RECENT SWAG




OK, those of you who have been asking for a swag hog fix can take note of recent things I got from some of the more lovely pr people...sadly, a few places that offered to messenger over my post fashion or beauty preview party loot have not come through. I am a legitimate journo who writes this stuff up but I am still angry my stuff has not arrived. Pictured are a great brown crossbody bag from a recent Eddie Bauer preview in a special high-end trailer parked outside the School Of Visual Arts, only part of a big sack of M&M's with a $25 gift card for the M&M store in Times Square, two $100 Piper Lime preview gift cards and a half-pound of Starbuck's Christmas blend with a $10 gift card (I think they could have given us more than that, but there were some other food goodies and a hot and cold cup in their bag). Kohl's also makes it a habit of giving out $100 gift cards at their previews--some of our fave events of the year. Their events always have great clothes, great housewares and nice grub. Hats off even though their messenger lost two of our four gift bags that were not replaced...boo hoo! Happy holidays and a great New Year all. Signed, Your Fave Swagmeister
