We interrupt our "What I did this summer" program for a brief news flash:Sarah Gavlak on assignment, New York City!

After a quick trip to Paris, I flew back to Palm Beach and re-packed my bags for a three week excursion to Pittsburgh, Las Vegas and Los Angeles. The amount of costume changes involved was dizzying. First, I had to pack for five days in Pittsburgh which included a day at Kennywood with my nephews, then a three day birthday party extravaganza for the fabulous Ann Tenenbaum and another week in Los Angeles...what's a girl to do? Send steamer trunks ahead? Taking my fashion cues as I always do from fashion legends and Warhol icons Jackie Kennedy and Elizabeth Taylor, I was appropriately dressed and still a little "out there" respectively for each leg of my trip.
