this is what he purchased:

the whole la mer line( which was for him), keihls lavender talc, the whole lavender aqua di parma line( like incense, lotions, candles, room spray etc...), he had 3 people with him ( 2 guys and one girl) who i thought were assistants or friends, they purchased "fresh" palomino and sake candle and one from diptique..... it was great! i went to the show and loved every moment! very small and intimate! a lot of smiths songs... it was wonderful being on "the list" ! oh my! loved it!!

        I reckon they're for James Maker, but one must wonder if Morrissey could hold them up to him.

        Boom tsh.

        I'll go.

        So did you go to the show? Anyone else recognize him?

              as this implies, then who is the mysterious Tina Deghani, who is thanked first on the list of Quarry's credits? I always assumed she must be his personal assistant.

              Maybe the skin cream (la mer is like the most expensive skin cream in the world ever) and lavender candles are for her!

                  While in San Francisco last year (I'm from the UK) I remember loads of people outside of a Neiman Marcus waving banners and shouting at people going in because the shop sells real fur... Has that changed, or was Moz really shopping at somewhere that suppors the fur trade?

                    Now this is starting to sound pathetic already. You guys are making Morrissey an obsession, the last thing we need is Morrisseys photo pasted all over People magazine with his picture pasted all over with the paparazzi hunting him down just to get a glimpse of his private life.

                      Great story, and how nice you got to see the show!

                      I know a little about aromatherapy. Apparently, lavender helps the emotional well-being of people who consider themselves anxious, depressed, irritable, or stressed-out.

                      I think he made a good choice.
