Posted by 68thandpark in Articles.42 comments



Fashion designer Nicky Hilton is back in New York. After a week of business commitments, the socialite attended the Bridgehampton Polo over the weekend with her younger brother, Conrad, and Laura Katzenberg, the sister of her long-term boyfriend, David. (The Katzenbergs’ father is the billionaire founder of DreamWorks and is a former studio chairman of the Walt Disney Company.) The hotel heiress hosted a clambake the night of the polo and is vacationing at her parents’ Water Mill estate now. Her sister, Paris, is busy in Beverly Hills, recording her second studio album at home with boyfriend, Benji Madden, for Heiress Records, the Warner Brothers-distributed label she started in 2006.

It was a Ronson and Lohan family affair at the “10 Years of Gorgeous” anniversary celebration for Sephora. Fashion designer Charlotte Ronson and model Annabelle Dexter-Jones came out to the Angel Orensanz Foundation in the Lower East Side with their sister, Samantha Ronson, who was the resident DJ for the party.
A radiant Lindsay Lohan, who just completed production on her comeback comedy, Labor Pains, glowed in front of the cameras. Her brother, Ithaca lacrosse player Mike Lohan, and her mother, Dina Lohan, made their way to Manhattan to see the blonde beauty. Lindsay is debuting her third studio album, Spirit in the Dark, in November and will soon be in Bucharest, Romania to film her next flick, the appropriately titled, Dare to Love Me.
Heiresses Nicky Hilton and Lydia Hearst rounded the bunch. Nicky, fresh from Los Angeles, is in town for business. Model Lydia was the face of Sephora last winter for the beauty chain’s holiday campaign.
