On Thursday night The Frisky got invited to attend a summer BBQ-themed party for the fall collection of Charlotte Ronson's "I Heart Ronson" line for JCPenney at The Lighthouse in NYC. I got a chance to chat with the designer -- along with guests like Eva Amurri, Hilary Duff, Sophia Bush, and Shwayze -- about what inspired her. "Lots of prints, plaids, florals," she said, "Those clothes you can mix and match, that just look better as they get more worn." The look is kind of '60s countryside, with a little rock 'n' roll edge. Very cute and very affordable.

Keep clicking to see who else walked the red carpet, what interesting little tidbits they shared with The Frisky, and to see me model the free I Heart Ronson dress I scored...
