He, along with Lindsay Price, her BF and How I Met Your Mother star, Josh Radnor and Zac Posen were the celebs we saw in attendance.
The Lucky Tom eye shadow palette features Creme Royale, Paradisco, Stylin' and Lucky Tom:
We can only hope the 50th Anniversary Barbie Fashion Show on Valentine's Day lives up to the high bar Hello Kitty set!
