Patricia Walker of Dallas, who describes herself as “a very private person” is suing Neiman Marcus.

For years, Mrs. Walker had a personal shopper at Neimans and spent about $100,000 a year there, which will buy you an outfit or two at Neimans.  In 2007, Mrs. Walker was in a horrible car accident that left her in the hospital for months and then homebound until 2010.

It was only then that she discovered that her yearly Neiman Marcus bill went from her usual $100,000 a year to $850,000 a year.  In all, $1.4 million of her money went to Neiman’s while she was homebound.

Only a cursory investigation revealed that Mrs. Walker’s husband, 65 year old Bobby Tennison was boinking Mrs. Walker’s personal shopper, who got a hefty commission off the million that Bobby spent, using Mrs. Walker’s money to do it.

And you thought John Edwards was a scamp!  At least he’s not a Neiman Marcus personal shopper scamp.

The cute part of the story is that the personal shopper’s name is Favi Lo.  Seriously.

Thanks to David for the heads-up.
