My sister, Melanie, is one of Bloomingdale's most noted patrons. Where I am content to find an odd scrub or cream from a shack on a street in Bali, Mel knows what's "In" on the stars' bath and beauty lists. Though I could appreciate her fifth Avenue saavy, I really didn't understand what the big fuss was.
Later, when I had my own cafe and boutique, I enjoyed being a buyer and retailer of such luxurious products. My sister, for example, loves Bliss , a bath and beauty line from New York's "hottest" spa. I was always delighted to get samples from her. My favorite is still the Lemon + Sage scent.
I usually spend my money on globe trotting; for Melanie, a busy mother of three, she spends it on pampering. (This to be sure, is quite understandable). In the near future, with our Mild Child:BODY line, I will definitely look to my sister's prowess to charm our products onto Bloomie's shelves.
