At Keith Lissner’s event on Wednesday night Mary Rambin looked perfect in her Lissner designed gown.  Not to mention how immpeccable Keith was, but that goes without saying.

Among all the activities this weekend, I’m most excited for McCain’s fundraiser in Easthampton tomorrow evening. Rachelle and I, along with the PlumTV crew, plan to snag a quick interview with him. I’ve never had the opportunity to interview a presidential candidate and I secretly aspire to mediate a presidential debate when I grow up. After deliberating the myriad of possibilities, I finally decided what the one question I find the most vital…

And so went our night last night. It seems to us that New York is all about money, making it, having it and keeping it. We certainly saw our share spread around last night.

We began our night at the opening of Delicatessen sponsored by Interview Magazine featuring a Polaroid photo exhibit by Terry Richardson. We were invited by our good friend Susan Kilkenny, who just started at Interview, but couldn’t find her through the crowd.

More story and photos below:

We wandered around the space, ran into our friend Lorenzo Martone, spotted Terry Richardson across the room and waved to Patrick McMullan. The space was beautiful but the open doors did nothing to help the air conditioning and we were shiny and sweaty in minutes.

We then headed over to Gramercy Yoo by Phillipe Starck for the Catherine Fulmer cocktail party and sample sale. By this time we were very steamy and hoping for some real air conditioning. Unfortunately that was not to be. The party was held in a gorgeous penthouse apartment, rumored to be going for a cool 11 million dollars. It featured two patios and someone seemed to think keeping the doors open was a good idea. Bad idea number two was having one bartender for an already hot crowd. Despite those little flaws we had a great time and it was a great event.

The event was hosted by Alessandra Balazs, Annie Churchill, Antonia Thompson, Ashley Wick, Chessy,Wilson, Genevieve Bahrenburg, Holly Doran, Holly Lang,Rebecca Guinness and Serena Merriman. When we first saw the invite with all those girls we actually thought it was the guest list! We were meeting Gillian Hearst Simonds and found her on the patio, trying to keep herself cool. Inside we spied the people one comes to expect at these events and we mixed and mingled with Liam McMullan, Alessandra Balasz, Sarah Basille, Timo Weiland, Byrdie Bell, Eric Richman and Kristian Laliberte.

Next stop was dinner at the Gramercy Park Hotel restaurant, Wakiya. We, along with Gillian, met up with Sparrow for cocktails and after Gillian’s long time friend Daniel Montalto joined us for dinner. The food was exceptional, especially the soup dumplings, as were the drinks. Time really got away from us and we finally bounded out of there close to 11pm and we still had one more stop.

Our final stop for the evening was the 10th anniversary party for Sephora at the Angel Orensanz Foundation. We missed the performances by Ashanti and Natasha Bedingfield but were in time to hang out with our favorite Sephora cover girl Lydia Hearst Shaw. We got to the VIP area and joined her along with Jasen Kaplan, Sabrina Huls, Michelle Egerts, Timo Weiland, Kristian Laliberte, Michael Barclay, Yann Vasnier and Chance Yeh. Samantha Ronson was DJ-ing and our favorite mess, Lindsay Lohan, was there cheering her “alledged” girlfriend on. Bigger Mess, Mom, Dina Lohan was there to support the happy couple. The gift bags, weren’t bags at all, but professional make up cases that guests were allowed to fill up with sephora products sprinkled through the event. We debated with Timo about going to 1OAK but calmer heads prevailed and we headed home. Another great night….

PS-those little cards Lydia and Gillian are holding are the membership cards for the upcoming Eldridge-Lucky girls!

Today’s Fame Game Match Up is between my two favorite GofG team Naeem Delbridge and Scott Buccheit.  Ryan, Jen, take this from me: they need their profiles updated asap.  God knows they’ve been to 24 parties THIS MONTH alone.

The Keith Lissner event below was originally planned to happen at “The Country Club” a new cocktail lounge located at 248 W. 14th street (right next to Plumm).  We were going to have “Brunch at the Country Club” and serve up some french toast stick appetizers with a long detailed menu of Bellinis. When, last minute we found that the space would not be ready, we relocated to the Royalton which was, thankfully a spectacular venue. However, Country Club now really is ready to open next Wednesday and we have all the details:

Country Club is a sophisticated, high-energy cocktail lounge that combines elements of a modern social club with a live entertainment venue, for a unique nightlife experience. Located just off Manhattan’s Meatpacking District, Country Club represents a contemporary interpretation of classic clubhouse lounges found in early 20th century country clubs throughout the United States and Great Britain.

The energy and feel of Country Club is driven by its design and exceptional musical entertainment. The venue’s design concept creates the feeling of being in the great room of an elegant private estate. Décor development was assigned to Jeani Ziering, the renowned interior designer known for her work on private residences in Palm Beach, Southampton, and Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Her inspiration for the club’s design was a vision of “The Rolling Stones recording an album at a traditional English Manor and the environment that would be left upon the album’s completion.” The feeling of warmth and affluence commonly found in classic homes and estates has been reproduced and updated, with an edge. The designer has utilized luxurious fabrics and timeless patterns (including alligator skin and houndstooth prints), and a color palette that will juxtapose the classic clubhouse furnishings.

The venue has a centralized stage for showcasing a rotating lineup of live entertainment. The club will feature performances by premier rock/pop artists, as well as independent café-style performers who will take the stage in the early evening, during cocktail hours. Later in the evening, the venue will transform into a more traditional nightspot, with sets by an ongoing rotation of top-tier local and international DJ talent. Country Club’s clientele will experience the energy, excitement, and environment of Manhattan’s most exclusive nightclubs and lounges. Focused on a commitment to servicing our customers every whim, revelers will be treated like members of a posh British country club. By marrying the sophistication of an upscale cocktail lounge with late night energy of a nightclub, Country Club will be a must for refined New York socializing.

The menu at Country Club is focused on fresh interpretations of classic cocktails and bar snacks. The cocktail list is centered on an extensive list of Bellini’s, featuring 15 variations on the high-society cocktail. Club goers will have their choice of peach, roasted pear, orange-cardamom, chocolate-espresso and a Bordeaux version, inspired by the region of France, and an assortment of others. Additional cocktails on the menu include a Basil Vodka Gimlet, the “Country Club” punch bowl, and a classic Mint Julep. Country Club’s signature bar snacks include scrumptious selections like the Truffled Grilled Cheese, “Pigs in a Blanket” Lollipops, and a dish of Peaches with Prosciutto and Basil. In addition, the club offers 10 gourmet popcorn flavors, including Sweet Georgia Pecan and Chocolate Chunk & Caramel.
