Last Thursday I jetted off to New York to attend a swanky Chanel event. Since their big launch is still top secret, I will instead delight you with the glorious details of my journey.

Where I stayed: The Standard in the Meatpacking District. Super-chic, its lobby was full of the fabulous set (lots of sky-high heels, skinny jeans, fur coats and big diamonds were spotted) and the cutest hip staffers (who must all be on the verge of getting that big break). My room was stylishly designed with floor-to-ceiling windows, had a view of the Hudson and one of the comfiest beds I’ve ever had the pleasure of curling up in. Stocked with Kiss My Face toiletries, the bathroom featured an open-concept shower and bath…something to take note of if you’re booking a room with your man (thumbs up) or your mom (thumbs down).

Where I ate: Touting itself as “not your daddy’s steakhouse” STK is one sexy meat market. Jam-packed, pumping killer tunes (The DJ was ah-mazing!) and serving incredible food and wine, this hot spot is also popular with celebs. While munching away on sliders, tuna tartar, porterhouse steak, parmesan truffle fries, and the likes, I spied DWTS competitor Kelly Osbourne, supermodel Iman with superstar hubby David Bowie, and singer Cassie.

The verdict: Since I love staying in fabulous hotels and eating at incredible restaurants and staring at famous people, it was pretty much a dream come true. Bisous à Chanel!
