Even though my blog has turned into a food/fashion hybrid as of lately — my original intention in creating Suburbanette was to share all of the interesting, fun, and low cost entertainment opportunities in our fair city. To celebrate the upcoming holiday season (and to help you dudes and dudettes come up with some amazing, [...]
The folks at DC Socialite asked me to cover a hipster masquerade ball last week. I was feeling extra nervous because: 1) I am not a hipster 2) I didn’t have time to buy a mask Womp womp! However things turned out okay because I am a fatty and the catering company, Tarsier was able [...]
Over the weekend, I suggested that my family take Kassie out to see the Zoo Lights exhibit at the National Zoo. Let me tell you…I HAD SO MUCH FUN! Going to the zoo is fun as adults but with toddlers – – 100x more exciting since they are experiencing all of these new sights and [...]

Last Friday night, my friend Uyen unexpectedly scored tickets to the Pink Rocks the Runway Fashion Show at the Ronald Reagan International Trade Center. Breast cancer survivors (and my not-so-secret news anchor crush Will Thomas — am I the only one who thinks he looks like Will from Will & Grace?) strutted down the runway [...]
The weather outside is frightful. But inside its so delightful. But as long as the wind still blows… I’m gonna sew! I’m gonna sew! I’m gonna sew! Even though it was blustering cold, I found the inner willpower to check out the annual Crafty Bastards fair in Dupont Circle over the weekend (check out my [...]
