North Fork
North Fork provided our own Scott McBee and I with some truly lovely languid days — reading, lounging and generally being grateful for the change of pace. It was the perfect opportunity to catch up with friends while getting aquatinted with this beautiful place.
A few minutes walk is the village of Orient where we had a bite at the charming little Orient Country Store — for the most scrumptious desserts one only has to head to the Four & Twenty Blackbirds pie shop. If you are in the mood, a little shopping at the Old Orchard Farm Store will find you a sensational assortment of reasonably priced things.
A little tour on our hosts’ boat gave us an entirely different perspective of North Fork and its sublime seaside setting — needless to say, we’ve already sorted out a plan for the 4th of July holiday weekend there.

I am photographed (top) taking a moment before cocktail hour — I’m sporting a Tom Ford red cotton jacket, pale blue cotton mini herringbone weave shirt and a royal dot print silk pocket square, Uniqlo white slim jeans, an Adriano Meneghetti braided cotton belt (detail below).

I’m also wearing Ralph Lauren madras plaid espadrilles, vintage Rolex, Creed Cedre Blanc fragrance and Tom Ford Bronzing Gel for a bit of a sun kissed glow.
