Now maybe I’m being a diva, but I am getting so sick of bottomless brunches with horrible quality food. If I’m going to eat out, I don’t want it to be an absolute waste of my money. So let’s make a pact to eat GOOD brunches from now on, ok? […]

The Best & Worst Dressed from the 2016 Critics’ Choice Awards
The 22nd Annual Critics’ Choice Awards were this weekend and the blue carpet was full of fashion. The big winner of the night was the new musical La La Land, but not all of the style choices were as successful. Here is a look at the biggest hits and misses of the […]
A Reason to Cross the River: Evening Star Cafe
I’m going to keep this short simple: VIRGINIA IS NOT THAT FAR AWAY. Hop in an uber, grab a car, or metro across the river (heck you can even bike), and you will expand your dining options ten-fold…And then you will be disappointed that you didn’t do it sooner. Of […]
The Best and Worst Dressed of the 2016 American Music Awards
The American Music Awards were on television last week and the red carpet fashion did not disappoint. Now, the AMA’s are not exactly the Grammy’s but they are an easy indication of whether you are seriously out of touch with Pop music (who were half of these people?). This year […]
Guide to DC’s Thanksgiving Sandwiches, Because Leftovers Should Never End
from the archives… The first Thanksgiving I can really remember was typically anticlimactic. My dad had to work, his girlfriend was on a diet where carbs were declared the anti-Christ, and I had just lost my Gameboy privileges for neglecting to feed my goldfish (RIP Gilbert). After a day spent […]
Maketto + Sweetgreen Know How to Throw a Party
Many parents say to their children, “you can be whatever you want to be when you grow up” (And no, I am not trying to start some political reference, but just go with it). Well if Erik Bruner-Yang (chef and restauratuer) is the parent, then Maketto is the child. Maketto is […]
The Highlights of Milan Fashion Week’s Spring 2017 Collections
Fashion Month has officially ended for the Spring/Summer 2017 collections, but my recap of the runways is still strutting. We started our journey in New York City, then we conquered London, but before we culminate in iconic Paris, I am here to highlight Milan Fashion Week. Milan is essentially known as […]
Stop What You Are Doing, Go to Sally’s Middle Name
Sally’s Middle Name was nothing like I expected. Not because I had low expectations, but because it blew me out of the water. Seriously, every aspect of my evening was so thoughtful and creative. From the drinks to dinner to dessert to the service, it was exceptional. Why did I […]
Mythology is H Street’s Hot New Spot
Todd Luongo was doing something right when he envisioned Mythology, one of the newest restaurants on H Street. And lucky me, I had the pleasure of enjoying this magical restaurant last week. When you walk in, you are immediately in awe of the decor itself, a mythological themed oasis (I mean, […]
Bad Saint – Worth the Wait?
I arrived to Bad Saint at 3:45pm for dinner – yes, 3:45pm. And after waiting until its 5:30pm opening, I almost didn’t get a table for the first seating. Following Bon Appetit’s article that named Bad Saint the second Best New Restaurant in America, I am by no means surprised. This […]
London Fashion Week Spring 2017: The Best Runway Collections
As Fashion Week season continues, the next stop on the fashion marathon is London! London Fashion Week is a much smaller affair than its predecessor New York Fashion Week. There are far less shows (around 60 runway shows compared to New York’s 200). The big London based brands are always present, […]
Movie Review: The Girl on the Train is a Must See!
I had the pleasure of attending an early screening of The Girl on the Train on Wednesday evening (thanks Cloture Club)! I read the book earlier this year and I have been anxiously awaiting the movie premiere ever since. While I am always hesitant to compare a movie to the […]
