A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

In 2006, I started taking Xanax and continued, more rather than less, for the next 17 years. The drug was first prescribed to me after I experienced a panic attack. I had thought that I was dying. My children were two and six years old. We were at home—my husband had gone for the day and the babysitter was late. I started sweating and had this urge to run, to get outside. I didn’t know what was wrong, but my heart felt weird and I didn’t want to die in front of my kids. So I stuffed them in a stroller and went down to the street—West 106th in Manhattan—hoping to intercept the sitter. There she was in the lobby. She took the children. I didn’t explain. On the street, the noises were loud, the light galactic. I think it was summer. I was walking but had no idea where I was going. Fear crawled over me like ants.

On a summer Wednesday in Sag Harbor, partygoers escaped the mid-week blues to join Alison Loehnis of Net-a-Porter and Mr Porter for an al fresco summer dinner at Parrish Art Museum. Rather than ask the "why" behind the fete, Lohenis would muse: Why not? The Southhampton gathering celebrated the summer season and the brand's fashion family.

Thanks to their “back to school” associations, loafers were once considered a winter shoe that you revisited in September, when knitwear comes out of hibernation. However, in recent years they have become a year-round classic, that look just as good with a white sundress or pair of shorts. The spring 2024 collections were awash with loafers, including creative director Sabato de Sarno’s debut at Gucci which had 25 platformed loafers in the line-up.

The spring 2025 menswear shows wrapped up a month ago and one of the biggest trends from our male street stylers? Brooches!. While we can thank the 2024 award season and stars like Barry Keoghan and Cillian Murphy for popularizing the trend into the mainstream, we must remember where the brooch resurgence truly began: Pharrell Williams’s first show for Louis Vuitton.

Cats of Kansas City

Now that we have all had our fill of grilled burgers and fireworks, let's look at some unsung Americans--cats. Did you know that there are nearly 100 million cats living in the United States? I'm not sure who counted all of them, but that's a lot of cats. Enough to sway an election were they given the right to vote (which, of course, they should be). Unfortunately, many of those cats don't have a place to call home. Here are six cats, all in the greater Kanas City area, who would love it if you might consider giving them a bed, a litter box, and a bowl full of kibble.
