My Gift Guide on MIMI+MEG!

Plus a little holiday tradition of ours…

Kinda cheating — this lil’ gift guide actually went live yesterday but let’s pretend it’s totally new and fresh and I’m just telling you about it. I’ll act like you didn’t already see it. But honestly, I wouldn’t care anyway because I’m pretty excited about being included and I’d tell you again! ;o)

Get yourself over to Meg’s fantabulous blog to check it out! Believe me, I’m in great company in this series — just the right kind of inspiration we all need for our über-stylish friends!

    The list is great, so chic. BUT, what you and your husband do for each other is the sweetest Christmas idea ever. I love that it also represents something special for the New Year. Love it so, so much!! :)

    I love that series and I loved your choices! My family does the same things with the ornament that represents something from that year. And I will drink a french martini toast to you with the chambord this Christmas! xoxox

    Such a great tradition! We tried the “let’s buy a special ornament every Christmas to commemorate our love” and it never happened. I pretty much wait till after Christmas to buy a few pretty ornaments on sale.

    I love that you have an ornament tradition. I give my hubs an ESPN ornament each year (hallmark comes out with a new one) and I think it is his favorite gift. Oh and we also have a picture ornament each year of the two of us, and bella of course. It’s year 6 and I’m love looking at all the past years. heading over to check it out!
