Fly Event: C. Wonder Presents An Evening With Comedian and Author Ali Wentworth and Adam Glassman, Creative Director Of O, The Oprah Magazine

21 Feb

c-wonder-soho-3

Burch vs. Burch. I just read the New York Magazine article about exes and rivals Christopher Burch and Tory Burch and the article states how although Tory Burch might be the more popular of the former couple, Christopher could be a fashion icon within his own right. He recently opened a store in Soho called C.Wonder which might mimic Tory’s peppy style.

Join C.Wonder- to check the similarities of Tory’s store, as they welcome Ali Wentworth (comedian and author) and Adam Glassman of O Magazine for an event of fashion and fun.

The evening will include a Q&A with Adam and Ali, where they will answer questions from shoppers in-store, as well as select questions taken from twitter followers, who tweeted to @CWonderStore #AliandAdam in the days leading up to the event. During the Q&A, Ali and Adam will give the lowdown on must-have spring trends and discuss Ali’s hilarious memoir, Ali in Wonderland. Purchase Ali’s book from the store and get 10% off new spring merchandise.

When: Thu, February 23,5:30 pm – 7:30 pm
Where: C. Wonder, 72 Spring St, New York, NY
Admission: Open

Fly Event: Valentine’s Day Celebration with Bilal @ SOB’s

7 Feb

Bilal Valentine's Day

I had the opportunity to interview Bilal on Valentine’s Day in 2009 while in Washington, D.C., and as I read back on the interview, I remember how much fun he was and how he was just genuine and honest. His down- to- earth personality and genuineness is reflected in his music which is why I am such a huge fan of his. Next Tuesday, Bilal will perform at SOB’s for an intimate Valentine’s Day show.

SOB’s is also offering a couples dinner package, with a three- course meal of deliciousness! Try their grilled ginger lime snapper in a banana leaf with rum glazed sweet potatoes and coconut raisin slaw. The package also includes a bottle of wine, check out the menu in its entirety here.

Bilal + a three-course meal + a bottle of vino = Happy Valentine’s Day!
