
but now, head out of jane austen & back in new york, i think i have found the.perfect.nail.color for november pre-thanksgiving. downtown brown by essie. described by essie as a chocolate brown with deep red undertones, it is quintessentially late autumn, moving away from the apple reds of september & october & preceding the jewel-tones and sparkles of the christmas season. & now two manis in a row. thoughts? what are your go-to colors for november & december? so happy for my walk down 5th tomorrow. surely instagram pics are in the making.. happy almost weekend. xx hillary
