It’s the kick off of spring to New York City’s never-ending winter wonderland. It’s the Oscars of the east coast. The flashes from the cameras mimic the shimmering of marquise-cut diamonds. It’s the most selective guestlist and anyone who’s anyone attends. Only the influential, the beautiful and the known are cordially invited .

Let’s be honest, she’d pull it off because she’s basically a goddess, not really… but she’s up there.
