Samantha’s newest venture is a line of fine jewelry designed with another friend of Theodora & Callum’s, Jennifer Miller.
Treasure: My husband went to Paris on a business trip right after our daughter was born and bought me a vintage etched French locket and put a picture of our newborn daughter in it. I truly treasure it.
Quote : "That’s #superlux!" - Yours truly
Escape: The beach at the end of Ocean Road in Bridgehampton.
Vacation: Any and all trips to Paris with my husband David. They get better and better the more you know the city.
Inspiration: I’m inspired by branding. What makes a brand work and sometimes, what doesn’t.
Movie: Annie Hall - I’m beyond excited that they’re screening it on Marder’s lawn this summer – and Usual Suspects.
Childhood memory: Finding my mother's Hermès trim bag and stuffing it with toys.
Work of Art: Mark Rothko
Song: "Jolene" by Dolly Parton
Designer : Miuccia Prada. Miu Miu and Prada combined pretty much solve any wardrobe need for me.
Misconception (about you): That I wouldn’t prefer a quiet night at home.
Guilty Pleasure: A glass of rose in the summer, crisp white in the spring, and red in the winter.
Junk Food: Nilla wafers
Youth Remedy: Rodin Olio Lusso
De-Stress Mechanism: Massages from Marc Brycman’s Refresh Body, spin classes at Flywheel Sports and core fusion classes at Exhale Spa.
Cocktail: I adore mint juleps - I don't have them often enough.
Party: I absolutely love Chefs and Champagne in the Hamptons.
Hangover Remedy: A four year old. It makes you have less hangovers, believe me.
Pals: I have a group of six girl friends. We’ve been close since sleepaway camp. We have 9 children between us now. Amazing.
Crush: Oh, absolutely my husband. He's handsome, yes, but he's just the most loving husband and father.
Lipstick and Nail Color: Roman Holiday by Nars is the perfect pink lipstick for day and Tom Ford Moroccan Rouge at night for a bit more color. For my nails and toes I keep it pretty neutral since I seem to be changing for events all the time. I’d say my go-to is Chanel Tendresse.
TV Show: No doubt, Chelsea Lately. She’s hilarious and we had her on the cover of our Memorial Day issue of Hamptons this summer.
Cartoon Character: Madeline. Oh, those little girls in Paris in two straight lines - just love it.
Menu: Bellinis and caviar. What more do you need?
Restaurant: Blue Hill at Stone Barns. My cousin is getting married there this summer and I just know it will be spectacular.
