I'm so excited to share a new project that launched today: a collaboration between Williams Sonoma Home and The George, the hotel my husband and I own in Montclair, New Jersey. The hotel has been a true passion project for us. We developed it bringing our teams together to create a uniquely stylish, comfortable, and pet-friendly boutique hotel.
The building was in rough shape when we started, but my husband and his team revitalized and modernized it while preserving its historic charm. My team then contributed to the design elements—everything from paint colors and flooring to furniture and guest touchpoints. Every room features thoughtful details like Dyson hairdryers, plush white robes, Casper mattresses and sheets, Casper dog beds, a candy closet, and Nespresso machines and more.
So when Williams Sonoma approached us about a creative project, we couldn’t resist. Their CMO had stayed at The George several times and fell in love with the blend of British flair, humor, and comfort that defines the hotel. We set out to design products that are both stylish and practical—garbage cans, picture frames, mirrors, pillows, drapes, blankets, and even games inspired by what you’d find in The George’s library. Many pieces incorporate The George's signature red and navy colors.
Some of my favorite items in the collection include bold striped pillows inspired by tuxedo pants—a style I love, whether on jeans or dress pants. You'll also see a lot of vibrant, crisp colors and a beautiful needlepoint pillow that resembles Biggie, our mascot, who was there for The George’s grand opening. We have elegant leather frames in navy with red stripes, leather trays to organize letters, and on the desk, you might find a Jones Road or The George candle (which doubles as a chic pencil cup once it’s burned out).
There are also leather trays and a stunning lamp from the Williams Sonoma collection. Check out all the products at Williams Sonoma Home—there’s so much more to explore!
Hoping I'm able to stay there one day when I'm on the East Coast (family is in PA). I love the attention to detail you outline. It's so on brand with who you are.
And I'll definitely take advantage of both the candy closet and the Nespresso coffee maker!
This is so so incredible ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
