It's Always an Honor to be Nominated...Even If You Didn't Know You Were!

Yay! It's always fun to see your company in the press, but it's a bigger kick when you get to see yourself! We all know what supporters EG is of Women, giving back and our support to the community around us and the one across the water. However I just work, it is what I do. I am proud to be part of a company led by strong and intelligent women, who push me to succeed and make sure the EG footprint left behind is a positive one.

As the writer Francoise de Motteville once said: The true way to render ourselves happy is to love our work and find in it our pleasure.

My Grandmother always told me she was and still is excited to go into work and make sure teh job gets done well... not just completed. This article really makes me happy and something that even though was a complete surprise ( thank you April) definitely pushes me to work harder!

Naomi May Have Recently Stopped Throwing Phones, But She Still Kicks Ass On The Runway

Hey All,
So thanks to the lovely Hofit Golan, we were proud supporters of Fashion Cares for Relief. What is Fashion Cares for Relief you ask? Good Question. This comes directly from their website: http://www.whiteribbonalliance.org/

who we are:

Welcome to the White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood.

Every minute of every day, a woman dies of pregnancy related complications, totaling more than one half million women each year.

We are here to change that.

The White Ribbon Alliance is an international coalition bound together by a common goal: to ensure that pregnancy and childbirth are safe for all women and newborns in every country around the world.

Our coalition is 104 countries strong, full of men and women who are committed to our cause. But we need you to be even stronger.

We at EG know the affect first hand of what can happen, which is why the charities we choose to be involved with are those close to our heart. We want to be the change, we want to see in the world, instead of just chat about it. Elizabeth Grant has always believed in giving back which is why we established EG Cares, our Charitable Fund established to help support diverse charitable groups - meeting their requests with donations of money and/or product.

The site says: "play your part" which is something EG is proud to be a part of.

It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!!!

No not Christmas...It's the combination one-two punch of TIFF & NYC Fashion Week!!!! I love this week, however still find it a bit annoying of the overlap...but that's just me. Anywho-- Elizabeth Grant has made sure to be in all the best hotspots.

We LOVE NYC! It is just that simple. However we were busy jetting back and forth between TIFF and NYC Fashion Week. After a couple of Will's parties we found ourselves at the Bryant Park Hotel as it kicked off the week with gorgeous designs by Ottavia et Emma. Gorgeous designs, this designer has brought the simple, sleek and sexy chic back to women's clothing. SOmething I have truly missed from my days in Europe, but take a look for yourself at: http://ottaviaetemma.com/menu.html

Ps Yes that is Joan Allen.

It's Been A Whirlwind --But Hey That's The Nature of The Game!

It all began as a simple week, next thing you know, I am in three countries in a week and a half! Crossing borders, time zones and oceans may be sexy to some.... hell it's sexy to me too!

What a bang it began with, the 33rd Annual Toronto Film Festival (aka TIFF)! Bringing it home to Toronto, EG was on the scene in a BIG way! First and foremost only the top VIP's got their hands on EG products in the official Tribute gift bag.

From the bags, to the scene--we hopped on board with the guru behind the official parties, press conferences and just the laid back lounges of TIFF with PeachStone Media's William Hamilton. With his trusted hand, we got to spend the likes with the up and coming and the established in the entertainment industry! For all you readers, here's a tip, keep your eyes peeled for a VERY hot actor in Israel (physically and in movies) Eyal Simko.

The run down of the events and the whose who were as follows....

The Film Lounge parties during the 2008 Toronto Film Festival include:

· September 6, 2008:

o 6:00pm-9:00pm: Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture & Heritage Reception with His Excellency Mohamed Khalaf Al Mazrouel

o 8:00pm-11:00pm: Deadgirl Premiere Party with Shiloh Fernandez, Noah Segan and Michael Bowen

o 10:00pm-1:00am: Heckler Premiere Party with Jamie Kennedy

· September 7, 2008:

o 6:00pm-8:30pm: SonyBMG / MovieTunes Launch Party

o 10:30pm-1:00am: Zack and Miri Make A Porno Premiere Party with Harvey Weinstein and Elizabeth Banks

· September 8, 2008:

o 10:00pm-1:00am: Nothing But The Truth Premiere Party with Matt Dillon and Kate Beckinsale

Not too shabby, if I do say so myself!

Bisous
