New York, New York! The Big Apple! It’s fabulous in the fall, and walking through Central Park is a must. Don’t miss the Bethesda Fountain, the Poet’s Corner, and you have to stop for a drink at the Boathouse.
Monday nights at Birdland, it’s an absolute blast, with Billy Stritch and Jim Caruso and the Cast Party, you never know who will come in and surprise you that night. Just sit down and enjoy them sharing their talent. There’s usually a top Broadway Star or two!
If you’re lucky enough to get tickets to a Broadway Show this season, Moulin Rouge is the ticket, and the talk of the town. I’ll be going, and I’m so excited. Of course, a trip to New York is never complete without a trip to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Check out all the exhibits, and the rooftop garden with a 360 degree view of the city.
To top it off, there’s the iconic Village Halloween Parade, which is absolutely amazing.
So whether you’re strolling down 5th Avenue and looking at all the shops, or taking a cozy walk through Central Park, remember, it’s all about style!

I’ll be buzzing all over the country this summer, and telling you all about my favorite places and things to do.
It’s been 6 years since Feinstein’s 54 Below opened their doors, and they have some of the best Cabaret Shows in the United States, not just New York City. Go there on a Friday night – they have a show at 7 PM, 9:30 PM, and at 11:30 PM they have the National Touring Cast of Chorus Line doing a concert. Always interesting – go online to 54below.com to checkout 54 Below.
Another one of my favorite activities in New York is to go to Birdland on a Monday night and go to the Cast Party! Jim Caruso and Billy Stritch are favorites of mine and I love a chance to see them – they always have incredible people come in and share their talent. It’s at 315 West 44th Street, and it always starts around 9:30 PM. Check it out here!
Of course you always know I go to a show on Broadway, and this year, one of the best of the 2018 season is Angels in America, Tony Kushner’s original 1993 masterpiece has returned to Broadway….If you can manage to get a ticket! It’s a must-see!
Another one of the things to top my list is the Georgia Okeefe’s Exhibit that’s taking place this month at the New York Botanical Gardens in the Bronx. It will be in their Conservatory, where they’ll be showing some of her fabulous paintings that she did in Hawaii, that haven’t been shown in New York since the 1940s, side by side with some of the most beautiful flowers and plants. A must-see!
And of course, strolling through Central Park can’t be beat! Between the zoo, the pond, the lakes, incredible trees…And of course, those Elms.
So whether you’re going to a Broadway Show or a beautiful exhibition in Central Park, remember, it’s all about style.
