Bath & Body Works is suing the “Twilight” films… huh?

Bath & Body Works is suing the distributor of the “Twilight” films, hoping to get a declaratory judgment that its “Twilight Woods” line of lotions, shower gels and other products doesn’t infringe the trademark on the hit vampire franchise.

This might be the best toiletry-related lawsuit since Johnny Carson’s estate won a permanent injunction to stop “Here’s Johnny Portable Toilets” in December.

The retailer says it’s under threat from Summit Entertainment because its lotions and other bathroom products allegedly rip off the design and color palate of “Twilight” promo materials.

Confusion in the marketplace? Summit allegedly thinks so. Now Bath & Body Works has beat Summit to the courthouse to stake its claim in federal court in Manhattan.

“The term ‘Twilight’ is used so as to evoke the idea of a particular time of day when the sun is just below the horizon, illuminating the landscape,” the lawsuit says. “Whereas defendant uses the term ‘Twilight’ to refer to defendant’s teen vampire saga.”

There was also previous legal action regarding the Bella’s jacket and the Twilight perfume that reused a bottle design from another company.

Erin’s Christmas Must-Have, Number 8!

mhumust-have2.jpg

I stumbled on my 8th must have by accident. I was browsing my local Bath and Body Works and found some of the Sleep product line in one of their great end of season clearance sales. I had just started getting up really early for work and jumped on the Bath & Works Sleep line to help me get relaxed and ready for bed at night.

Cut to me pouring some of the Sleep Luxury bath in my tub I almost squealed with delight at the scent. The Lavender and Chamomile melt into the most relaxing scent and the bubble bath scents the whole room and leaves my skin feeling silky smooth and smelling perfect! 

A great gift for the busy girl in your life its a great scent and will help relax away the holiday stress. It’s also great for kids when I am feeling generous I add a little to my kids bath and it helps mellow them out for bed time.

I love Bath & Body Works Pocketbac Gels there are so many fun scents and for only $1.50 I can afford to stock up and stash them everywhere. With all the nasty germs going around this year I have stored one of these little bottles in our cars, my purse,  gym bag  and all around the house.

The warm vanilla sugar scent is delicious and perfect for the season. If you are looking for stocking stuffers these make the perfect little gift. My daughter loves the Sweat Pea and keeps it with her school stuff bag.

For a limited time, LeSportsac is offering its iconic collection of bags with Bath & Body Works PocketBac waterless hand gel, providing a stylish way to keep hands healthy. This season, trade in the typical clinical hand sanitizer for Bath & Body Works’ equally effective alternatives in fashion-forward scents. Paired with matching LeSportsac bags, the colorful formulas kill 99.9% of germs, offering clinical strength without the clinical scent.

The pocket-sized bottle contains natural ingredients and powerful germ killers that get hands clean without water (or the alcohol scent), anywhere, anytime. From November 16th to December 24th, stop by LeSportsac stores or log on to lesportsac.com to snag the bags plus a PocketBac waterless hand gel and a bounceback card good toward your next Bath & Body Works purchase—a savvy solution to winter germs.
