CHARMAINE BLAKE’S 2017 ULTRA-GOLD EMMYS GIFTING SUITE

This one took place in a fun and classy new location for an event such as this one—the backyard of a private home right in the heart of Beverly Hills!!!

All the guests were upbeat as they mixed and mingled in the sunshine. Every single sponsor was new to me, and also to Flo, my contributing writer on this one. (Her comments are the ones in quotes throughout.) She explains the atmosphere perfectly: “Who’d guess that the backyard of a certain Beverly Hills Spanish-style mansion was filled with such a special kind of garden party? ‘New’ was the watchword here: a new kind of pizza, a new kind of feminine product, an innovative way to make an impression at the poolside with new fashions.”

So, let’s get to the highlights of what we experienced at Charmaine Blake’s Ultra-Gold Gifting Suite right before the recent Emmys:

Eyedope Sunglasses—This table was the most happening one there! The guests were constantly clamoring to try on all the attractive sunglasses from this relatively new entry into the fashion eyewear industry. I was shocked that my own funny face actually looked good in several pairs of them. There’s no better endorsement than that! www.eyedope.com

Si Mee Collections—Flo wrote about this lovely sponsor so beautifully that I have to give you her take on these beach wraps in its entirety. She said, “So you’re invited to a great pool party or off on a tropical vacation. Do you wrap a towel around yourself over your swimsuit, or throw on an oversize tee-shirt? Or do you go glam like the movie stars of days past? Rosemarie Macklin encourages ladies to ‘make an entrance’ with her custom-designed poolside attire. When we met, Rosemarie was glowing in a bright yellow short cover-up that seemed to be made of parachute silk. Available in a variety of styles from long to short, and a huge selection of lightweight, beautiful fabrics, Si Mee cover-ups will not only help you make that aforementioned entrance but let your inner princess shine while doing it!” I add only, “What she said!” www.simeecollections.com

Cosmetic LaserWorks—We both enjoyed speaking with this facial laser specialist. Afterwards, Flo exclaimed, “It’s amazing what lasers can do these days. When it comes to facial treatments, you want a certified laser specialist and a registered electrologist, and that’s what Robin Schultz Ackerman is. At her conveniently located office in Beverly Hills, she can do whatever you need, from injectables and fillers to laser hair removal, electrolysis, and micro-needling. Hmm, for me, something simple to start, like facial toning. After that, who knows?!” I do know what I need in the looks department, but I think I’ll keep that as one of my few secrets in life, and just hope that Robin can help with that. www.cosmeticlaserworks.com

Tall Order Socks—Guess for whom these classy socks are designed? I think you all guessed it–tall men, of course! They come in a variety of fun patterns, and Flo says they’re “sure to make any tall guy feel princely!” She listened attentively to what their rep told us is the raison d’etre for the brand’s existence, and deems it to be a “sad yet inspiring story.” She tells us, “Dan and Mike were so tall as kids that they were known as the ‘Twin Towers.’ Ironically, they lost their father in 9/11. Inspired by the care they received from communities both local and global, they founded Tall Order to give back to Tuesday’s Children, a nonprofit founded after 9/11.” Forget tall—these bros are kind! www.tallorder.com

Pizza Crek—After eating these delicious new takes on pizza, Flo said, “This Brazilian-style pizza solves the problem of eating slices when they get soggy and droop, and the topping spills into your lap. It’s pizza with a twist! Instead of being spread-out, it’s rolled-up, just like a burrito. The crust is thin and crispy, and the fillings are delish.” I concur! I actually feel a full-on dining review coming-up soon! www.pizzacrekusa.com

Dom’s Distributions—The fun rep from this company told me that they provide food and other wares to television’s many craft services tables. So, he became My New Best Friend right on the spot! www.domsdistribution.com

Elite Sanitary Napkins–This lovely doctor shared how these feminine hygiene products are made to help women…this is important, so I just have to say it…have less odor during their time of the month. And they’re designed to help with cramp pain at the same time!!! Yay! There are three items in the line now, with many more to come. www.elitesanitarynapkins.com
