Candace Bushnell Debuts Her “Summer and the City”

by Casey Valerie Linsey
Just like her fabulous and optimistic fictional creation Carrie Bradshaw, Candace Bushnell did not let the threatening skies, lighting, and thunder stop her from signing copies of her latest book on the picturesque rooftop of the Residences On The Avenue in Foggy Bottom Tuesday evening.
Drawing together some of DC’s fabulous fashionistas – Angie Goff, Eun Yang, Danielle Dobin, and the reigning Miss DC Stephanie Williams – the Washington launch of “Summer And the City” included a lipstick bar courtesy of Nectar Skin Bar, a tour of “Carrie’s Closet” designed by Neiman Marcus Mazza Gallerie, and a raffle for a $500 Manolo Blahnik gift certificate.
Though only one lucky guest got to snap up the stilettos, all in attendance were able to receive a complimentary copy of the newest portion of Carrie’s saga while noshing on yummy mini Georgetown Cupcakes and summery cocktails.
