An overflow crowd of over 300 guests packed Stylistic Intervention in downtown Laguna Beach last night to officially kick off the Men of Laguna 2008 Calendar at our Launch Party. Guests were greeted by 3 searchlights and treated to Laguna Man-Tinis made with Skyy Vodka (our official Vodka Sponsor – Thank You SKYY!!!) lots of delicious hors d’oeuvres and mini deserts made lovingly be Maggie Hempen and her crew from “Such a Great Party”. Stylistic Intervention owner Sondra Piorek and manager, Judy Wilson were the perfect hosts.

How Many Chefs Does it Take to Cut the Brownies? They were so good!!! Maggie on the phone.

The Bartenders serving Laguna Man-Tinis and lots of champagne.

All the models attending including Mr. September, Chris (left) and January Joe signed calendars all night long.


Mr. August, Ryan and his beautiful wife Teresa (due next week!) taking a break.


Cover Model (and Mr. November) Caleb helping to auction off the donated Wyland Print as Auctioneer Kate gets top dollar from a generous guest.
