The Pages of D Come to Life

Last night, I was privileged to hang with no fewer than two D Empire cover models (at left: D Beauty’s Wendy Cruz and D’s December cover boy Julian “Run DMC” Barsotti) at Nonna during a post-mortem of the D Beauty 10 Most Beautiful Women shindig. What I learned: despite her squeaky clean looks, Costa Rican-born Wendy has an endearing affinity for English swear words; Julian’s friends thought our cover photo made him look like a werewolf, though the Adidas track suit gave off a more “extra from Entourage” vibe. Also in our party: Danny Schemel, Mistura watch creator, husband to Wendy, and D Beauty Quick Fix subject.
