LOUISE ROE IS NO PLAINE JANE 2 THE CW

Louise Roe from the CW's Plain JaneIt was a dark and stormy night...

Fine, it was probably 70 something degrees, the sun was setting and the palm trees were glistening in the corners of my eyes.

The Setting:  Private Venue in West Hollywood

The Reason:  The CW's, Plain Jane premiere party

The Lighting:  Perfect

Friend of NeverWood High, Louise Roe premiered her most recent project on The CW, Plain Jane.  Surrounded by friends, colleagues and what looked like to me was the opposite of a bunch of Plain Jane's.  Everyone there seemed to have one thing in common - we were all there in support of Louise.

Some of you may recognize her from MTV's, The City as she gave Olivia Palermo a run for her money.

Congrats to The CW on such a great idea for a show and to Louise Roe, who is probably known as Saint Louise to some Plain Jane's out there.

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY LAUREN CONRAD

The Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel Penthouse rooftop

Lauren Conrad & NeverWood High's Carlos E. Lopez at Justin Timberlake's concert in Madison Square Garden April 2007NeverWood High would like to wish Lauren Conrad a Happy Belated Birthday (on NWH)!!!

I was introduced to Lauren when she was about 18 or 19 years old and she is still the sweet genuine girl from Laguna Beach I first met.  Now 24, with two shows under her belt, endorsement deals and her own fashion line... I've always admired how she's stayed down to earth and well grounded.  

NeverWood High helped Lauren blow out her birthday candles last Sunday at The Roosevelt Hotel Penthouse. 

NWH invites Lauren Conrad to teach a class titled "The Secret of my Success", next semester.

Would you attend? tweet us @carlosncharge your answer.

LAUREN CONRAD OUT OF THE HILLS AND INTO KOHL'S

Caprice Crane at Barnes & Nobles signing a copy of her book Family Affair

From book signings to dresses with inner linings our night was spent supporting the lovely ladies of LA.  

Screenwriter, novelist & tv writer Caprice Crane was at Barnes & Nobles in The Grove, signing copies of her new book Family Affair.  Caprice is currently writing on The CW's Melrose Place and working on her 4th book, due early 2011.

After spending 20 minutes in The Grove parking lot, trying to remember where I parked my car...  I would like to give a special shout out to Juan Julio who drove me around on a little Grove cart in search of my wheels.

As soon as I got a hold of my bearings, I headed to Melrose Place for Lauren Conrad's Kohl's event.  I've never been more proud of someone then Miss Lauren C.  She always delivers everything with such class and good times for all.  

Walking into the Kohl's party there was a huge Edward Scissor Hands type sculpture that was followed by models who stood as vignettes wearing Lauren's latest Kohl's collaboration.

Sliders were servered with lil hamburgers and LC-tinis were poured at the bar.  Music was provided by my two favorite brothers and DJ's, Danny Masterson (Mom Jeans) and Jordan "Jordy" Masterson.  I caught myself doing a double take as I saw a DJ AM sticker on the back of one of their laptops.  

If only...

Overall the night was a success.  It's great to see those who do what they love and make it work for them. Whether its writing a book, to designing a fashion line or allowing someone to enjoy themselves through music you fill the air with.  

You control your destiny - so follow your heart and your dreams (and have fun in between).

MTV PREMIERES THE HILLS & THE CITY...DID YOU WATCH?

The rooftop of The London Hotel in West HollywoodKristin Cavallari is back and ready for actionIf you watched the season premiere of The Hills last night, you would have viewed Kristin Cavallari exchange some words with Stephanie Pratt and Audrina Patridge on the rooftop of The London Hotel in West Hollywood.  

and...

What better place for MTV to have their premiere party for both The Hills and The City, then on the exact rooftop these girls through down on.

The crew (behind the scenes) are like family to me as I've been there since day one and by day one...I'm talking about Laguna Beach.  I've seen this show grow from a behind the scenes stand point and even made some guest appearances on The Hills during my Teen Vogue days.

Kristin has always been one of my favorites and glad she's back on the show to spice up everyone's life.  All your favorite cast from both Hills and City were there and ready for some fun.  

Whitney Port and Roxy Olin flew in from New York to attend this Los Angeles premier night for MTV.  They sat with Kelly Cutrone from Peoples Revolution and Co-Executive Spike (one of my favorites).

Always a big supporter of Adam Divello, the creator behind The Hills and The City and Executive Producer on Laguna Beach.  Adam has turned a hit reality show into a franchise and I'm excited to see what he has in store for us next.

What would the night be without catching up with Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag.  Heidi was wearing knee high Christian Louboutin boots and showed us that her boots were definitely made for walking.  Controversial or not, I've always thought these two were fun, kept it interesting and are amazing at what they put their minds to.  I met Heidi through talent producer (of Laguna Beach and The Hills) Sophia Rossi, when she first moved here from Colorado.  As for Spencer...well lets say we've seen him be a Prince of Malibu to now becoming a "King", through a name change he did this year. 

I have to admit it did feel a little weird as I stopped in my tracks on the rooftop side party...did a 360 of The Hills that surrounded us and was a little sad to see no Lauren Conrad.

But, you know what they say, THE REST IS STILL UNWRITTEN...

WHITNEY PORT OUT N ABOUT N THE CITY

Whitney Port at the Calvin Klein party in the city

We caught up with Whitney Port at the Standard Grill Beiergarten for the Calvin Klein party and she told us that she is loving her new life in The City.  Her advice on moving to NY was to definitely move when the weather is a bit warmer, so that you can ease into the winter.  Especially if you are from The Hills of Cali or anywhere on the west coast for that matter.

The night before we slipped into Calvin's we went to the Dsquared2 headquarters for designer twins Dean & Dan Caten,  who through a party in celebration of their new eye wear launch.  We danced the night away with Brad Goreski from the Rachel Zoe Project and had a chance to say hello to Rachel Zoe and her hubby Roger Berman who were also there in attendance.

My favorite thing about being in the city is that you can literally hop from one place to the next and somehow manage to see all of your friends.  When the New York kids on the block began to flood the streets in style,  is when you know your not in Kansas anymore Toto.  

NeverWood High would like to congratulate Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen on their party at Bergdorf Goodman's they through for their line The Row.  Friends of NeverWood High Matt Creed and Cassie Coane DJ'd the party, while champagne was passed amongst the guest.

We cant wait for February when New York fashion week strikes again!
