“IT’S BETTER TO BE BAD” HALLOWEEN BALL ROCKS THE TOP OF THE PELHAM

GHOULS & GUESTS RULE AT RAUCOUS NEWPORT PARTY

Newport, RI. | October 29, 2022

If it’s hot, and behind a velvet rope, then you know Newport Living & Lifestyles will be there. And if Newport Living & Lifestyles is THROWING the event, then you better be there because it is going to be epic.

And EPIC it was, as Newport’s own hostess with the mostess, Newport Living & Lifestyles CEO Christon Gibson hosted THE Halloween Party of the 2022 season; the first annual “It’s Better to be Bad” Ball.

Conjuring up the creepy, costumed revelers packed the Top of the Pelham as the party space was transformed into a den of delicious debauchery. Newporters threw caution, and maybe their dignity, to the wind as media displays, a DJ and live musicians drank and danced into the wee small hours.

Touted as an evening of liberating libations and purging pretensions, the event did not disappoint. Far from it. There was complimentary bubbly for the first 50 guests, VIP booths, bottle service, and cash prizes for the costumed contestants.

It is fair to say that the 1st Annual “Bad Ball” will go down as the party that made the Salem Witch Trials look like a day at the county fair.

$250 MOST ORIGINAL PRIZE went to : Dark Snow White

$250 MOST ORIGINAL GROUP PRIZE went to:  The Addams Family

Newport is a vibrant, yet quaint, seaside resort community. Its charming character shines most brightly in the Spring & Summer months. Truly a “walking city” you can reach to the bustling waterfront, quiet colonial streets, magnificent mansions and some of the best beaches anywhere by foot, bike or trolley.

Historic Clarke Cook House origin

Sea-captain Clarke Cooke built the original house just across from the wharfs on Thames Street in 1780. Nearly 200 years later, as part of a plan to restore Bannister’s Wharf to its original glory as a commercial hub, David Ray purchased the building and spent six months moving it, piece-by-piece, to the wharf in 1973.

Newport Living and Lifestyles Rocks the Vanderbilt

Newport, RI. | July 4, 2022

Newport is known by many names; City by the Ocean, Sailing Capital of the World… but it is also home to some of the best kept summertime secrets in the Northeast.

Once again, Newport Living and Lifestyles opens the door on the best that Newport has to offer. A velvet rope gets set aside and you instantly have access to the Rooftop Bar atop The Vanderbilt Auberge Resort Hotel. Perched high on the hill that rises above the harbor in the Historic Hill neighborhood, this one-time mansion is now a luxe accommodation with a spa, library-lounge, a solarium patio for brunch and a cozy dark bar-restaurant where craft cocktails and the occasional secret are shared.

This night, the NL&L faithful gathered for drinks and small plates on the rooftop and Newport’s most epic harbor view. As the sun set over the bridge, cool breezes brought out the sweaters and shawls, but nothing could beat the warm glow of good friends, cocktails and fireworks.

Want to join the party?  Newport Living & Lifestyles and check out the NL&L Events Calendar , We hope you can join us for our next event

About this event

Caroline Lewis, Managing Partner of Rogue Women’s Fund kicked off the first Wealth Strategies Series at Newport’s historic and prestigious Tennis Hall of Fame. A light lunch was served as Caroline discussed the benefits of venture capital as an investment diversification strategy and the impact and return potential of investing in women-led technology companies.

By 2030, American women are expected to control much of the $30 trillion in financial assets — a potential wealth transfer of such magnitude that it approaches the annual GDP of the United States. Women-led companies represent 46% of all US businesses and is growing at a rate of 112%. However, only 2% of all venture capital dollars are invested in women-led companies. Women are being left out of a massive wealth generating asset class with only 8% of venture partners and 4% of venture fund investors being women.

Caroline Lewis is the Managing Partner of Rogue Women’s Fund and Kauffman Fellow. Caroline joined Rogue Venture Partners in 2018, leading a new strategy to focus on women-led tech companies. Rogue was founded in 2011 and has continually performed in the top quartile for all venture funds – returning ~300% on Funds I and II. In just two years, Rogue Women’s Fund I invested $2MM in 11 companies that have gone on to raise over $30MM, employ over 100 people, and provide a 20% base return to investors. Capitalizing on the success of Fund I – Rogue Women is building towards a larger Fund II to 10x its impact and returns. Caroline currently sits on two non-profit boards and six portfolio company boards.

A special thank you to Curt Meyer for helping to kick off our first guest speaker and organizing the space and speaker before I even realized it was happening. He is a connector who is relationship-focused in his approach to life, to people, and to business. I should have realized he has a degree in communications, because folks, he is witty! But not only does he have great sense of humor and outlook on life he has a strong business acumen with Over 25-years in asset management, and instrumental in the business development of over $6 Billion of assets across the collective industry.  2ndly Curt is also the Founder and Managing Partner of Truscott Partners, LLC which is active in philanthropy and private investments and has invested in many local schools, non-profits and start ups. BUT more importantly – Curt is an avid tennis player, played 4 years of Varsity tennis, is a member of the Tennis Hall of Fame and currently serves on the Advisory Board of The International Tennis Hall of Fame’s youth development program for under privileged children in our community- located at the Canfield house. I am sure we will be seeing you at the annual fundraiser.
