Rick de la Croix, Loren Ridinger, and Kamal Hotchandani
This week Hublot launched their new Big Bang Caviar Lady 305 timepiece in style. The manufacture celebrated with a private dinner hosted by Hublot’s Rick de la Croix and Haute Living at Zuma in Miami, Florida. The evening, which saw Shannon Allen, Janice Combs, Cliff Floyd, Larsa Pippen, Jenine Howard, Adrienne Bosh and Gabrielle Union in attendance, doubled as a birthday celebration for Loren Ridinger, who received Haute Living‘s Woman of Substance of the Year award.
Women of Substance are chosen in each issue of Haute Living for their outstanding qualities in leadership, business, and philanthropic work. The women chosen for this distinction have a well-balanced dynamic of success in business paired with a passion for charitable endeavors.
The award was presented by Haute Living publisher and friend Kamal Hotchandani for Ridinger’s contributions in philanthropy and leadership of Market America, the international online shopping portal that services 3 million customers and is ranked 27th in DSN’s Global 100 List. Ridinger exemplifies a true Woman of Substance with her successful business and lines that include Motives by Loren Ridinger, Cellular Laboratories, and Loren Jewels along with charity work that includes co-chairing Rally for Kids with Cancer, American Heart Association and the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
A haute happy birthday tribute video was presented to Loren during the event, with messages from close friends including Jamie Foxx (who sang “Happy Birthday”), Eva Longoria, Ken Paves, and Khloe Kardashian.
However, the biggest present she received was without a doubt the first Hublot Lady 305, which Mrs. Ridinger was already wearing!
