NICK APPEARANCES.....Crystal Light's Toast the Top Stylists of the Season Brunch Hosted by Giuliana Rancic

Post Award Show Fashionista Brunch:

Couple Fab: Nick Verreos and Giuliana Rancic--Crystal Light's "Toast the Top Stylists of the Season Hosted by Giuliana Rancic" Brunch, SLS Hotel Beverly Hills

Last week, I was invited to a fabulous brunch--along by NIKOLAKI Design/Business--and Partner-in-Life David Paul given by Crystal Light. The event "Toast the Top Stylists of the Season" was hosted by none other than E! News and E! Fashion Police's Giuliana Rancic:

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Giuliana and anything with her name attached to it: I AM THERE! She's not only such an amazing human being, as a Fashionsita, we adore it. I also adored even more, when she wore one of my NIKOLAKI high-end dresses on E! "Fashion Police" not too long ago:

This special post-Awards Season Brunch at the SLS Hotel Beverly Hills was a way for Crystal Light and the fabulous Giuliana to "Toast" all the stylistas--designers, stylists, bloggers, fashion editors...who helped make 2012-2013 Awards Season look so good. Waiters with colorful Crystal Light drinks awaited us as we enter the Garden Room of the hotel.

Squeeze It Baby: Nick Verreos--Crystal Light's "Toast the Top Stylists of the Season" Brunch, SLS Hotel Beverly Hills

I have become OBSESSED with the new Crystal Light Liquid--I usually can't get my daily amount of 8-glasses-of water-a-day but with a little squeeze of the Crystal Light: done & done! They come in many flavors. My favorites include Iced Tea, Blueberry Raspberry, Mango Passionfruit and Strawberry Lemonade (wait! I think I've almost named them all!). Also, love the fact that it is ZERO calories. Hello!

Nick Verreos and Stylist Monica Rose--I was so excited to run into Monica Rose. She's Giuliana's stylist and puts her in those amazing gowns and ensembles she wears on E!. Monica also is the stylists to the Kardashian girls of course. I met Monica YEARS ago when she was just beginning as a Stylists and lent her many of my NIKOLAKI dresses and gowns back in the day when as she herself admits, no one was lending her anything! We go back a ways, needless to say.

Costume Designer/Stylist Nicole Allowitz and Nick Verreos--Speaking of going way back--I literally YELLED and screamed like a Gay Hyena in Heat when I saw my good friend, "Access Hollywood" costume designer and stylist Nicole Allowitz. Our relationship began also many, many years ago when she reached out to me to make a gown for the beautiful Nancy O'Dell when Nancy co-hosted (along with Carlos Ponce) the "Miss Universe 2006" Pageant here in Los Angeles. I created this for her:

"Nail Boy" to the Stars Tom Bachik--I was so eager to meet THE Nail Guy to the Stars--or as he likes to call himself, "MAN-icurist", Tom Bachik. He was there with his lovely wife (yes, kids, he's STRAIGHT, so hands-off!) and he was so sweet and very dapper.
