Gala s, Wedding s, Shopping s...and greasy food... LOL

Beverly Wilshire Hotel

I have been away for a long time :(((

Thank you for all your messages and support!

Finally on a law tuesday night i found the time to concetrate and write my BLOG and tell you all about what has been going on lately...

where to start?

Lets start from the AMAZING John Wayne Cancer Institude annual Gala

It was at the Beverly Wilshire HOTEL, which is totally magnificent!

if you have seen the movie Pretty Woman- who hasn't right:)
thats the Hotel that it was filmed at...

When Julia Roberts was walking in the lobby back from her shopping spree at Rodeo Drive, ahhh FAB!

i couldnt find the picture for that scene- but heres another one, 

where they are leaving Beverly Wilshire Hotel for the OPERA in San Fransicso

I think i have seen this movie like 30 times LOL

so anyways the Gala was an amazing night-the entairtainment was by Rachael MacFarlane( American Dad, Family Guy)

and Lots of donation from supporters, especially during the live auction!

I want to talk about the Institude- because their work and research on cancer is so remarkable- very happy to support this cause...I beleive that all of us; one way or abother affected by this horrible disease...families... loved ones...friends...so when its time to show and give back to this kind of resarch i am very willing to be a part of it...

I am so loving my look! my stylist did a great job

details:

dress: Roberto Cavalli

shoes: Christian Louboutin

clutch: Nordstrom

necklace: from Istanbul

My hairstylist Mina did my hair- A FAB updo!

my secret is that we add this little bump on the top for the pony tail

I loveee that style

next time for this updo- i will have my sides pulled back even tighter-so that the bump would look more significant!

my make up is by Melanie
she is with Sephora
some of the girls there are just fantastic thats why i actually take time to drive over there and get it done!

.....

so after this Glamourous event- i had my Tommy's Burger craving which is almost always...
Tommy's Burger is this little corner place- well right now they made it into a big chain restaurant :)
but i like the original location which is in LA close to downtown-where it all started

i never drive there myself, its always with my friends so honestly i still don't know the exact adress but everybody knows Tommy's Burger in LA
easy to find out!
and
its always open 24/7

and you will see limousines pulled up people in gowns and tuxedos eating the most delicious greasy food in the world

Chili BURGER
and
Chili Fries
YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

dont i always say that my easting habits can get really out of control:)

This LOVELY Wedding Setting is for my friend Michelle's mom Suki and her husband

that i went to last weekend
it is most definitely one of the greatest weddings i have been to

sometimes, some weddings can go crazy with the beads and the decorations and the over bearing details

Michelle did a great job- as she helped a lot to her mom
it was so neat and chic and classy

I love classy elegance

I have many pictures of the Bride and the Groom- but wanted to keep their privacy, cant post them sorry...but they looked AMAZING, a great-in love couple

i cut myself off of this picture bec i looked horrible:)))

you might remember this dress- Cameron Diaz wore it- but sorry CAM, my friend Michelle rocked it!!!

the wedding was at Michelle's California home, so here are some pictures of her lovely decorations:

ok, so back to the TOPIC:

My lovely friend Michelle invited me to her amazing Ski Mansion in Steamboat, COLORADO

What a wonderfull!!! trip

I will tell you all about it

as usual lets start from the day of packing, right!

 first, i like to lay everything on the bed...

 I am taking my Damier LV Luggage as a carry on

 my gifts for Michelle and for her house and my sporty shoes

 I love winter stuff- this will be more like spring skiing but i still packed warmly ;) Thank GOD

 my CDC HERMES belt, i believe the color is etain

 my HERMES Jumping boots in etoupe

 my FURLA hat, loveee this hat

 Burberry earmuffs, sooo cute

 some of the accessories i am taking

 the brushes that i am taking

i will be gone for 3 days...so i guess this will be enough

which never is LOL

.....

so, I arrive in Steamboat and OMG such a small westerntown,

so peaceful so amazing

so picturesque

Steamboat Downtown

before heading to the house- quick stop at a local market- everything is Organic- it was GREAT!!!

First night we went out to this restaurant called LAUNDRY

 very cozy, ski mountain type of place

if you are EVER in Steamboat you just have to go there!

BEST food i have had since Argentina ( i was in Argentina this last Christmas and gained like 4 pounds,,,i think that explains it all LOL )

Anyways sometimes its very hard to find this kind of taste in Southern California-
everything tasted DELICIOUS in COLORADO

you know what the secret is- it was very well prepaired- not some trendy place where food is pretentious but nothing is really special- you know what i mean right!

well... at Laundry everything was specially prepared...you could just tell...

 look at this pickle jar that we ordered...OMG to die for

 the steak was legendery- with the sauce underneath it, ah!!!

friesss, yummm

-ok, i really want you to go try it- so this is all i will tell right now..;)

this was my outfit for that night

FURLA hat

DOLCE & GABBANA blue top

RALP LAUREN riding pants

HERMES jumping boots

HERMES necklace

FAB!!!

.....

 i am always organized no matter where i go...

 my room, it was so cozy... most comfortable i have ever been staying at somebody's house

 next day, Michelle with Paris

I had to put my HERMES BIRKIN in this becasue it was snowing that day :)

great solution

 my outfit: the vest i am wearing is a very special FOX Fur

so that day Michelle and I were like- "maybe instead of skiing we should walk arond a little bit...explore the town..."

which we did and guess what we explored an AMAZING Fur shop:

STEVEN"S

A store with a lot of SOUL... that is the best way to describe it

its not just some fur shop- the collectibles the decore- everything

OMG i never see stores like this in LA

Michelle and i went completely crazy- not just shopping but we were having so much fun- unbelivable

Michelle bought those for her house

FUR Teddys

great store- i had incredible time!

&

i look damn good in this :)

.....

 crem Brule- this is what i had that night

people who know me personally, knows that my eating habbits can be horrible sometimes or maybe even often

 hence, the breakfast that i had the next morning, this is insane

 Thank GOD, i have skied after this crazy breakfast
burned off some calories

Michelle really helped me a lot with my ski fear
-I have been skiing for years but one day i just got so scared- literally i couldn't ski anymore
...rescue team came up and picked me up at the slopes in Utah,
it was that bad   :(...

but with Michelle I was able to start very slowly...just enjoying it and got more and more comfy...Spring skiing is definately the way to go...

.....

For the very last night we decided to stay in

and order pizza

and watch a movie

and do some facial while watching the movie

how great is that!!!

so

since the pizza place didn't have delivery- we had to go pick it up ourselves

the name of the place is Blue Sage Pizza

it was phenomenal!

Michelle is holding all the pizza

our eating habbits are out of control!!!

 pizza is set the movie is set ( The DUDE- its a fun movie)

time for the facial

its this a ready to use facial mask that Michelle gets from the Korean Store

oh, felt so good!

we kept it on for 40 minutes than finished it off with REN oil free moisture- lotion

.....

ah what a trip...

it was a great getaway for me...as heading back to LA so much stuff is waiting for me, 

work work work

before we leave heres some pics of the house

there is a fireplace in every corner

FAB!

Ladybug...Lovee her

.....

bye bye Steamboat!
