Recently, I attended a dinner party hosted by my long time friend, Hope. She’s got a pretty sweet deal living in this outrageously beautiful, historic old farmhouse in our hometown of Westport, Massachusetts. When we all arrived, Hope was baking and the whole house smelled of macaroons–what could be more inviting? On the menu: Hope [...]

On our third day in New York, Tom Bob took us out on a non-fashion-, non-blogging-related excursion. There is nothing like galivanting with a true New Yorker in New York! Someone who knows all the best bars, restaurants, landmarks, art shows, and–in T.B.’s case–has a photographic memory for New York trivia. “This is where Madonna [...]

I’ve been doing some New Year’s-inspired computer organization, and I just found a few shots of this amazing Chanel exhibition I saw at The Met, back in 2005. Of course, photography was strictly prohibited, so I had to be really sneaky and didn’t snap too many! It was a really spectacular exhibit–The lighting and installation [...]

I regard New Year’s Eve as a sort of fashion free for all. The one time of year you’re obliged to wear something sequin-spangled, floor-length, studded in spikes, or generally out-fucking-rageous basically where ever you go.
