Go Gold or Go Home

A few nights ago I had the pleasure of attending interior designer Kishani Perera’s book party at her Los Angeles shop Rummage for her new tome Vintage Remix: The Interiors of Kishani Perera.

I’d attended a Sephora + Pantone event earlier in the afternoon where I went more casual, but wanted to step it up in the glamour department — quite literally, as I knew actress and model Molly Sims would be at the book launch (Kishani designed Sims’ gorgeous residence).

I’ve learned my lesson not to stand next to tall beautiful blonds — at least not without really high shoes on, thankyouverymuch.

I decided on this creme brulee frock with chevron-patterned gold beading.

And then decided to go gold or go home with a glittering arm party.

Above are some snaps from the soiree, including (from l-r):  party-goers at Rummage; designer Kishani Perera and myself; my party-hopping partner in crime Jenny and I toasting with stripey straws; and, Kishani’s new book Vintage Remix, which you can scoop up here.

It was a beautiful evening made even sweeter with a night cap at Al Gelato, followed by curling up with the new issue of Domino. (Can we talk about how exciting that is?!).
