my new bff

zelda kaplan
humitarian/nightlife legend
age: 92



this dashing diva is a very different kind of "it" girl than we are all used to, but that is exactly what she is.
she is elegant, exquisite, and friendly/friends with everyone and always dressed to the nines. the one time law school student, turned wife, turned ballroom dance teacher, now spends her time making rounds at all the hot NYC night clubs and sleeping until 2pm, but also speaking out about women's rights in africa. when she isnt doing that, she's modeling for MAC cosmetics or making her way onto FHM's list of 50 most eligible women in 2004.
the village voice did a piece on her, but my fav was a piece in the most recent issue of BlackBook. thanks to IMBD, i found out that we have the same birthday!
her history is fascinating, i only hope that one day i can be as interesting as her.
