Last night was the opening party of The Mondrian, SoHo. The guest list was murder, but we got in just as the wind was whipping up. Open bar, packed with a veritable who's who of the fashion & social scene of Manhattan, it was like a very swank reunion party. Great way to kick off the summer. Of course, a special apperance by The Kills. I saw them in concert when I first arrived to the city and got my first fashion job. So in a way, The Kills serve as bookends for my fashionable life in NYC. It was strange - I remember feeling so excited to see them when I was younger, and I was much less cool. Now, I have kind of 'made it' in a small sense, and yet, I feel nothing. My friends and I were talking about this - it's the New York effect. Eventually we find a way to complain about even the coolest shit. Like I said, I'm having my next clandestine affair here. It's just such a sexy space. Maybe it was all the men... After a few drinks & photos we braved the insane winds and beating rain to head to the after hours party. I ended up having to walk home in the pouring rain because cabs are near-impossible in a storm like that. Total money spent to rub elbows with the fabulous & get a nice buzz? 1 dollar, for the coat check girl. I take it back...
I love New York.*scorpio*
