Cherry Handbag Organizer perfect for LV bags

Jacqui — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 03:30:05 +0000

I was invited to the charity event at the LV store on Bloor today. It was held in honor of Chris Bosh. Not being a big sports fan, I was wondering what this was all about. According to the personnel at Louis Vuitton – Rappers and basket ball players love LV and are supporters of the brand, so they thought it would be a great idea to let the Music and Sports world collide and at the same time throw it a few shopaholics like myself in the mix.

So the event tonight is to meet and greet Chris Bosh ( famous Raptor’s basketball player) and part of the proceeds of tonight’s sale is donated to Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada.

Obviously I could not find a better excuse to shop. So I was testing out all these handbags. You should have seen the WoWs and Ahs… as I yanked out my medium size cherry handbag organizer and plopped it into different handbags. The manager at LV started asking me where did I find this, patrons were putting up their hands that they want it too.

So at the end of the evening, I am the proud owner of a new LV bag and gained a few potential lovers of the Cherry handbag organizer - a gadget to fuel their passion for switching handbags.

Diva Day – end violence vs women

Jacqui — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 17:53:57 +0000

The word “Diva” (English pronunciation: /ˈdiːvə/, Italian: [ˈdiːva]) often relates to prima donna with a negative connotation.

However, Diva day is really a day of positive energy brought on by “girl power” to make the world a better place. From 10am to 3pm, you get to learn about how to better your life, do some yoga, sample some great food and do some shopping. Perfect day out with your girlfriends, mom and daughters.

Goneshopping.ca participated last year. You know us, we are just a few Geeky shopaholics hiding behind the computer. So this is our big day out and one of the very few events we show up to.

Not knowing what to expect, we were out there for the experience. For the very least, I can get to shop a bit too. Well, I was pleasantly surprised. The energy was amazing, people were so nice and happy. Shoppers were easy going and provided us great feedback. Well, from the shopping pattern we saw – they are Glam and Green.

So we are back again this year.

Support to end violence against woman and come out to DIVA DAY. Hope to see you there. Come by our booth. Bring a print out of the blog, and I have a special gift for you. See Ya!!!
