A day at Charlie Palmer is always a treat, and this time it was made even better by the lovely ladies of JDRF O.C.’s Dream Guild, who gathered at the restaurant for the group’s annual luncheon. And it was filled with stylish pleasures from start to finish. The 150 guests began with sips of Champagne at Montblanc’s SCP boutique before sitting down to an oh-so-chic (and tasty) three-course meal from chef Seakyeong Kim. A silent auction also delighted with handbags from Jessica Grant—created by Dream Guild member Suzan Paek—Burberry and Chanel. And to close? Moira Kamgar, Jennifer Berlinger, Heather Madden and the rest of the gals went home with a fragrance from Montblanc—and the news that it all raised $20,000 for Type 1 diabetes research. A fashionable affair, indeed. Photography by M. Haight Photography
