ABOUT-FACE
Out with the gaunt and tight, in with the plump and juicy. There’s a new face in town—and it’s a baby’s.
By Jonathan Van Meter; New York Magazine, August 11, 2008

A woman I have known for many years did something to her face not all that long ago, and for a few weeks afterward, I was not able to put my finger on it. Did she get her eyes done? Restylane injections? Botox? Then I thought, Oh dear God, she got a face-lift. No one whom I consider a friend and a contemporary had yet gone that far. But there was no denying she had done something major, and frankly I was worried. Had she ruined her pretty face? As the curtain of hair slowly parted a little each week, I could see that her lips were bigger.

I’d only talked about my issue with any honesty over the years with about six or seven people, and when you leave out my wife and a therapist, they are all men.

THIS YEAR’S MODEL [CHRISTIE BRINKLEY]
The events of last year hardly dimmed Christie Brinkley’s high-megawatt all-American smile.
By Amy Larocca; New York Magazine, Aug. 25, 2008
(2,300 words)
Much has been made of the light in the Hamptons: It is perfect for painting, it is perfect for sunning, it is perfect for illuminating the shingled houses, the electric-green lawns, the hedges and the pools and the soft clay courts.
