“A Sea of Glamour & Style” was presented by Leonard Simpson on June 5 at the La Jolla Farms Atoll House.

Ramin Pourteymour hosted this lavish event at his newly-remodeled home. The “Atoll House” resembles a dragon on the outside, designed to be in harmony with the landscape. Organic architect Kendrick Kellogg designed this incredible house. Fred Gemmell of Matrix Design remodeled the interior using materials from around the world. The artwork was created by James Hubbell, which included stained glass work and a brass water sculpture in the fountain at the entrance. This home will be featured in an upcoming edition of San Diego Home/Garden Lifestyle magazine.

Sally B. Thornton was honorary chair, Ramin Pourteymour and Maxine and Marti Gellers were co-chairs. The mistress of ceremonies, Andrea Naversen, started the festivities.

A cocktail party was held around the magnificent outdoor pool. As the night progressed, everyone moved to the tennis court for Leonard Simpson’s fashion show featuring local boutiques and designers. The catwalk wound around the tennis court and the models showcased both men’s and women’s fashion.

The guests moved back to the pool area for the finale and live auction. Proceeds from this event benefited the San Diego Blood Bank. The evening culminated with entertainment by Grammy nominee Sacha Boutros. Boutros sang jazz and Latin jazz with her backup trio. The audience was enthralled by this San Diego native’s captivating voice. It was the perfect ending to a fabulous evening of style, song and cuisine.
