If you’re a fan of Bethenny Frankel, then you already know that she’s a natural-foods chef, New York Times best-seller, nutrition and wellness expert, television personality, and new mom with the body of a 21-year-old. Busy women everywhere look to Bethenny for life guidance, and she recently spoke at Renaissance Times Square to dish out some of that sought-after advice.

Drugstore.com asked the quintessential modern mom to meet with bloggers in NYC to discuss the products from the website she and her family can’t live without. From Ziplock bags to St. John’s Wort, Bethenny revealed her personal shopping list to the writers at Renaissance.

Bethenny is an inspiration to hard-working women everywhere and we can’t help but say it… she’s a Renaissance Woman.

Renaissance Re-Launch Keeps NYC Up All Night

Any R-Lifer worth his salt in sequins knows what a good party will do for the soul. It won’t exactly soothe it, but it will definitely bring it back to life.

We hit up the Renaissance New York Hotel 57’s launch party in search of just that kind of resuscitation. We weren’t disappointed.

Knock 3 times to enter the Speakeasy

In the good old days, speakeasies were saucey joints filled with well-dressed drunks and women belting out sad tunes.

In the good old days, speakeasies were saucey joints filled with well-dressed drunks and women belting out sad tunes. Tomorrow night, Renaissance Hollywood will be transformed into a 1920’s “Speakeasy”, complete with jazz lounge, original drinks from LA’s top mixologists, and all the dark, sexy atmosphere you can handle.

See how you can score free tickets ($75 value each) at LA Blog

We Got The Beat

Rat-a-tat-tat, baby. Jazz has always been an improvisation. We like to scat as much as much as any R-Lifer, but sometimes it’s simply best left to the professionals. Take jazz pianist Eric Lewis, for example, when he took the stage at last Wednesday’s VIP kickoff at the Mayflower Renaissance Hotel for the Atlantic Magazine’s “First Draft in History” event.
