    Charlie Palmer is so much more than your average steakhouse. Executive chef Matt Hill grills up dry-aged steak from the eastern shore of Maryland, beautiful sauteed fish, and locally sourced produce to for his Washington, D.C. restaurant. As for the entrees, don't expect anything to be too manipulated; Hill likes to keep things simple, and doesn't underestimate the ability to showcase the natural flavors of his dishes. But do expect an impressive wine selection: the restaurant boasts 10,000 bottles of wine on the premise, 3,500 of which are displayed in an innovative wine cube. Step outside to the rooftop terrace and catch a glimpse of the magnificent view of the Capitol.

    Embark on an ultra-glamorous getaway to the Mondrian Hotel located in the heart of Los Angeles. This newly re-designed City of Angels hotspot is not only a home away from home for the hippest of jet setters, but its trendy Sky Bar has even the locals flocking through its edgy "parallel universe" themed lobby doors. The newly re-done boutique hotel truly captures the excitement of the city with quirky furniture, offbeat colors, and inspiration from Los Angeles' natural scenery and skyline. On-site fusion restaurant Asia de Cuba combines Asian flavors and Latino spice with eclectic decor. Giant terracotta pots create an Alice in Wonderland effect surrounding the restaurant's outdoor tables, and its white-on-white interior is chic and spaceship-like all at once. For night time entertainment look no further than up, to the smoking hot Sky Bar perched atop the hotel. The "floating" Sky Bar's night scene looks straight out of an episode of The Hills, complete with pool, lounge furniture, and the twinkling LA skyline. The cool vibe continues in the Mondrian's 237 guest rooms and suites, all of which are filled with sustainable bamboo floors and a decor scheme that can only be described as surrealism meets Hollywood glamour. So the next time you are looking to escape in a major way, book a room at the Mondrian Hotel, and get ready to dine, party, and sleep in style. Check out my SLIDESHOW to learn even more about the Mondrian Hotel.

    Stylediarist Tootly is a force to be reckoned with. Not only does this 24-year-old New Yorker mix vintage and contemporary designs like nobody's business, but she also has a diary display like NO ONE ELSE. I adore how boring, repetitive white walls and closet backgrounds are replaced by photoshopped images of maps, graffiti, giraffes and the likes of Peter Rabbit. Her profile states that "photoshop takes [her] to places [she's] never been before," and it certainly does. The images complement the outfits, and the fusion definitely increases each looks points of inspiration. With a style that is defined but still limitless, Stylediarist Tootly is definitely one of the site's premier users! Check out my SLIDESHOW to see the looks that I think shouldn't be missed.
