Pulsating party

It was for most a very confusing yuletide season, caught as many were between the gung-ho attitude of those on the political hustings and those, on the other hand, who were just trying to maximise the spirit of Christmas. The fact that there's a worldwide economic downturn did not help the fortunes of many and even predicated a reversal of fortunes, which saw little or no disposable income to accommodate lavish entertaining or partying, it was adding up to be one droll Christmas.

Well, that was before December 24 and the staging of the annual Christmas Eve celebration by the Kingsley Cooper-led Pulse in the fabulous gardens of Villa Ronai, Old Stony Hill, St Andrew. Here the climate is known to get so chilly during the Christmas season, the residents have been known to don winter gear to stay warm.

Anyway my dears, enter the annual Pulse fabfest, and the social juices were once again flowing for chicksters, fashionistas, and the kings of swagger. The much-anticipated Pulse Christmas Eve do was on, and the city's fab crowd was abuzz in joyful anticipation. It was beginning to look a lot like the 'Gringe' had stolen Christmas, or most certainly, its spirit! Anyways my darling dears, as they say, 'All's well, that ends well'.

And so it was, that with the fab and the style denizens, celebs, and the up-and-coming, not to mention modelling and social hopefuls and others were all hankering to dance out of the humdrum and into the spotlight of grandeur. And honeys, that is what partying at Christmas Eve with Pulse is all about.

Dears, this was no ordinary party and, after all, no one expected it to be. This was the signature season event as the fab came to party and party they did, way into Christmas morning, and then some!

Dears, it was just what the doctor ordered and with DJ Duey revving up the ante with some simply def tunes, spanning the musical genres, it translated to one swaggeriffic outing and fabulously so!

What a party!

Pumpkins, it was the social outing of the season, with guests jetting in from all over the globe toshare in and make the event one fab, fabest and nothing but!

Luvs, we are talking a fabdom here of the highest order, as mini-skirted lassies danced to their favourite hot new tunes; their squires buffed and decked out like peacocks in the latest threads. They partied with a roving eye, while for others, the gardens and poolside provided the perfect ambience for the ultimate cocktail reception or reprise!

This was one fab party with fabulous finger foods served up by dancing waitresses; the bar served as the fount of all party elixir and the company running the gamut from ditzy to erudite and lettered, not to mention glamorous mavens and doyennes.
