I can’t believe January is over this week, I mean time truly does fly the older you get, holy smokes! One of the things I promised myself in 2019 was to really start enjoying more of my city outside of the fashion and food world. A few months ago I was able to attend my first Cocktails & Comedians show at Gingers and from the moment I sat down it was non stop laughter.
Read MoreHappy hour, just like real estate, is all about location. It needs to have good vibes, a tasty menu, festive cocktails, and an epic staff. Cloak & Petal has nailed all the requirements with such ease. Dining at C&P feels like you’re in the center of a contemporary museum and I love it. The Louis Vuitton artwork, cherry blossom trees, and the visually stunning tribute to two of the best rappers show a level of unmatched design work in Little Italy.
Read MoreDeveaux just released its third menswear collection and it’s taking us back in time. This brand is new, but has been on the fashion radar since inception for a variety of reason. What better way to ensure success than to have street style photog extraordinaire Tommy Ton ( if you don’t know him plz Google). The collection seems to be heavily influenced by the late Victorian/ early Edwardian era with a splash of modern functionality.
Read MoreSweater season is in full swing and it’s time to embrace the trend. Go bold with the color, fun prints, or opt for super soft texture. If you are really looking to make a statement find one that encompasses all three. With many designers looking to make room for their spring collection winter luxury is heavily discounted. I was instantly drawn to this pieces because of it’s color and once I touched it I had to have it.
Read MoreLast was the 76th Annual Golden Globes Awards and the stars brought their A-game on the red carpet. The Golden Globes marks the beginning of award season and typically sets the tone. If last night was any indication of what’s to come then get ready! I was gasping with each celeb hitting the carpet showing bold color, intricate details, and doing so while paying homage to old Hollywood.
Read MoreAs a stylist, it’s New Years that is one of the busiest times for me as I get inundated with style revamps. We just survived Christmas and I’m sure most people are trying to recover from spending heavily. That being said I always recommend starting with footwear. Shoes are to an outfit what punctuation is to a sentence. This rings especially true for men’s style and is how I style all my male clients
Read MoreLocals and visitors to the East Village neighborhood can now enjoy sharable plates, draft beer and a lineup of innovative cocktails, all in the cozy confines of WhipHand American Brasserie + Beer Bank. I had a chance to check it out and it’s exactly what was missing in East Village. WhipHand aims to let customers take the experience into their own hands through 24 self-serve draft beers taps, along with a full cocktail bar serving up some unique libations.
Read MoreLet the countdown to 2019 begin! Brace yourself for the hundreds of obligatory “Do Better”, “New Goals”, and “New Me” post on social media. For the past two NYE I’ve found that it’s best to keep it intimate and I plan on keeping that tradition alive this year. Why stand in absurd lines, both to get inside the club and again at the bar once inside, when you can spend that time enjoying those closest to you.
Read MoreI can’t believe we are just 4 days away from Christmas and 10 days away from the New Year. We are in the home stretch of the holiday season and if you’re anything like me, the idea of cooking a huge meal just seems like a daunting and unnecessary task. So this year I’ve decided to let the professionals do the cooking and the dishes
Read MoreIn my never ending quest to bring you the best in dining, I landed in Hillcrest at Hillcrest Brewing Company last week. It just so happen to be pouring rain the one day a year we actually get it, but I’m glad I didn’t let it deter me.
Read MoreThe most wonderful time of the year is upon us! Christmas season is my all time favorite because people seem to genuinely be in a better mood, the seasonal holiday dishes, and I get to layer up my fashion. Aaaaaand if I’m being completely honest I absolutely love a good “Ugly Sweater”.
Read MoreA couple summers ago I managed to spend a week in the beautiful city of New Orleans. It was my first time down there and I immediately fell in love with everything about it. Talk about a city busting at the seams with culture.
