GEORGETOWN -- While Washington is starting to enjoy the cooling temperatures brought on by the end of summer, the changing weather nevertheless hints at all of the fall fundraising festivities that will soon engulf the city. And with all of those black tie benefits comes the simultaneous need by D.C. residents for increased styling, in order to ensure that they look their best.

Getting a jump start on things, noted hair stylist Luigi Parasmo and venerable plastic surgeon Dr. Ayman Hakki of Luxxery Medical Boutique united on Monday night at Luigi Parasmo Salon to host a pampered evening of beauty and glamour for a handful of the District’s tastemakers.

Local notables, such as HOT 99.5's Sarah Fraser and Tiffany Keaton, WPGC 95.5'sSunni And The CityWashingtonian's Kate Bennett, Gilt City D.C.'s Marissa Schneider, the Newseum’s Sonya Gavankar, and Miss D.C. 2009 Jen Corey, began the evening sipping on cocktails and enjoying delicious hors d'oeuvres from nearby Mediterranean eatery Neyla.
They were then treated to a virtual buffet of beauty deals, including discounted services on hair and makeup appointments as well as Botox and other cosmetic treatments.
A well-known name among some of Washington’s more recognizable residents, Dr. Hakki’s practices in both Georgetown and Waldorf have attracted a rich clientele that includes former Miss Americas, recording artists, and a number of Washington Redskins' Hall of Famers and Washington Wizards' wives.
And Parasmo, of course, is known for his work in helping style such iconic brands as Valentino, Armani, D&G, and Versace during fashion week in Milan, as well as his celebrity clientele (former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, etc.). His eponymous salon opened in Georgetown in April of this year.

K Street Kate – Four and Flourishing!

by Hiba Hakki 3. September 2010 07:44

Fans and friends of K Street Kate braved mid-August-in-DC mugginess and jammed into Dr. Ayman Hakki’s new cosmetics spa - Luxxery Express – to commemorate the online magazine’s 4th Anniversary. At the helm of it all? Kate Michael – arbiter of all things DC and one of the best hostesses in town! And those that came to get their drink on weren’t let down in the least!

 

After raising many glasses to Kate and her crew at Luxxery the masses migrated to Mighty Pint for the official after party.

 

 http://www.kstreetkate.net/2010/08/four-fabulous-and-on-to-year-five.html

K Street Kate celebrated four years in Luxxery Tuesday night.  An intimate gathering of friends and supporters came together at Dr. Ayman Hakki's newest "Med-Spa" location to toast four year's of our online magazine's coverage of local trendsetters and tastemakers.  The venue, just as our content, was overflowing with the best this city has to offer!


Fresh off the boat, literally, from France's champagne region, CPC Cellars brought their select Bordeaux wine, Brut and Rose champagnes to sip and share.  Thanks to CPC Owner  Patrick Callieri, K Street Kate had the exclusive opportunity to introduce these new products to the East Coast - and we were happy to raise our glasses all night!

And then there was the vodka bar, specially sponsored by the ab fab Absolut Vodka (including the new Absolut Berry Acai). No one could get enough of their K Street Kate signature drinks... paired with traditional mixers as well as some of the newest VitaminWaterZero flavors (we love you - and thank you for your support - SmartWater/VitaminWater/Glaceau!).   


We have to thank our incredible co-hosts, Dr. Ayman Hakki, Leslie Sanchez and Reese Gardner (who orchestrated our TOTally awesome afterparty at his Mighty Pint venue) for making the night one to remember.

We're four, fabulous... and on to year five!
