Light up My Life

BySusan Chan

I love this time of year. Who doesn’t love ambient stringed lights and a reason to stay indoors and eat warm comfort food? I fondly remember the glow of Christmas lights that hung in my apartment year round when I was well into my late 20s. Ok maybe it was even a little later. Unfortunately…

Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa-Fashion 2.0

BySusan Chan

On Wednesday evening, a dear and talented friend of mine, Carmen Artigas moderated a wonderful event on the Future of Sustainable Fashion hosted by Be Social Change. The event took place at Coco-Mat, a new SoHo retailer who specializes in natural sleep products (another passion of mine!). Feng Shui wise, the space was beautiful, spacious…

Color, not Retail Therapy

BySusan Chan

It’s a drab grey day in New York City. And it’s drizzling…Yes, it is end of October but we have been having such a wonderful Indian summer this month that I’m sure today has alot of folks hanging their heads down low. Luckily I am not someone who is too affected by weather changes but…

Glowing from Within

BySusan Chan

I’ve been listening to my own advice these days. I have been actively working on cultivating my qi – meditating, practicing qigong, getting acupuncture, and eating really, really healthfully. I usually do eat pretty well with the exception of an occasional french fry or two. But boy, am I  impressing myself these days. Every morning…

Feng Shui your plate

BySusan Chan

“Isn’t Feng Shui only about moving furniture around or choosing a paint color?” Yes, those are definitely Feng Shui elements but just part of the equation. Think about it, how does moving your furniture and painting your bedroom wall a color you love make you feel? If done right, you should feel happy and supported,…

A Cut Above the Rest

BySusan Chan

Beautiful isn’t it? If you look very closely though, you’ll see that it’s not as flat as you thought it was…… Whoa. That’s what I said when I saw (and figured out) what exactly was Lisa Rodden’s works of art. Delicate little treasures that are not only gorgeous but spiritually moving and emotionally imbued. Her…

Helping Hands

BySusan Chan

Spring is definitely in the air. Much to retailers’ delight, the unseasonably warm air entices women to window shop and sometimes, ahem, store shop. On such an adventure, I stumbled upon a beautiful in-store design that was short of a full blown art installation. From afar, the delicate colors were ethereal. The pattern, mesmerizing. The…

The Imperial Mondrian

BySusan Chan

Sunday tea at the Mondrian. Or their restaurent, Imperial No. Nine to be exact. Almost as nice as a drive to the country. Almost. The main differences are that it’s off the R train and is filled with fashionistas. The menu looked good (we only had beverages and a nibble) and most importantly the setting…
