So, like two giddy school girls, Kristy and I headed into the city last night for a date with the adorable Nate Berkus.
Ok, so, we weren’t the only ones, (there were hundreds of others) and it wasn’t really a date (more like a book signing party for his new book takig place at Jayson Home and Garden.)
But still …
We’re up next!!!!
(And check out that amazing lucite desk.)
Just as charming and adorable as we expected. He smiled, shook our hands and knew our names … (They were written on a post-it on top of our books.)
He even asked us if we wanted to meet up after the book signing party.
(Just kidding.)
But see that exclamation point? Clearly, he was sooo excited to see me.
Sadly, they wouldn’t allow pictures with Nate.
This was the best we could do …
Is it creepy?
Ok, maybe we look like Stalkers.
But we are friendly stalkers.
That’s his face behind one of the strict Bouncer-Lady’s hands …
(If you’re wondering how we got these oh-so-sneaky pictures, it is the work of our friend Karen, who is not just an undercover photographer but an amazing seamstress as well. If you need curtains, bedding, pillows or upholstery, she is your gal!)
Anyway, we thought it was nice that Nate had champagne waiting for us …
Champagne in cans … to drink with a straw! It was almost as adorable as he is.
And some amazing food …
(The pork belly was our fave … we won’t talk about how many we had.)
With Leeland, one of the amazing designers at Jayson Home and Garden.
So Nate … wherever you are today … thanks for a wonderful evening. We’d be happy to come to New York next time and stay in your new digs.
(Have you seen the pictures of his Manhattan Duplex in Architectural Digest? Swoon! Yes, there IS a guest room.)
Love that pic – not creepy, hilarious! I'd do the same thing!
