Welcome to the World According to Carrie Neal!

A Worldview Defined: Carrie Neal Land

Where intelligence and fashionista-common-sense have equal footing, good champagne and cocktail napkins are always on hand, women ages 25 to 35 may vote based on taxes and national defense instead of Roe v. Wade scare tactics, and working hard and being a favorite regular are both esteemed art forms. Kisses that leave a girl breathless are the national lottery jackpot, and adorable dogs who know how to behave in designer handbags are expected.

New Friends, Private Label Champagne and A Pinky Swear
 
It was a really good night. Last night, I had a lot of fun. I met some new girlfriends for drinks and snacks and a book-signing with one of the most stylish and at the same time completely endearing and charming men ever, Mr. Isaac Mizrahi. The girl-time was delightful - I needed a dose of good conversation with smart, stylish and funny women and this was way more than I could have asked for! My newest "online" friend from one of my writing gigs invited me to join her and some of her friends and they were just so lovely. Then, our visit to Borders for Mr. Mizrahi's Q-n-A was funny, low-key, and all-around terrific.
 
Next up, a quick stop by my parents to pick up a "spare" DVD player (mine broke; turns out theirs doesn't work either. . . more on THAT later. . . ) then out to meet a childhood friend-turned recent friend-again for drinks. We decided on Johnny's Hideaway, as we were both in the mood for. . . people watching! I like the kitschy charm of Johnny's personal champagne (served in these adorable splits) so over a few drinks, we watched the crowd and swapped tidbits that we pinky-swore not to divulge to other parties.
 
I think it's one of the best nights I've had in, well, awhile.
