Is "gentle parenting" ruining French children, how to be a snob (according to Proust), what I bought to combat my dreaded 11's, a jean jacket I'm dying over and more.

The salt I can't get enough of, a lipgloss I've been waiting months for is finally back in stock, mommy & me jackets for boy (and girl!) moms, and a collaboration I want one of everything from.

A new hotel opening in Burgundy, the secret to steak frites, probably my most-worn dress, a book that has me dreaming of Italy and more.

Exactly where I ate and drank, shopped, and what I did in May 2026. A surprising kid-friendly restaurant in Paris, my new favorite sandwich in Paris and a quick Portofino trip.

A look at a country retreat that also produces vodka made from watercress, the reopening of the Galerie d'Apollon, my long-haul flight MVPs, Christmas in July and more.

Parisian pied-à-terres, all of Dua Lipa's stunning wedding looks, a few things I can't live without on sale and more.

A guide to Cap Ferret, a must-listen podcast, celebrating the Fourth of July at Versailles, the must-have (almost sold out) collab that's taking over Paris right now and more.

An incredible wedding at Mont Saint Michel, probably my favorite summer recipe of all time, Paris film photography sessions, 11 hour flight prep with a one and two year old and more.

Exactly where I ate and drank, shopped, and what I did in April 2026. My family visited so tons of favorites...and unfortunately one of the most disappointing meals I've had in Paris in a long time.

This year's Palace hotels in France, the show I'm binging this week, body retinols, a Call It By Your Name collab I'm eyeing and more.
