I'm a writer based in New York City. 

My latest book, It Girl: The Life and Legacy of Jane Birkin, is out October 2025.

I write for The New York Times, New Yorker, The Guardian, Vanity Fair, New York Magazine, and Vogue among many, many other places.

My newsletter, Soft Power, explores topics like: What should I buy in a pharmacy in Paris? Can I wear blue eye shadow if I have memories of the 1980s? What laser should I try first? Is it weird to rent a bathtub? And much more.

My goal is to be more like my bulldog Joan, who sleeps 22 hours a day, so I started teaching restorative yoga classes. Come and take one with me at Sky Ting.
