On a warm Sunday in Los Angeles, with temperatures reaching 80 degrees, Annie Meyers-Shyer celebrated the release of her book, This Oak House, which details the renovation of her 1940s Beverly Hills residence. The event was hosted by her mother, filmmaker Nancy Meyers, and featured caviar, lobster rolls, and Hugo spritzes, all enjoyed in a backyard adorned with women wearing Dôen dresses. Meyers-Shyer discussed her philosophy on entertaining, emphasizing effortless preparation and the use of AI for oven timing, a practice inspired by her mother. She advocates for ample food, enjoyable music, and a diverse guest list, favoring loose flowers. Nancy reminisced about her best party, her wedding in that very backyard, as guests exchanged stories about their homes.
