September 18, 2008 Blue&Cream hosted a private shopping event to raise awareness about an amazing school, Harmony Heights, which provides boarding, education, and therapy for troubled teenage girls in Long Island. Guests enjoyed hors d’ouevres, cocktails, and raffles. They also got first access to Blue&Cream’s summer sale and fall preview. A percentage of proceeds went to benefit Harmony Heights.

Blue&Cream had a lot to celebrate this weekend – Memorial Day, the start of summer 2008, and most importantly, our five-year-anniversary. We kicked it off with an Unruly Heir trunkshow and the launch of the Timo! For Unruly Heir collection. The event was hosted by a slew of VIP family and friends including Maggie Rizer, Carrie Cloud, Annabelle and Alexander Dexter-Jones, Kristian Laliberte, Liam McMullan, Alexandra Richards, and Leven Rambin. Guests enjoyed free ice-cream cones and a gift with purchase. The party didn’t stop there, everyone headed over to new hot-spot Lilly Pond to continue the celebration.

Up-and-coming tee-shirt companies, Create and Duane, hosted their summer showcase at Blue&Cream. The guests cooled off with free ice-cream cones by Mister Softee and enjoyed cocktails by Svedka and OSO as they listened to the beats of a DJ entertaining the crowd. Those who attended got to view the latest collections by the designers and enjoyed a special discount on the pieces.

The American Heart Association’s Junior Council hosted their summer kick-off at Blue&Cream. For this invite-only shopping event, guests sipped champagne and snacked on ice-cream as they scoured the racks. A percentage of proceeds for the evening went to support the American Heart Association.

Blue&Cream teamed up with the Children’s Rights Junior Council and Lucky Magazine to host Cocktails+Clothing+A Good Cause. Guests partook in a silent auction and shopping this season’s hottest styles with proceeds benefiting the Children’s Rights Organization. Designer Charlotte Ronson created a limited edition tee-shirt design as her donation for the event, which flew off the racks as soon as guests arrived. To thank them for their support, attendees enjoyed gift bags, hors d’oeuvres, cupcakes, and cocktails. Celebs including Rosario Dawson, Ms. Teen USA, and Taryn Manning came out to shoe their support for a great cause.

On May 20th, Blue & Cream hosted an exclusive showing of Carlos Souza’s Most Wanted Design Jewelry collection. The stunning pieces inspired by Brazilian and Buddhist concepts are unlike any other designs. Carlos brought along many pieces of his personal collection for display and discussion. Guests, which were close friends and family of the designer along with many press personnel, enjoyed champagne and a beautiful floral display. A lovely and intimate dinner followed the event at Bette.

Blue&Cream loves doing events with friend and designer Charlotte Ronson, and we were especially excited to add Chrissie Miller’s line, Sophmore, to the event this time. This summer lovin’ event included complementary mr softee ice cream, bon bon chicken, svedka cocktails, and side-walk chalk drawing. Guests included Dani Stahl, music exec Mark Sudak, Alice Roy, designer Shoshanna Gruss, and Derek Blasberg. Both lines are a huge success at Blue&Cream and we look forward to upcoming events with these budding designers.
