I’ve only read about the La Prairie Cellular Cream Platinum Rare and seen the bottle but am seduced by the promises and design of the packaging. It’s beautiful on both counts. A moisturizer full of antioxidants as well as colloidal platinum (full disclosure, I have Continue reading

Honestly, that was a pretty dull Red Carpet but there were of course some beautiful ladies that walked it. And there were some great old Hollywood moments. Mila Kunis in Elie Saab (above) and Cate Blanchet in Givenchy Couture were my favorite but the ladies below looked stunning as well. And dresses aside, the films nominated this year for Best Picture are absolutely brilliant. I saw them all except for “Rabbit Hole” and “127 Hours” both of which are still on my list to see asap.
Cate Blanchet in Givenchy Couture
Florence Welch in Valentino
Natalie Portman in Rodarte

Hailee Steinfeld in Marchesa (as I predicted…)

And Jesse Eisenberg, wearing I have no idea what, I just have a massive crush on the uber-talented lad, especailly after that NPR interview today. Brilliant. It was a fun night with the Oscars at the InStyle viewing party. Thanks ladies!
Last night Prism gallery hosted an opening for Clare Rojas‘ paintings which are really phenomenal. I love the graphic shapes and colors and soulful energy of the work. Totally obsessed. It’s up through April 2nd if you get the chance at 8746 W. Sunset Boulevard, West Hollywood. Me with one of my clients, Taryn Manning, at the opening below… Continue reading

It’s finally here, Paul Sevigny and André Saraiva’s new place opened last night in Hollywood. We went to Paul & Andre last night for the Purple Magazine party they hosted with Diesel. The place is somewhat hidden of course and the crowd eclectic and well mixed and the music, phenomenal. Beyond. I kept thinking it was Paul DJ’ing but Continue reading

I’m a big fan of what Art of Elysium does and actually found time to volunteer ONCE last year. Yes, I know, sad but true. I will find more time this year. They hosted an auction along with Vanity Fair at Siren Studios in Hollywood last night. It was a fun night with lots of great art and familiar faces including Helen Garber who had a painting in the silent auction that sold by the end of the night. Ginnifer Goodwin bid on a Stephanie Pryor painting similiar to the one above. I wasn’t familiar with the LA-based artist’s work but am a little obsessed now. Love the ethereal and dreamy quality.
Even after all these years I continue to be perpetually amazed at Muiccia Prada’s ability to morph and reinvent her line every season. There are only a small handful of designers that really truly invent something relatively new, without repeating themselves too much and it leaves me in awe.
