ACTRESS ALI WENTWORTH IS COMING TO U7!

HAPPY VALENTINE”S DAY! WE HAVE CHOCOLATE AND CHAMPAGNE TODAY!!

Actress, comedienne, author ALI WENTWORTH is coming to Upstairs on 7th! On Tuesday, March 6th from 6-8 pm come to U7 to meet one of the funniest women of our day and get a signed copy of her new HYSTERICAL book ALI in WONDERLAND! I have already read it and seriously it is laugh out loud funny. A memoir that is a love letter to her mother who is almost as funny as Ali, Ali in Wonderland is filled with stories about her life in Washington, Los Angeles and New York with husband George Stephanopoulos. Dinner will be served and you can purchase the book and have Ali sign it for you. When you are done reading it, give it to your mom for Mother’s Day if you are lucky enough to still have her or better yet, buy her a copy too. She will see herself in it and laugh out loud too! Remember Schmoopie in the iconic Soup Nazi episode of Seinfeld? That was Ali.

Please let me know if you are planning on attending the Ali event so that I can make sure there are enough books and food. IF you cannot come but would like Ali to sign a copy for you, let me know and I will make sure that happens. Other exciting details to follow about this event as soon as I can confirm them. My huge thanks to Sissy Yates, our popular jewelry designer, and sister to Ali, for helping to arrange this for us. (Ok, she probably begged, but it worked! We are on the book tour!) See Ali on her daily online five minute show The Daily Shot with Ali Wentworth. It is a great way to take a break and laugh!

In other ok, sort of boring news. . . . I mean what could follow THAT? the Comfy or some of it will be in tomorrow or Thursday. It is a partial shipment but I am sure the tees for summer are in the box. They are the same as the long sleeves ones but they have short sleeves for summer. They are meant to go underneath your jackets, sweaters and other tees so not to worry, your arms won’t show. As you know they go fast. They come in white, black, cocoa and gray. There is some Sun Kim in the box too but I will not know what styles until I open the box.

I have a new intern this semester, Ama. She is lovely and unlike the last one did not get fired on her first day. I mean she got me chocolates, how could I let her go?

All the summer bags are in and are quite nice, in colors. I got more of the colorful purse accessories if you missed them the first time and all the Manouk jewelry has arrived!

Don’t forget the Kedem Sasson trunk show on February 28th and 29th with jeweler Annemieke from Amsterdam. It is really going to be the biggest and best show for spring. For those of you who ordered Kedem from the last show it should be in by show time. Our rep Andy for Kedem is the rep for Niche too so he is going to bring pieces from that line also.

THE STORE WILL BE CLOSED on Monday for President’s Day and I hope you all have a fabulous weekend.
