The Texas-born beauty treated New York City like her own private playground, floating from penthouse sunsets to courtside seats, from the city\u2019s most impossible to book dining rooms to late-night hotspots where only the boldfaced names get waved in.<\/p>\n<p>Her weekend began high above the skyline, where she shared a sunset view from her NoMad penthouse, a silhouette framed against a Manhattan horizon streaked in pink and gold. From there, she slipped into a weekend that read like a socialite\u2019s private diary. McGuairt-Salazar secured a table at Crane Club, the reservation everyone wants and almost no one gets, before heading to The Plaza for high tea, where she blended into the old-NewYork elegance as if she\u2019d been raised on it. The socialite capped her nights with after-hours festivities at Marquee and Pergola, where the city\u2019s celebrity and socialite circles converge.<\/p>\n<p>McGuairt-Salazar wasn\u2019t alone in her Manhattan jaunt. Her husband, Dallas C. Salazar, a commodities venture capitalist whose empire spans oil, gas, and now trucking, was in town making a run on Wall Street. Salazar\u2019s latest<a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/e-f-hutton-advises-two-165200996.html?guccounter=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-nyp-affiliate=\"true\"> acquisition<\/a>, a major trucking company, adds another jewel to the couple\u2019s growing industrial portfolio. Together, they\u2019ve quietly become a visible couple with influence, visibility, and reach growing in tandem with their wealth. McGuairt-Salazar\u2019s rise in New York\u2019s social and fashion circles is closely connected to the business ventures they\u2019re building together, a modern blend of Texas oil grit and Manhattan polish.<\/p>\n<p>But the crown jewel of her weekend was Saturday night at Madison Square Garden. A diehard Knicks fan, Jami returned to her signature courtside seats for the Knicks-Suns matchup on January 17. Dressed in a chic blue dress that embellished her waist, cinched belt, and fur coat, she turned the front row into a runway. Cameras caught her laughing, cheering, and chatting with other VIPs, the kind of effortless courtside glam that has become her calling card.<\/p>\n<p>Whether she\u2019s sipping tea at The Plaza, whispering over champagne about her husband\u2019s next big takeover, or cheering courtside in fur, Jami McGuairt-Salazar continues to deliver the aspirational escapism her audience can\u2019t get enough of.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New York Post newsroom and editorial staff were not involved in the creation of this content.\u00a0 Jami McGuairt-Salazar&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":142955,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[60041,75,84,83,9,24,63,8092],"class_list":{"0":"post-142954","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-manhattan","8":"tag-contributor-content","9":"tag-manhattan","10":"tag-manhattan-headlines","11":"tag-manhattan-news","12":"tag-new-york","13":"tag-new-york-city","14":"tag-nyc","15":"tag-socialites"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/142954","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=142954"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/142954\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/142955"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=142954"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=142954"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=142954"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
