Carole Radziwill Remembers Mary Kennedy
Just got this in my email…

Like so many others I have heard from, the Mary I knew was full of care for others, and energy, and love. That is how she will be remembered to all those who loved...

THE ELEGANZA REPORT: Dictators Wives Edition
These ladies are so elegant they make my eyes bleed. Such diamonds should not be reserved for their African countries alone - sadly, as their chic statements are made using funds their husbands have bled from their countries, many of them can’t travel. So I bring them to you…

Elsewhere in the house of Condé, there were rumblings about Lucky, the magazine that was recently given a major redesign by Editor-in-Chief Brandon Holley.

Bill Clinton: You Got Some 'Splainin To Do
BC was behind the push to tear down Glass Steagall, even AFTER Long Term Capital Management failed and had to be bailed out. We are feeling the repercussions now. He and his cohorts also made fun of/criticized Brooksley Born, then head of the CFTC, who was the lone voice against tearing it down. (Why sometimes lone voices are the bravest/most sane).
