" \u2022 Entertaining in East Hampton: &amp;quot;We like to barbecue and sit at a long candlelit picnic table by the pool. The kids run around playing flashlight tag while the grown-ups linger at the table.&amp;quot;   \u2022 Entertaining in Manhattan: &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s key to put together a great guest list. We always have plenty of fresh flowers and serve comfort food everyone enjoys: risotto, lamb chops, mashed potatoes, chocolate.&amp;quot;   \u2022 Decorating tips: 1. &amp;quot;The easiest way to freshen up a room is a new paint color.&amp;quot; 2. &amp;quot;I update the dining room by finding a fabulous new fabric. I&amp;#039;ll have it made into a tablecloth or just fold a length of it and run it down the center of the table.&amp;quot; 3. &amp;quot;Make the most of children&amp;#039;s artwork. I use terrific frames and paperweights from the Conran Shop to showcase my sons&amp;#039; art.&amp;quot;  \u2022 Flower shops: Zez\u00E9 in Manhattan (&amp;quot;Great for orchids, vases, bowls, and gifts for friends&amp;quot;); and Bridgehampton Florist at the beach (&amp;quot;Beautiful vases, hurricane lamps, and objects&amp;quot;).   \u2022 Shops: In the Hamptons: Mecox Gardens (&amp;quot;Top-notch baskets, lamps, and coral&amp;quot;); the Shell Shop in Sag Harbor (&amp;quot;Where I found the shells in my bathroom, and they have lovely coral objects&amp;quot;); R. E. Steele Antiques (&amp;quot;Packed with goodies\u2014the best resource for chests and cocktail tables&amp;quot;); and Neo-Studio in Sag Harbor (&amp;quot;Amazing lamps and glass pieces&amp;quot;). In Manhattan: Barneys New York (&amp;quot;Especially for throws and glasses&amp;quot;); Bergdorf Goodman&amp;#039;s home floor; Crate &amp;amp;amp; Barrel (&amp;quot;Great simple design&amp;quot;); the Calvin Klein store; John Derian (&amp;quot;Love his napkins, plates, and paperweights&amp;quot;); Anthropologie (&amp;quot;Wonderful style; a sense of fantasy&amp;quot;); Archivia Books (&amp;quot;Amazing vintage and new books&amp;quot;); and Pace Prints.  \u2022 Escapes: Palm Beach (&amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve been going there since I was born. I still check out the fantastic antiques and vintage clothing stores on South Dixie Highway.&amp;quot;); and Paris (&amp;quot;I love floating around Paris. I&amp;#039;m always looking for chandeliers there. I have an obsession with them. But I&amp;#039;ve always said that even if you have no furnishings at all, if you have a chandelier, you can create a special atmosphere.&amp;quot;) For more on Aerin Lauder, click here to tour her Manhattan apartment and Hamptons country house.
