Our own Beth, that is. Here she is snapped by WWD last week at an event she co-hosted with pals Lela Rose and Fernanda Niven for Edible Schoolyard, a wonderful initiative headed by chef Alice Waters to plant veggie gardens in public schools. There were lots of really cool things about the event: The fact that a full one hundred percent of the event’s proceeds went entirely to the night’s cause, for starters. That the meal served was prepared by no other than Alice Waters herself. (See her pictured below amongst a bevy of veggies, and look her up if you haven’t heard of her. Seriously.) Oh, and no biggie here: That the venue (aka Lela’s apartment) boasted a pre-set dining table that was lowered from the ceiling when dinner was served.

One small aspect that particularly and arbitrarily charmed us, however, was that the event took place on the Summer Solstice. Don’t ask us why: Maybe it has something to do with that whole circle of life, cyclical union between man, nature and sun type of thing. Or maybe it’s because we’re just so freakin’ happy it is finally summer and we can all run around in happy sundresses and chic jumpsuits, a la Beth (at left in Thread Social) and Fernanda (bottom left in Thread Social).

You know, either or.
