Mansion, Childish Gambino, and Because The Internet
/Childish Gambino is currently on a non-publicized mansion concert tour, appearing only in private homes. If you haven't heard of Childish Gambino, perhaps you've heard of Danny Glover for his role on Community. His new album,Because The Internet, was leaked a few days ago, jumpstarting an already promising tour. Tonight, I was lucky enough to find myself in one of these mansions, wearing one of my favorite accessories, a VIP wristband. Further heightening the sense of exclusivity, guests’ cell phones were confiscated at the door before we were ushered inside the dining room moonlighting as a performance space, where a complete sound and lighting crew had created a full stage for Childish Gambino and his band. Conversing with the excited crowd, I learned that among the invited guests were the first 50 people to buy the album, most of whom had stood outside till 3 am for the privilege. Gambino delighted his fans from moment he took the stage, starting by announcing that the cops had already been called but he planned to sing until they shut it down. The entire performance exceeded my expectations and beyond sold me on his abilities as a performer.

An Urban Gypsy Princess
/Founder of CATiD Kerrin Smith leaves a trail of glitter and inspired similes in her wake, on a grander mission to inspire the masses to be “Cool and Thoughtful,” through her business CATID. She successfully practices a lifestyle of accountability and thoughtful interaction regarding the fashion world as her custom one of a kind shirt brand grows. Kerrin lives and breathes what she preaches, and I had the most amazing tea at the Jane Hotel with the self proclaimed “Urban gypsy princess”. From her glitter half moon mani, down to the lace biker shorts, she has always lived up to the title, looking eternally chic and inspired. But what is CATiD? Kerrin describes it best on her website sighting, “CATiD is a project committed to causing a shift from passive consumerism to responsible global citizenship. Rooted in core principles of recognizing interdependence, being accountable, and valuing peace, CATiD looks to spark a second shift from fashion as a medium of exclusion to a medium of inclusion”.
The brand is growing at an astonishing pace for a young newcomer but I would expect nothing less from someone so committed to making a fashion change. Huge brand collaborations are in the works for this New York Jolie, and I can’t wait to witness the trail of glitter she leaves behind. The first collection of shirts is two shirts away from being sold out on CATid.net’s boutique (link below), and her next line will start production sometime in January. I was lucky enough to get one of the last pieces from the collection, and will forever cherish the hand written tags, custom designed bag, and Harley embellished tee that carries its own story, all documented in its packaging. A special brand and an equally special girl! Get your very own tee here on CATiD

Good Harbor Beach Thatcher Rd Gloucester, MA 01930
/“The jungle is dark but full of diamonds” ― Arthur Miller, Death Of A Salesman
Brrrrrrrrr! As the holidays approach and we all make our way to various locales around the country, I find myself in Gloucester, Mass at the family homestead. Being comfy and chic on the move, calls for one thing in my opinion; cashmere. For todays boardwalk jaunt on Good Harbor Beach, I paired my fav Zara vegan leather pants, with a vintage oversized cashmere sweater, Zara necklace, and go-to Converse Chucks. Minimal packing, maximum comfort. xxx
