Packing Up Shop To New York City…

Remember your maiden voyage out to the Hamptons at the start of the summer? It was probably Memorial Day, you probably had too many people in your car, and the traffic was probably too much too handle. For us: Check, check and check, as you can see here by this pic of the GofG-mobile… More »

Top Summer Movies To Live By… Long After The Season’s Over

[Kate Bosworth, her hot bod and crew in Blue Crush. Photo via EW.com] Want to celebrate summer this last weekend but aren’t really the beach type? Or the BBQ type? Or club type? Or, eh, well ok, we get it, we’re not quite sure what you do then, but we have an alternative for you. And if you’re just too burnt for the sun from this summer, there’s no better way to seek refuge and still enjoy those last few days than a good old fashioned movie. While we’re out prancing around on the pristine beaches of the Hamptons, chowing down on perfectly cooked burgers and dancing around till the sun’s nearly up like summer may never come again, you can enjoy these final days of the season with our list of the Top Summer Movies. So here’s some of the best of the best, including our own personal office picks. Turn up the air, break out the aloe for that burn, and try not to weep - summer’s not over quite yet!

Summer Song Of The Day: Let’s Make-Out

Artist: Does It Offend You, Yeah

Song: Let’s Make-Out

We’re not quite sure where we heard this song, and we’re not quite sure why Kendra choose this specific song to Shazam one night, but regardless it’s been on our “Almost The Weekend” playlist now for the past couple weeks… More »

Another Weekend Caught On Tape: What Happens When GofG Hamptons Gets Their Hands On A FlipCam

Hamptons Weekend 8/15/2009 from Stanley Stuyvesant on Vimeo.

What do you call two and a half minutes of pure social gold? Our video from last Saturday in the Hamptons. We shot coverage at Intermix for the North Shore Animal League Event with Beth Ostrosky, the Opening of Hinterland by Ryder Robinson at TBD, and the Artwalk benefit for the Coalition for the Homeless. So what do we have on camera that our posts just can’t offer you? Well you’ll have to watch to find out, but here’s some clues… More »

TBD Throws Down For Ryder Robinson’s Hinterland Art Opening

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

The pop-up shop that’s been getting so much press this summer, otherwise known as TBD, located smack dab in the middle of all the action in Southampton on Jobs Lane, decided to mix things up again and hold another event in their primarily menswear store. The boys of TBD, Jesse Warren and Peter Hananel, hosted the opening of Hinterland…

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

[Photo via flickr] It’s really eff-ing hot! As a matter of fact, it is going to be so hot this week that ice furniture is necessary in order to take a break from the heat. These two kids were spotted “chillin out” in the middle of Union Square sitting on two solid blocks of ice. While it may be scorching hot in New York, we thankfully always have the beach to help us cool off. In the event that your air conditioning seems to break the same day temperatures reach above 90 degrees, you can always play in an open fire hydrant for free or shell out the big bucks for a private rooftop pool membership More »

If You Want To Go And Take a Ride With Us…

[Picture via Pamela Viola] I’ve been trying to get on a bike all summer. I swear it hasn’t been this hard since before I got my training wheels off. So when we saw this article today on Refinery 29 written by our friend Steven Rojas, we got pretty excited. Summer bicycles! And oh, are some of them pretty! We decided to each select our favorites (which were obviously totally different) in the hopes that the manufacturers would think seeing us riding along Main Street would be the best form of advertising for their play things and send some our way. Or… not. More »

“The Best 2K I Ever Spent” The IVY Bus Takes On Montauk Highway Once Again

[Jared Flint, Amanda Dunn, Emerson Barth, Xiyin Tang, Julie Van Daele. Photos courtesy of STEVEN ROJAS]

You can come by plane, train or helicopter but there is no better way to get to the Hamptons these days than by The IVY’s party bus, leaving out of Soho every other Saturday and heading non-stop to their parties at Sole East in Montauk. Only thing is, $2k isn’t what you need to get on this bus - it’s VIP status only. Knowing the right people is the key, and keeping your fingers crossed tightly for that e-vite to show up in your inbox is just as important.

The Blue Parrot: Overhyped And Overpriced

[Image via NYMag] In case you were wondering why we haven’t dragged ourselves into the Blue Parrot as of yet, it really doesn’t have anything to do with the shaky reviews. We have yet to find a place that reviews have deterred us. We just figured that Curbed Hamptons was on Parrot Watch so tightly they pretty much had that covered for all of you (how did Kristin phrase it? Tighter than Bradley Cooper’s abs, to be exact?). But as my family was in town over the weekend and my aunt read somewhere Martha Stewart enjoyed some Dirty Bird margaritas and chipotle guacamole at the Mexican hot-spot, she was set on trying it out. Sure, why not? I figured I could report back to the GofG Hamptons crew. To spare my time and yours, I could do a pretty quick pros and cons list, but I’ll go into a little more detail for you… More »

Summer Song Of The Day: Walking On A Dream

Artist: Empire Of The Sun

Song: Walking On A Dream

We all have really different taste in music here at GofG Hamptons . Kristin loves techno (and I mean LOVES it), Kendra digs more underground, Brooklyn-esque, Rachelle just recently discovered Pandora, and while I pretty much download any song they play on Gossip Girl without (too much) embarrassment, I’ve been known to scour up an original song here and there… More »
