We had an amazing event at Satine in Los Angeles on April 25, 2012!  The night consisted of tray passed savories, sweets, sips, fabulous styling tips from A Clothes Call’s Ruth Sonneshein, and tunes by DJ Lindsay Luv (who rocked the house!).  The highlight of everyone’s night was our celebrity host, Entourage star Emmanuelle Chriqui, who looked so stylish in our LouLou’s in Chopin!  Twilight’s Peter Facinelli and his friends also stopped by to hang out with the 240+ stylish guests for the night.

There was a lot of shopping going on (everyone especially loved the LouLou’s), braids and brows were getting done, and 10% of all Satine and HUDSON proceeds went directly to One Voice’s Scholar Program!

Hudson founder, Peter Kim just opened the FMM Innovation Summit and dazzled the audience with a very candid raw conversation.

“There is a big difference between a great business and a great brand. A great business comes from a great product but a great brand comes from a great message. A lifestyle brand is a lifestyle you represent & that is with a great message. Product becomes proof of that.” – Peter Kim

The HUDSON bus is now rolling thru Hong Kong for the months of March, April and May.

Now that’s what I call rollin’ in Style!!!

We have South x Southwest on our minds and decided to do a little research before we head out to Austin, Texas!

Haddingtons all American tavern is the perfect Happy Hour spot with it’s long indoor bar and breezy patio. The carefully crafted cocktails take a modern twist on some of our favorite cocktails.

Our favorite: Haddingtons’ signature cocktail, the Duck Fat Sazerac. Don’t let the duck fat scare you off, it adds a delicious richness to this whiskey cocktail.

For all the drink recipes check out foodie blog Serious Eats.

For Hump Day Happy Hour we have cocktail suggestions for your Super Bowl party this weekend.

For the New York Giant’s Fan we suggest a good old fashion Whiskey Sour. This sour whiskey drink is a favorite for many and the grenadine adds a sweet touch that is pleasing to the taste buds. For the Boston Patriots Fan we suggest a Boston favorite cocktail - Gin, apricot brandy, grenadine, and a splash of lemon and garnish with an orange-cherry flag.

No matter who wins at least you will be prepared with a perfectly delicious cocktail to keep the party going!

What do you wear the opening of Hedi Slimane’s “California Dreamin” show at the MOCA Pacific Design Center?

We’re thinking the always chic look in black. We suggest picking out your finest dark asymmetric sweater, your ultra skinny Edie pull on jeans, and your fav black leather bag! This exhibit is a must-see for all of you who cannot get enough of the famed photographer’s black and white gritty prints.  The second floor will feature a full-scale installation with projected images and a specially built stage that will host numerous up and coming Cali bands.

HUDSON x NYLON event at Bloomingdale’s 59th St, NYC this past week was a hit!

Guests mingled with Hudson Creative Director, Ben Taverniti while sipping on the ‘Hudson Cooler’ cocktail by Double Cross Vodka. The first lucky 150 guests received an exclusive tote bag containing goodies from Hudson and Nylon!

Once our guests found their perfect look they struck a pose in front of our awesome Hudson Photobooth set to the beats of DJ Julie Twinkle.
