Summer is slowly winding down soon a rush of moments will pass us by and the Holidays will be upon us. Descending in a flurry of excitement and joy the holidays are a time of celebration and of course gift giving. We recently spent an evening being introduced to a specially selected assortment of products for the upcoming holidays. The Editor’s Showcase is a series of events that brings brands face to face with bloggers, buyers, and insiders for a chance to network and sample products before they reach store shelves. Last month’s showcase was all about the holidays featuring products to enrich your holiday experience. Some of our favorites from the evening included:
