Celebrity gifting connoisseur Debbie Durkin is at it again! After a highly successful suite at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, the undisputed queen of Earth-friendly Hollywood gifting put on another exciting EcoLuxe Lounge on Saturday in celebration of Oscars 2015. At the Academy Awards EcoLuxe Lounge, held in The Beverly Hilton’s swanky Stardust Penthouse, celebrities like Ben Wilkins of Oscar winner Whiplash, Elise Robertson of Oscar nominatee American Sniper, Elizabeth Yianni-Georgiou of Oscar nominee Guardians of the Galaxy, and Hunger Games actress Dakota Hood mingled, took funny souvenir photos at a Photobooth, and enjoyed an array of extraordinary gifts.
All of the guests went gaga over the Repurpose Compostable champagne and coffee bar, as well as the styling bar, organic spray tans, and makeup touchups by OC Hair & Makeup. The attendees also raved about the impressive selection of gifts, such as hand-woven wooden picture frames from Elan Event Rentals and luxurious “glamping” vacations to Glacier Park, Yellowstone National Park, and the Moab Desert from Under Canvas Events.
