he wasn't sure why he was — actually the appeal of free wine and the chance to talk to some stars and former stars that he wouldn't have came across in any other situation had brought him here. mostly the wine. cristian lingered by snacks, taking the time to recharge and observe the room. where to go, who to avoid. he glanced over at the person next to him, moving a bit to make room for them. "damn. i mean, sorry. do you think they'll mind if i just take a whole tray from here?"

She missed being able to bounce around conversations so easily but with her wedding planning and everything seemingly being so active at the moment she got little peace at events like this. Her hand covered her mouth as she bit into the horderves. Finish before she opened her mouth to speak. "No, gorgeous, really. Your outfit truly gives artistic chic." At least their family was not the point of tonight's event." Lucille smiled. "You could be a piece of art yourself."

"Thank you... you're just so kind."

"Vanessa is certainly a choice..." Blair muttered the words to herself as she read the blast about Chuck and Vanessa for the fourth time. His actions had no affect on her; absolutely none. Chuck could do whatever and whoever he liked, but why did her friends keep insisting on slumming it with the Brooklynites?

the gallery event was in full swing and it was fine. if it were anyone else hosting, iris would be less resistant to it's assault on the senses but this was jamie park's event. no matter, iris was here for her boss, rebecca ravenwood (and her family by extension).

"Fuck me." Who was making these drinks? @tfrstarters

Vanessa couldn't believe this was happening. She had been so careful to never divulge her entirely misguided mistake with Chuck Bass, no one knew. She thought no one knew. How the hell did 'Gossip Girl' know? Whatever, that wasn't the point. She didn't want to be stuck at this party but she definitely didn't want to face Dan, not now. Not that it mattered! So, she'd done the next best thing and pushed her way through a sudden crowd of whispers and into Juliette Vanderbilt's nth house. After the third turn trying to find the bathroom or a coat closet, or anywhere that wasn't occupied, she could have screamed. Rich people and their endless number of fucking rooms.

"you go travelling for work and you miss everything these days. some things never change with the upper east side"

the vanderbilt gallery was a thing of beauty and jamie park had somehow managed to make it grander and more beautiful than before. olivia had spent some time chatting with guests and catching up with her fellow actors before she decided it was enough and she snuck out back to steal a moment of peace to herself - mainly to have a smoke, but still, a moment of peace.

Tabby had been excited to be invited tonight, mostly because it meant Sapphire had forgiven her for whatever their last fight was. All she remembered was a slap and a drink to the face, nothing new for them. Time healed all superficial wounds; they could always get over their stuff. She had always hit on Jesse more than once, but if she was honest, he wasn't fully her type. Totally gorgeous, he was too nice and always looking for a relationship.

"I'm sure your invitation was just misplaced. I mean, you can't even begin to imagine the hours of calligraphy that went into them, Lucille was very particular. Yeah, yeah, I'll tell her-... Mhm. Okay, have a great evening," Emmeline grinned so widely she must have looked a little unhinged. When they finally left, she rolled her eyes and turned to find the nearest drinks tray.

"Look at this beautiful face! Where did you get a face so beautiful?" @tfrstarters

where there's life in a party, there will be agnes andrews. a woman always hellbent on having a good time, she was in her element in the hamptons. chilling with a drink in her hand, in the sun and surrounded by other people who were out for a good time really was the vibe
