Chocolate tasting, Chinese New Year parade, Fashion week and new exhibits

Free Chocolate Tasting, The Strand
Indulge Your Senses With Some Haute Chocolate

Sorry, all the other aphrodisiacs, but we would bend it like Beckham for some unbelievable artisanal chocolate, if you know what we mean? Come taste sizzling chocolates by Haute Chocolate, a brand committed to "a life of virtuous hedonism," oh my. Free and open to public, so swing by any time this afternoon for a little bit of love.




Chinese New Year Parade
This month, Chinatown gets stormed by dragons, dancers and some of the best Chinese food the city has to offer in celebration of the Lunar New Year. But before you get lost in the bang of firecrackers, check out some of the best things to do in Chinatown, NYC. Brace yourself for what’s sure to be a wild celebration with the Chinese New Year Parade!

Get camera-ready for Fashion Week 2018. NYC will be filled with a stampede of posh editors, bloggers, stylists and shutterbugs. (They will be invading your favorite coffee shops and cafes. You’ve been warned). Tickets to some of the major runway shows aren’t available to the general public, but newsflash: you don’t have to be part of the elite fashion world to feel like an insider. Maybe you don’t have a front-row seat to the shows or a spot reserved next to Anna Wintour, but don't fret—we’ve got you covered. From free New York Fashion Week events you can actually attend to tips on how to get noticed by street style photographers, we’ll make sure to keep you in the loop. Make sure to book an appointment at one of the best hair salons NYC has to offer and hit the best clothing stores and plan out your most stylish outfits for the week—you never know who might be taking your picture.

Rose Crystal Tower at Union Square
Rose Crystal Tower is glass artist Dale Chihuly’s sculptural ode to pink rock candy in Union Square.

We’ll wait no longer for the gift of sound and vision. He sold the world, fell to earth, jammed with the spiders from Mars—few artists covered more terrain (and crossed more cultural boundaries) than David Bowie. The musician-actor-tastemaker-digital-innovator will be the subject of a Brooklyn Museum exhibition come March 2; handwritten lyrics, wacky outfits, videos and all kinds of rare archival material will highlight the audiovisual extravaganza.
