I'm so happy for Laurice! Thanks for posting this, R!
Last year it went to Paula Dorf, so she is in good company!
Wow, I didn't know that, R! But Paula Dorf has taken an interesting turn and I'm not sure about it. Her cosmetics are harder to find, gone from Bergdorf and other high-end retailers, and now she is on Home Shopping Network. It may result in larger sales, in terms of volume anyway, but will she be categorized with Adrienne???
Wow, P, I had no idea she was on HSN now. I'll have to see if she still has a counter at my local Bloomingdales. I really like her eyeshadows, and Zita is a great scent.
Zita is beautiful! I'm lucky to have snagged a bottle on the uber-cheap at our local TJMaxx.
Let us know what you find out about Dorf at Bloomingdales. I'm curious to know where her line is still being sold in Brick & Mortar.
