RITZ CARLTON, NAPLES, A Cheeseburger in Paradise

Relaxing at The Ritz, Naples

Billy and I enjoy lunching at the Ritz Carlton, Naples, (the one on the beach) -we have two- and here's yours truly striking a pose in a hall off the main lobby...

Purple petunias, Ritz Carlton, Naples

Potted flowers are everywhere, as well as orchids galore, and a rose garden fronting the spa...

A view from the Gumbo Limbo

Our favorite is the outdoor restaurant, Gumbo Limbo, facing the beach and the gulf....cheeseburgers are fab, and the salads are good too...and of course the specialty cocktails!

A view from the boardwalk out to le plage

My ikat/tie dye shirt is Ralph Lauren, belt and trousers are Banana Republic, and mules are Nike, watch is classic Rolex oyster.
It's Spring, enjoy it!  DF *****

P.S. I saw the new film this weekend, "The Boss" and surprise! Kathy Bates was in it!  Hilarious!

Coco at the Ritz



Imagine staying in this elegant CHANEL suite at the Paris Ritz ! Certainly, we all should be able to do this at least once in our lifetimes. I love the baroque scale, the palette, and the overall sense of elegant simplicity. What say you? Do you love it as much as I do? Let me know! Your comments are welcome! And please do see my earlier post on Madame Coco, (April 2011) entitled "Room of the Week: Paris". Enjoy! DF ******P.S. Check out the new Peak of Chic Entertains, it's GREAT!
