What's On Stephanie Nass's Holiday Wish List?

by Guest of A Guest · December 8, 2022

    Stephanie Nass (a.k.a. Chefanie) is New York City's certified hostess with the absolute mostest. 

    When she's not setting the dreamiest dinner tables or entertaining a coterie of social scene swans with her signature grace, the chef/caterer/culinary influencer is busy designing cheeky-chic tableware essentials, playful accessories, and even special occasion-worthy frocks and fashions. Let's just say she does it all, and then some.

    So if there's anyone guaranteed to make the holiday festivities extra fabulous, it's Miss Chefanie!

    How do you celebrate the holidays?  
    With hot fried donuts and potato pancakes, as well as lots of presents! 

    Where will you be this season?  
    Between NYC and someplace warmer (the latter TBC).

    Are you a last-minute or way-in-advance shopper?  
    Mix! When I see things that people I love will love, I buy them anytime of year. Sometimes those perfect gifts don't enter my path, so I last minute scour the city and internet for something special.

    What's the best gift you've ever received?
    I love my giant Hermes shawls. They are chic in all seasons and remind me of the people who gave them as gifts.

    If it's tough, you're not listening closely.
