This is NYC. My home. A surprise can await you aro This is NYC. My home. A surprise can await you around every corner. A photographic moment at any turn. It is moments like these and images like this one that I can snap with my phone and still be a little bit of the photographer that I was in my younger days. Fun fact! I had a scholarship for photography in college and of late, have found myself pining for the good 'ole days when images weren't gone in hours off "stories" or shared without credit. The days where you had to wait to develop your negatives in the dark room and you printed each image by hand. The smell of the developer as you listened to music in that darkroom, your second home, while humming along to your favorite songs. Waiting to see if you had a "good one" and if the "burning and dodging" technique worked the way you hoped it would. I bet there are some people even wondering what I am talking about! Well, I have truly aged myself. But I don't care! I miss those days. So I decided to go for a walk around my city to capture some images today. It felt good. This is one of my captures. I am so glad to be here. My city. My home. My people. We can do this, NYC. We are little subdued, a little pensive, a lot hurting, but we are New Yorkers. We will rise again stronger than before. NYC, you pick us. We have to choose you. I choose you. I love you, NYC. Forever. 📸 by me!

Our city bedroom. Looking forward to getting back Our city bedroom. Looking forward to getting back here and to shifting most of our daily life back to my favorite city on earth. NYC, I love you so much. I also love this minimalist approach to our decor here. Truly believe in buying less, buying to invest, and less is always more. 🖤 📸 by Interior Monologue #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #myinteriorstyle #buylessbuybetter #handmadeisbestmade #craftsmanshipmatters
How about treating yourself to something as Summer How about treating yourself to something as Summer is fading? This necklace is 22k gold-plated, entirely handmade in a London atelier’s studio, hand-engraved and $295! It is double-sided and even folds in half! Very limited inventory! Jewelry has always felt like one of the most personal forms of expression to me. Some pieces ride the waves of trend while others stand the test of time, resting around your neck or on a finger across the years. The perfect piece of jewelry is a totem, endowed with a feeling, a place, a person, or a promise. What makes a piece of jewelry become a part of your every day, deepening its value with every wear? This necklace is all of that for me and you can find it and other treasures in my shop. Alex Monroe jewelry is synonymous with a very British sense of style. It is feminine, delicate and quirky, but above all consistently wearable. Now a much loved brand world-wide, each and every piece is individually designed and handmade in England by Alex and his team of expert jewelers. Inspired by nature and nostalgia, every piece has a tale to tell…and the story continues with you. I discovered a love of boating this summer and this piece allows me to carry my experience of summer and my love of the water into Fall and Winter. Find your piece of summer in my shop. Link in bio to shop it now! Or head to the shopping cart icon on their page and find it there. 🖤💥 #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #craftsmanship #artisan #handmadeisbest #handmadeisbestmade
CRUSH CAMPAIGN #14: Sho Shibuya @shoshibuya is CRUSH CAMPAIGN #14: Sho Shibuya @shoshibuya is one of the most seriously eye catching things I’ve ever seen on the gram for a while. This genius NYC- based artist paints an image of the sunrise or sunset from his window every day on the cover of that same day’s NY Times. I’m smitten. The idea began as a way to document lockdown and has now become a truly mesmerizing series of paintings. I stopped in my tracks when I saw this and thought I just found something so very cool that I had to share! 🖤 📸 Image by @shoshibuya #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #supportsmallbusinesses #handmadeisbestmade #makersfirst #artisans #craftsmanship #supportthemakers #handmadeisbetter #craftsmanshipmatters #interiordesign #interiorinspo #supporttheartist
⚡️Another “typical of Tanya” long post ale ⚡️Another “typical of Tanya” long post alert! Another #myinteriormonologue kind of post! ⚡️I’ve taken to long, soul searching walks as an homage to one of my dearest friends who always took walks along this stretch of beach until Covid-19 forced her and her family’s hand and they decided to move back to Sweden. I miss her and her family every day especially when I’m out in the Hamptons. Especially when I’m walking along the beach out here that holds so many of my life’s special memories. Somehow I’ve been coming here for over a decade with everyone I miss right now and cannot see in person for some unknown amount of time. My besties from London, my Mom and the rest my family in Chicago, my besties from LA, my dog who passed away in London, my besties from Chicago, from Colorado, Sweden...it feels endless and they are all so far away. ❤️ I found myself tearing up about it all as I walked along. Then I thought about not living a life where one feels frustrated about what one cannot control. We have to do what we can to make our own universe and the world we live in a more positive place. This too shall pass. We will come out the other side of this and hopefully try to find moments we will reminisce about this conflicting time. I might find myself walking along this beach again one day feeling so thankful for the memories I created during 2020 on this beach. Many walks along this sand listening to the waves and dreaming up my next steps for my business, might be one. Another might be just wishing I had the time again in one place without planes and “places to be” and house guests and dinner reservations and work-related travel stress or just having to drive back to the city in bad traffic. Maybe I’ll wish I could be free of that again and then I’ll shed a few tears and remind myself not to get upset about things I cannot control...sense a pattern? Ok. That’s all. Love this photo I took of this moment and of these clouds on my favorite beach. Sending you all lots of love and good wishes for a wonderful weekend. Enjoy this time as best you can. I know I will try to do the same. #Interiormonologue #beachwalks #gratitudeattitude
My stairway to heaven! After a massive gut renovat My stairway to heaven! After a massive gut renovation of our 1896 Hamptons home that took literally years to complete, this is the staircase to our master bedroom. It has been such a labour of love and it’s been worth every minute. ❤️ #myinteriormonologue #myhomestyle #interiormonologue #hamptonslife #thisoldhouse #ledzeppelin
CRUSH CAMPAIGN #13: John Derian & Astier de Villa CRUSH CAMPAIGN #13: John Derian & Astier de Villatte⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @astierdevillate was created by Ivan Pericoli and Benoît Astier de Villatte in 1996 and is manufactured in their Paris workshop. For many years now, I have collected their pieces and there is never a trip to Paris where a trip to their store isn’t on my itinerary. I have many, many pieces and can honestly say it is just about the only thing I collect. Yes, it is true. I have a real “collection” of Astier de Villatte!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ They are one of the only studios to keep the traditional artisanal ceramic product in Paris still going after beginning in the 18th century. Known for their one of a kind ceramics, each is constructed in Paris from black terra-cotta clay and finished with a soft white glaze. They partnered with John Derian, of @johnderiancompany, who has retail stores located in New York City. This collection is filled with John’s most beloved images paired perfectly against the crispness of the tell-tale white finish of Astier de Villatte ceramics.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you ever find yourself invited to dinner at my house, you can be sure that dinner will be served on Astier de Villatte. Now I just need to learn how to cook! See yesterday’s post. ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Link to full editorial in my bio!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #supportsmallbusinesses #handmadeisbestmade #makersfirst #artisans #craftsmanship #supportthemakers #supporthandmade #handmadeisbetter #artisanmade #craftsmanshipmatters #interiordesign #interiorinspo #supportthemakers #supporthandmade
I am so happy! This cookbook! This arrived as a su I am so happy! This cookbook! This arrived as a surprise for me and it’s the best surprise ever! Falastin is Palestinian 🇵🇸 recipes from my father’s homeland by one of my chef heroes of all time, @sami_tamimi of Ottolenghi fame and @tara.wigley! This is the food of my childhood. My grandmother aka Teta would visit us in Chicago and I’d find her in the kitchen singing in Arabic while she cooked. All. Day. Long. Nothing smelled better on this earth then the scent of her cooking. She didn’t speak much English but it didn’t matter. Believe me, we sure spoke the same language when she cooked! A love of food crosses all barriers. So imagine my absolute delight when I received a package the other day with this cookbook inside. It was sent to me by one of my nearest and dearest friends @toastncandy just to make me smile. I sure smiled! And shed some tears! It filled my heart with such joy to open this stunning homage to my childhood and my favorite foods and to know that a friend like Nancy thought to send it to me! I don’t talk much about my father’s heritage. My heritage. My father spent a lot of my childhood being “American” and I don’t talk much about where he is from. I know that being a Palestinian refugee, my father spent most of his life without a home or even a passport until he moved to the US at the age of 19. So he assimilated as best he could and my mom being a non-Arab from the south side of Chicago, we just didn’t talk much about his previous life in Palestine or in Egypt where he grew other than when my Teta visited. Then the house was filled with scents and spices and music and a language that made my heart swell and my stomach celebrate. I think it’s time to learn how to make some of these dishes myself and pass this on to my family. And I’ll play some Umm Kulthum while I cook just like Teta did. ❤️ #myinteriormonologue #falastincookbook #palestinianfood #interiormonologue #craftsmanship #artisanmade
Home is where the heart is. Now more than ever. Th Home is where the heart is. Now more than ever. This dining room of ours has had so many new memories created around it as of late. Since March and the lockdown, it hasn’t hosted any big dinner parties, but it has seen more family-only meals in these past few months than it has seen in it’s lifetime! Fierce Uno matches (the young one usually wins) and even fiercer Monopoly games (I usually win. I’m good. Just sayin’...). There has been lots of laughter and story telling and quite a few tears of frustration have been shed here and some shared sadness as well. That’s home. I love this home we built. I love filling it with things I plan to keep forever and hand down to the next generation. 🖤 Through all of this home time and quarantining and isolation in our “bubble”, I’m really seeing the silver lining in this dark cloud of time for so many of us in our country and in the world. So much feels like it’s all so wrong. So I am taking comfort in our ability to stay grounded in our space and yet push hard for change and true equality for all and I will continue to shed those tears but also find a reason to laugh once in a while. 🖤 #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #myinteriorstyle #myhome #craftsmanshipmatters #artisans #handmadeisbestmade #interiorinspo

CRUSH CAMPAIGN #12: Cake Atelier Amsterdam⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This might be one of my most favorite discoveries. In fact, it may be one of my most favorite finds, ever. If you like cake, weddings, and flowers, this is a match made in heaven. The epic talent I want to showcase here is Natasja Sadi, founder and baker at @cakeatelieramsterdam, and she is the force behind some of the most amazing wedding cake and flower creations on earth. Natasja has always had an affinity for all aspects of a wedding. She states, “ever since I was a little girl I’ve been madly in love with elegant princess dresses and fancy flower bouquets.” Flowers, however, are her favorite. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Natasja is known for her delicate and intricate keepsake sugar flowers as well as her weekly Sunday posts on her amazing arrangements utilizing both real and sugar flowers in blue delft pottery she has collected. She thanks her design background for her attention to detail and ability to replicate the construction of each petal of a flower with delicate precision. I truly have never seen anything like it! And Natasja takes pleasure in it: "if people wonder what is real and what is sugar? That is when I'm most excited."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Link in my bio to full editorial! 📸 Photo by @cakeatelieramsterdam and you can buy a print of this photo on her website as well! Have your cake and eat it, too! ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #blacklivesmatter #supportsmallbusinesses #handmadeisbestmade #makersfirst #artisans #craftsmanship #supportthemakers #supporthandmade #handmadeisbetter #artisanmade #craftsmanshipmatters #interiordesign #interiorinspo
CRUSH CAMPAIGN #11: Spinelli Kilcollin⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @spinellikilcollin was founded by husband-and-wife team Yves Spinelli and Dwyer Kilcollin out of their garage on the east side of Los Angeles in 2010. In the beginning of his design journey, Spinelli was searching for a minimal take in a world of ornate jewelry. Inspired by an architectural standpoint, he created these set of linked rings in different weights to be worn a handful of different ways - stacked or spread across the fingers.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Now, the brand has expanded into eyewear and even furniture with the same values intact. Their iconic jewelry remains handmade in LA by the finest artisans. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These beauties are on my all-time wishlist. Crush central.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Link to my "Anytime Gift Guide" editorial where @spinellikilcollin was first featured in my bio!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo by @sevlasphoto for Spinelli Kilcollin.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #supportsmallbusinesses #handmadeisbestmade #makersfirst #artisans #craftsmanship #supportthemakers #supporthandmade #handmadeisbetter #artisanmade #craftsmanshipmatters #interiordesign #interiorinspo #supportthemakers #supporthandmade
