Lovely Loungewear

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

Doesn’t every Christmas include gifts of Pjs? Lovely warm wollies to romp around in on Christmas morning and still look great. They don’t have to be all flannel and fleece either – they can be of course but  pretty and femine too.

Just thinking about another time you want to look great in your morning wear is of course, on your wedding morning! With a pro Photographer on hand you want to look your best as you get ready so I have chosen a few loungewear options for both {ooh a twofer!} because anyone would love these as a gift for Christmas or bridesmaid gifts before your wedding.

First up is Anthropologie.

And much to my poor husbands dissapointment I’d absolutely love to be wearing this around the house on Christmas day

Next in my {preferred} relaxed loungewear selections are J. Crew

And my personal choices from the J. Crew collection {ya know, just in case anyone is asking}

And on to purely pretty. These by Plum Pretty Sugar and ideal for you and your ‘maids getting ready on the morning of your wedding and, as mentioned, make super great gifts for them whether it’s Christmas or a Thank You for being my bridesmaid gift anytime.

It’s all about looking good in the morning for whatever reason!

Retro 3D Fun

Thursday, September 22nd, 2011

These give me flashbacks to my childhood. You too? Or am I just aging myself? But what a fun thing. I want one so badly right now it hurts!

Image 3D has regenerated the Viewmaster with full personalization. No longer just a reminder of your trip to Disneyland, you can use YOUR Photos, choose your own colour with any Pantone code, and put a logo or monogram on the actual viewer and/or on the disk AND packaging.

So imagine what you can do with them for weddings? One or two at your photobooth or guestbook would be fun, but what about one per table? Save the dates???? That would be fabulous!

You know how you have named your tables after places you have been? Well put your photos taken at that place on a disk with a viewfinder at each corresponding table.  Get them as gifts for your bridal party full of images of themselves at your wedding.

For wedding professionals. Do I even have to tell you how you can use this for marketing? Put your brochure on one! Do you do Wedding shows? Take one or 2 with images from your portfolio and I guarantee you the brides will be there in droves!

Or what about as a gift to your couple after the wedding as a ‘Thank you’ with images of their wedding.

Oh yes, I love these. WANT one!

Saturday Quickie

Saturday, August 20th, 2011

I haven’t done any foodie posts for a while and recently Stumbledupon this yummy recipe.

Who doesn’t love brownies? and I also love chocolate covered pretzels {haven’t seen any here in Ireland though :-( } and my old home favourite, peanut butter so you can see why these caught my attention!

Peanut Butter Fudge Pretzel Brownie

Ahh! A little sweet and a little salty. I’d love to find one of theses in a lovely little wax paper bag like this one from Jilly Bean Kids after a wedding

or to keep the energy up while dancing. – Or maybe I’ll just make them next weekend!

I found them on How Sweet it is and you can get the recipe here.

Enjoy!
