We all have our favorite day-to-day items, our go-to gadgets and accessories that help us stay organized, keep us on track, or simply make us feel good and lift our spirits as we get through each day. Here’s a list of things I simply can’t live without!
1. My Camera
I love my camera! Photography is definitely an art form and I love photos. I’m not a sentimental person at all, except for my family photographs. If my house was on fire and my family was safe, I would run back inside to rescue my photo albums; they mean that much to me.
2. My Watch
I wear my Cartier Roadster watch every day. It’s a piece of feel-good jewelry for me. I don’t need to wear any other accessory, but without this watch I’d feel naked.
3. The Beach
Being at the beach, any beach, simply makes me happy. We sometimes vacation at Cabo San Lucas, and the beaches there are so incredible.
4. Lip Balm
I must use Kiehl’s Lib Balm twenty times a day. I’m never without it.
5. My Hermes Notebook
I have two of these great Hermes notebooks that I use for work and, of course, in my favorite shade of orange! I’m a bit old school; I still prefer to write things down instead of using my phone or a tablet. I keep one notebook for my own notes and one for my calendar. I use them every day!
6. Helmut Lang
I wear Helmut Lang almost every day. It’s functional but looks chic and stylish.
7. Picasso Etchings
Picasso’s etchings are inspirational to me. They helped me navigate my own development with sketching and drawing.
8. Tom Ford – Black Orchid
My signature scent!
9. Ochre Chandelier
Love this! The Arctic Pear Chandelier by Ochre in any size, any color.
10. Amalfi Coast and My Italian Heritage
My Italian heritage definitely defines a bit of who I am. Being able to visit Italy as a child also exposed me to traditions that influence my family life.
11. Jeans
Love these wide legged jeans – they remind me of the 70’s!
12. High Heels
High heels are a signature of my everyday dress code. I am crazy for shoes! Contractors are used to creating planks and walkways for me to get around when I enter a construction site. I am not practical by far!
