Filed under: Events: On the Scene, Style in the News, Celebrities with Style




If fashion is war, then consider Zandile Blay your embedded reporter. From fashion shows to stylish parties, she's there to cover it all -- from London to New York and everywhere in between. Read all about it from your favorite fashionista.

When it comes to London's East End, parties are almost like a family reunion. Especially if your family is the type in which men like superstar designer Henry Holland (above) sport bleached blond hair and cut off shorts . But I digress....Earlier this week Henry (well really his press agent) invited me to get "Extra Close" at a party in Archie's Archway in trendy East London.

Bubbly Drinks and Bubble Gum?

The party was hosted by Henry Holland and sponsored by Wrigley's Spearmint gum. The combination of high fashion and clean breath made for some truly intimate moments.

Celebes like Agyness Deyn got extra cozy (in photos at least) with new male friend, Antony Ellis. By the deejay booth a very svelte and pretty Kelly Osbourne was playing music and making out with her new guy, a British model called Luke.

All the while, Henry Holland, the frockstar who brought us all together, was playing the perfect host by greeting everyone with hugs and smiles. It wasn't just the celebs that were in a good mood. The crowd was full of some of London's most fabulous professionals -- including Luke Blackall, a columnist for a popular paper here called the London Paper and Dean, who founded London's premier modeling agency D1 Models. Guys, it was a good night. Too good to continue. It's 3 am -- right after the party -- as I type this, and I'm too tired to continue. Till next time!
