Jasmin Rosemberg Tells Us How The Other Half Hamptons

Go HERE for our interview with Jasmin Rosemberg in full.

We’re more than a bit in awe of Jasmin Rosemberg. At twenty-three, the bubbly Brooklynite bunked Standard & Poor, landed herself a column at the New York Post chronicling her Hamptons share house experience, and lived to write the bacchanalian tale. A slew of reporting gigs and media spotlights ensued (Life & Style, BlackBook, Page Six, VH1), as did a novel, out June 25th. How the Other Half Hamptons reads like Animal House 2.0: The Hamptons, with all the delicious cultural references and sartorial digs its location necessitates. In our current SATC-crazed enviroment, we can’t help but draw comparisons to another, fictional NYC columnist, for while Rosemberg’s fashion sense may be a tad less eccentric, she’s just as endearing. We got the dish on Park Slope childhoods, old-school literary brat-packers, and what should be in every share houser’s suitcase.

Interview With Emmett Shine And James Cruickshank Of LOLA New York

[James Cruickshank, Alexander Young, and Emmett Shine, founders of LOLA New York]

I knew I would become friends with Emmett Shine and James Cruickshank long before they even knew I existed. LOLA New York was a name that subliminally imprinted itself in my head months ago. I don’t know when or how this happened, but I do know that for over a year I have been curious to figure out just what it stood for and who was behind it. All signs in my universe pointed to LOLA…from my walks around Soho to the people that I met that continually spoke about it like a secret club that I had yet to discover. Well the searching is over, and the guys behind LOLA are every bit as “cool” as I suspected. Hailing straight from Southampton, they are becoming our newest resource for all things East. You are equally likely to spot them outside the Village Cheese Shop in Southampton (the spot of Emmett’s first job as a teen), on bikes as you are to in an art showroom filled with socialites in Chelsea. They’re one part Manhattan movers, one part laid back locals out east…though don’t that last part fool you, these two will run CIRCLES around you work wise, and their part of the reason New York will never “die”.

How long have you known each other?
J: we were conceived around the same time so… post womb.

What exactly is LOLA?
E: LOLA is a collective of art-based entrepreneurial individuals working together on exciting and diverse projects that put forth creativity, aspiration, and enjoyment.

J: LOLA is a way of life.
