Swaps for clothing & objects have long been an accepted way to give & get. As tariff threats increase $ concerns & weddings become more $, swaps that focused solely on bridal is a logical, financially sound iteration of the shop & share @nytimes

A design guru mirroring a politician running for office, Jason Saft, 48, founder of Staged To Sell Home, greeted everyone warmly, humbled by the turnout & by those who wanted to meet him. That was everyone. @nytimes

It was a scene out of a David Lynch film, just what Shien Lee, owner of Red Pavilion, hoped to accomplish when she created the immersive performance space in March 2023. @nytimes nytimes.com/2025/09/12/reale…
No haircuts or close shaves to be had @ Barbearia Campos, the barbershop that opened in 1886 in the heart of Lisbon’s Largo do Chiado neighborhood. It's closed. But now, you can try on & purchase an array of jewelry from @portugaljewels instead.

In an Ozempic obsessed world, @shafonnemyers has spent the past 15 years bringing awareness, beautification & thoughtfulness to an often forgotten plus size market place, and to the people who inhabit it, which is more than 65%. @nytimes nytimes.com/2025/07/19/fashi…
85% of Emily Strand & Will Christiansen wedding tasks were created, organized & completed thanks to AI. The cake tasting was done in person -- AI can only do so much. It turns out that “so much” is a huge amount. @nytimes nytimes.com/2025/07/12/fashi…
The pinky ring has long had an aristocratic history, worn mostly by men. But today, big bling is appearing on the smallest (and often forgotten) of women’s appendages - the pinky. @nytimes nytimes.com/2025/07/03/fashi…
4 “I dos,” & some “I shouldn’t have,” according to @christiebrinkley, she has remained open to love & undoubtably, an “Uptown Girl.” Her relationships, career, near death experience, motherhood, & her love affair with love are in her new memoir. @nytimes nytimes.com/2025/06/29/style…
Movie bling? For 2 decades, @danaschneiderjewelry, Hunger Games’ Mockingjay pin, has designed over 1,000 pieces of jewelry, for 80 productions -- “The Matrix Reloaded” “The Girl w/ the Dragon Tattoo,” “Game of Thrones” & “Californication.” @nytimes nytimes.com/2025/05/20/fashi…
Meet the Bar Cabinet, the Bar Cart’s Luxe Older Sibling. Yes, I'll drink to that. nytimes.com/2025/04/23/reale… @nytimes
For the current book I’m writing on mortality, I recently landed in Santa Fe, to meet the stones. Not the aging, but somehow still performing “Rolling Stones,” but the rare gray & blue stones that were once the cremains of Mark Cessarich, a 6’1, 64-year-old teacher. @nypost
Hotels & banquet halls were the go-to wedding venues. Now cavernous caves below ground, trippy treehouses above ground, nautical experiences, leaving guests free floating in the middle of the ocean, are. The more obscure a location, the better. @nytimes

For most, the expression “go big or go home,” is a war cry. @jeyperie of @lanoxenyc went small & stayed. Harried NYers might miss this 600sf bar, which holds 30 people, & is reminiscent of a speakeasy, is found inside the subway, 28 St. @ 7Ave. @nytimes

An honor to interview @ojthejuice03 who is changing the way women are seen in the football world, & making sure they get paid to play. In 2019 she founded @wnfcfootball, a for-profit, full-contact women’s professional football league. @nytimes nytimes.com/2025/03/06/busin…
Loved interviewing @Sallynyc pres. & publisher of @littlebrown, the company’s first Asian American woman to hold this position. @nytimes. "I remember pitching a book in a meeting where I wasn’t allowed to speak. I was too junior.” She's not silent anymore. nytimes.com/2025/03/07/books…
