Shark Attack Sound July 4th Party
Where: Montauk Yacht Club: 32 Star Island Road, Montauk
Why: A shark was just recently spotted from a beach in Quogue, and we feel certain he was probably en route to Montauk for Photographer Ben Watts’ July 4th party with a huge soccer game kicking off at 6pm followed by BBQ at 8pm. AND don’t forget to bring a book for an Accompanied Literary Society donation!
When: Saturday, 6pm More»

Max & Suzanne Set-Up Shop In Sag Harbor And Party This Holiday Weekend

[Max Barbaria and Suzanne Diaz of Max & Suzanne] As if you needed one more reason to head over to Sag Harbor besides the yachts and killer views, we have another excuse for you: the boutique Max & Suzanne will be opening there this Sunday, June 5th, and they won’t be doing it quietly. The shop owners and designers (and happy couple since high school) are Max Barbaria and Suzanne Diaz, and if you aren’t familiar with their mix of simple and unique gear, now would be a good time to start. Specializing in casual clothing that’s perfect for a weekend at the beach, they do everything from unisex bib front button downs to street vendor inspired denim caps. More»

Honoring Dick Cavett for the preservation of his Montauk moorlands, The Nature Conservancy threw a gala in Bridgehampton this past Saturday. Entitled “Beaches & Bays”, the event was held at Mecox Bay, appropriately overlooking the water. The pricey party (normal tickets were going for $600) started with cocktails and hors d’oeurvres and was followed by dinner and dancing enclosed in white tents. Luckily for guests, the weather matched the perfect views. More»

Summer Song Of The Day: American Girl

Artist: Tom Petty

Song: American Girl

Did you expect anything less than a cliche Fourth of July Holiday theme song? We just had to. But American Girl is just too good a classic to pass up. More»

While Lounging Poolside…

Drink This. A pitcher of Lemonade Caipirinhas will not only quench your thirst this (hopefully) hot July 4th but it will also impress your guests. If cocktail hour leaves your guests statiated for dessert later on in the evening, you can prepare our recipe for flag cake to be served while watching fireworks. Courtesy of fellow Hamptonite, Martha Stewart, the ingredients and directions for the Lemonade Caipirinhas are below:

Hitting The Course For The Fifth Annual Hamptons Golf Classic

[All photos by Adriel Reboh for PMc]

The Gofg Hamptons Team had a great time at this year’s Hamptons Golf Classic V. and we weren’t the only ones. Golfers cruised around the course in friendly competition with cocktails in hand stopping by the bars set up at various holes featuring tasty beverages from Hypnotiq, Malibu Rum, Dos Equis, and many more with host New York Knicks B-baller Chris Duhon in support of his Stand Tall Foundation, which Duhon created in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in August 2005.

We’re Happy To Be Away From The City This Week Because…

Well, we actually just were in the City. Last night. If you are a loyal Twitter follower of ours (as you should be! @GofGHamptons! Get on that!), you’ll know that @CarsonGriffith, @KLuciano, and @KendraMiaSeay all traveled to the city last night for a 12 hour venture to attend the Malcom Harris’ One Dress Launch Party with GofG, catch up on errands, and see friends. Since Kendra and I actually live in the city 3/4 of the year, it was great being back on our home turf, and we didn’t realize how much we missed the choas of city living, the high rises, and the general hussle and bussle of the city. But you know what? Nothing beats the Hamptons in the summer time. And there’s certainly one reason we are glad we are back here: HOLIDAY TRAFFIC! More»

Suit Up!

This bout of sunny weather has put us into the mood for colorful everything, and that includes colorful swimwear as well. When I saw this Bantu assini one piece from Oak NYC, one of my all time favorite stores and online shops, I knew it would fit in perfectly with these new-found sunny days and would brighten the mood if the deardrum rainy ones happen to return. While the halter bathing suit is apparently African inspired and entirely manufactured in Ethiopia, we think it could totally pass for a Greek mosaic. More»

Eavesdropping Is What Guests Do Best…

• The question is, was Ed Kleefield’s Southampton restaurant and lounge, Madam Tong’s siezed byNY State or not. The Southampton Press originally reported that it in fact was siezed, but now the article has mysteriously disappeared… [CurbedHamptons & SHP]

• It is one thing to film your television show in the Hamptons, but it is another when you choose to dis the East End. Memo to Royal Pains: You get more bees with honey than vinegar so start playing nice [EHPress]

Hamptons House Of The Day

Different from most Hamptons beach homes out here, this particular house in Southampton stood out thanks to its interesting use of geometric shapes. This particular home appears to have taken some architectural inspiration from the 1988 Tim Burton film, Beetlejuice. All we can hope is that there isn’t some pestiferous    bio-exorcist named Beetlejuice living in the attic. More photos below: More»

Water Front Lounging In Montauk During Surf Lodge Weekends

[All photos by Rob Rich]

Go HERE for more photos by JT WHITE and TAG YOURSELF and YOUR FRIENDS!

The party starts way before the sun goes down during summer weekends at Surf Lodge. We spent our late night Saturday at the popular Montauk after-party location but it looks like we missed another party that occurred way before the sunset as party-goers skipped the dance floor and opted for kicking back on the cozy water-front beds to sip cocktails and relax on the deck, at the bar, and lounging in the sand.

Style Your Own Sole With TOMS Shoes At Sole East

[Blake Mycoskie, Rachelle Hruska. Photo by Maxine Hicks for NYT] Looks like one our favorite entrepreneurs, Blake Mycoskie, is bringing his philanthropic shoe company, TOMS Shoes to Montauk this 4th of July weekend. After spending Mycoskie’s first visit to Montauk with him earlier this summer, the experience must have left some impression to want to return back. TOMS shoes will be hosting a Style Your Sole Party on July 4th that will kick off the opening of a TOMS Shoes Pop-Up Shop located at Sole East. More»
