I’m bounding out of town again (Istanbul this time), but before I board, I leave you with a story published in The Cut today. Secret agents, high fashion and hilarious hijinks—all the fun of a Fifties flick in a neat bloggy package.

Rooftop cabanas, SLS Hotel, Los Angeles
Simply Lovely Spaces. Sam loves Starck. Some Light Showers. For me, a late-January weekend at SLS Hotel in Los Angeles meant a seriously sexy sleepover. And Sophie Loves Sleepovers.
Service Luxury Style was the thought of nightclub kingpin-turned-hotelier Sam Nazarian, but the copywriters took it and ran… Now, the aphorisms decorate key cards, note paper, and all sorts of silly little somethings at this Philippe Starck-designed property, the first of a portfolio. Some little secrets ahead…

Mmmm. Carbolicious at Le Cirio, Brussels
I admit it, I wasn’t capital-P psyched to visit Belgium last weekend but the Belgians wooed me—I’m in love! Expect a slew of Brussels-centric posts, but first, I’m off to work off the waffle weight.
