Lighting Up Puerto Rico with Tara Summers

Two months ago my good friend, actress Tara Summers, went to Puerto Rico to work on a film. Knowing she was about to witness much of the destruction left in Hurricane Irma and Maria's wake, Tara started a GoFundMe Page to raise money to take some $25 solar powered lamps with her, which the International Medical Corps had advised her would be really useful.

FORTY-FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS (and counting!) later, the lamps, which are charged in the sunshine and last 8hrs, have made a real difference to so many, especially the elderly and the young, at this more than challenging time.  

I met up with Tara for a cuppa whilst in New York and asked her to tell us more…

It will likely be another four months before power is fully restored across Puerto Rico, and you can help by donating HERE.

WELL DONE TARA! xx

Topshop with Tara Summers

I recently took British actress Tara Summers personal shopping at Topshop, Oxford Circus, whilst she was over visiting from LA.  An old friend of mine, Tara is best known for her role as Katie Lloyd in ‘Boston Legal,’ for starring in ‘Damages’ and also ‘Ringer.’  I'm very excited about her latest venture, acting alongside Greg Kinnear in new TV show, ‘Rake.’  Tara was on the hunt for some smart, but comfortable, daywear to wear with both blue and black jeans.  We shopped until we literally dropped (which luckily was atDean Street Townhouse - below - one of the best places to collapse btw!)
