Mansion Mayhem - Google NY Holiday Party 2012

Last week, I took Bobby and Rahul to Google’s 2012 New York holiday party at the New York Public Library. It may be just one night - but this is absolutely one of my favorite perks of working at Google! (Photos via party photographers’ Picasa albums.)

The NYPL awaiting our arrival - decked out in Googley colors.

My two handsome dates! After some frantic/failed dress shopping, I ended up wearing this DVF dress that I scored at Loehmann’s back in ‘09, with a sparkly gold Banana Republic belt. 5-inch Michael Kors leopard print maryjanes: not pictured. My feet are still recuperating.

Dining and sipping next to stacked shelves.

Champagne fountain in action.

Piano bar!

Casino room - all “winnings” were donated to Friends of the Highline - the charity selected by attendees.

Tequila luge… my scene. For obvious reasons.

The library was absolutely beautiful as a venue - and three hours certainly weren’t enough to explore all the different rooms and activities.

The final hours were spent dancing the night away in the basement of the library. Blasting music in what is normally a temple of silence = awesome. There is no photographic evidence of that, for better or for worse. ;)
