Today on Ellen

December 1st, 2009

It is no secret that Avery and I are huge fans of Adam Lambert!  We hurried home from school to watch Adam on the Ellen Show.  Adam as always …AMAZING!  Ellen is always so entertaining and it’s a treat to take time to watch her wonderful show.   I was thrilled to see Marissa Miller, Victoria Secret Model, wearing the Chaser LA Van Halen Fleece under her boyfriend blazer!  Great combination.  The hot new Van Halen fleece $48 get it at Crimson while they are in stock!   We love you Ellen!
