CBS Evening News – WUSA 9

I’m on my way into DC to set up my booth for the Green Festival at the Washington Convention Center that will start tomorrow, Saturday, October 23rd through Sunday.  Keep an eye out if you live in the DC Metro Area; from what I’ve been told, I might be interviewed for the evening news tonight (about my jewelry).  More information about the show later – was kind of a last minute thing!

Thank you to everyone who came out tonight to support Becky’s Fund!  It was an amazing night.

The Secret Room’s Emmy Style Lounge

I participated in the Secret Room’s Emmy Style Lounge on August 27th, 2010 at the Peterson Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, CA as a silver level sponsor benefiting Operation Smile.  It was an amazing event organized by the wonderful Amy Boatwright and Ralph George and I can’t wait for the next one!

As a silver level sponsor, I was able to:

  • Participate in the Editor’s Choice gift bags.  These were given to various nationwide magazines so keep an eye out for ways to win one of these goodie bags!
  • Be AT the style lounge to meet Hollywood celebrities, such as Kevin Sorbo, Eric Roberts, Cheech Marin, Chase Masterson, etc!  It was an amazing experience and they were all so nice and genuine.  I also gave out lots and lots of my stainless steel and bamboo pendants which were a hit!
  • Interviews, lots of interviews!

I’m currently sorting through all of the photos, and will be posting them in the near future.  The trip went very well, and it looks like I’ll be busy for quite a while (and I LOVE being busy!).

A couple articles about the event:

“Melissa Lew’s Asian designs were an absolute hit and were snatched up by guests upon sight.”

And here’s an interview by Mingle Media TV.  Enjoy!

I very much enjoyed being out in LA and am looking forward to the next event!
