Happy New Year!



Happy New Year to you all! I hope 2010 is filled with peace, prosperity and much happiness in your world! In addition, LOTS of pink and green! :-)

Do you make resolutions? I usually do - they NEVER work out. I always resolve to:

1- lose weight
2- spend less $$
3- eat more healthy

This year, I will resolve to Lose Weight and Eat More Healthy. I've already been doing this (slight problem around the holidays though!) with some success - lost 22 pounds since September. However, I will NOT resolve to spend less $$ or stop shopping. Mainly because I know it's NOT going to happen!!!! If you've seen or heard any sneak previews of the Spring or Summer 2010 Lilly Pulitzer collections, you understand what I mean! Why set yourself up to fail????

Tomorrow I will post our "southern style" New Years dinner. That should entertain you for the first day of 2010. If you like to watch Paula Deen, you'll understand. We certainly know how to cook and eat down South!

Remember to sign up to follow and enter the Lilly Pulitzer New Year giveaway! Tell your friends to do the same - I already have the goods for a second giveaway - which will happen when I reach 100 followers!

Happy New Year - XOXO, Lori

    Happy New Year, Lori! I also hit a wall with weight loss in December but am now going to get back on track. I turn 35 this July and need to do this to be truly content. I've loved reading your blog the last few weeks and I look forward to your 2010 posts.

Birthday Celebration: Lilly Pulitzer Giveaway from The Pink Pelican

Image
Today I will celebrate my birthday. I'm a little bit sad to report, the DH is out of town and won't be able to come home for the festivities. Not that it's a big deal or anything (not a milestone birthday or anything), but I am a LEO and y'all know it's true - Leos love their birthday. I'm no exception! Tonight I will celebrate with my sister and BFF by going out to dinner, and tomorrow with birthday cake and gifts with my parents, nephews and friends. I'm so thankful for it all, but I'm going to miss my sweetie. :-(  My friends at The Pink Pelican in Huntsville have generously offered a giveaway to commemorate the day!  Most of you know, they are one of my favorite Lilly Pulitzer Via shops and I buy lots of my Lilly from Angie and The Pelican Crew! I love knowing that I am supporting a small, female owned business. In today's economy, I think that is very important. If you are considering any purchases from the new Lilly Pulitzer Fall 2011 line

In addition to giveaways, there will be Shopaholic Special discounts to help with your holiday shopping! Please join me today in welcoming The Tracy Negoshian!*** You have probably noticed from previous posts that Tracy Negoshian is quickly becoming one of my favorite designers. During recent Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, I ordered so many new dresses and tunics, it was like an early Christmas present when they all arrived.  Tracy's designs are a favorite of preppy girls everywhere. They are easy to wear - the comfy jersey fabric is flowy, but somehow fitted just enough to be feminine. Many of the items I ordered work for all seasons here at the beach. Just last week, I wore the Sheada Tunic Dress is Navy Life Preserver to a casual holiday gathering. Say "hi" to Phillip and Angie - these two ke
