Grand opening event at Hotel Chantelle co-hosted by BlackBook. A brand new rooftop bar to enjoy Summer nights in the Lower East Side.

Miss you, bodyguard!

Sponsored by my favourite beer, Heineken. Open bar drained the regular so we moved on to lights.

Oh Susie.

Secret garden vibe.

Orchids installed under table tops.

Wide open deck.

Death Mickey.

Some bro was hating on top buns. In the sweltering Manhattan heat, we had to represent. Team Top Bun!

Celebrating Pride Week at American Apparel’s Chelsea store!


Happy customers


Party on the street. We had the best music on the block.

Congrats to New York for passing equal marriage rights!


Get your own Legalize Gay items. There are still so many states that are not supportive of equal marriage! Come on America!


HAPPY PRIDE!!

Ashes // by Jeremy Dyer will be up at Occulter from now until July 3rd.


Stylist Carrie Weidner at the opening.

Landscape archival prints “seen through a texture of skin, ash and the blackened fuzz of a violent guitar…”

The artist, Jeremy Dyer, and friends.

Crowd spilling out on to the streets.

Keeping cool with complimentary black mezcal laced snow cones.

Chris Reed purveying the prints on sale.

Izzy Tuason [The Dandy Project] and his printed dance shoes.

Love these earrings made by her own mum. Tiny cogs and micro machinery parts.

OMG it’s 33 degrees out.


Or 93 degrees.
Depends on how backasswards non-metric-systemic American you are.
Glasses of ice cold ice and nearly cold cold cuts. Summer, eh?

Here we are, waiting for the rapture. What started as a sunny Saturday in Manhattan, started getting all kinds of scary. Luckily, we heathens managed to avoid all the rain and wrathiness with our perfect timing.

Tony Leung swagger

Teeny-tiny salt and pepper shakers

Waiting for our brunch to be served at Paprika in East Village.

Eggs Benny for me, of course.


Rocky got the only frothy mimosa. Foammmmmmmm.

Emma and Joy.

Parallel to the dance parade on St. Mark’s. Hella Bolivian dancers.

Look it’s me as a hat.

Figured if we were gonna die, might as well die happy.

AT SHAKE SHACK! Shack stack burger. Love love love me the portabello and cheese deep fried oh yes oh yum die die die.

We survived. Rocky & Bullwinkle <3 <3.

SAVED! Sunshine in Central Park. How’s that for judgement day?

Ben Sherman launched their charity endeavour, Very Important Plectrums, at the Gramercy theatre last night.
Very much liked the hashtag.


Plectrums by various artists will be auctioned off starting on May 29th to raise money in support of Lifebeat, a music industry lead HIV/AIDS protection awareness group.


Vodka cocktails complimentary of Svedka

They had a showcase of some of the original guitar picks on set. Coldplay, The Kooks, Oh Land etc.

Concerts to be held in New York, London, and Berlin.

Lou, Liz, and Yvonne.

100% of proceeds from the plectrum auctions to go to charity.

Graffiti6, DJ Josh Madden, and Talib Kweli performed.



Antwan and I. Look who snuck in the back!

Diesel showcased their feminine, make-up inspired Summer collection at their Lexington & 60th store.

Fresh colours, bleached splatters, and ‘The Jean that Kate Middleton Wore’.
Every girl knows you’ve got to try on at least a dozen pairs (if not more) before you find the right one. Pretty PR girls, fashion editors, and bloggers had loads of fun testing out fits and washes.

Susie G trendstarting the dropped-crotch pinstripe jeans for the evening.

Patrick, Diesel’s denim buyer, was on hand to help us with our picks.

Make Up Forever gave mini-makeovers to complement the denim line’s cosmetics influences.

I fell for their intense orange lippy.

Cory Kennedy brought along friends and caught up with Nylon editor, Dani Stahl.

The pair I picked, ‘Hushy’. Light, light wash with pastel water-coloured streaks. Reminds me of a rainbow sno-cone.

Approval from Dani, the event’s star stylist, rocking her distressed aqua Diesels.

I tweeted “Am I ashamed or amazed at how quickly I pulled together a prom look from my closet? ”

Mallory and Bianca of Small Girls PR ended their 30 day prom-dress-a-thon for Tiza.com with a super adorable real life for adults prom at The Standard’s Le Bain.

Who doesn’t like prom? I LOVE PROM.


With my too-cool-rule-the-school date, Susie G and Mr. Dandy Project, Izzy.


The Standard’s staff babes. Love their Sailor Striped uniforms!

Prom princess and priestess.

Deuces.
