Coco

I finally saw COCO BEFORE CHANEL and oh my gosh I loved it so much. I smiled like an idiot through the whole thing. If you haven't seen it, try to catch it before it's out of the theaters. Love love love.

Give a Goat

This is my dad's goat Raisin. Give someone in need a goat for Christmas at Heifer.

Goat
Goats Are Great for Families

The gift of a dairy goat represents a lasting, meaningful way for you to help a little boy or girl on the other side of the world.

Goats can thrive in extreme climates and on poor, dry land by eating grass and leaves. The gift of a dairy goat can supply a family with up to several quarts of nutritious milk a day - a ton of milk a year. Extra milk can be sold or used to make cheese, butter or yogurt. Families learn to use goat manure to fertilize gardens.

Goats often have two or three kids a year making it easy for Heifer recipients to pass on the gift of a goat to another family in need. This great investment allows our partners to lift themselves out of poverty by starting small dairies that earn money for food, health care and education.

Tim Burton at MOMA So fun.

Best thing about the NADA art fair

The venue, the late 50's Deauville Beach Resort in North Miami Beach. It was the right combination of decadence and art.

Three favorites at Miami fair

Artist Wade Guyton at Friedrich Petzel Gallery booth

Artist Reena Spauling's marble surf board at Reena Spaulings Fine Art booth
Artist Richard Phillip's Most Wanted series at White Cube booth

Aaron Young at work

While in Miami, Bortolami Gallery invited us to see Aaron Young burning rubber. He is well known for this work, but to see them being produced is pretty rad. Both works were bought on-the-spot by collectors. To see more of Aaron's work click here.

Color as Art, Art as Furiture

I recently saw a beautiful table filled with ultramarine blue pigment by Yves Klein and it reminded me of Elizabeth Paige Smith's (slightly) more affordable "Blow" tables.

eBay! Popup! Store!

I just stopped by the Ebay Pop-Up Store on 57th Street (and 5th Ave) to visit Zem from Eco Fabulous.

New York – eBay today opened its first pop-up store, a 5,500-square-foot shop in midtown Manhattan dubbed “eBay @ 57^th St.” Located at 57^th Street and 5^th Avenue, the store offers samples of 400 products, which shoppers then purchase online from eBay sellers using touch-screen kiosks or eBay’s iPhone app. eBay’s trend experts will be in-store to offer advice, and eBay will have personal shoppers on hand as well.

The store also will feature on display one-of-a-kind items including from designers and celebrities that will be sold to benefit charity. In addition, all online purchases made at the pop-up shop will be matched dollar-for-dollar by eBay, up to $200,000.

The store will operate through Nov. 29, although it will be closed on Thanksgiving Day. Hours 10 a.m. – 7:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Sundays.

On Black Friday, Nov. 27, doors will open at 7 a.m.

Racey!

I love DAG.

I saw an amazing play on Broadway last night. "Race" is written and directed by David Mamet and stars James Spader, Kerry Washington, Richard Thomas and David Alan Grier. The play is a dramatic exploration of a case about the rape of an African American woman. Race comes into play between the accused and accuser, the client and lawyers, and between the lawyers themselves. Ultimately it was a brilliant study on how we behave and why when it comes to race. GO SEE IT!

Central Park

On Saturday I discovered the Central Park Conservatory Garden. It's so beautiful...definitely check it out.105th street and Fifth Ave.
