It’s hard to believe with all-things-Covid that we actually do have an impressive social season under our belts and a good one on the horizon for 2022. In December, we were fortunate enough to raise our respective glasses to three hugely successful events.

Let’s start with the more-than-impressive Board of Visitors luncheon. The chilly afternoon was a smashing success and chaired by Cindy Good and Sally Guenther. The sold-out luncheon was pretty in pink and apple green with all things festive. People are talking about Geri Farr, the delightful Dallas transplant. She is someone to watch ladies and gentlemen and she was there too!

Donna Johnson and Lisa Shapiro breathed new energy and excitement into the Phoenix Art Museum shortly before Christmas with yet another sold-out luncheon. Donna, Lisa, and their fantastic committee shone brightly. The Arizona Costume Institute Holiday Luncheon was a brilliant afternoon filled with some of the finest ladies and gentlemen in town. Boy, were they all dressed to the nines? Markus Ford dropped by, and we think he’s another person like Ms. Farr that needs to be on everyone’s social radar. Finally Desert Foundation Auxiliary capped off the season at the Phoenician. Trends Senior Society Photographers Sally and Peter Krzykos, who have been with us since the early 1980s, covered the magnificent night. They were on-hand at the massive debutante ball to toast the beautiful young ladies who were presented to society. This time both the 2020 and 2021 debs were presented. What a night!

Apparently a luncheon goer, who is a bit too overfed for the mini skirt she was wearing, simply couldn’t wait to retrieve her nouveau riche auto.

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC is a facial filler made up of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that helps to bind water to cells. Its extensive cross-linking helps to provide an excellent lifting capacity, making it an excellent choice for restoring volume in the cheeks and midface.

WHAT IS JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC?

As you age, the cheeks may flatten and the skin may begin to sag. This is caused by natural loss of volume in the cheek area, or what the experts call age-related midface volume loss. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC is designed to add volume beneath the skin's surface, which provides lift and contour to the cheek area.

HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC provides natural-looking and long-lasting results that last up to 2 years with optimal treatment.
