District L

I walked into Good Units for Loden Dager to Age of Consent by New Order. As I was scanning the attractive, predominantly-male crowd and enjoying the flawless musical transition from New Order to Crystal Castles, I had the heart-dropping realization that my camera had died, already well aware that my phone was soon to follow. With not enough time to run back to my apartment to retrieve my other outdated technologies, I ran over to Best Buy on 62^nd and started barking sales associates into action. After convincing an entire Geek Squad that my issue took precedence over the sweet family purchasing a phone for their teenage daughter, I managed to catch the Rafael Cennamo presentation with a working camera and time to spare.

Complete with tiaras, regal tones, and a take-no-prisoners attitude, the Rafael Cennamo AW 2012 model presentation was an enhanced representation of my manner just minutes prior. Dramatic silhouettes in glittering hues instantaneously commanded the crowd. Dominant at her worst, but majestic at her best, Rafael Cennamo’s lady ruled with a manicured fist.

This Tuesday, District L will be attending Sauza Tequila's "Ladies Who Brunch" event, hosted by expert party planner, Cathy Riva. When you're invited to enjoy fresh margaritas, express manicures, and chair massages, you cannot say no.

Riva, who's built her career by throwing top-notch soirees for socialites and making informative appearances on NBC's The Today Show, will be put to the DL test.

Because, let's face it, we know a good party.
