A great night was had last night in NYC at the Dockers 'Khakis Make the Man' event hosted by the very handsome actor Peter Facinelli.  Some of you may more readily know him as the character Carlisle Cullen, from the 'Twilight' movies.  While Peter played host, tunes for the evening were provided by none other than DJ Joel Madden from the band Good Charlotte.

'Khakis Make the Man' was sponsored by Dockers and Esquire in celebration of the 100th anniversary of Father's Day and to raise money for Habitat for Humanity.

Being an event for such a good cause, guests were able to make a donation to Habitat and get a pair of Dockers khakis which could be customized right away since stylists and tailors were standing by on site.  How clever!

This sign displays (though not very clear from this image) the list of Khaki specialty cocktails for the evening such at the Khaki Daddy, Khaki-Licious and the Khaki-Tini.  Delish!

Actress Malinda Williams was in the house.  Looking beautiful as always.  She is actually in a movie due out later this year called "Nailed" with a star-studded cast that includes Jake Gyllenhaal, Jessica Biel, James Marsden and Tracy Morgan, just to name a few.

 Here's a quick clip of Joel Madden djing.

Hilarious dialogue between me and Peter Facinelli:

Me:  Can I take a photo of you?

Peter:  Yes (he gestures for me to come closer).

Me:  Oh, no, I want one of you.  Not with me.

Peter:  You don't want one with me??? (He's funny!)

Me:  Yes, but I want one of you first for my site, then one of you with me second.

Peter:  Okay.

And, for the second photo he held the camera and below is the result.  LOL. Oh, Carlisle!  I mean Peter :)  Such a nice guy.

Great night for a good cause!
