The {Chelsea} Life featuring Marni Salup

I love the balance of my friend Marni Salup’s New York lifestyle! A neighborhood she loves, a walk-up apartment with tons of character, a PR company she founded herself, and the healthy discipline and strength of a triathlete. Through her PR work she secured a recent feature for Maria Brito in Elle Magazine – an example of how women can help each other succeed, adding value to each other’s lives by celebrating and empowering each other and sharing in our journey of parenting, careers and being our strongest selves!

Marni is inspiring in so many ways! Naturally, I had to ask her to sit down and talk with me about her exciting life in Chelsea and what she loves most about living in New York…

Experiencing Old New York at the Carlyle with Great Girlfriends

Living in NYC is a never ending discovery of new hot spots, but along with that there are “old New York” spots where you can truly enjoy a night out and step back in time. As my dear friend Bianca Pratt would say, “Don’t you enjoy experiencing old New York at this bar?” Bemelmans Bar at the Carlyle Hotel is a cozy old New York…

This season, I’ll post a new style board each week, sharing some of my favorite pieces with you, from the casual to the formal…

The {Foodie} Life: Dinner at Iron Chef Morimoto’s Tribeca Canvas Restaurant

Last night I had an amazing dinner at a new favorite spot, Tribeca Canvas. Directed by Iron Chef Morimoto, the well-priced menu features American cuisine with an Asian twist. My favorites were the shrimp nachos, the insanely delicious sea bass, and my friend Rogeria had the steak! We also shared a bottle of my favorite Malbec (Riglos Gran Malnec 2010). The decor is beautiful and I love having a place like this in Tribeca! That’s just what I told Chef Morimoto during our brief chat…

Agenda: March in Manhattan

I love Spring in Manhattan! The streets start to thaw and the best of the city’s events appear on my calendar. One of my favorites of the year is The Armory Show, a showcase of the world’s very best artists. Saint Patrick’s Day and Easter also add to the month plenty of chances for family fun. Here are the events that should be on your agenda this month…

The Meatpacking District Evolves, Loses High Fashion Retailers

Recent trends in style and Real Estate show that The Meatpacking District, still a popular destination for brunch, shopping and clubs, is losing its appeal to the high fashion designers. Starting with the opening of Jeffery in 1999, then Pastis, a few clubs and swanky lounges like APT, the Meatpacking District had quickly become the talk of the town. Soon high-end designers like Alexander McQueen, Stella McCartney, Moschino, Matthew Williamson and La Perla were opening large downtown-cool boutiques to cater to downtown chic shoppers.

Food Chain: What You Don’t Know About Our Fruits and Vegetables

Food Chain is a film by Eric Schlosser (Food, Inc., Fast Food Nation) and director Sanjay Rawal (Challenging Impossibility) that explores the exploitation of farm workers in the agriculture industry in the United States, the complicity of government and corporations in perpetuating human rights abuses and the role consumers can play in ending some of the most egregious human rights violations within our borders. Our fruits and vegetables are grown and gathered by workers who are underpaid (wages equal cents on the dollar!) and who are bought and sold like slaves…

City Mommy Life: The Best Days

Being a city mommy has its own challenges and rewards. There are days I claim a “total success” when I can drop my kids off to school, pick them up and do homework with them and contribute towards playtime while negotiating deals for my clients and showing the hottest properties in the city, and fit in a workout. However, not every day is the perfect city mommy or real estate life day…
