THIS INSTALLMENT OF 10 IMAGES features the Instagram photos of Richard Lee Massey, the PR director at the Town Hall Hotel in London. The first image we came across was one of El Fenn (next slide), a hotel in Marrakech, and were immediately taken with his way of sharing his travels and the city he lives in. Scroll through for a glimpse of his adventures, from Marrakech to the Cotswolds to sipping champagne on the Belmond British Pullman to the utterly charming Soho Farmhouse (above) …

WHILE EVERYONE SEEMS to be getting back to their regular lives again after a long and languid summer, we’re about to change up our schedule a bit after spending most of the summer working. We’ve been planning trips and wondering where we might go this Fall, and places like Melrose, Scotland; and Yorkshire keep coming up again and again. Somewhere a little quiet and out of the way, out of the city for a bit — to think and plan and dream, somewhere perhaps, like this thatched cottage-lined place of magic in Dorset.
As the story goes, Najeeba Hayat, founder and creative director of up-and-coming footwear label Liudmila, was freshly graduated from Wesleyan University with a degree in government when she decided that she wasn’t destined for a life of bureaucratic “banging your head against the wall.” Pursuing a lifelong love of style, Hayat moved to Milan and took a shoemaking course at the ArsSutoria School.
WHILE WE LOVE our work here at TIG and wouldn’t trade what we do for anything, sometimes doing what you love can involve long hours, and at those times (especially on Friday or Saturday evenings) having a glass of wine or a cocktail after finishing up can make things feel a little more celebratory.

It is the height of summer and we’re feeling a little wistful about Ibiza, the island whose turquoise waters, rugged coves and secluded white beaches gets under your skin. And so, this installment of The Edit features a little bohemian chic by way of wicker mirrors and ceramic vases, ikat throw cushions and a book on the subject — and because we can never resist a little glamour, shimmery body oil, diamonds and feathery pink shoes …
IT WAS ONE OF THOSE sipping rosé in the sun kind of weekends, hazy and hot and filled with the quiet languidness and melancholy that comes with the knowledge that these days must be savoured before they fade away. The city is empty save for tourists busily bicycling through the streets and parks; ordering glasses of sangria, folded maps and guide books and cameras strewn across tables and wicker café furniture. While things seem to have settled down for most in these last days of summer, for us, it has been the craziest, busiest, most stressful time yet, with the all the new projects we’ve taken on and the expansion of The Shop, so we’ve been taking a little extra time on weekends for summery things. Perhaps in September we’ll be able to get away for a little while, while the world goes back to school and work …
This week’s links include the Hôtel de Crillon in Paris and a recipe for Breakfast Buckwheat Florentines; a perfectly pretty pink overdyed rug much, much more.
