Glamazons,
My interview with Bevy Smith over Belvedere Pink Grapefruit cocktails was only the beginning. To celebrate the launch of Belvedere Pink Grapefruit, Bevy hosted a themed dinner followed by a glamorous party called “In the Pink.”
Held on Friday night, “In the Pink” brought out the top names in Entertainment, Media and Fashion, including Keri Hilson, Sessilee Lopez, Alek Wek and Rosie Perez to name a few. A Dinner with Bevy creation, the party and dinner celebrated bold, vibrant women in media, like Ms. Bevy herself.
We were happy to be invited to the soirée because Bevy knows how to throw a party! She was a kind and gracious host (she gave me a great big hug when I saw her) and looked glorious in a pink, belted v-neck dress, to match Belvedere Pink Grapefruit of course! The decor was also rooted in pink as a nod to the beautiful kaftan Matthew Williamson designed for the launch.
While toasting Belvedere’s new sultry, summer flavor, guests danced all night to tunes spun by the one-and-only Questlove. When he played songs like “Don’t Worry ‘Bout a Thing” by Stevie Wonder, he got the crowd of actors, media personalities and makeup artists to work it out on the dance floor.
And who was in the crowd, you ask? Well, in the VIP section alone, I spotted Angela Yee, Necole Bitchie, Tristan Wilds, Fonsworth Bentley, Michaela Angela Davis, AJ Calloway, Mimi Valdes (and her gorg haircut), Sister Toldja of The Beautiful Struggler and Belle of A Belle in Brooklyn, in addition to the celebs I named above.
Ferocia and I even chatted it up with Keri Hilson (she’s so sweet!), superstar publicist B.J. Coleman and celebrity makeup artist, A.J. Crimson, who said he’s proud of our blog (this clearly made our night! he’s totally OUR inspiration).
In the midst of all the dancing, catching up, chatting and mingling, Ferocia got a few minutes to speak with the beautiful Sessilee Lopez in VIP.
Read below to see what Sessilee had to say about her summer vacation plans (Russia and Jamaica!), Christian Siriano and why she’s Team Naomi Campbell.
Ferocia: Tell us what you’re wearing!
Sessilee: Well, I’m in head to toe in one of the most amazing designers. His name is, I don’t know if you know him, Christian Siriano.
Great post! I really enjoyed the interview with Sessilee. I think its amazing that she's traveling to Russia with Naomi! But i must say She may seem sweet as pie now but when you travel with people you tend to see the good, bad, and ugly of them! (YA know lol) so maybe she will see what's really up with Naomi.
