Desperado, why don’t you come to your weekend?
Your Perks: 1) A bottle of Dom Pérignon that looks like Björk designed it. Because she did. 2) Sustainably sourced Italian caviar that you’ll put on brioche or blinis or tiny spoons and enjoy. 3) Umbrellas that are so good, they’re worthy of bragging about. Which you’re allowed to do.

We’ve still got a couple months of less-than-temperate living to do. So the fact that C’H’C’M’ has a solid in-house line of blazers, cardigans, pullovers and beanies waiting for you down on Bond St is pleasant. That they’ve got them for half off right now is something more than pleasant.
What They’re Doing: A party at the McKittrick inspired by Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo +

You: Is House of Yes doing anything for Valentine’s Day?
Us: Dinner served off of naked bodies. Bondage performances. Burlesque and contortionists.
A hot-wax play area.
You: Oh. Right. Let’s go.
