“Believe it or not, after you’ve weekended in Paris for years, it can get dull, even when you have a lovely pied in the Seventh Arrondissement. So my wife, Anne, and my 13-year-old son, Harrison, decided we needed a road trip. Biarritz, the surfing hot spot in the French Basque region near the Spanish border, had history for Harry, shopping for Anne, and a hotel we would love. We rented a Mercedes-Benz GLK320–their new, smaller SUV–to handle all those winding cliffs.”
–Mario Grauso, the “insatiable globe-roamer” (who presumably spends some time running Vera Wang’s business) in his “Jet-Setter” column in December Elle
The latest episode of Chic Report TV has arrived! Check it out as we catch up with ALL the past CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winners–and find out what the new hottest parties in town are. Until next week!
If Derek Blasberg calls and wants to discuss les sujets XXX, it’s all in the name of journalism–we swear. The social scribe is reporting a piece on recessionary sex and several haute types have been approached for comment. (Jack? Lazaro? Chic can dream.)
Ivanka Trump enjoyed an evening at the movies last night during the Cinema Society premiere of New Moon, but there was no Mr. Kushner hooked to her shoulder. Where was hubby Jared? He was also taking in a show…at the Armory for the Victoria’s Secret Angel Show. Sorry, Ivanka…the Angels called!
Andrew Bevan is perennially adorable. At last night’s Cinema Society screening, he reminded Chic of one of our other favorite characters–the legendary Fred Flintstone.
Yes, it’s true that La Lopez has named her new single “Louboutin.” Turns out that the love is mutual–the designer himself dined with Jennifer on Tuesday night in New York to discuss the pair of shoes that he is designing for her American Music Awards performance on Sunday, November 22. You know which song she’ll be singing…
This photo of Terry Richardson and Eniko Mihalik doesn’t require much explanation. The tatted photog and Hungarian model enjoy a suggestive snack (au naturale) for the 2010 edition of the infamous Pirelli calendar….
We try to mix things up here at Chic Report with our best dressed du jour, but you can’t argue with Jessica Stam. The model takes our top title for the second day in a row in an all gray ensemble–this time, by Gareth Pugh.
Missoni has gone cute and cuddly! The Italian brand has released a series of bears, rabbits, puppies and other fuzzy critters in the form of plush toys and keychains available at colette. Who knew a moose could look so good in Missoni?
