Fashion Week is not always about work; we take a lot of time pampering ourselves at the various fashion suites, too. The best suite of the week was at the
Waldorf Astoria Towers-- not only were we greeted with bubbly and brunch (our yardstick of a good time is yummy champagne, so it wasn't Perrier Jouet but it was Vueve which is yummy and drinkable. Speaking of Perrier Jouet, my hubby proposed with a huge double magnum with keys to the Perrier Jouet chateau for our honeymoon!)-- we were given the movie star treatment by hair stylist
Kevin Lee-- creative director of Kenneth Salon (
Kenneth is the man who tended to both Marylin and Jackie O's locks!) located at the
Waldorf Astoria. I've stayed here in the past and love it for its tradition and history but the newly renovated
Waldorf Tower Suites are as hip and ritzy as hotels get. Kevin is humble, sweet (and from our 'hood in LA!) and gave me the most incredible head of bedroom curls that no one (not even Orlando Pita) has ever been able to achieve before. I read that Marylin Monroe went to see Kenneth everytime she was in NYC. I think I will continue the tradition with Kevin. If you are ever in NYC, call Kevin for a hair appointment-- you will not be disappointed! Kenneth Salon
