As an Interior Designer, I love being able to find unique small accessories for a hostess gift (I get invited out practically every night!). I met the beautiful Katherine Shenaman at Palm Beach Symphony events, and she has curated a perfect collection of gifts in her shop Callidus. My hosts always love the goodies that I buy for them there. (561) 833-4859, calliduspalmbeach.com
When guests come from out of town, I always suggest that they stay at The Colony Hotel, I had my 2-week honeymoon there which convinced us to move here! As a small boutique hotel, I find it very warm and friendly and it's very accessible to everything since it is right in the center of Palm Beach. In fact, you can usually find me sitting poolside for lunch as it’s a great place to meet my clients. (561) 655-5430, thecolonypalmbeach.com
Life even at the beach can be stressful sometimes, so I call on the local expert Rolfer, James Donatelli. He gets me put back together! I had a damaged knee from skiing while filming my Swedish Christmas special and James was able to fix me up so I could postpone having surgery. (561) 221-7123, Bodyinbalancewc.com
I am a jewelry fanatic, and for big baubles, there is no better place than Graff on Worth Avenue. I have known Diana Salandra for many years from our days working at Cartier in NYC together. Diana is the most knowledgable and sweetest sales person on the Avenue! I also love that Graff helps to support The Norton Museum. Everyone needs to give back to their local community.

As a designer and a realtor, I often find myself in need of a Private Estate Liquidator for my clients. From furniture to estate jewelry to art, there is nobody better than local man Rob Waterhouse to clear out a home. We met on the local charity circuit, and have worked together in many situations. Rob is always honest, reliable and efficient, and his years of work on The Antique Roadshow gives him extra creditability too. (347) 583-7300
