CULT DIVAS Abby and Tori

By Alexandra Stylist | May 28th, 2009

So I was excited to return to the Cooper Square Hotel Rooftop Penthouse as it’s my new ‘hot shit’ place and I was even more elated to attend “THIS IS A HOLD UP!” Hosted by slapstick/improv dramatic diva’s Abby Pope and Tori who are raising money and awareness for their film, ‘The Hunt for Good […]

officially over old skool

By Alexandra Stylist | May 23rd, 2009

I love an old skool DJ. In fact my friend Paulie who is a member of the band Leigh-Ra is an amazing vinyl 80’s DJ in his spare time and graces us with his presence at the PH in the sky. Madonna, Belinda Carlyle, Stereo MC’s, Michael Jackson, and even Tiffany. Hello he’s like amazing […]

Hot shit in the sky

By Alexandra Stylist | May 22nd, 2009

Anyone who lives in New York City knows the value of outdoor drinking during the summer months. I’m over the Empire Roof deck hotel even though they are promoting the hell out of it. Can’t say I was impressed by the ‘terrace’ at the Rivington Hotel (really just a sidewalk). Totally non-plused about the ‘BBQ’ […]

Golf and Scotch

By Alexandra Stylist | May 20th, 2009

Two years ago I was going to Fashion events about 3-4 times a week. I met photographers, makeup artists, hair stylists, publicists, gay fabulous fashionistas, And I wondered why I was single? So since moving into the city I wanted to go in a new direction socially. My favorite hobbies are very girly/independent-horseback riding, swimming, […]

Mad Madonna

By Alexandra Stylist | May 18th, 2009

I was one of those girls who worshiped Madonna in junior high. I played dress up with lace leggings and she was my icon every single day. I’m also one of those who loved her so much could recite her lines from the Will & Grace episode but that’s another blogpost…I am so sad to […]

Stop #2 on my water tripping was Friday afternoon in Japantown San Francisco. I treated my Mom and I to an afternoon at the Kabuki Springs Spa. The Spa is open for women on Sundays, Wednesdays, and Fridays for $22 a person. We hit the timing right and didn’t have to wait to enter. They […]

NEW AND NOTEWORTHY, STYLE DIY,

The Rack Trap?

By Alexandra Stylist | May 9th, 2009

‘Racktrapâ„¢What I find so funny about this product is that someone thought to dream it up (my mother would totally buy this just for shopping at the farmers market) and then I found out about it by Peter Shankman of HARO who was having a hard time pimping it out (because he’s a boy). His […]
