Kim Kardashian’s ex Kris Humphries arrived to the hopping Betsey Johnson after party last night at Stone Rose — but only for a hot second.

That didn’t stop Johnson from celebrating: The 69-year-old sipped champagne and danced throughout the evening.

New hotspot Red Egg might be too cool for it’s own good.

We hear that the line outside Phillip Lim’s after party snaked around Centre St. by 11 p.m.

No Comments »

As Im sure youve figured out, Im a sucker for greens, blues and purples. Even before I became the full fledged polish fanatic that I am today, those were always the shades I gavitated to. I grew up in a purple bedroom with purple shag carpet that remained until my parents moved 12 years ago. For the majority of my life the only jewelry I wore contained my birthstone, emerald. And my first car was a white convertible with slate blue leather. Ive had two electric blue cars since.

So you can imagine my joy when I laid eyes on the Zoya True nail polish collection for Spring 2012.

Happy New Year! 2012 I’m So HAPPY To See You

No Comments »

Happy 2012 Fanatics! I hope your NYE was fun, safe and free of any regrettable actions (drunk texts, hangovers, etc). Mine was relatively low key spent with good friends and enjoying an amazing meal with the boyfriend.

I, for one, was ready to watch the door hit 2011 as it left and am embracing 2012 with welcome, open arms.

How I want to kick off its 5th year. Thats right, ALU turns FIVE today. Crazy, right?
