Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

Well finally at 7:30 PM I am able to drag myself out of bed (stomach flu) to tell you all about Poliform’s Angeleno Partyand The Klara Porkrzywko show at Atmosphere.

The Poliform grand re-opening on Beverly was spectacular with wine by Wente Vineyard, the oldest winery in California, and culinary delights by Chef Andrea Cavaliere from Cecconi’s. In attendance were Angeleno Home Editor, Alex Abramian-Mott, Luxe Editor at Large, Michael Wollaeger, Marty Collins the developer of the sensational W residence hotel in Hollywood, Lonni Paul Design Star Finalist and Celebrity designer Liana Ried. In addition to being exquisitely crafted, Poliform is made following E1 guidelines, for strict European, emission standards, another example of how glamorous green can be. The SoCal Contractor, known to scrutinize every last detail of the built world, was immensely impressed.

Marcelle Danan recently opened a fabulous, Melrose boutique, Atmosphere, featuring some of the prettiest things I’ve ever seen made from recycled glass. We will definitely be using them over at 1525 Blue Jay Way. The stylish, French maven held an opening party on Thursday night for Klara Pokrzywko, who’s work celebrates the feminine form. She’s just back from showing in Shanghai and the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum. It’s certainly something you want to see.

Chris Martin Art

Last night the alluring Lloyd Princeton of DMC and artist Chris Martin invited a select group to view and dine. Among the who’s who were Michael Wollaeger our beloved Editor At Large for Luxe Magazine, vinter Caren Rideau of Rideau Vineyard and Hillary Atkin of the Atkin Report. I was so excited to meet Chris and learn about his colorful creations. We have a great big project to fill up on Blue Jay Way and timing is everything! Scrumptious treats were provided by Susan Feniger’s Street and the boutique vineyard Rideau served some of the smoothest Sangiovese I’ve had since the Portland Wine Festival. Everyone in the intimate gathering had a fabulous time. I was particularly thrilled with the fact the group of 20 or so WALKED from the gallery on Robertson to Chris’ lair a few blocks away. It was so very unLA and so very green!

This picture on Chris’ wall was poignant, since we’ve been contemplating a move to Miami. Have you heard about the arbitrary, additional 10% state tax that California has just attacked its citizens’ paychecks with– begining Monday? I’m not sure what kind of monkey business is going on when the seventh largest economy, with agriculture, technology, oil and entertainment can’t balance its checkbook. But it’s frightening to think taxes can be levied in such a stealth manner. I’m just sayin’.
