<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>Tinsley Mortimer</strong> might become the next T.V. phenom. It seems the 31-year-old socialite is considering starring in her own series, a reality number with a “fashion bent.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Even though Ms. Mortimer is toying with the notion of broadcasting her daily life, she’s not too keen on the media. In today’s <a href="http://wwd.com/notavailable/dotcom?target=/beauty/article/121168&amp;articleId=121168&amp;articleType=A&amp;industryKw=beauty&amp;industryKw2=beautyarticle" target="_blank"><em>WWD</em></a>, Ms. Mortimer says that tabloids are filled with a bunch of lies. And though she acknowledged that she can’t really control how the public views her, she’s learned to steer clear of certain publications.  <span class='read-more'><a href="http://www.observer.com/2007/tinz-tv-diors-diaphanous-socialite-considers-reality-series-hates-tabloid-media">&nbsp;read&nbsp;more&nbsp;&raquo;</a></span></p>]]></description>

 <title>Socialites Dress Down! For Charity</title>
 <link>http://www.observer.com/2007/socialites-wrap-rap-good-cause</link>
 <description><![CDATA[<!--paging_filter--><p>Last week, the socialite-heavy charity New Yorkers for Children hosted its annual “Wrap 2 Rap” afternoon benefit. We weren't there but, reliably, <a href="http://parkavenuepeerage.wordpress.com/2007/11/19/wrappers/" target="_blank"><em>Park Avenue Peerage</em> was</a> and they just posted their pictures.<br />
<p class="MsoNormal">It was perhaps most notable because the &quot;what is she wearing?&quot; line does not apply: to get down and dirty with the present-wrapping (for underprivileged kids), the young ladies who are known as fashion plates donned oversized gray athletic T-shirts with the words &quot;Wrap 2 Rap&quot; scrawled over the surface.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Joining celebrity host <strong>LeAnn Rimes</strong> were <a href="/2007/arden-eden">Arden Wohl</a>, <strong>Zani Gugelmann, Fabiola Beracasa</strong>, <strong>Dayssi Olarte de Kanavos</strong>, <strong>Lydia Fenet</strong> and <strong>Margherita Missoni</strong>. Providing the event’s soundtrack, a D.J. played rap hits in the space while, according to the Upper-East-Side-centric blog, “the women got to see, first hand, who exactly benefits from their seasonal luncheons and balls.”</p>]]></description>

 <title>At Burberry, Sashaying Socialites Shop for a Cause</title>
 <link>http://www.observer.com/2007/new-yorkers-children</link>
 <description><![CDATA[<!--paging_filter--><p class="MsoNormal">The seemingly ubiquitous Manhattan socialite <strong>Fabiola Beracasa</strong> stepped out of the elevator at the third floor of <strong>Burberry</strong>&#39;s 57th Street flagship store about 7:30 last night wearing a knit top under a zig-zag print dress  and elbow-length black patent-leather gloves.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">She was a co-host of a party taking place at the store after hours, benefiting <strong>New Yorkers For Children</strong>, a charity that raises money for children in foster care. These kinds of parties--ones that pair upscale brand names with charities for the down-at-heel, are nearly as ubiquitous as Ms. Bercasa.  <span class='read-more'><a href="http://www.observer.com/2007/new-yorkers-children">&nbsp;read&nbsp;more&nbsp;&raquo;</a></span></p>]]></description>
