A Festive Affair in Los Angeles
In a burst of pink and passion, Gwen Stefani, the iconic Hollaback Girl, dazzled Los Angeles with a Valentine’s Day event that was all about love and beauty. The singer and The Voice judge, at 54, hosted a bash to mark the special Valentine’s range of her brand GXVE Beauty.
Embracing the spirit of the occasion, Stefani was a vision in a pink fluffy blazer and matching pants, her hair styled in a chic wet-look ponytail, adorned with a slick twist. Her look was completed with striking scarlet lipstick and winged eyeliner, setting the tone for an evening that blended glamour with the celebration of love.
The event saw Stefani mingling with guests and sharing moments from the celebration on her Instagram Stories. A highlight was her interaction with beauty blogger Patrick Starr, and a life-size mascara wand decor that underscored the beauty theme of the evening. Yet, noticeably absent from the festivities was Blake Shelton, Stefani’s husband since 2021, sparking further speculation about the state of their union.
