Much ado about development: the latest in Berwyn, Devon; Fallout from Radnor’s fallen trees; Cutting-edge beauty/wellness in Paoli; Uh-oh in Ardmore; Happy B-day Campli Photo & BMFI; Cool new companies & more

March 3, 2020 / By Caroline O'Halloran / /

After a string of hearings sometimes so raucous with foot stomping and chanting that officials asked police to stand sentry, Easttown’s zoning board has – drum roll – ruled on Berwyn Square.

Both sides claim partial victory – although, arguably, the bigger win went to the developers.

Handicapping the hats for Devon Ladies Day contest; Racial Justice Town Hall & scoops around town

May 25, 2016 / By Caroline O'Halloran / /

The Greatest Show on Turf is right around the corner.

Not the Devon Horse Show Grand Prix – although that night’s exploits are pretty swell, too.

No, the spectacle of which we speak comes on Grand Prix Eve when gals from far and wide converge on Devon for the Ladies Day Hat Contest.

What began as a homespun affair with a handful of hopefuls in horsey-trimmed straw toppers (extra points for Devon Blue!) has exploded into a paparazzi-packed proceeding of the first order.

Judge Carson Kressley Presiding. per usual.

(A blue-ribbon Saddlebred competitor as well as a style savant, Carson will be upping his hat game this year, sporting a custom design by la-di-da milliner Christine A Moore. Hey, if she’s good enough for J. Lo and Katy Perry, she’s good enough for our guy, Carson.)

Truly, the whole hat show has vaulted way over the top.

But that’s the fun of it.
