R.I.P AMY WINEHOUSE


My little sisters Swiyyah and Veronica Blahnik put me on to Amy back in 2003 when she came out with Frank. I was truly amazed at the talent she was, there is not a song on that album that I don't love. She is in constant rotation with Mary J. Blige, Anita Baker, Brany, Kelly Price, Floetry, Faith, Tank and so many other talents that I adore. You Sent Me Flying, Amy you will be truly missed! I'm pumping Frank right now, check out one my all time favorites from Amy!

BATHTUB GIN


Behold Bathtub Gin, an invisible-to-the-naked-eye cocktail lounge that’s sealed behind an unassuming coffee shop wall, discreetly and quietly opening tonight.

To find this place, you’ll first need to seek out a nearly microscopic Chelsea coffee shop (it’s the one with the mini bathtub in the window). Don’t let the perfectly frothed cappuccinos and incredibly lifelike (okay, they’re real) pastries fool you. This place is a front. Lurking just beneath the surface: a shadowy gin joint/jazz-playing safe house.
So you’ll come here when your thirst for a Negroni becomes insatiable or your recent dalliances have forced you out on the lam. Once inside, you’ll see a false wall with a red light above it. That’s your door. That’s where you make your scene. When the light’s illuminated, you may enter.

Life on the inside: exactly how you imagined it’d be... circa 1920. There’s a copper-colored ceiling, fringe-covered lamps, nailhead-tucked bar stools and—smack-dab in the center of the room—a glass-covered, claw-foot bathtub.

For now, you’ll use said tub to balance your gimlet and fried oysters, but rent the place for a private party, and they’ll let you take the top off.

Sometimes bathtubs just need to breathe.

THE NEW WALL ST. DUANE READE IS HUGE!



The ginormous Duane Reade that opened today at 40 Wall Street looks to be everything that was promised and possibly more. An anonymous tipster—who was clearly sent from heaven and quite skilled with clandestine Blackberry photo-taking—was so moved by the Duane Reade that he decided to share these photos with the world. This self-proclaimed "jaded" tipster even likened the experience to "more like being at Barneys". Seriously.
