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-mobileMore »

Summer Song Of The Day: She Moves In Her Own Way

Artist: The Kooks

Song: She Moves In Her Own Way

Even though we jokingly mock a lot of the vacationers out here in the Hamptons (between the botox and the binges, some people just make it too easy), but it’s all in good fun - most of the time. More »

Clothes Make The Kristian

This boy-about-everywhere gets his own special category for “Clothes Make…”. Kristian Lalibarte is never one to disappoint with his attire, and he’s keeping the tradition going for another season here in the Hamptons. After looking especially dapper at the Social Life party on Saturday, and again for the private dinner the following night, we were eager to see what he would have in store for his casual wear.

Interview With Steven Alan: On His New Store In The Hamptons, Another Birthday, And What It Means To Be A “Hipster Icon”

[Happy Birthday Steven Alan!]

Pop-up shops seem to be… well, popping up all over the place this summer. But one we’re really excited about is Steven Alan’s beachy casual boutique, located on 52 Newton Lane, in East Hampton. The larger-than-life designer literally does it all (showroom manager, jet-setter, dad) - including opening up a store in three days. No wonder he was struggling to hold on to his voice by the time I got him on the phone yesterday. After meeting him on Sunday, it was a pleasure talking to him again - the guy who has been called a “hipster icon”, and designer I’ve been following since I went in search of the perfect button down, is about as laid-back and cool as his clothing. Here he talks to G of G about the pop-up shop, his Hampton favorites, his Birthday, and just about everything else in between. More »

Alex McCord And Simon van Kempen Share Their Very Special Moment With Us

At Robert Fowler, Candice McCullough, Suzanne DeMambro, and Kerry McVey’s country club chic Memorial Day fete, (write up to follow),where everyone seemed to be concentrating more on their cocktails and conversation than their surroundings, a big announcement was about to be made. The crowd was hushed by a fellow party-goer, a space was cleared, and Alex McCord and Simon van Kempen took center stage in the middle of the room. No, they weren’t disclosing information about the Real Housewives of New York’s next season, so what was it? Alex is pregnant? More nude photos? More »

Eavesdropping Is What Guests Do Best…

  • Can it be true?! The Upper East Side’s Mezzaluna is setting up shop in Amagansett and it looks like tasty wood-grilled pizzas will be ready to serve earlier than expected. [Curbed Hamptons]
  • Want to know what your favorite celeb was up to out East during Memorial Day weekend? If you guessed playing doorman at Lily Pond, cuddling with his girlfriend at Montauk Yacht Club, or stripping down at Surf Lodge, then you might be right. [NYP]

The Harbor Club And Dune: The Next Kelly Vs. Bethenny?

[Photos via Rob Rich]

Here’s one way to get rid of the competition: Call the fire marshal on them. Or at least that’s what neighboring clubs apparently did to The Harbor Club (Ziggy’s by day), according to the people at the door of the successful new venue, that just had their opening weekend. More »

Summer Has Officially Started…It’s Time To Party!

[Photo by J.T. WHITE] Hey Hey it’s Summer!

This Memorial Day Weekend was one for the books, as everyone was ready to party away the cold winter months and dance summer in.  Case in point: these groovy chicks at the Melet Mercantile store opening in Montauk.  Paul Sevigny kept everyone happy out east this weekend. Oh, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. We have more parties to take you through than we know what to do with. Thankfully, we have the entire week to do it in. Be content in knowing that wherever you ended up this weekend, we had everything that you may have missed covered.  Buckle up and enjoy the ride…

Eavesdropping Is What Guests Do Best…

  • East Hampton’s J. Crew-at-the-Beach has moved and expanded just in time for Memorial Day Weekend and we hear there’s some sort of J.Crew ice cream cart involved…As if the newly expanded store wasn’t reason enough to go. [Curbed Hamptons]
  • Will the economy place a permanent cloud over the Hamptons this summer? Polo matches, benefits, and A-list parties aren’t going anywhere except maybe down a notch [CNN]
