Anyone else fascinated by NYC high society?

Yes! Sigh. I spent many a late night in the early 2000s going down internet rabbit holes reading about these folks. Paris H was just coming up, and the world didn't yet know how vapid she was. I felt sorry for Marjorie Gubelmann, always being the only plus size woman in the room.

I did not know that!

Also, did Marina Rust go to school around here? I've read that she grew up in DC (her father was curator of French Painting at National Gallery of Art).

She had a crazy, hippie mom who dragged her around to communes for her early years, the her dad won custody and raised her in DC. She went to NCS then boarding school (Westminster).

Another good follow is Minnie Mortimer. She gives me boho billionaire vibes and sometimes that's just what I need to be inspired by. When I feel like middle class frazzled and frumpy.

Are they all leaving NYC now that so many firms have relocated to FL and real-estate is devalued so NYC not so exclusive?

Do you know who fascinates me as Jill Kargman because she pretends not to be filthy rich but she is!

There's very little that's special about these people other than growing up privileged and entitled because of generational wealth.

Lmao I live in NYC.. they’re still here and haven’t left. Also, real estate in NYC hasn’t devalued at all. It’s actually skyrocketed in fact.

Went to school with Laruen Santo Domingo. She is homely but has become a fashion darling because she married a billionaire. Lets call it for what it is.
We attended a wedding of a mutual friend about 5 years ago. She has a fabulous body is tall and lithe but a super homely face. She thinks she is now the cats meow and even has a Instagram referring to herself in the third person "THE LSD". Major eye roll. Get over yourself.

Tried to get into a club my family has belonged to for over 50 years and they were not accepted. She is doing her absolute best to become a NYC queen. But there are some circles that will not have it.

Grew up with these kinds of people my entire life. Some are real but many are full of themselves in a reverse showoff kind of way. They go out of their way to wear an old shirt, or banged up boat shoes but never forgetting their LV lockjaw.

Married a "normal" guy from the West Coast and was so happy to be able to become part of a more normal world. Welcome relief!

I grew up with them too and happy to be out of NYC. But I’m dying to know which club. Maidstone? Piping Rock? The Bathing Corp?

Is this a joke? The only people I know going to Fla are people who can't afford NYC but would do anything to stay and the 70 and above crowd.

She's trying hard to be the second Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy. I think this is why she didn't fix her nose.
