ON THE AVENUE

 

L’Avenue, the hottest spot in Manhattan, is located in an unlikely venue: perched atop the iconic Saks Fifth Avenue. Much like its designer, Philippe Starck, it is something that’s unexpected, as are the two-floor spaces overlooking Rockefeller Center with some of the best views and social scene in the city.

BE THE HOSTESS WITH THE MOSTEST

 

Show off your true glamorous style at your small group entertaining events this holiday season by wearing an Haute Hostess apron. The company, founded by Elizabeth Scokin, has been a hit with the Jet Set crowd for years. So, don one like this Chrissy model, which has a coral sash with gold and silver trim. There are dozens of styles to choose from–enough to buy one for every special occasion. Starting at $120, as shown. At HauteHostessHome.com.

LIKE A VIRGIN

The new Virgin Hotel in Dallas offers more to Texas that we are loving, including the new rooftop scene that is plenty ample for correct social distancing these days. With reservations, you’ll feel on top of the world with an unparalleled poolside view of the city, beyond its swanky rooms and restaurants for the state’s metropolitan lives. At VirginHotels.com

PHOTO OPPORTUNITY

The best place for a selfie these days in the artful city of Houston might be the new House of Cards installation at Discovery Green. The public-art piece by Israel-based design studio OGE Group consists of 126 oversized playing cards, each of which features a unique piece of artwork. At DiscoveryGreen.com.
