in pursuit of
COCKTAIL fashion
A toast to vanity. To special occasions, modern, embroidered
cocktail napkins and noble risks that find Doubting Thomas
simmering in a fetching shade of red. To informed opinions,
a liberating curfew, provocative candlelight, humor without
copyediting, decadent plates, a tipsy attempt at dessert,
generous neighborhood patisseries open ten minutes longer
and ravenous conversations. To high/low philosophizing, self-
effacing travel stories, gifts over gift cards and unexpected
company. A toast to excess and the purest luxury found in one
sensational martini glass
