Gems of Knowledge



My b.f.f.l.a.e. {best friend for life and evaaah} has jumped on the blogging parade & is making her BIG debut!  Her little spot on the internet is called, "So Whaddya Do?" and it's a fantastic resource for job hunters, career changers and college students.  Lissy reveals the ins and outs of various careers by interviewing those in the know, taking the guesswork out of what's required to get your foot in the door. 

For all you fashionistas, her second interview is with none other than the Rachel Antonoff, who will be showing her new collection later this week!
Lissy's birthday was yesterday, send some birthday love & check out her blog!
Tell her I sent ya!

Business Anna & Evening Anna


I saw this photo on my friend's facebook page & had to steal it immediately.
Not sure if it was Halloween or just a random Tuesday...
Regardless, B&R, your creativity continues to amaze me.
I totally miss my Barnard bitches!

Happy 29th A-Bear!


She's been my best friend for over 18 years...
She's the brunette. I'm the blonde.
She's the shorty. I tower above her.
She's into classical music. I dig everything else.
The yin to my yang,
My best friend.

I love you A.
I hope you had a fabulous day.

p.s. you should know that this pic is from 7th grade, obvs a Bar Mitzvah, I'll let you figure it out.

"our evening began in peter scharro's comfortable study
in his new york townhouse where the candle light
was just right the hifi was in the background
and the wine was delicious..."

Saturdays Are For Dancing!

Yesterday I went to Brooklyn to reunite with old buds for
our annual "Thanksgiving with Friends" soirée.

Drinking started at 11:30am, one thing led to another and by
1pm we were rockin' out on the terrace to Rihanna and Lady Gags.
...AND the whole neighborhood knew it.

Tell me, did you dance this weekend?
