Happy Saturday. It was another jam packed week (so will be another quiet weekend!). I had a friend staying with me for two nights, together we hosted a trunk show for Sherman-Field. We celebrated Loeffler Randall’s new store in Charleston (so happy to have them here!) on Wednesday, I had a fun wine dinner on Thurs. And yesterday was a birthday celebration for my friend Holley. We went to the ballet! Today? I rest! Whatever you are up to, I hope it’s great. Xoxo
