If you like to have something waiting for us in the room, coconut water or a bottle of bubbles are always a nice touch. I’m a fan of natural wine, and tend towards crisp, mineral-driven whites, and champagne.

Want to bring a snack? I enjoy cut fruit and fresh berries, caviar and chips, or your favorite treat from the local place you love.

If you’re the type to bring along small tokens of affection (yay!), showing up with books of contemporary poetry, quality bath products, and fun things from the dispensary will make my day. And I’ve never met a beautiful silk scarf I didn’t love…

Like all courtesans throughout history, the men who adorn me with jewelry live close to my heart. I wear mostly gold, and love freshwater pearls, emeralds, and opal. Pieces by Kinn Studio and Leo Black are some of my favorite fine selections, as well as custom work from Communion by Joy. I’m typically drawn towards small designers with unique aesthetics.

A directive to treat myself to a new outfit for date night, or just for fun, is always a happy surprise. Send me to Reformation or Free People, please.

Dress me in lingerie, and you’ll have a gift ready to unwrap— a true win-win! Fleur du Mal is my favorite New York shop, and gifting me a new Bordelle set will easily put you on my VIP list. Sizing can vary so it’s best I go in and try things on myself… please keep in mind that quality sets tend to start at the 300 mark.

A day of relaxation is one of the loveliest treats around. Facials at Rescue Spa and massages at The Chelsea are my current faves. There are so many wonderful spas in the city— feel free to simply send me to one you really love.

For a practical gift I can use immediately, Uber and Delta gift cards are always helpful.

Dine: I’m always happy to suggest places I love, and there are so many spots I’m curious to try-- New York City’s restaurant scene is endless and constantly evolving. If you can get us a spot at Tatiana, I’ll definitely be impressed. I’d also love to try Cote, experience the Chef’s Table at Brooklyn Fare, or finally cross Dhamaka off my list. Let’s do omakase at Sushi Nakazawa, Bar Miller, or your secret favorite. And nightcaps at Nubeluz atop the Ritz, The Bar at Baccarat Hotel, or the Chelsea Hotel are always a good idea. When it comes to moving beyond the city limits, Blue Hill at Stone Barns is a trip I’m dying to make.

Escape: Shall we spend a few romantic days roaming around somewhere together? New Orleans is one of my favorite cities in the country, I’ve never been to Nashville but am curious to check it out, and as a former California girl I’m always happy to join you there, from the Bay to LA, wine country, and beyond.

I’m passport ready— let’s go on a holiday abroad! I’ve been all over Europe and have a long list of cities I’d return to in a heartbeat, with Paris and Barcelona at the top. Croatia, the South of France, and Tokyo are dream destinations, and of course, a beautiful beach anywhere can’t be topped.
