Victoria Beckham Is Showered in Pink From Eva, Ken, Nicole, and Rachel at Her Baby Shower!

Katie Henry — Mon, 09 May 2011 02:15:00 PDT

Victoria Beckham and her baby bump were the center of attention at a shower thrown in her honor on the rooftop of LA's exclusive Le Petit Ermitage hotel on Saturday afternoon. Ken Paves and Eva Longoria were the cohosts for the all pink affair with guests Rachel Zoe, Nicole Richie, and Demi Moore there to participate in the fun and themed games. The weekend started off a little rocky for Posh when David and their eldest son, Brooklyn, were involved in a minor highway fender bender Friday, but by later that night she was back to business and joined friends at Buchon for dinner. The following afternoon Eva and Ken suggested Posh wear something "waterproof" for the party, but instead of sacrificing fashion Victoria chose a bright shade of purple for the festive occasion. Fellow fashionable mom Rachel Zoe picked out an ensemble from her own signature collection and accessorized with a Proenza Schouler bag and Chanel sunglasses. Rachel continued her celebrations yesterday at her first Mother's Day brunch at the Chateau Marmont with her family and best friend, and shoe designer, Brian Atwood. Victoria later left the party with a carload full of girly gifts including a Quinny Buzz Special Edition stroller in pink and a 5 ft. custom-made giraffe. Eva went from one party to the next making her way south of the city to Disneyland where she attended the Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides premiere later that night.
