Fresh off an unforgettable Mother’s Day weekend, I found myself immersed in one of the season’s most stylish and high-vibe events: SUNSET OVER WALL STREET — OCHO DE MAYO at Bar Tontine, a sprawling rooftop oasis perched high above the city at The Wall Street Hotel. With sweeping views, curated cocktails, and a guest list buzzing with energy, this night was a true celebration of spring, hospitality, and luxe downtown culture.
An Evening of Purpose and Celebration
Welcome to Soho: Thursday Boot Co. Unveils Their New Flagship at 45 Crosby Street Last night, I had the pleasure of being invited—once again—on behalf of Thursday Boot Co. to experience their exclusive Whiskey Tasting & Preview at their brand-new store in Soho. Held from 6 PM to 8 PM at 45 Crosby Street, the event marked a stylish rebirth for the brand, blending timeless craftsmanship with the modern energy of downtown New York.
April, here we are—just leaving winter with hints of sunnier days and cool, reflective nights. Amid the seasonal shifts, one development stands out for every parent and teen to note. I recently had the chance to attend a breakfast at the Meta office in New York, where I learned firsthand about some exciting updates to Instagram Teen Accounts. These updates promise a safer, more controlled digital experience for young users, and they come at a time when we all need a little extra assurance in our online interactions.
The Knockturnal had the pleasure of attending the exclusive Protek NY Website Launch and Influencer Mixer, a vibrant gathering that seamlessly blended car culture, digital innovation, and influencer energy under one luxe roof. Hosted at the sleek @63AutoBody in Brooklyn, the event marked a bold new chapter for Protek NY—the go-to name in advanced paint protection film.
In the vibrant heart of New York City’s Lower East Side, I had the privilege of attending a remarkable theatrical production that left an indelible mark on my artistic sensibilities. The journey began at Bean & Bean, a cozy spot where I crossed paths with Patrick Sturm, an exceptionally talented actor and writer. Our conversation delved deep into art, life, and the unique ambiance of the live art show we were about to experience.
I met this young lady while I was in Midtown having lunch. She walked by, and there was a glow about her—something undeniable. I left my table, walked over, and introduced myself. What followed was an hour-long conversation about the book she was reading at the moment. I shared a quote I had written, and in an almost divine synchronicity, both my words and the passage she shared from her book mirrored each other perfectly. It was a rare, meaningful connection. That was my first meeting with Constance Victory, and we’ve been connected ever since.
I recently visited Aqua in the Flatiron District with a friend, and we ended up catching up for hours over an incredible meal.
Seems like March is the new year. January came in hot, and February had its boxing gloves on. But March—here we are. What’s that we feel in the air? A bit more sunshine and a breeze that hints at the spring days we long for.
So, happy new year to my readers. I hope you’ve been planting seeds because now it’s time to sprout.
Last night, I had the privilege of attending the Dara Lynn Foundation 1st Benefit Dinner & Poker Tournament. This remarkable event brought together passionate advocates, celebrity guests, and community members to raise awareness and funds for children with autism and intellectual disabilities.
