Guys buying for gals
December 17, 2014
A guy picking out a Christmas gift for the gal in his life is definitely a topic of interest. For starters, a major blunder is giving a loved one a vacuum cleaner or crockpot as a present. Another ticklish area is lingerie – male shoppers invariably miss on type, size and color. This is closely followed by perfume – which should be a no-brainer. Just find out what she wants -- then write it down.
Help is definitely needed here, so we’ve created a list of great fashions from Adea.

Girls’ Getaway
November 26, 2014
There comes a time in everyone’s life when one says, “I need a break from my daily routine – I gotta get outta town.” This happened to my friends and myself when I was at Columbia. We decided we just had to get away from books, term papers, lectures – the whole bit.
A New Venture
November 19, 2014
On a sunny afternoon in early October, I decided to take a walk down to 76 Greene Street in Manhattan’s Soho district to take a look at an unusual apartment.
Was I looking to buy or rent? No, I was merely intrigued. When surfing the web I inadvertently saw “The Apartment by The Line” that said, “Open to the public on Saturdays, 11 am to 6 pm”. Why not I thought?
After a few missteps, I found the door to 76 Greene, entered and pushed the elevator button to the third floor. My jaw dropped as I stepped out into a light-filled, spacious loft with high ceilings and jaw-dropping furnishings and accessories.

Later on, I spotted an article in the New York Observer that described a book-and-swap party to celebrate the launch of this book. It was held in Rachel Comey’s boutique in Manhattan’s Soho (she is one of the contributors in the book) and it was a festive affair of book party-and-clothing swap rolled into one – accompanied by lots of champagne.
