With the occasion approaching, it was appropriate for her to create a large coffee-table book filled with her favorite shoots from the last decade. I was thrilled to attend an intimate cocktail party this week honoring the debut Harper’s Bazaar:

I recently read in the New York Times an article called “9/11 in the Arts: An Anniversary Guide.” It’s the most comprehensive list of events I’ve seen related to the 10-year anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

So many essentials to carry with you, but you don’t want to be loaded down? I consistently had this issue, until I sat next to a very nice couple one day for lunch at The Standard bar. They both plopped down these clever iPhone cases on the counter, facing down, and the sleekness immediately caught

A little over five years ago, I had the pleasure of meeting one of the finest girls I know while interning at Harper’s Bazaar magazine. Her name is Christina Pryor, and she is such a gem who brings out the best qualities in everyone she meets. Recently, she took a fabulous trip to Istanbul, Turkey

New Yorkers are infamous for their mass exodus on summer weekends to their favorite beach haunts. If you happen to be in Nantucket this weekend (or ACK), I hope you planned ahead for what is coming up this Saturday night!… The Soiree Committee is presenting the 4th annual Summer Soiree to benefit the Nantucket Boys

When my younger brother, Worth, called and said “Hey! I’m thinking about coming to visit you in New York this weekend. Is that cool?” Of course, I said….YES! I have barely seen Worth this past year with him studying abroad in Africa and this was a perfect weekend for me to host him. My excitement

I recently met up for a lunch date with my good friend, Anne Laurence, who just returned from a trip to France with her family. As she was describing

The Hamptons. A New Yorker’s staple for escaping the city on summer weekends. But, who says you have to go for the entire weekend? Why can’t you just escape for the day? Oh yes, you heard me correctly… Luckily, my friend Tom was recently visiting the city, and shares similar spontaneous qualities as I do…he
