& She Rested on the Seventh Day
Anyone catch that Genesis reference? That’s pretty much the only thing I absorbed from CCD besides learning that leprosy makes your hands fall off, a fact I believed fully until I was 16.  Anyway getting back to the post, I’m pretty busy throughout the week. After spending the day at work on my feet most of the day running around the office, the store and between the two, I get home...

What's in my Swag Bag
“Swag” as in Stuff We All Get, not swag. Psht, please. If you’ve been reading my blog, you’ll know that I briefly mentioned in my last post that sometimes I am bestowed an extra event gift bag (no guest leaves Bergdorf’s empty handed. What are we, peasants?). This past week we had two cocktail events. The first, for dress designer CD Greene and New Yorkers for...

Recent Subjective Dining Experiences
I’ve eaten out a lot recently, so now I’m back to that refrigerator grind - where my domestic divas at? anyone? Anyway, some places that have served me recently:   Tina’s  It’s hard to find quality food at reasonable prices in midtown so this place brought a big sigh of relief, I can continue to believe in humanity above 14th st again. Phewf! This place was so...

PR Glossary: Black
In short: it’s whatchu wear. Luckily I’ve had a good amount of freedom in terms of my work wardrobe, as seen from some images I’ve posted here. There are some events that we’ve hosted, however, when I have been requested to wear all black. It’s an easier way to see who is in charge of the event in case of emergencies - from there is no way I’m not on the guest...

My New York world consists of Manhattan and Brooklyn.I have been fortunate enough to visit Bk (that’s how we new yorkers abbreviate it, yeah wut) thrice in the past week.  I’ll now illustrate stories through my instagrammed photos: Jon, Julia and I got to watch and bartend for a few performances at Our...

6 Semi-Impossible Things I Want For My Birthday...
So, my birthday is at the end of this month- the 28th, thanks for asking. In recent years, I have become a birthday celebration simpleton. Last year I had a small dinner with school friends at a rodeo/mexican themed restaurant in STL (their choice). The year before I… went to a frat party? Oy vey, oh I also gave myself a sharpie peace sign wrist tattoo that night #glamour. So, friends and...

PR Glossary: Press Clip
Even though most of my friends are now on spring break, learning NEVER stops, am I right??  So listen up. Today we learn about press clips. “What’s that”, you say? Oh I will tell you. Imagine all the print and online press coverage BG gets- topics ranging from recent events, store windows, merchandise, our staff, new projects and pretty much anything in-between. If our name is...

Yogis 'n Spinsters
Recently I’ve hopped on the express train to Healthville choo choo! So I’ve been exercising more. This week I’ve been to a couple yoga classes and a spin class and doing each so close to the other (time-wise) has given me a lot to think about.  Side note: I haven’t been this sore since I “did” track freshmen year of high school. That spin teacher was not...
