Warning: Shameless self promotion – suffer through it though and you’ll get to the contest.

With just over a week’s notice, the girls of The Society pulled off a blast as always and with help from Perrier-Jouet for the champagne and of course the lovely Raymond at the Roots Flagship Store on Bloor for the venue and the discount for all guests.

It was an honour to meet and chat with all of you – a huge kiss and hug to April Mitchell-Boudreau for the most beautiful, beautiful jewellery ever from Bead Queen and to Shelly Matsos at Sexy Monky Inc for the blinged out mouse … SO Victoria Beckham, I LOVE it!!!

And of course there’s Dan Levy, host of MTV Live every night at 6pm and The Aftershow during The Hills – a show so well done and so engaging and so popular, Lauren and Audrina and Whitney made the trip to Toronto a few weeks ago to promote the season finale. One day this boy will be the new ‘Nessa. But bigger and better…trust. In the meantime, here’s Dan with Tanya Kim and me rockin’ the Hello Kitty pose.

Finally…especially…to all of you for coming and the rest of you for visiting the site and making these evenings possible. Thank you, love you, owe you.

As a small token of my appreciation – I’d like to gift one of you with a Roots Tribe Leather Village Bag in dark, dark chocolate brown.

If you are interested, send an email to [email protected] with Roots Bag as the subject. One condition, super easy: Barbara Walters has been infected by Hollywood Ebola. Should the old bag retire? Yes or no will suffice.

Entry must be received by Wednesday June 13th at 6pm PST. Winner will be selected randomly. Winner contacted by Friday June 15th. Good Luck!
