What People Want & Need at West Edge Design Fair, Especially During the Holidays

By Laura Medina


A week before Thanksgiving, the interior design and cooking appliance fair, West Edge Design Fair open up for home owners and interior designers and multiple real estate owners.

The timing comes in handy for cooking up, while entertaining a storm, for guests and visiting guests.

A London-based grill company does barbecue.

Chefs treated folks to crunchy crust, juicy interior steaks showcasing outdoor and indoor grills.

Since the stove and oven with smart refrigerators, are the hearth of the home, chefs and lifestyle established influencers demonstrate healthy soups to counteract all that juicy meats and fresh grilled pizza.

One of the favorite item is a marble kitchen island that lights up as a lamp. Double-duty and multipurpose are always a winner.

It’s not all big appliances for big homes.

Another favorite is a portable keg mini refrigerator cart on wheels, for the first real apartment, first real kitchen or even a glam studio apartment in heart of Manhattan.

The top of the mini refrigerator cart is a set of 3 kegs that you can pull and pour fresh foamy cold brew coffee, kombucha, and frothy draft beer.

All hooked up behind and below inside the refrigerator, the top rack. 

The middle and bottom racks are regular mini fridge, storing pints of any type milk, couple of cheese and fruits and cups of yogurt.

A mini bar for the corner, whether it be a living room, office, or kitchen.

Practical faves for the holidays and beyond.

 By Laura Medina 




This lifestyle journalist always get inspirations and ideas attending glam parties that incite envy in others.

Who What Wear’s Holiday Arcade Party is no different.

To see what others will get for Christmas, look no further than Who What Wear’s advertising sponsor, Burt’s Bees’ Christmas trees, decorated and decked in Burt’s Bees lip products, tiny and flavored untainted balms, ripe for the picking. 

Other sponsors did games to treat guests with prizes.

Guests lunched on burger sliders and fries buffet and of course, open bar.

As the day progressed, lines of people made do, playing vintage video games from the Eighties.

That’s how you throw an holiday party.


“Emilia Perez” & “The End” are the New Types of Musicials.

This entertainment reporter noticed this trend in supposedly movie dramas. They’re breaking out of the straight and narrow.

Perhaps, taking a cue from Bollywood, when things get deep or sexy, they divert with a song and dance.

Not with crime trans drama, “Emilia Perez” and drama-comedy, “The End,” they go deeper into the subconscious with song and dance numbers.

“Emilia Perez” burst thru a many fourth walls with using song and dance numbers to dive deep then express the characters’ inner thoughts and lives. Of course, these musicals numbers showcase Zoe Saladana’s and Selena Gomez’ singing and dancing range.

“The End” lacks the dancing part but they’re also singing to express the characters’ inner thoughts.

These two movies might give musical numbers new ways to flex its muscles.
