Teacups & Couture A Fashion Blog by Roxanna Bina
It’s a clear Sunday morning at the Luxe Sunset Boulevard hotel, just one day before the legendary Emmys celebration. Everyone is on the deck to set up the Emmys 2022 DPA Gift suite. Nathalie Dubois with a firm smile is leading her crew to set up all the booths with various brands to be offered to the many guests, actors, writers, producers, directors who will grace her kingdom of goodies.
We are lucky to be here as this year’ selection of over 40 worldwide brands, products and services is a pure delight for the mind, the body, and the planet. Without further due let’s elaborate about the journey taken through the many rooms of the DPA gift suite.
It all starts with the right mind-set! For this purpose, DPA suite invited Dr. Richard Garnier from Hypnomagnestism . He offered guests body scans in order to discover what you can do better to improve your health. With his natural French charm and energy, Dr. Garnier, is inviting you to elevate your spirit, open your body cells, and embrace life fully. And a full energy you need to continue your path in the DPA rooms of the gift suite. To remain elevated, we encountered ‘Scent Si Bon’ , a delightful luxury detergent and dryer sheets line, funded by the creative mind of Adrina Chebishyan. ‘Scent Si Bon’ will almost give you the joy within when doing your laundry duties and it will bring freshness and a touch of a permanent spring to your clothes.
Once you have achieved inner harmony with some good scent clothes and a clear mind, you need to beautify your appearance with some hat from Heather Marie . There is always a twist with Marie’s hats: for once she puts all of her love and passion in making them. Then, like the cap I got for my wife, she adorns some unique gems, in that case gems representing the 7 chakras or other ornaments. Needless to say, that when you walk the streets, you will feel totally empowered and ready to kick assess!
Once you head, your mind is covered by Heather Marie’s creations, you need to put on some bling-bling, whether on your writs, your fingers or around your neck. DPA suites invited a few brilliant jewelry creators. ‘Bullet-N-Beads’ is an amazing endeavor run by former police officer and a Veteran, Paulena Gidda . It’s an ethical jewelry brand that utilizes real previously fired bullet and bullet casings, Swarovski crystals and semi-precious stones to create small batch limited release pieces. It’s truly a majestic and an honorable endeavor, make sure you get yours and fire at life with a happy smile. To perfect your inner and outer brightness I’d like to recommend the jewels from Vincent D’Aleo: ‘Fallen Stars’ . These diamonds are handmade from a mine in Herkimer, N.Y and it will turn you into a shooting star to rock the streets of Hollywood and any living walking stars universe. Before we move onto feeding our souls with some yummy food and inspired drinks, let’s salute Véronique Thibeault with her jewelry line: ‘Bijoux Sail Away’ . Here line is so popular that actress Jackie Tohn wore a gorgeous set et the 2022 Emmy’s award ceremony. Each piece is unique and made with love.
And just to top your beautiful smile when wearing all of these luxurious items don’t forget to use the handcrafted organic lip hydration from G12 Generation. Their products are made by a family of athletes and they believe that what you put “in” and “on” your body affects your health and performance. Give yourself a chance at excellence and use G12 Generation line.
Now that you look fabulous and on your way to the next party why don’t you indulge on some gourmet food from ‘Kozet Kuisine’ with their authentic middle eastern touch! . Curated by Louisa Sharamatyan, eating her delicious line of gourmet meals will make you travel all over the orient and give you some chills of pleasure. Add an handmade deserts from ‘What a treat’, her sister’s company, with some classics like the banana pudding or an Ashta desert tray that you can find at A&A grocery store in the Kozanian shopping center on Glendale avenue. Who said that paradise isn’t on earth?!
Before you end the night with some “spirits” I recommend a stop at ‘Carvery Kitchen’ . This has been my kids favorite BBQ joint for a few years now and I highly recommend their Mongolian pulled pork dip as their roast beef dip. Or ask for a plate of brisket with some kettle chips, that will do the trick for an happy stomach!
Finally, the time to let your mind drift has come. First, nourish your glow with Ra.D8 collagen infused sparkling tea from Gnusante . whether you sip their apple ginger, or the cool pineapple or blueberry vanilla teas you will truly feel like a star and you might end up walking the red carpet for the next Grammy’s. To keep the night rocking it’s time for serious drinks. Try the new creation from Eva Chow, ‘Khee’ a magic liquor made from the finest rice and natural rock water , Kheesoju. Khee has such a fine aroma and a very strong mineral taste. This liquor is a must for your next mojito or creative cocktail of your choice.
To conclude and as we say in France when we are so happy: “Champagne et santé!”. Open a bottle of ‘Rendez vous Champagne’ from founder Fiona Perrin. She has developed a line of champagnes for every mood of the moment. These are natural champagne which is a step above and beyond organic; these champagnes are crafted with the less intrants and manipulation possible. They are living wine to make you feel alive and kicking.
Voilà! We have been happy to taste for you the best from the Emmy’s 2022 DPA gift suite. Your turn now to go crazy and have fun with all
