as i dash off to a warm cozy bed after enduring chilly temperatures in heels and a slinky armani gown (courtesy of a bargain a la tj maxx circa 2002), i am delighted to share a mini pictorial of today’s extravaganza.

dc was truly electric today and it has been an absolute pleasure to take part in the festivity. i feel honored. i hope these photos can give an idea of today’s excitement: louis + moi hitting the streets, beau + moi pre gala plus at the gala, biden + jill, obama + michelle. such fun! patriotism + hope is literally oozing from this city right now. i heart the united states of america + am incredibly proud to be a part of this next era. love seeing history unfold before my eyes.
