Lolly and I had a heck of a time figuring out what to get a Hollywood gal while staying within the
pink and $30 parameters.
So, we didn't...
I mean, what's pink without green anyway?
And, since we knew the
Mrs had some Missies and a Master at home, we included some Sweet Lulu
stripey straws and
cupcake liners...
In keeping with the Hollywood theme, we decided to go
off script just a smidge with thee Martha Stewart blessed
LePen Markers in a variety of colors. To keep the pink one company, natch...
Lolly thought taking the vintage route would showcase us East Coast ladies in a hip light
sooo into the box went
The Original Preppy Cookbook and
The Original Preppy Joke Book followed by a
difficult to part with Karen Callan pretty moc croc mirror compact thingy...
Some pink taffy...a bundle of pink and white striped grosgrain ribbon...and our Swap box was LA ready...
Make that,
some pink taffy...a bundle of pink and white striped grosgrain ribbon...and a weensie deduction of pink confetti...
Being big girl generous can be hard when you're still so little...
Kindness of Monograms and Manicures for being big girl generous with her time and patience putting this whole shebang together. I tell ya Hopsy, Martha's got nuthin on your skills, time management, thick lustrous hair and talent...XXOO
I think I would get her a bag of her own confetti just 'cause she's so darn cute!
ReplyDeleteLove your package of goodies.
Great pink and green pressies! Love the pile of kitty toys in the background :-)

What a great pink swap partner you were. Lucky One Fabulous Mom! I'm obsessed with Le Pens - may need to pick up a few more colors after seeing your rainbow of colors!
ReplyDeleteInfamous doesn't mean what you think it means.
ReplyDeleteI know she'll love it! Everything is so cute. The straws are awesome

You are such a great pink swap partner! I adore that you gave her the preppy cookbook and jokebook.
ReplyDeleteI do swoon for Le Pens!!! Even if they did ruin my Hermes scarf. Such a great care package! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI think your cats need their own twitter. Or blog. Like Martha's dogs, only BETTER. XOX
ReplyDeleteLove it! So much fun. Great post :)
ReplyDeleteAlice,
ReplyDeleteJon just called from work and told me he's leaving me for Lolly. Do you have a guest room for him? He's not a picky eater.
Warmly, Kathleen
Hahaaa...well, he may change his mind once he finds out she's a pre dawn alarm clock that you can't shut off. She relentlessly cries, inches from your face, til you're up. And, if you try covering your face with a pillow, she stands on it, finds the one li'l crack of air space, and cries into it. Annnd if those tricks don't work, she climbs to the top of the upholstered head board and dive bombs you. For hooouuurs...XXOO
ReplyDeleteLolly sounds like my now deceased cat named Zsazsa who had similar morning tricks. TheThe cats at least need their own Facebook page. I can't believe you parted with the Official Preppy Cookboo
ReplyDeleteYour cats are so darn cute.
ReplyDeleteI know I've said it before, but I am absolutely in love with those kitties!
ReplyDeleteSeeing all that pink and green reminds me: Have you found a replacement for your retired LP robe yet? If not, I think you'd like this one.... http://www.gretchenscottdesigns.com/top/silly-sleepwear-1/ruffle-neck-robe.html
