Alexandra Richards is one cool cat. In between DJ’ing parties like the Day & Night 4th of July party like she is here, the model and covergirl filmed a Gossip Girl cameo. In last night’s season 3 premiere, the beauty was the object of Chuck’s wandering eye and Blair’s jealous one. Nacho Figueras was her partner in appearances, as the Upper East Side clan stopped into Greenwich Polo. Adding to a list including Jay McInerneyand Tinsley Mortimer, we can’t wait to see what the new episodes are bringing us by way of suprises.

[One poor guy felt the after-effects of what being a Polo fan really means last weekend in Bridgehampton] via hamptons.guestofaguest.com:Think that Bridgehampton Polo watching is a laid-back, carefree day of fun in the sun, spent breezing around with fabulous people who carry Evian spritzers in their seersucker shorts? Think again. Newbies to the sport of Polo watching, such as this young gentleman on the left, More »
The writers over at NYC Prep must have realized that they needed to be really careful with the title of the show this week. One slip of an extra “a”, lack of an “s” here and there, and they could have a potential lawsuit on their hands- I don’t care how many times it came out of Jessie’s mouth, but “Guest Of A Guest”, sometimes they do have guests… apparently not PC though… More »

Wondering why Ariel Moses’ much awaited Twitterfic Round-up is a day late? No, she wasn’t out partying it up with Kelli and PC again, but it’s because everyone here (and across the country it seems), has caught a bad case of Gohan fever. Yes, that’s right - Jon Gosselin and Michael Lohan’s bromance made me put Ariel’s NYC Prep’s tweets on the backburner for a day, and boy are we feeling the backlash. More »

[Toby Hemingway, Sebastian Stan, Will Malnati. All photos by NICK HUNT for PMc]. Bridgehampton Polo is one of those summer events building anticipation the moment the car’s packed for that first bumper-to-bumper trek east in June. Oh the schmoozing! The clothing! Oh right, and the actual polo! So it’s sort of hard to imagine this stand alone affair partnering with a chip company to get the tents even more hopping, but that is very much the case,this year. The Mercedez-Benz tournament partnered with Pop Chip,More »
