[All photos by R. Cole for Rob Rich]

Saturday evening at Surf Lodge was hotter than ever, but was it too hot? Although the Suffolk County Fire Marshal might have thought so, due to his highly undesirable appearance that evening, the party still carried with full force well past sunset. The evening kicked off with the 2009 Patron Outdoor Concert Series including a performance by Frederico Aubele Band… More »

Eavesdropping Is What Guests Do Best…

  • Who even knew there was an official Bacardi Rum House in the Hamptons? Before the party gets shut down for good by the Town Of Southampon, we certainly wouldn’t mind an invitation to check out the scene for ourselves [EHS]
  • The Hamptons seems to be the place for impromptu concerts. First it was Bon Jovi at Blue Parrot, now its Jimmy Buffett at Stephen Talkhouse. Buffett surprised the crowd alongside Ilo Ferreria this past Wednesday [BlogHamptons]

Bringing Back The Baywatch For Ten Year Celebration

[Photos via Getty] Attention Baywatch fans, is a revival of the show in the works? Probably not. However, it’s hard to believe that it has been ten years since the show’s last air date. The beach series built around the drama and activities of Los Angeles hotties lifeguards, lasted from 1989-1999. And lets not forget Baywatch Hawaii which had a short stint from 1999-2001. (What? No Baywatch Hamptons?) These photos sure are a blast from the past taken in early 2000, when Baywatch celebrated the 10th anniversary of the shows syndication… More »

Summer Song Of The Day: 100,000 Fireflies

Artist: Magnetic Fields

Song: 100,000 Fireflies

For some people, Memorial Day weekend is the start of summer. For others, its that first hot day, or tan-lines, or a long weekend at the beach. But for me, it’s the first night when there’s a full sky of fireflies. Because nothing makes me feel like I’m a kid again like catching fireflies, and some ice cream… More »

Clothes Makes The Couple

[Happy couple Susan Patricof and Alan Patricof. Picture by ADRIEL REBOH for PMc] Even though there was no dress code for the cocktail party at John and Jodie Eastman’s for the New York Stem Cell Foundation, this duo took it upon themselves to make sure they were color coordinated. And we’re not just talking about his jeans matching her navy stripes. Nope, these two matched right down to their identical bright pink sweaters, wrapped primly around their shoulders. Perfect for a cool evening - and when they need to find each other in a crowd. It looks like Susan wanted to go above and beyond with her outfit as well, and pulled it all together with a matching pink belt (nothing gets past our discriminating eyes!). Despite everyone at the Eastman’s looking perfectly pulled together for the night’s events, we may have to give the Patricof’s the award for the cutest couple of the evening. We certainly didn’t see anyone else with matching cable knits!
