The Morgan Library is a gem I discovered from a subway poster on the L train–thanks MTA! Initially the personal library of finance mogul JP Morgan, the Morgan Library has evolved into an artistic venue that will stimulate any history buff to the fullest and is currently housing the Mark [...]

On a brisk fall day, my boyfriend and I decided to do something cultural in NYC. Our first stop was the Ellis Island Ferry in Battery Park. There were swarms of tourists everywhere in white sneakers wearing their I LOVE NYC t-shirts (something that makes me cringe) all standing in line for the [...]

Whether you are a NYC resident or visiting, my recommendation for a peaceful morning is exploring the Williamsburg Bridge. What is more charming than a bird’s eye view of the Manhattan skyline? As you walk along, listen to the J and M subway rattle its way from one borough to the next. From [...]

I am not afraid to admit that I am a Deadhead, so when I heard that The New York Historical Society was hosting an exhibition this summer of artifacts from the forty plus years of The Grateful Dead’s career, I was ecstatic. I decided that the most appropriate time to visit the museum was [...]

This month I had the opportunity to experience Target’s First Sunday’s at The Brooklyn Museum. I attended the opening of Andy Warhol’s: The Last Decade and as someone who is a sucker for Mr. Warhol, it was quite an evening. My favorite pieces of his career, which can be seen at the museum, [...]

Gentlemen, just because it is cold outside doesn’t mean your fashion sense has to suffer. Put aside all the bulky footwear and puffy coats and replace them with an ultra glamorous pair of forest green Dunhill alligator skin boots and sleek jackets. Ok, maybe these items won’t make it [...]

On long flights there’s nothing I hate more than the itchy blankets that the airline gives you. I want to wrap myself in something fashionable as well as comfortable while sleeping on the plane. As a connoisseur of blankets, my new obsession is Damien Hirst’s New Religion series blankets. Made in Scotland [...]
