When model and "wannabe-socialite" Kashmir Snowdon-Jones committed thousands of dollars worth of credit card fraud "to get back at" a friend her peers predicted she'd get out of charges using her feminine wiles and upper Manhattan fortunes. But now, charged with grand larceny and identity theft, it seems unlikely she'll be able to completely evade the consequences of her unauthorized purchases. According to the victim Jennifer Hirsch, "I told my parents that it wasn't going to end. She is going to get away with it like she always does with everyone else's money. I didn't want her to hurt anyone else as she had done to me. So that's when l said, let's go to NYPD."
Contemporaries, who see Snowdon-Jones out at clubs like Southside, Butter, 1Oak and The Eldridge nearly seven nights a week say she's a bona fide party girl, but that's all. "I don't really count going to 1Oak as being a socialite," said one member of her social circle. "She sleeps every day until 8 p.m., then goes out all night and just goes crazy."
But when her credit card activities—which included charging over $4000 in leggings, pizza and burritos to Hirsch's card—came to the surface, other stories came with them: it's rumored that she "borrowed" a $20,000 necklace from DJ Jus Ske and that she allowed former-flame Ignazio Ciprani to buy her things, beyond the limits of good taste. "We were in a store and she charged thousands of dollars on Ignazio's credit card and signed her name as Kashmir Cipriani," said one anonymous source.
At first Snowdon-Jones told a Daily Beast reporter she wanted to tell her story, but threw out cliches in lieu of an explanation. "I don't want to keep things going with people who threw me under the bus and add more fuel to the fire," she wrote in an email. "I've got a lot going on and I'm very overwhelmed."
