Stephanie Prommer is a writer, editor and stylist in the fashion and entertainment industry. She's on the scene at all the hot parties, bringing you the inside scoop on A-list style and gossip.
I hit up a fundraiser for Charity: Water at Saks Fifth Avenue the other night, and while celebs like Mischa Barton, Diane von Furstenberg, Ashleigh Verrier and BMX rider Nigel Sylvester added some wattage, I was really transfixed by Alex McCord (pictured) and Simon van Kempen from the show The Real Housewives of NYC.
I chatted with Alex and Simon a few days before at Bravo's A-List awards, and at the time I heard some rumblings that the NYC ladies weren't getting along with their OC counterparts. I asked them for a little re-cap on that evening's fight, and this is what Simon told me:
"They [the OC cast] have a huge chip on their shoulder. Do you know why? Their husbands tried to get on the red carpet [at the A-List Awards] and they weren't allowed on, and so the OC wives were angry about me. They were angry that their husbands didn't get on the red carpet and I did."
Since it's been disgustingly hot and sticky lately, I also asked Alex how she tames her naturally curly tresses in the humidity. She shared: "I usually keep style cream in my bag to slick it back with, or if worse comes to worst I use hand lotion."
Then being the good sport she is, Alex gamely rummaged around and showed me the tube of Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Hand Salve she had in her handbag.
