Wishlist + Favorites
I never expect gifts upon arrival for an engagement, but they are welcome and I will never forget you if you bring one. It is an easy way to become my favorite gentleman!
If you need date ideas, you can add a personal touch to some of the experiences I’ve already fantasized about - or come up with something all your own! I am very open minded and enjoy many activities. My newsletter and blog have great ideas for dates every month.
Generally Speaking...
Pink is my favorite color.
I love flowers so much! My favorite floral arrangements are made with peonies, white roses, and hydrangeas. I love floral arrangements from Allan Woods Flowers (they even have subscription plans - you could send flowers every month) and Park Florist in D.C. I also adore La Fleur bouquets.
I am a social drinker and love a glass of Ruinart Blanc de Blancs or Krug Rosé or Champagne. For red wines, I prefer Syrah (or Shiraz); for white wines, I like Semillon, white Burgundy wines, and Chardonnay!
Regarding scents for the home (or our hedonistic sanctuary), I am most easily enamored under the spell of Jo Malone's Pomegranate Noir or Diptyque's Baies.
My measurements are 34G-26-42" and I am 5'3".
My dress size is generally a US 4 [UK 8, FR 35, GER 34, IT 40, AUS 10, JP 9], or small.
In tops, I am quite busty and generally require a medium.
For bottoms and jeans, I am usually a medium or pant size US 4 or a 29 (although tailoring will inevitably have to be done to accommodate the incredible ratio between my tiny waist and ample derriere).
In shoes, I wear a size 8 or 38. [size 39 in high end designer shoes such as Christian Louboutin].
My favorite spas are The Spa at the Four Seasons in Washington, D.C., The Chuan Spa at the Langham Hotel in Chicago, and Spa Nalai in the Park Hyatt in New York City.
Revolve, Bordelle, and FWRD Gift Cards
It is my pleasure to accompany you everywhere and anywhere you want to go this summer - and rest assured, I can curate a look for each occasion!
Whether we are meandering through the halls of art museums, enjoying sunset dinners on seaside terraces, lounging on boat decks… I love dressing to impress you!
Revolve, Bordelle, and FWRD are my favorite places to shop for gorgeous garments that will make your jaw drop… before we drop them on the floor! As an added bonus, I am an investor in Revolve Group Inc., allowing me to enrich my closet and my wallet at the same time!
Goyard Paris Travel 45 Bag
Forever on the move, but always in style! I must admit that a demanding travel schedule makes it a challenge to remain cool, calm, collected, and cute! But fashionable, well-crafted luggage makes such a feat look effortless!
Goyard is one of my favorite designer brands, and I am newly in love with this beautiful Boeing 45 travel bag. It is the perfect size for tossing in just enough clothes for last minute, late notice weekend getaways. I also like to keep a change of clothes and toiletries for freshening up towards the end of an international flight, ensuring that I arrive fresh and adventure ready - this carry-on size bag is perfect for stashing the necessary essentials!
Get in touch, and I’ll send you the contact details for my preferred personal shopper - who is always available via phone and email to help set up the purchase and delivery of this item!
Gift Cards
If you are at a loss for what to bring, gift cards are always welcome! Like the rest of the world, I do a lot of shopping on Amazon. But I still go out in person - my most frequented stores are Intermix, Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, and Bergdorf Goodman. I also shop online at ASOS, Revolve, FWRD, and Net-A-Porter.
Hobbies & Interests
My friends and I are always into adventures, which is why TopGolf and Ticketmaster gift cards are perfect!
I’ve been a lifelong lover of sport, but I’m only just learning the basics of Golf and Ski. Private or Group lessons at any resort you love make for a great gift and will of course drive my competitive spirit on our next outing. Alternatively, you can outfit me in the proper attire with a gift card to FWRD or gift equipment purchases through Dick’s Sporting Goods.
The spectator experience can be more fun than participating, since there is no pressure to perform! I love watching just about any sporting event, so experiences at basketball, football, hockey, baseball, and soccer games or tennis matches, Formula 1 races, and golf tournaments are always welcome. We can do them together or if you would like gift me with tickets to one I will definitely go and send you photos!
I love to play with makeup and I can never have enough! Allow me to primp for you with a luscious red lip from MAC Cosmetics and bedroom eyes from Sephora (my fave!!!)
Books
I am a voracious reader and extremely appreciative of the power of great literature. A good book will literally touch your spirit. On my current wishlist for books, I have: Lend Me Your Ears: Great Speeches in History by William Safire and The Singing Trees by Boo Walker. As an environmentally conscious and space saving measure, I ask that you consider gifting books by sending an iTunes gift card with a love note.
Wellness
I lead a very active lifestyle in order to maintain my stunning physique, and spend a lot of time in spas and salons to care for my hair, skin, and nails..
I am a member at Equinox - contact me for information on how to sponsor a month of my membership or send a gift card for personal training. Locally, I attend pole fitness classes at Pole Pressure. Almost all of my athletic attire comes from Lululemon and Alo Yoga, if you’d like to outfit me in booty-emphasizing leggings!
I visit Faccia e Corpo once a month to promote beautiful, glowing skin - I want to look amazing when waking up with you in the morning! My aesthetician offers an “Experience” subscription plan, which makes for a great gift… ensuring I can be stunningly beautiful for you when laid bare or when glam for a night on the town!
There’s only one group I trust when I’m in D.C. for my immaculately manicured nails and feet - SpaLogic!
For relaxation treatments, I have favored therapists at The Spa at the Four Seasons in Washington, D.C., The Chuan Spa at the Langham Hotel in Chicago, and at Spa Nalai in the Park Hyatt in New York.
Charitable Contributions
Charitable contributions on my behalf can be made to My Sister's Place, and Fight For Children.
I also support the American Civil Liberties Union.
Lingerie
I do love lingerie, and if you pick up an outfit I will certainly wear it for you on our date [or next date]. My measurements are 34G-24-40" and I am 5'3".
My preferred designers are Agent Provocateur, La Perla, and Bordelle. I swear by Wolford for hosiery.
Shoes & Handbags
A woman can never have enough shoes or handbags! They literally take an outfit from couch potato to runway model. Christian Louboutin, Guiseppe Zanotti, Tom Ford, Jimmy Choo, and Saint Laurent are my favorite brands.
I am a luxury handbag collector. My favorite handbags are Dior (I love the small Lady Dior - I hope to have one in every color!), Goyard, Hermes, Chanel, and Fendi.
Watches & Jewelry
Over the years, I’ve become less fascinated with the vanity of fast fashion and developed an immense appreciation for timeless collectibles. Like our relationship, these are things to be treasured and cared for.
I am a lover and learner of incredible horology - deeply reverent of the masterful handiwork, craftsmanship, and technical knowledge that goes into an incredible timepiece. The object of my most intense desire, at the moment, is Vacheron Constantin’s Égérie Moon Phase; rivals for my affection exist, still, with Cartier’s gold and steel Tank Française and Rolex’s 28mm Lady Datejust in Everrose Gold and Oystersteel.
Like a princess, I love to be adorned in gold and jewels. The beautiful Cartier LOVE collection always makes for a beautiful piece that can enjoy an ever-present presence on the wrist or hand; the Ecrou de Cartier is a more uncommon, still eye-catching piece. In the classic bracelets, I wear a size 17; for rings, a size 4. The Sweet Alhambra butterflies at Van Cleef & Arpels make my heart flutter as a symbolic ode to my lifelong indulgence of fantasy and the ethereal.
Perfume
I absolutely love perfume, although I do not often wear it to engagements for discretion purposes. I keep a huge collection of them in my home boudoir. My favorite fragrances are Baccarat Rouge 540 by Maison Francis Kurkdjian, Aventus for Her by Creed,and Intense Cafe by Montale Paris.
Other likes: Delina by Parfums de Marly, The Noir 29 by Le Labo, Rose Noir and Accord Oud by Byredo, CoCo Mademoiselle by Chanel, Chance Eau Tendre by Chanel, Flora Gorgeous Gardenia by Gucci, Guilty by Gucci, 3 L'Imperatrice by D&G, and Acqua di Goia by Dolce & Gabbana.
Gadgets
I am a techie. I love to play video games! My Amazon wishlist has a couple of gaming consoles. Any top rated game I will play, although I prefer first person shooters, stealth games, and RPGs.
My graduate studies having me doing a lot of data science work. Best Buy and Apple gift cards go a long way for me. Currently on my wishlist is the 2TB Space Gray 12.9” iPad Pro.
Destinations
The most extraordinary gift one could give, besides their time and attention, is a new perspective- which is exactly what a chance to travel provides. I love being off-the-grid and caught up in the languages, dialects, and cuisines of exotic places.
Travel gift cards or miles and points as gifts are always welcome.
My preferred airlines- Delta, Alaska Airlines, and Southwest Airlines for domestic escapes; Etihad, Emirates, Qatar, and Singapore Airlines for International adventures.
In the Northeast, I travel by train via Amtrak.
For hotel chains, in order of preference, I love the Four Seasons, Shangri-La, Langham Hotels, Hyatt, Marriott/Starwood and Hilton. Currently, my vacation destination wish list includes the Phillippines, Bora Bora, Bali, Anguilla, Iceland, and Morocco.
