Jeffrey Campbell brand specialist Ty McBride made the rounds earlier this week to a few parties, events and NYC hotspots in an attempt to put his winter hybernation phase behind him (all bear puns not intended). First stop–the OAKazine launch party at spin. Jeffrey Campbell client, Oak (www.oaknyc.com)  knows how to throw a party–and by hosting the launch of their newest magazine at SPIN in mindtown, Oak once again proved that irony really is dead.  (shop Oak, or see the zine online now at www.oaknyc.com)

While at this event we ran into a favorite blogger of the JC office–Karen Blanchard of wheredidugetthat.com fame. It was a total crush fest. Shown here is JC’s McBride photographed with Blanchard’s pal Tay.  Later that night the trio again bumped into each other at the hotel rivington on the LES where style blog  www.stylelikeu.com was hosting a night of serious fash, cute kids, and amazing tunes.
