What a Concept
Westbourne Grove was hit with some serious design styling recently, as Bo Concept launched its new 2010 collection. Queen’s Park’s Ego Hair was also on hand with the amazing Shu Uemura hair range, as gorgeously coiffed girls draped themselves over even more gorgeous furniture. Guests were treated to the red-carpet treatment, and sipped mojitos and munched on delicious sushi.

Parties
The brains behind Caramel Baby & Child, Eva Karayiannis, hosted a sizzling summer party at her Ledbury Road boutique to celebrate the über-cool kids brand’s 10th anniversary. On hand to help was supermodel Natalia Vodianova, modelling the hand-painted Naked Heart Foundation T-shirt from which all proceeds will go directly to help underprivileged children in urban Russia. Refreshments were girlie and sweet with Hummingbird cupcakes, an assortment from Gail’s bakery and a vintage ice cream bike, all washed down with Ruinart Rose champagne.

Summer fun
Archant heralded in the summer, with its annual summer party. The event was a huge success, with London’s top business and property-industry insiders enjoying an afternoon of good food and good company at the Kensington Roof Gardens. The Pimms was plentiful, the rain stayed away and much fun was had by all.
