writer – editor – vintage curator
Welcome to my website! If you love vintage fashion and all things New York, you’ve come to the right place. And I’m glad you’re here.
I’m a writer, editor, and the owner and curator of SHOP STYLAPHILE VINTAGE. I’ve been a New Yorker for the last 26 years, and now split my time between New York City and my home in the Hudson Valley.
What you’ll find here are various musings about life, fashion, and where to go and what to do in New York. If that’s your jam, or you just want to stay in touch, (I quit social media, so this is the only place you’ll find me) click the button below.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you’ll come back.
