Summer Seven with Alyssa Surrett

Hello Again Lovelies!!



I'm so beyond excited to finally be showcasing my blog collaboration with my friend, the fabulous Alyssa Surrett - Marie Claire's Executive Assistant to the Publisher, major style blogger, and super accessory aficionado. Alyssa and I became instant friends after meeting at a Marie Claire x Anne Taylor Loft event back in February. We both showed up wearing the same dip-dyed fox fur scarf, purchased from a store Sucre in our mutual neighborhood of the West Village. Clearly it was fate and here we are.



Over brunch at Sant Ambroeus one morning, we decided on a blog collaboration that involved her curating her must have Summer 2013 accessories and me illustrating them...et voila!! I present to you Alisted and Travel Write Draw's Summer Seven illustrated must have accessories. Starting from top to bottom, left to right:

Mario Testino for Matte Pom Pom Necklace 

Charlotte Olympia Punk Pandora Clutch

Prada Metallic Leather Flower Applique Thong Sandals

Elizabeth Cole Crystal Parrot Earrings

Dior Sauvage 2/S Sunnies

Alexander McQueen Small Heroine Laser-Cut Calf Hair Satchel Bag

Jimmy Choo Preya Leather and Raffia Wedge Sandal

Whether you are spending your last few weeks of Summer working in the city, vacationing in paradise, or riding the Hampton Jitney to another weekend of bliss in the Summer Rental, make sure you do it in style with one or all of our top Summer Seven!!

Much love,

Haute Spot: The Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane

Tucked inside the heart of Mayfair is the fashionable Four Seasons London Hotel at Park Lane. If luxury living in London is your thing, then look no further than this remarkable five-star property just a stone's throw from the Queen's Buckingham Palace. 

This two year old property is timeless in its chic design, highlighting the golden age of travel from the 1930's. The fashionable influences such as framed magazine fashion spreads from British Vogue line the hallways. Stunning suites with closets that remind me of a stylish boutique, luxurious accommodations and private car service for all guests in a complimentary Rolls Royce... complete with a rooftop spa makes this property Haute Travels-approved!

Hello TWD Darlings!!

I cannot believe it's been over a month since I last posted on the blog. I assure you that this was with good reason as it has been one of the most rewarding months I've ever experienced in my career. I have oodles of exciting fashion illustration projects in the works and so much more to share with you here in the next coming weeks.



In the meantime, I wanted to post this custom illustration and photo from the creative shoot I participated in with LILY QIAN called Meagan & Marie back in June. It just picked up a coveted feature on Would You Rock This? which I'm thrilled to share with you all. Have a look and I'll be back soon!!



Much love,

Haute Spot: The Four Seasons George V, Paris

When a Haute Travels girl hits the city of couture, her life is full of luxurious experiences at the Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris. It's always been a dream to call this place home, while in the city of light and now I have to dream bigger! 

You just never know who you will run into while in Le Galerie, the spa or Le Cinq, particularly during Paris Fashion Week; it could be a Haute Couture fashion designer, movie star or millionaire businessmen from anywhere in the world.

Upon checking into my suite, I couldn't have imagined what was waiting for me. But I was pleasantly surprised and the Four Seasons Hotel, George V, Paris didn't disappoint. The service is exceptional and my accommodations were outstanding.

Take a look inside my gorgeous suite...

Have you ever seen anything else like it in Paris?
