FOREWORD LET’S PARTY!

Ahhhhh the holidays! As one downs an umpteenth glass of champagne and takes yet another bite of that Bûche de Noël, gluttonous guilt could be waiting in the shadows when the marathon merriment simmers down. Just when the hangover kicks in, the booze blues take hold and the post-gorging stomach ache attacks, one could reach for those tried-and-true remedies such as Alka Seltzer, Advil, Ativan and, let’s say, some sensibility, right? WRONG! We’re not promoting constraint when it comes to celebration. In fact, our December issue is all about partying on!

For those that hit a lull, bottomed out or discovered the consequent low to every high during the season of soirées, have no fear! In need of a fiesta favor? This month’s pages are your little pick-me-up! With all the rock-star-style revelry, spirits will be soaring with just a sip of what we’re serving.

And what’s a fab fête, without a special guest? Fashion-photog phenom Alvin Nguyen co-curated the editorial fun just for your eyes only. So, go ahead and indulge! Overdosing required.

Jessica Young, Fashion Editor
