One of NYC's best bars is coming to Hawksmoor Chicago for one night only
You don't get named number five on North America's 50 Best Bars list without taking some risks. Sip & Guzzle, a two-level cocktail haven in New York City's West Village expertly stirs buzzy NYC nightlife with Japanese cocktail culture. And, now, for one night, and one night only, that acclaimed drinks team have partnered up with Hawksmoor Chicago, a Windy City favorite well-known for its midwestern hospitality and steak-and-seafood spread.
What began in east London in 2006 has evolved into a culinary juggernaut with restaurants in New York and Chicago, earning Hawksmoor placement on the World's Best Steak Restaurant list as well as James Beard Foundation mentions and Tales of
the Cocktail accolades. So you can expect to be in very good hands with this pop-up match-up, which takes over the Chicago venue tonight, June 13 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. (final entry is at 9:30 p.m.
Attendees can expect two different bar vibes, all in one epic night: Guzzle will bring crushable cocktails and highballs, while Sip will deliver refined, Japanese-style creations. Plus, the Hawksmoor bar team will also be serving up select cocktails from their own menu. Those boozy tipples will be available for purchase a la carte, on Hawksmoor's second-floor bar while supplies last. While walk-in imbibers are welcome, reservations are recommended— RSVP via Evite is encouraged but does not guarantee a reservation.
The Sip & Guzzle Chicago takeover is a natural fit, given the Windy City cred of the team behind the NYC bar: owners Shingo Gokan's and Steve Schneider's combined resume includes not only NYC favorites like Angel's Share and Employees Only but also Chicago powerhouse Alinea, where chef Mike Bagale—who's in charge of the high-meets-low bar fare, including that $150 Wagyu sandwich—once served as the executive chef.

Father's Day ideal gift as dads get free day of adventure this weekend
It's that time of year again when we get to celebrate the special dads in our life - and we have the perfect Father's Day present for those who want nothing this weekend Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 June Treating Dad on Father's Day doesn't have to cost a fortune - in fact it's often the thoughtful gifts that cost nothing - or don't cost much at all that are priceless. So mums of small children - or any kids for that matter aged between 3 and 15 - will be glad to know that they can take Dad out this Father's Day and actually save money in the process! Knowsley Safari Park near Liverpool is hosting a 'Dads go Free' day out this weekend (Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th June) as long as you book online before the weekend. And if he'd prefer the day to himself, mum can bring the kids and she can go free instead! The Father's Day deal actually covers one adult in each car going free with a full-paying child all weekend saving you at least £22.50 on your entrance fee. It's also great for those single parent families where mum often takes on the role of both mum and dad! It promises to be a great day out because the Safari is buzzing with new life following the births of lovable goat kids on the Nature Trail, as well as rare Père David's and Axis deer on the five-mile Savannah-style Safari Drive. There are more than 500 animals wandering around the park including African lions, Bactrian camels, wildebeest and one of the UK's largest rhino crashes. Dad can stretch his legs on the Foot Safari, visiting the Russian-inspired Tiger Trail, home to Amur tigers Makari and Yuki. And there are giraffes, meerkats and Andean bears – the species that inspired Paddington. When Dad's ready to put his feet up, you could treat him to some freshly prepared lunch in the Oasis Restaurant or The Outpost Kitchen or even save a bob or two by bringing along your own picnic. Helena Berry, head of marketing and sales at Knowsley Safari says: 'Dads going free is a win-win for the whole family - a fabulous gift for adventurous dads and the kids are going to love it just as much as him!'. Knowsley Safari Park often runs promotions where one adult goes free throughout the year so it's worth planning a visit to coincide with one of these special offers as it will save you money. Typically, the park runs a Mother's Day promotion in March and sometimes has 'Kids go free' offers during school holidays so the whole family can have fun for less. One adult goes free per car with a full-paying child. Offer applies to visits on Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th June 2025 only. Bookings must be made in advance online and can't be used in conjunction with any other offer. One adult per car goes *free with a full-paying child ticket (children aged 3–15 years).

The under-the-radar high street brands that have upped their game this summer – and everything our fashion editor is buying
On the hunt for new brands? Instead I urge you to rediscover the handful of style stalwarts that have had a glow up. M&S is leading the charge on reinvention across the high street. In 2019 its clothing sales declined 5.5 per cent and there were plans to oust its frumpy garment department altogether. After targeting younger customers and modernising its aesthetic, six years on it stocks sell-out items and collaborates with the likes of Sienna Miller. Last year clothing sales jumped 4.7 per cent producing an operating profit of £242.2m. These are the other revamped brands to have on your radar now. FRENCH CONNECTION A few years ago I would have tagged this brand as an overpriced occasionwear outlet. Now I'd happily add most of its 'new in' section to my basket. Its head of design Helen Gallagher says, 'We've worked hard to reintroduce that bold, confident edge French Connection was once known for, with a new emphasis on pieces that feel wearable yet directional, and made for busy lives.' The result? A summer collection featuring clever details that make the clothes look and feel luxe. Ennis Eco Satin Column Shape Dress £140 Shop A standout piece thanks to its balloon sleeves and seashell embroidery. £69 Shop Wrap-around sarong skirts are a great alternative to your trusty midi slip. Skirt £75 Shop These are begging to be worn in the South of France. Sunglasses £45 Shop RUSSELL & BROMLEY This heritage accessories brand has steered away from reproducing the same old silhouettes and moved towards sleek pumps, kitten heels, mules and drool-worthy arm candy. For the first time in its 145-year history, design has moved in-house, with It-boy Daniel Beardsworth-Shaw as creative director. 'I'm aiming to tell the story of this iconic brand through innovation and an updated direction,' he says. His vision comes into full effect from autumn this year, but the latest styles on offer already show his influence – the suede bag collection is unmatched. I'm loving the rich brown shade and buckle strap. Strappy Heeled Sandal £245 Shop Bag £295 Shop These 70s-inspired platform mules will work with wide-leg jeans or linen trousers. Sandals £195 Shop Chocolate suede is everywhere: nail the trend with this investment piece. Bag MINT VELVET Two years ago you'd be pushed to find a gem on this brand's rails, but now Mint Velvet is packed with styles that end up with wait lists. Its aesthetic has evolved from mumsy to must-have, thanks to creative director Lucy Bevan, who says, 'We design for women who want to look put-together without trying too hard. Our focus is on creating effortless silhouettes with just the right amount of polish.' Which is why its holiday edit is one to watch. This ruffled one-piece is super flattering. Swimsuit £69 Shop Sea-themed charms will amp up the simplest of summer looks. £32 Shop RADLEY Founded in 1998 by Australian architect-turned-designer Lowell Harder, this London-based brand made its name selling mid-price bags featuring its Scottie-dog mascot. But to quote Florence Welch, 'the dog days are over'. Thanks to new design director Fernando Soriano Iglesias, Radley's focus is now on stealth wealth-looking totes and the sort of bags you'll find trending on Instagram. His experience at Calvin Klein, Carolina Herrera and Loewe is already evident in in this season's polished offerings. Croc bag £109 Shop This faux-croc number will fit your laptop, notebook, sunglasses and kitchen sink. Bag These gladiators are giving Gwyneth Paltrow vibes. I have my eye on this squishy grab bag. Bag £239, now £143 Shop ARRANGE AT ASOS My mum would say Asos is far too young for her – she'd also question the quality. But the digital outlet's premium Arrange line is a far cry from its usual fast-fashion offerings. Rather than trend-led, the range is timeless, mature, features designs in 100 per cent cotton, leather and silk – and has a curve section. It does especially fabulous, yet modest, occasionwear that looks far more expensive than it is. Maxi dress £130 Shop Chartreuse is becoming the next shade of yellow to covet now. Dress £130 Shop Arrange also does a fine line in party tops: see this asymmetric striped find. Top £65 Shop For the brave, these leather city shorts will look très chic with a white linen shirt and kitten heels. GAP You may associate this Californian export with denim and white T-shirts, but its premium Gap Studio line – designed by creative director Zac Posen – went viral when Anne Hathaway wore a £120 white poplin shirtdress from the range last summer. The brand has gone from strength to strength since, with White Lotus star Parker Posey (below) fronting its latest campaign. That hit shirtdress in navy polka dots. Dress £120 Shop This asymmetric short trench is a great twist on a classic. Jacket £125 Shop Gap's jeans are still fabulous and well priced: these horseshoe ones have sold out twice.

Kanye West appears at federal courthouse to support Diddy
This is a free article for Diddy on Trial newsletter subscribers. to get exclusive reporting and analysis throughout Sean Combs' federal trial. Today, U.S. government prosecutors called two witnesses in an apparent attempt to add texture to their portrait of Diddy's drug-fueled 'freak offs' and his lifestyle as the head of an alleged criminal conspiracy. Here's what you need to know: Andre LeMon, a Department of Homeland Security investigator who led the search of Diddy's vast home in Los Angeles last year, said agents found 900 bottles of Astroglide lubricant, 200 bottles of baby oil and a cache of weapons, including AR-15-style firearms, Smith & Wesson rifles and a Ruger rifle. Jonathan Perez, one of Diddy's former personal assistants, recounted finding a video recording of a 'freak off' featuring Diddy's ex-girlfriend 'Jane' on a company iPad. Perez said Diddy kept cash, cocaine, ketamine, Adderall, Xanax and molly in a Gucci pouch — a must-have for the 'king nights' the defendant spent in hotels with women. Perez, under cross-examination from defense lawyerBrian Steel, said Jane appeared to be a willing participant in 'king nights.' Perez agreed with Steel that those nights took place on Diddy's personal time, outside of work — complicating the U.S. government's allegation that the defendant used professional resources to run a criminal enterprise. ALSO: Juror #6 could be dismissed from the panel after he allegedly gave conflicting answers about where he lives. Judge Arun Subramanian is going to make a decision next week on whether to remove and replace the juror in question. — Daniel Arkin, national reporter 🔎 The view from inside By Adam Reiss, Chloe Melas, Katherine Koretski and Jing Feng Ye, the controversial hip-hop artist formerly known as Kanye West, arrived at the courthouse today in an apparent show of support for Diddy. The scene was wild, with reporters running for the elevators or sprinting across the outdoor promenade to get a closer look. Ye's appearance was notable partly because so few high-profile celebrities have publicly aligned themselves with Diddy since he came under federal investigation. However, Ye didn't enter the courtroom. He left the building after about 30 minutes, following a brief stop in the overflow area. In other news: Maurene Comey, one of the prosecutors, complained to the judge that Diddy was 'nodding emphatically' as his ex-girlfriend Jane and the Homeland Security agent testified. Steel pushed back, saying his client has been 'nothing but professional.' Subramanian, who scolded Diddy's team last week after the rapper apparently made facial expressions at jurors, told Comey it would be 'impossible to police' everyone in the courtroom but made clear 'we will keep an eye out' for any inappropriate behavior. Diddy appeared to be experiencing sinus congestion today, grabbing tissues and blowing his nose audibly on a few occasions. He appeared engaged in the proceedings, seeming to listen closely to the federal agent's testimony and regularly passing sticky notes to his attorneys. 👨⚖️ Analysis: The character question By Danny Cevallos One thing federal prosecutors are really good at is finding a way to bring in evidence that has little to do with the alleged crimes, but makes the defendant look really bad. We've heard a lot of testimony about Diddy's girlfriends finding out about his apparent romantic trips with other women. We've heard about Combs getting caught going to the Caribbean with another woman. More recently, Jane and Perez testified about Jane finding out Diddy took another woman on a trip to Wyoming. Diddy cheating on his girlfriends has virtually nothing to do with sex trafficking or racketeering. It shows how assistants helped cover up and facilitate Diddy's lifestyle. But the cheating? Not really essential to any element of a crime. Instead, there's one piece of evidence that the prosecution wants to introduce but is largely prohibited from doing so: his bad character. Evidence of a defendant's lousy morality is usually inadmissible because it's unfair. We don't want juries convicting defendants because they are bad people. We want juries to convict defendants because they are guilty of that particular crime. Evidence of bad character is just too powerful: It's hard for us to give anyone — let alone a criminal defendant — a fair chance after we've heard they've done terrible things. Prosecutors know this. That's why they try to find ways to crowbar this kind of evidence into the case (lawfully, of course). The prosecution is expected to rest its case sometime next week. PSA: Every night during Diddy's trial, NBC's 'Dateline' will drop special episodes of the 'True Crime Weekly' podcast to get you up to speed. 'Dateline' correspondent Andrea Canning chats with NBC News' Chloe Melas and special guests — right in front of the courthouse. Listen here.
