The best part though? A couple of new styles have been created specially for the event...including the Bendel (smoky gems and purple rosettes) and the Angelika in purple (rows of purple pleated silk ribbon).

Brand Spankin New


We've found two new nightspots that look like promising alternatives to the same old night out.

Ella –
Named after the great singer Ella Fitzgerald, this new East Village lounge has one of the best vibes in New York. The décor is a spin on Hollywood glamour and the roaring 20s, complete with black, white, and red all over, exposed brick, dramatic chandeliers, and cocktail waitresses dressed as flappers. The cocktail lounge upstairs is sinfully attractive and the downstairs features a mini-stage, DJ booth, and a piano so musicians can jam along with the DJs. The newest project from the owners of Gallery Bar promises to be a good place for a quiet drink with a date, with an option for dancing afterwards of course…or a fun night out with your friends. 9 Avenue A, New York, NY, 10002.

Southside – The club/lounge underneath Bar Martignetti just re-opened after a few months of renovation. The space, formerly known as Bella’s, is now quite sexy and sleek, with a decidedly 80’s disco vibe...as if Bungalow 8 had a slightly grittier twin. The black lacquer tiled DJ booth and palm trees add to the party hearty vibe. Plus La Esquina is open late right next door so if you get partied out you can always refuel with tacos. 406 Broome St., New York, NY, 10013, (212) 680-5600.

Pas de Deux



From the duo that brought us our favorite men’s store, Odin, now comes (finally, thankfully) a sister store, Pas de Deux. So basically, now you can shop a selection of women’s clothing instead of going into Odin and pretending you're buying things for your boyfriend when really you're shopping for yourself...

If you read this blog regularly you know that the East Village/Lower East Side is the location for all of our current shopping obsessions, and with its adorable Parisian styled décor, and its male counterpart still right next door, Pas de Deux is no exception.The collection of associated stores - Odin, Den, and Pas de Deux - makes E. 11th St. the best one-stop block for everything you could ever want to buy.

The girly store features clothing from the likes of Alexander Wang, Karen Walker, Vena Cava, 3.1 Phillip Lim, and Diana Orving. Accessories from hard-to-find brands Comme des Garcons and (our personal favorite) Repetto, are just the icing on the tasty cake and give us real fear that a trip here will leave us flat broke.

Pas de Deux, 328 E. 11th St., nr. Second Ave.; 212-475-0666 (Odin)
