ALEXANDRA DWEK'S MOST MAGICAL CHRISTMAS LUNCHEON
Yes, I know Christmas is over. I don't care. I got a little swamped during the holidays, but to show you an event like this is timeless.
Alexandra is a dear friend. She does charity work all over the world and has raised a great deal of money for VERY worthy causes. She is also a delightful, funny, caring friend. Each year, for many years, she has given this Christmas luncheon. She is switching her main residence to London, and this was the last Christmas lunch ever ( I hope not.)
Her style and taste in decor, menu, ambiance, and showing friendship is simple awe-inspiring.
Take a look at Christmas in her Bel Air English "lodge".......
Carolers greeted you |
Alexandra, her GORGEOUS and talented daughter, Cairo, Irena Medavoy |
Alexandra and yours truly |
This dining room Christmas design caused gasps as we saw it. Yes, those are individually-placed fresh flowers coming down from the ceiling! |
Alexandra and Stephanie Schramm |
Tawny Sanders, Dahlia Merhi, Nancy Davis |
Maria Schnabel, Cynthia Sikes, Ambassador Nancy Hirsch Rubin in front of the foyer fireplace |

The gorgeous halibut followed the cheese souffle |
Each long-stemmed rose was tied onto a hook. Mark's Gardens executed Alexandra's design |
Happy girl |
I loved framing Cynthia with the bar arch |
