Chapter 1

HANNAH

Welcome to my humble abode!

Thank you soooo much for taking care of my new home – happy to know that the place will be in safe hands without me. Sorry that some rooms are not quite ready yet, but still lots of space to enjoy (no parties though, please – leave that to me!).

Know Sara’s filled you in on everything already, but just another quick reminder that the marble guys are coming on the 15th (before they install it, just make absolutely sure it’s Calacatta and bookmarked as ordered), and a couple of Peacock chairs (sooo retro, just WAIT ’til you see them!!!!) and an Eames lounger are scheduled to arrive at the end of the month, along with some A/W collab drops (but not too many, I promise) that I so appreciate you taking care of.

The refrigerator is packed with the good stuff and you’re welcome to borrow whatever you like from my closet while you’re here so go nuts (though maybe not my shoes and def not my top-shelf purses, ’K?). Or anything that takes your fancy from the PR drops, go right ahead too (our little secret).

Just Snap or message Sara if you need anything or have any questions, though idk the time difference in Europe might make things tricky but hey … hope you settle in OK and enjoy being back in NYC!

Courtney XOXO

PS Ignore the crazy old dinosaur next door – guy was so peeved that the co-op let me buy into the building that he spent the ENTIRE YEAR complaining about construction noise! No doubt Sara’s told you all about the stupid lawsuit already. So much for friendly neighbours, huh?)
