Kiki Astor in the News!
“Polo oozes sex. All that leather and sweat…” – Daily Mail.
“About a year and a half ago, “Old Money TikTok” became a phenomenon, but it’s still going strong, with figures like (…) Kiki Astor demystifying (…) what “old-money” types actually wear: L.L.Bean Boat and Totes instead of Chanel handbags, Barbour jackets instead of Blair Waldorf plaids.” –Harper’s Bazaar.
“Polo is a hyper-sexual sport. Everyone is having affairs. There is a lot of sex. You have macho men, many of whom are gorgeous and Argentinian, thundering around on horseback holding big mallets playing a game which is fast and dangerous.” –2OceansVibe
“TikTok’s ‘Old Money’ guru Kiki Astor @kikiastor unveils new romance novel, ‘Low Season In St. Tropez’ – a luxe romance mixing love, glamour, and adventure.” –Fox 59
