Still thinking about last night. 🙌

A huge thank you to Carriage Barn Arts Center and Janet for giving us such a beautiful venue and backdrop for the evening.

To Jill Dunn of Jillin’ It — thank you for hosting, curating the experience, and bringing the energy that kept the room moving and the connections happening.

Thank you to Tweeds Custom Suits, our Official Event Sponsor, for helping bring the night to life, to Kira of Sweet Daydreams Bake Shop / The Cookie Cart for the treats, and to Perfect Pours & More for keeping everyone refreshed.

And most importantly, thank you to everyone who showed up, participated, introduced themselves, and leaned into the experience.

The whole point of the night was simple: get good people in a room together and see what can happen from there.

Looking forward to doing more of this.

One month since the launch of Maison de Lela 🤍 It would not have been the same without all of these essential details…

To the amazing women in my professional network, my dear friends, my media team, and of course, my family — your encouragement and belief in me mean more than I could ever put into words. Maison de Lela would not be here without each of you. ♥️

And this is only the beginning…

There is so much more I can’t wait to share — from my home and personal style to motherhood, hosting, and the stories that have shaped me along the way.

I’m so excited to build this next chapter with you all! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Hello, October! 🍂
Our October Foodie Issue is here, celebrating the stories, flavors and people that remind us to savor life. ✨

Gracing our cover is Broadway performer turned breast cancer awareness advocate @sarrahstrimelbentley, who shares her powerful story of diagnosis, advocacy and “joy mining,” finding moments of joy even when life looks nothing like you expected. 💕

Inside, we visit @cafesilvium, escape to @chathambarsinn, catch up with hospitality expert @dana_cifone, and find inspiration for effortless fall entertaining. 🍝🍷🍁

We also share @adamvohra_’s deeply personal journey through addiction, recovery and purpose, and how he’s using his story to help others believe a different chapter is possible.

Order the pasta. Take the trip. Gather around the table. Ask for help. Schedule the appointment. Find the joy. ✨

Grab your October issue and start reading! 📖

A little surreal seeing myself on the cover. 🤍

Thank you to @lauralabs and @dariennewcanaanlifestylemag for such a thoughtful feature, “A Legacy Made for the Next Generation.”

I’m incredibly proud to be the fifth generation of my family to lead Palmer’s, and even more excited about where we’re headed next. Honoring 105 years of history while continuing to evolve, grow, and build something worthy of the next generation is a responsibility I don’t take lightly.

So grateful for our team, our customers, our community, and everyone who has been part of the Palmer’s story.

And yes… opening this magazine was a pretty cool moment. 😊

New connections. New opportunities. One room.

On Thursday, October 15, Darien New Canaan Lifestyle and Carriage Barn Arts Center are bringing local professionals, entrepreneurs, business owners, and community leaders together for a Speed Networking Social designed to make meeting people actually fun.

No standing around wondering who to talk to. No cliques. No awkward room full of name tags.

Just guided introductions, real conversations, light bites, refreshments, and a room full of people looking to connect.

We’re also excited to welcome Jill Dunn as our special guest host — Founder of Jillin’ It, host of Love Line with Jill on 96.5 TIC, and featured by MAXIM as a Top 10 Matchmaker.

📍 Carriage Barn Arts Center, New Canaan
🗓 Thursday, October 15
⏰ 6:00–8:00 PM

Come meet people you may actually do business with, collaborate with, refer, hire, work with — or simply be glad you met.

Tickets are limited, and we expect this one to move quickly.

Come ready to connect.

Coastal Classics 🌊
This month, we’re taking style cues from our very own publisher, @lauralabs! Her latest favorite? The @vineyardvines Nantucket Women’s Collection, a dreamy mix of breezy silhouettes, coastal details, and classic New England charm. 💙

Timeless pieces with that effortless Nantucket feeling we never quite want to let go of. 🌀

Take a little piece of Nantucket with you and read Laura’s take in our latest issue! 📖
