Oscar Cue Card Cases For Flustered Nominees

Filed under: Handbags, Celebrity Shopping


The Academy Awards ceremony is always full of special moments some of them pre-planned and some of them deliciously spontaneous. For the winners who are suddenly called to the stage and are worried about having their thank you notes at the ready, designer Lauren Merkin has created cue card cases. The little leather cases are done in gold leather and feature one of three helpful reminders: remember waterproof mascara, always act surprised, and the all-important don't forget to thank your husband. The cases are being given to all the female Oscar nominees such as Helen Mirren, Judi Dench and Kate Winslet.
