We gave you a taste of the
gift bag, and now a look at the fabulous, New York City - themed bon voyage soiree thrown for
LA Times’ Fashion Advertising Director
Keren Eldad by hostesses
Katrina Szish,
Jacqueline Giusti, and
Melissa Whitworth. Gift bags were indeed spectacular –
Bloomingdale’s supplied the adorable re-usable bag, and inside
OPI nailpolish,
Dylan’s Candy Bar chocolate,
Oscar Blandi highlighting pen,
New York Soap Company goodies,
My First Blush’s teeth whitening pen,
Only New York T shirt,
Tour Apothecary lotion, products from luxury British spa and skincare brand
Elemis and much more! Guests sipped champagne, and nibbled on NY-style pizza and
Fat Witch brownies. The décor was red, white and black – in keeping the with the classic I-Heart-NY logo – and included balloons, customized cocktail napkins and even themed tea light holders. The glam crew to name a few included
Tamsin Lonsdale,
William Kreitsek Jr.,
Susan Shin,
P.J. Pascual,
