Gorgeous Ladies Who Lunch...
Luvs my Oscar De La Renta SWAG Bag!!!!
Social Privy Sidebar> So... everyday at around lunchtime my beloved mother calls her baby girl for a chat. Mind you she doesn't care what I'm doing, I just better answer the phone. So in anticipation of her call I steal away from the luncheon to chit chat. So I'm blaaah, blaaah and she's blaaah blaaah. All of a sudden I sqeaul Oscar! As Oscar De La Renta walks by me. I literally become star struck which for me is rare... He grabs my free hand and double kisses me on the both cheeks and strolls down the hallway. (Wooo I'm talkin about he has a fly-@ss sauve type swagger.) I'm just standing there cell in hand and all I can hear is my mother saying Blaah, Blaah, Blaaah... I put the phone back to my ear and say "Mom Oscar De La Renta just kissed me." She says "Oh that's nice and now what was I saying... oh yeah Blaagh, Blaagh and Blaagh." (Nothing phases mother's gotta luv em.)
