Sunday’s Social Rounds
Sunday began badly. Map problems. Car problems. Phone problems. Camera problems. Shopping problems. Nobody knows how deaf and blind I am without a functioning iPhone.
Kayla Williams, Jen Hoover and Shondi Pugh
The first respite was secured at a small baby shower for colleague Peter Mongillo and Becky D’Orsogna at the Travis Country home of Sarah and Jeff Beckham. Best overheard comment: “Yeah, I’m going with pink,” D’Orsogna says. “I know, I’m all women’s studies and gender neutrality, but pink for this baby.”
Monty Muir, Amy Martin and Matt Muir
Once I found it, the next oasis was the Zoolander Party at Jen Hoover’s cute Pearl Hair and Make-Up Studio at West Avenue and 29th Street. (Flying blind because of an overheated iPhone.) Everyone was darling, although, no, I didn’t put on a Zoolander wig and prop up one of the movie’s beloved lines. My favorite: “Obey my dog!” Although I’d alter it to: “Obey my blog!”
Three mistresses of celebrity and gossip: Laurie Lyons, Heather Brady and Dani Dudek
All the coursing around meant I missed the Recycled Fashion Show at AMOA. Later, I skipped the Fashion Most Wanted at the Belmont. Just, you know, the heat and the technical difficulties …
But new friends Ian Carrico and Carter Wilsford accompanied me to Cameron Lockley’s sizzling new Latin restaurant, La Sombra on Burnet Road. Now that cooled and smoothed out the day!
