    Ladies in yellow dazzle: Bubbly, limoncello and Ralph Lauren reign at Lemonade Day bash

    They were seeing yellow, sipping yellow and even wearing yellow at the Ladies Lemonade Day Ambassadors party hosted by Ralph Lauren and held in the Memorial area home of Lemonade Day founders Lisa and Michael Holthouse.

    For the early-evening cocktail gathering, supporters sipped on the yellow-hued libation of their choice, selecting from Veuve Clicquot, homemade lemonade, lemon sorbet Cosmopolitans and limoncello. Many dressed in yellow and the door prize was a Ralph Lauren canvas Ricky tote in, what else, yellow. (Heather Mitchell was the lucky gal carrying home the $995 tote.)

    The Ralph Lauren team saw to every detail from the flowers to the table coverings to the informal modeling of the designer's spring line.

    As part of the fundraising effort that kicks of official Lemonade Day on May 5, Lisa autographed copies of her brand new children's book, It All Started with a Turtle, with all proceeds going to the non-profit project.

    The Ralph Lauren team saw to every detail from the flowers to the table coverings to the informal modeling of the designer's spring line. They even worked with Swift + Co. on the lavish menu of hors d'oeuvres and those festive drinks.

    Joining the party were Anne Wolf, Nancy Dinerstein, Sharon Brier, Mandy Kao, Diane Lokey Farb, Merele Yarborough, Marie Guillot, Duyen Huynh, Julie Eberly, Annie Amante, Claudia Contreras, Kimberly DeLape and Miya Shay.

    Made It Weird

    The Broach Foundation for Brain Cancer Research gathered supporters at River Oaks Country Club for its 14th Annual Stand Up for Brain Cancer Gala. The event paired purpose with a healthy dose of humor — because the toughest battles can benefit from a little levity.

    Guests were welcomed by co-founder Jamie Broach Bryd, her husband, Jeff Bryd, and their family during a pre-reception. Following a gourmet seated dinner, guests turned their attention to the evening’s headliner, Pete Holmes. Known for his stand-up specials, television appearances, and popular podcast “You Made It Weird,” Holmes delivered his blend of self-aware humor and authenticity.

    The mission traces back to James Broach, who was diagnosed with a Grade II astrocytoma in 2010 before later facing glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer. Although James Broach passed away in 2013, his vision continues to guide the organization.

    More than 400 guests attended the sold-out gala.

    Joining the cause-minded crowd were Ilona Carson and Jim Colosanto, Greg and Jamie Grissom, Holly and Hunter Stewart, Andy and Ashlee Veit, Jennifer and Michael Dellinger, Corey and David Le Norman, Jan Bres, Jennifer and Farzad Askari, Anita O’Shaughnessy, Lindsey and Tray Black, Carrie and Tom Field, and Megan Davis.
