9th Annual Doris Bergman Style & Lounge Party at Fig and Olive Benefits Wednesday’s Child

The Emmys officially kicks off the award season in tinsel town.  The only way to roll out the red carpet for celebs is with a welcoming lounge party in pre-celebration.  The Style and Lounge Party presented by Doris Bergman has become the inaugural event for the ninth year in a row.

It showcases some of the finest quality goods on the market and a sneak peak for some yet to come.  The real honor of being a part of this event  goes to the heart of the matter.  The official charity, Wednesday’s Child, is there to greet you with open arms  to accept donations.  Wednesday’s Child is a foster care program for teens aged 13-18.  It is a wonderful organization and we recommend you visit  FOXLA.com/WednesdaysChild to to donate clothes, electronics, monetary gifts, or the best gift of all, a home for a young child.

There were so many wonderful vendors at the beautiful Fig & Olive Restaurant on Melrose place.  We were beyond delighted that Heather Marinnara was front and center with her Beauty Kitchen Line.  If you want to know the secret to WOWing in a backless gown, it’s her BODY POLISH!  This woman took yummy, all natural ingredients and put them in the only bag you’ll need to look, feel, AND smell your best!
Once your skin has gotten that glow, you must ensure that your smile is dazzling just as bright.   Short on time, or just need to multi task and send that email, too?  Mobile White Advanced Teeth Whitening has you covered.  How would you like to whiten your teeth utilizing the power of your cell phone battery?  Did you just exclaim, “Why didn’t I think of that?!”  That’s exactly what we did once introduced to this revolutionary product.  Our cell phones really DO control us!

Now, that we are pretty and polished, it’s time to dress up the outside.  Sue Wong wants to wrap you in her silky garments, for the ladies, while Art Lewin BeSpoke has the men covered in signature suits.  Accessories are what makes a look, a statement!  Twisted Silver has you covered in handmade, unique necklaces and bracelets made from precious metals and recycled leather.   Want to look like a million bucks, but not break the bank?  Diamond Veneer jewelry will have you paparazzi ready at a fraction of the cost.  For a party on the go, Porto Vino Wine Purse will keep you fashionable and fun at any event.  Their handbags can conceal two bottles of wine in it’s secure and discreet inner pouch with stop pour spout…  I’ll see you at the Hollywood Bowl!

The Emmy Lounge literally thought of everything.  Once you’ve gone out and need to come home to decompress, slip into a comfy Goldinger Vintage T-shirt, while sipping on some smooth Precious Vodka.  It’s a six-time, award winner from Bulgaria.  We were very lucky to get an exclusive taste since it isn’t available in California yet!  Definitely put everyone in a party mood 😉

My final stops were to improve me from the inside out.  Green Horizen CBD is one, if not, the only CBD company with nearly 100% hemp oil as it’s ingredients and nothing else.  Do the research and you’ll see for yourself.  There are so many benefits n the horizon from the use of hemp.  I was completely in awe of her poise, beauty, and knowledge of Dr. Orie Achononwa, Founder of Nourish Modern Wellness.  It is a leading holistic lifestyle whose ingredients are all natural and essential.  Her company is based out of Texas but renowned worldwide.   She decided to invest fully in holistic healing after her own health issues.  She is a walking testament of her own products.  Dr. Achononwa was glowing from the inside out.  This particular product gets my personal stamp of approval and coveted “GO GET IT NOW” seal!
