Falling in Love with Iberian Wine Country
I was recently invited by Olė&Obrigado Imports to participate in a traveling wine seminar through some of the most important wine regions of Spain and Portugal.
Olė&Obrigado is one of the most ambitious and dynamic importers of exclusively Spanish and Portuguese wines whose success has been growing exponentially since its inception in 1999. Founded by Patrick Mata and Alberto Orte with just three wines, their selection has grown to over 100 different labels in two decades.


Vernissage: Ghana Freedom & Venice Biennale
On the opening day of the 2019 Venice Biennale, I found myself 707 miles away in the heart of London’s financial district in a meeting, distracted, and utterly miserable at the fact that I was missing out on the most anticipated date in the art world’s calendar, due to the palaver that is Brexit.
After the meeting finally came to a close after an hour of empty murmurs about big businesses’ concerns and currency devaluations, I escaped to the nearest cafe, coincidently an It


Rome's Rooftop Vistas & Views
Hotel Raphael Rome has a small, hip rooftop terrace that’s home to Mater Terrace. Here you can expect top-notch service and great food along with refreshing drinks and a wide selection of Prosecco – not to mention a magnificent 360-degree view over Rome. The whole hotel has an organic orientation, and this shows at the terrace and restaurant also. The food is vegetarian, organic and biodynamic. Most of the wines from the extensive wine list are organic. So a visit at this roo


Style & Sensibility
A hotel that delightfully intertwines fine craftsmanship, bespoke design, and historical allure in the heart of Cornwall. Previously owned by a high-spirited salonniere, Lady Edith Carkeek, the Penventon Park Hotel has been no stranger to lively banter and general mirth. The Penventon has been opening its doors to titled families and influential community members since as early as the 19th century when Redruth was the “world center” of metal production.
It has always been k


"Notes on Camp" Met Gala 2019 in Photos
The world’s largest fashion gala rolled out the pink carpet for celebrity invitees who donned couture costumes for the event’s theme, Camp. The invitation-only guest list for the Met Gala is curated and then approved by Anna Wintour.
This year’s theme, Camp, Wintour noted in pre-event interviews, was one of the most confusing to date. Inspired by the 1964 essay “Notes on Camp” by Susan Sontag, the core significance of camp is specifically described: love of the unnatural, of


The World's Fastest Sailboats: SailGP
The complete transformation of the San Francisco Marina for SailGP’s second stop on the global tour, following an inaugural run in Sydney Harbor, included a pop-up, invite-only VIP tent nestled between the two anchor yacht clubs and the waterfront. Chilly winds from the water were matched by sunny skies over San Francisco for the two-day event that drew thousands of excited spectators in the grand stand as well as public areas of the waterfront, including San Francisco’s fame


Polo for Good
ROME – An international, jet-set crowd mingled with Italian elite on the sidelines inside the Roma Polo Club VIP lounge Friday, May 24.
The theme was distinctly Italian, with lemons and bright Adirondack chairs – both monogrammed with the St. Regis logo – and the sun shone brightly overhead after several chillier days in the Italian capitol. To say the crowd of over 400 was chic is an injustice; the crowd was refined, while brimming with styles straight from the runway in

HRH The Duke of Sussex joined his long-time polo friends in Rome over the weekend to raise funds for his charity Sentebale.
