Some people wear their hearts on their sleeves. But those of us who are more fashion-forward prefer half a human head, thank you very much. Now, before you think we’re getting all Chianti and fava beans on you, relax. We’ve merely found the ultimate vanity gift for the person who has everything. (Or at least [...]

Step right up and get your tickets for the emotional rollercoaster that is April’s theatre offerings. The comedy highs are extra high like Broadway’s Best III with all the great songs from musicals and none of that pesky dialogue. But the drama lows are there, too, with shows like Bent, which explores gay life in [...]

Decorating your windows is like accessorizing – a little goes a long way. (You hear that, Mr. cubic zirconia earrings, bracelet and matchy-matchy oversized belt buckle!?) But when we laid eyes upon the “Until Dawn” curtains by Dutch designer Tord Boontjes, we knew that our drapes were moving up the ranks from window-supporting cast member [...]

Travel is like crack for the gays. We want it all the time, and we don’t care how much it costs. But not all of us have the vacation time of a schoolteacher and the budget of a CEO. So when we go on holiday, we want every second to count, whether it’s sitting under [...]

Even though they’d probably be less dangerous behind the wheel than that guy you saw on Central Expressway this morning talking on his iPhone and shaving, it just ain’t right. But your pets are busy and they have places to go, things to pee on. [...]

Schadenfreude – it’s German for “happiness at the misfortune of others,” and we like to think of it as one of our best qualities. Apparently we are not alone. T-shirt makers Y-Que has jumped on the malicious glee bandwagon and created an entire line of tees devoted to celebrity mug shots. Really, each one is [...]

Sexy and 20/20 haven’t likely been uttered in the same sentence since Hugh Downs and Barbara Walters last teamed up. Perfect vision, however, is always in fashion. And whether you need something fabulous for your far-sightedness or just a pair of bodacious bifocals, the new West Village optical boutique, Optique, has some kick-ass frames to [...]

A pack of dogs, a group of bears, a Christian pop star, several hundred lesbians and the Easter Bunny walk into a bar. Believe it or not, that’s not a joke setup. It’s what’s in store over the next seven days of springtime fun. Easter in Lee Park Sunday, March 23, 11:00 a.m. – 5:00 [...]
