DangeRuss and Danimal on da loose AGAIN! Who let us out of our cage?
I mean, all we do is get in trouble. We throw in a little networking, support our friends at events, and we drink a whole lot! But then again, who the hell doesn’t? And if you say, “Not me!”, you lying! That said, here are some examples of the trouble we cause, the scenes we cause, and the people we see while out and about:

Gen Art Shop NYC Event. What a zoo! Great prices on great goods, a birth control lounge, hair touch ups,etc. It was a sight to behold, all these people, all these goods, and all the people again! WOW! We get clostro!
We couldn’t take it! We needed a really stiff…cocktail! We headed over to G Lounge to see hot Patrick, the beautiful bartender, and the rest of the crew there. Jerry Beersdorf and Stephen Keefe from MAC Cosmetics were on hand for cigarettes and general giggles and feel good times! We left there, did a quick disco change (it was HUMID AS HELL out, and we sweat straight through our couture ensemble!), and headed to…ooooooh Barracuda! James Roy from Garren Salon, and Steven Bonamasso, Bergdorf Goodman’s mens window stylist, met up with us there. Yum!

After SEVERAL cocktails, and a couple hours later, (It was 2 for 1, what the hell!), we stumbled to Employees Only in the West Village. One of our fave spots, they have an exquisite cocktail list, and the staff is so amazing! It was PACKED, we were hammered, the music was great, and we plopped our tipsy asses down for an Amalia (vodka, elderflower liqueur, blackberry puree,and fresh mint). Rachel happened to be working that night!! Lucky us! We absolutely adore her!
Barely able to stand up, we had to call this night a wrap!

Betsey Johnson’s 30th Anniversary party. Betsey Johnson is an legend in the NYC fashion scene. Her antics on the runway are known worldwide, and the gal can turn a mean cartwheel! She is animated, youthful, and girly rock and roll!

and ofcourse Patrick McMullan’s crew. Seen below is David, who is on the other side of the camera this time! Raow!
Thanks for the watch and fragrance, Betsey! My niece is in love with it! We left there, popped by our regular Thursday night haunt to see DJ Lina at Gorgeous/G Lounge. There we drank our faces off and decided it was time for a disco change. We headed to Norwood Club for a nightcap and then headed home. No photos from Norwood. Thank god!

Freshpair.com founded and hosts National Underwear Day, a huge event to celebrate underwear! And you know we love some hot guys in their drawers! Lydia Hearst was the celeb host, and she was a vision. James, Danny, Muzzy and I went to check it out, and the debauchery ensued! Pictured below with the handsome president of Freshpair.com, Michael Kleinmann, Lydia Hearst, and a very hot and tattooed Tyson Beckford.
Also on hand was designer Marc Bouwer, and Heatherette designer Richie Rich.
We left the overcrowded event and headed to a local haunt where a friend works, Ritz, in Hells Kitchen. Couple cocktails later, we headed to Bungalow 8 for the afterparty for National Underwear Day. It was a zoo, until the queens all headed to Beige. A veritable who’s who (and who wants to be who) was there. Amy Sacco (who looks AMAZING, btw!), Adam Patrizia-Departures, Mark Silver-Factory PR, Nicole Fiscella-Gossip Girls, The Countess LuAnn-Real Housewives of NYC, Suede-Project Runway, Jason Scarlotti-2(x)ist, just to name a few. It was a festive, albeit hardcore drunken, evening!

We were working on a shoot for Issue 4, the Boulevardier. Off we went, with 5 garment bags of clothes (courtesy of Rodney E. Hall) , and numerous shopping bags, which btw, in the heat, ain’t that fun! We headed to MAO PR to dress, hair, make up, etc. So fun! David Tibolla was beating our faces, Bradley Irion was tearing up the weaves, and we were ready to go for our close up with Arnaldo, our fab photog!
Below is a preview!

The week was nearly done, and we had one last event to attend. We went to HK Lounge in Hells Kitchen for BASKIT Underwear’s show and party. It was a strange week full of super hot guys, making us all look fat, and totally out of nowhere, but alas, it was fun! The place was packed, courtesy of Len Evans at Project Publicity. There was a runway show, super hot beats, and more than enough cocktails to keep you entertained. And if this picture below doesn’t make you want close out the week, and your bedroom door, I dunno what will! The one in orange guarded our cocktails while we smoked, the one in blue was of the quiet variety!
And so we conclude a round of events and shows, courtesy of DangeRuss and Danimal.
