I really don't like Vegas. But I can get behind the kitsch and nostalgia factor! This looks pretty much the same as in 1941 when it opened.
When you're about to spend a week at the Bellagio in Las Vegas, this is what your body needs. Yes. A week in Vegas. In August. Every year. This year: 5,600 of the best people in luxury travel. Can't wait to hear the latest news & trends from all over the world.
Thank you, my gorgeous, smart, charming, funny Swiss man for taking me to my favorite place for German baked goods in NYC on my birthday. A taste of my beloved Vienna & maybe Switzerland, too ;) @alexherrmannnyc
Forever favorite lunch spot @littleowlnyc. I think 200 people have stopped to take photos of the "Friends" building.
So I read the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo in three days. If you like old Hollywood glamour and scandal, you'll love it. Bel Canto made me buy opera tickets (and research the real-life embassy hostage crisis it's based on). The other four are coming with me to the beach this month!! Not pictured: the best book I've read in months - The Bright Hour by Nina Riggs! Not your typical cancer memoir, written by the great-great-great granddaughter of Ralph Waldo Emerson. It's so beautiful. Also The Rules Do Not Apply by Ariel Levy is amazing. Whew. What are you reading?! @jopiazzaauthor
The list of things I can conquer after getting my highlights done: literally anything. #amiright
Candy. ❤
I ❤ you & our lunches @dsfez. Also, every food item ever made @elizabarnyc.
A Swiss souvenir. #nightonthetown
One of those "if these walls could talk" hotels. Coco Chanel would camp out here for months at a time. John Kerry negotiated on nuclear weapons here with Iran in 2015. But the real story is Lausanne - one of the coolest cities in Europe. Can't wait to come back. Thanks @christophejemelin for all your recs!
IN LOVE WITH THIS HOTEL, the definition of a grande dame. #lausanne #lakegeneva
Bern, a city (more like a large town) I love, and the capital of Switzerland. People are lining up at the window of this old family-owned chocolate & pastry shop. And the locals are buying those mini pretzel (brezel) sandwiches on the right, filled with cream cheese/herbs or butter. Bern's version of a quick bagel breakfast...or egg on a roll.
