File Under Ew: Fashion Meets Finance

New York's latest social club unabashedly pairs fashionistas and number crunchers, claiming they make the best mates. Hot, stylish ladies and money-making gentlemen? Wow, how original.

The club's exploits were first reported by New York Magazine a couple of weeks ago, and apparently their first gathering was just last week. How do we know that? Well, The New York Times actually deigned to cover it.

Appropriately, the venue was Nikki Beach in midtown Manhattan, where a collective of slim, fashionable ladies rubbed elbows with suited money-makers. According to the Times, the text with the latest invitation practically invited mockery, encouraging women to hold the line until the end of the recession, because there's still a chance for them to become "tennis moms." We repeat: Ew.
