Let’s Party Hop Around LA

Let’s Party Hop Around LA!

Holiday party season is in full swing and here in the land of endless red carpets and dizzying flashbulbs, it’s in major overdrive. Before the season gets away from us, I thought it might be fun to share a few party pics from some recent events I’ve had the pleasure of attending.

Designer Michelle Jonas, fashion editor Sydne Summer and me at STK in Los Angeles

First up: the Michelle Jonas party at STK in LA. I joined my friend Sydne Summer for spicy martinis, mini-burgers, fab fries, and travel-friendly fashion at Beverly Hills steakhouse STK.

I had never been, so had to laugh when I walked in and realized my ensemble matched the black-and-white decor of the restaurant (my fave combo, as you know, and perhaps the reason I have “crazy eyes” in these photos…).

Or, maybe these spicy cocktails are the reason!

The space was super-chic, so when my parents came for Thanksgiving and wanted to treat us to a nice dinner out, we chose STK (thanks, Mom and Dad!).  It was really good (and compared to most other LA steakhouses, actually pretty reasonable). I’d definitely recommend it. The filet literally melts in your mouth and the sweet corn pudding is dee-vine.

Next, we made our way over to BCBG on Robertson for their holiday event, which is where I spotted this darling yellow dress. Wouldn’t it be such a fun alternative the the normal holiday party frock? It’s now on my wishlist!

We refueled with sweet macarons from Jin Patisserie…

And talked shop with Alice from BCBG, who glittered in gold.

Finally, we teetered down Robertson to the launch party of Erinn V Maison, the latest addition to LA’s design and decor scene. I fawned over — surprise! — this black-and-white beauty.

Some gorgeous leading ladies were in attendance (Garcelle Beauvais and Jamie Pressly, as seen here with designer Erinn Valencich), but I must admit I was too busy fawning over the decor to notice!

Thanks for party-hopping with me, my darlings!

Next up, we’ll go to Swarovski’s holiday lighting  ceremony on Rodeo Drive with Jessica Alba.

Until then xx!
