The March 2021 issue is here! Featuring our 26th Annual Social List, take a look at the notably social individuals — despite a not-so-social year — from politics, diplomacy, business, philanthropy and the arts. Our cover subjects are Eric Larsen and Susi Ganter Larsen who, in pre-pandemic times, loved to host gatherings at their home. They gave us a tour of their self-proclaimed "odd and lovely" house in Mclean, Va. where they live with their three children. "We love how things stand cheek-by-jowl in something of a chaos, but the effect, at least to our eyes, is lovely," said Eric.

Our 2020 Holiday issue is all about spirit, and specifically, the new spirit in Washington after the 46th President is sworn in. The Insider’s Guide to Bidenland looks at the team that will help the President-elect guide the nation’s destiny for the coming four years. On the topic of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, we spoke with the chairman of the White House Historical Association and Washington Post Publisher, Fred Ryan, about his book “Wine and the White House.” Washington restaurant industry veteran Andra “AJ” Johnson told us about changing local food culture in her book “White Plates, Black Faces;” and as local universities post final grades, we spoke to a few college students about the challenges of their academic experiences during lockdown. For last minute gift givers, we gathered some of our favorite diamond jewelry pieces from this season. Event coverage includes the annual Middleburg Film Festival, Wolf Trap’s “Bourbon and Bubbles, and more. Read more about our issue here: https://bit.ly/3p7gIO5. Happy holidays!

Margaret Sullivan’s townhouse is a modernist fantasy hidden in the traditional Georgetown neighborhood. With its statement black and white palette and hints of gold and greenery, the home manages to be both elegant and inviting; or as Sullivan, a Newport Beach, Calif. native, puts it, “a combination of Southern California and Washington D.C.” One unique feature is the green wall in the dining room. “That feeling of nature, however you get it, is just something that wears well,” explained Sullivan.

Leading to the last debate tonight, we chatted with CNN political commentator Chris Cillizza, former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci and Cambridge Analytica whistleblower Brittany Kaiser for three very different takes on the Nov. 3 election. Curious as to how presidents can be understood through the lens of sports? Why "The Mooch" went from Trump staffer to Trump critic? How fake news can still threaten the election?

Antique collector Robert Heggestad’s Kalaroma apartment is a time machine to centuries past. Spot the hand-painted pre-Colombian fabrics that date between 200 and 300 B.C, and the late 18th- to early 19th-century Baccarat candle chandelier. See more about Heggestad’s treasures, including the ink drawings by his artist friend Sylvia Schuster. Each purchase, he says, is moment of “true exhilaration.” Photo credit: Tony Powell. https://bit.ly/342m9WM
