Hi lovelies,
In honor of the super talented musicians, producers, and song writers, that make us laugh, cry, move, and groove through their unique and inspiring music and songs, Distinctive Assets hosted their 18th Annual Official Backstage GRAMMY Gift Lounge. And just like in year's past, this year's event did not disappoint and all who attended felt like Grammy winners in their own right.
Distinctive Assets joined forces with the incomparable event producer, Pam Morrison to create a day of decadence and luxury, with the creative vision provided by Rey 3 Interiors. We enjoyed pampering, gift bags, and enjoyed the tunes of DJ Spark, which rounded out the total experience.
