The Bounty

The Alive! Green Expo emerged from the womb of the Sofitel in West Hollywood today (Fri 20 Feb).  Think of it as ” the whole foods of gifting suites”. The goods even come in a cloth bag you can use to take actual Whole Foods groceries home with consciousness (ie: without killing trees).

Universal-Stone: This all natural cleaner can somehow erase Sharpies. From marble, tile, wood, or even a drunk passed out person's face (their story, not mine).

In a semi green moment, we saw “Blowout Star” Jonathan Antin smoking a cigarette near some green bushes on Beverly out front, Andrew Dice Clay looking like he also knew A-Rod’s cousin rocking indoor sunglasses, and 2 American Idol kids still on the show, oblivious to Oscar week, hanging around the lobby kind of getting noticed intentionally.

Lipstick Bailbonds: More Pink than Green. They pick up the falsely accused in a monogrammed Pink Humvee, feed them lipstick chocoates and give customers clean pink clothes to wear or a hat to hide their face. If they skip bail, pink handcuffs and a mace gun await. We demo'd both.

The Alive Green Expo continues through tomorrow (Saturday 21 Feb).

Sheiki Jeans kicked off Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Spring 2009 at Smashbox Studios in Culver City tonight (Sun 12 Oct).

While there were giftbags on every seat, they were tiered — The Front Row guests got better stuff.

Model Vida Guerra (FHM’s “Best Butt Award ‘05,’06) , famous only for her, (ahem) end, ironically made a guest MC appearnce at the beginning. …only 34 minutes late.

These two writers, our front row neighbors, jammed full giftbags in to their purses quickly.  Anything we can sell on Ebay? Let’s find out….Giftbag Recon:

Left to Right: Red paper Sheiki bag with red tissue paper, Kitsch ‘N” Kouture gold plated choker necklace with a gun pendant shooting a heart, white “Got Peace?” baseball hat with the flag of Israel on the side, pink Sheiki T-Shirt (size small) with boombox graffiti on it, big white bottle of Philosophy shampoo, shower gel & bubble bath, blue mini jar for carrying weed Yume Blush, MC2 silver chain earring thingies, gift certificate for 50% off 360 Massage, book of model chicks wearing Sheiki, coupon for 20% of lingerie at Frederick’s. Front: Frederick’s of Hollywood royal blue panties (size small), Think Thin Energy bars, and cranberry panties (size medium — in case the energy bars got in the way of ‘thinking thin’)

Aubrey O’Day (LA Quinta H.S. - CA ‘02, Expelled from Danity Kane ‘08) brought her pink puppy and some hair gel to the show. She sat 4 seats to my left.

Congrats to LJ, AA, and TheGarage, and thanks for looking after us.

Vaguely Left to Right. One night stand clues in green.

“Bed Head” Products everywhere. Besides the overall connotations of “bed…er… head“, love the appropriately moniker’ed “After Party” pink stick-a-majig as the first item in this after party gift bag. Also, a bottle of red “hook up mousse”. I always need “hook up mousse” on Sunday nights.

“Post Partum” headline screaming from the cover of the Magazine.
