CAPRI S. CAFARO

WHO: Political commentator, Washington Examiner contributor, and former State Senate Minority Leader of Ohio. CAMERA-READY: “I buy all my dresses for TV pretty exclusively at Karen Millen (1259 Wisconsin Ave., 202-333-0280; karenmillen.com). The clothes are professional and stylish— easy to dress up or down.” REFRESHER COURSE: “I always popped into Bluemercury’s flagship (3059 M St. NW, 202-965-1300; bluemercury.com) when I was a grad student at Georgetown. This combo spa-shop offers top-of-the-line services and skincare products—the perfect pampering destination.” COMFORTING THOUGHT: “The original is on Barracks Row, but I like the Ted’s Bulletin on 14th Street (1818 14th St. NW, 202-2658337; tedsbulletin.com). As someone who loves to bake, I’m like a kid in a candy store when checking out their baked goods. They’re known for their pies and Pop-Tarts, made in-house.” DATE NIGHT: The Alex (1075 Thomas Jefferson St. NW; thegrahamgeorgetown.com) at the Graham Hotel. You need a code to get into this speakeasy in the basement. [Note: Get the code at the hotel’s front desk.] It has craft cocktails, live jazz, and a romantic atmosphere.”
