SOCIAL CHIC - Cape Fear Heart Ball

CAPE FEAR HEART BALL

February 13, 2010

The American Heart Association’s Cape Fear Heart Ball, held February
13th at the Holiday Inn Resort in Wrightsville Beach, brought out a
crowd with big hearts and generous spirits, to raise funds to support
research and education on cardiovascular disease.

Guests hovered around Full Sail Photography’s
Photo Booth throughout the night in between bidding on the silent
auction items and hitting the dance floor to the sounds of The Four
Knights Band.

Style Girl took in the guests attire noting the appearance of the
season’s most sought-after trends from one-shoulder dresses, manicured
ruffles to fringe, feathers, statement necklaces and spectacular
sequins.

BEST DRESSED:

The evening’s title for “Best Dressed” goes to Betsy Von Biberstein, wearing a sequined floor-length strapless Marchesa gown and Slane & Slane fringe earrings from Cape Fear Jewelry. Who would have guessed there was a Marchesa in our midst!

MANICURED RUFFLES:

Kathryn Lackman wears a cobalt blue halter dress featuring a neckline
with cascading manicured ruffles accessorized with a quilted classic
Chanel handbag and silky layered tresses.


FEATHERS:

Wrightsville Beach star real estate agent Michelle Clark, with husband Tim at her side, chose an off-the-shoulder black dress with maribou feathers.

MILITARY:

What better accessory than a man in military black tie? Note the medals and her pop of red-on-red floral hair accessory.

ONE SHOULDER:

Venitta Reeves, with Deborah Goodman, looked smashing in her
one-shoulder short LBD with sequin embellishment. She said the “story
is almost as good as the dress!” Turns out she got the dress for 50%
off after a little haggling at Copper Penny in Myrtle Beach.

LADYLIKE LUXE:

Eubany Jackie, a cardiologist from Jacksonville, arrived in a
neutral-toned, luxe ladylike ensemble - a lace dress with a tailored
metallic blazer with a sophisticated sheen.

STATEMENT NECKLACES:

Amy James and Christine Hoskins chose simple and chic all-black palettes with statement necklaces.
