Lexington Company Launches 4th Of July-Themed Collection In The Hamptons

In a Hamptons market where inventory remains historically tight, land has taken on a different kind of importance. We all know the adage, “they’re not making any more of it.” And, as far as land listings are concerned, the recently listed parcel at 20 Fieldview Lane, represented by Romaine Gordon and Sarah Minardi, just outside East Hampton Village, is almost unheard of.

After decades as a professional photographer, including a 30-year career in New York City and years photographing for Vanity Fair at Condé Nast, David Vaughan has found his greatest inspiration much closer to home. Today, located at his gallery on Skimhampton Road in East Hampton, he creates striking landscape and seascape photography that captures the quiet beauty, changing light, and natural rhythm of the East End.

This week, as we prepare for July 4th Weekend in the Hamptons, we are joined by Sydney Sadick, founder of Spotlight Magazine, to celebrate five years of building a community-first Hamptons publication that still feels fresh in an Instagram and TikTok world. Sydney shares why she launched Spotlight after years in luxury media, how she thinks about quality and credibility in print, and what it takes to land cover stars who genuinely represent the local scene, including Brooke Shields on the anniversary cover. We also talk luxury lifestyle trends, brand pop-ups, and why some iconic names feel like “everyday” brands in Europe but a true splurge in the U.S.
