Marissa Mills and Lisa Present, two born and bred Angelenos, are spending their weekend managing production on Devine Design, the annual five-day shopping event in Beverly Hills that sends all its proceeds over to Project Angel Food for the holidays. Style Firm reconverts the old obinsons-May store in Beverly Hills back to a functioning department store. Millions of dollars in merchandise are donated each year and sold for a discount. Every day the merchandise sits, the discount gets better!

The event started this past Wednesday with a huge party and VIP preview honoring Kelly Osbourne as their "Woman of Style," and a featured runway show with the Thom Browne collection specially designed for Brooks Brothers called Black Fleece. Thursday night was another VIP cocktail shopping party, and the rest of the weekend, the event will be open all weekend long to anyone with $25 and a hankering to shop.

The highlight of Devine Design this year is a massive Barbie installation, where you can get your photo taken with in a giant Barbie box with Ken and Barbie! An impressive collection of Barbies piled on tables includes limited edition dolls such as Janet Janet and hard to find editions like Harley Davidson Barbie. A Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf bar will keep shoppers alert and warm!

Marissa and Lisa began working together in the Macy's events and PR department and later opened Style Firm, an event and fashion show production company based in Beverly Hills. Together they produce a good portion of fashion events in L.A. Clients include Chanel, Escada, Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, Macy's Passport, Bloomingdale's, Oscar de la Renta and more.
