How do I leave a comment?
A few people have asked me how to leave a comment on MyLittleBoudoir.com. This made me realize that perhaps it’s not so obvious. I recognize that the font size is rather small and tends to blend in with my “tags”. And since I willfully admit that I have no idea how to change the font size in that area, I will instead provide you with a quick visual tutorial: Step one: Steps two through six: I love to hear your feedback, so feel free to comment as much as you like! Plus, sometimes it can even be a way to enter for a give-away, like this vintage Chanel print ad.…

Give-Away: Vintage Chanel Print
Some of you may remember my post back on January 22nd titled, “Boudoir Treasure…Vintage Chanel Print” about my fabulous ebay find; a vintage Chanel print ad. Well, as I stated, I bought two. One for me and one for a lucky My Little Boudoir reader. This beautiful original 1944 Chanel powder print ad could be yours. Imagine how beautiful it would be if you framed it in black and hung it upon the wall in your boudoir, perhaps near your dressing table. The small text reads, “A VERY FINE FACE POWDER WITH THE MOST TREASURED NAME IN PERFUME.” Enough said. You can be entered to win by doing any of…

Fashion for Relief
Since I’m guessing that most of you (including me) didn’t have the opportunity to attend Naomi Campbell’s Fashion for Relief fashion show that I posted pre-sale ticket information for back on February 5th (followed by an update the same day), I wanted to share a video clip from the show. I would have loved to have been there to support such a great cause and have the opportunity to enjoy a fabulous fashion show at the same time. 0

Olympic Fashion: Best Dressed List
Many of us are use to seeing a best (or worst) dressed list for the Grammy’s and Oscar’s, however this time around, it’s for the 2010 Winter Olympics Parade of Nations that were part of the opening ceremonies this past Friday. While it is most certainly appropriate to wear sweat suits, snow gear or down jackets as an Olympic athletic team, my votes go to those teams that were able to balance the sporting gear with some genuine style. Let’s roll out the red carpet (I mean white arena floor) and welcome the … Top 5 best dressed Olympic teams, in order: 5. ITALY Not so difficult to guess that…

I {heart} Valentine’s Day
Happy Valentine’s Day I came across these boudiful (boudoir + beautiful) red heart-shaped tufted button slipper chairs (wow that was a mouthful) the other day online and deemed them perfect for my Valentine’s Day post and oh so boudoir worthy (although the red doesn’t really go with my color scheme). Aren’t they gorgeous? They are actually antiques circa 1940. They are for sale on 1stdibs.com. Coincidentally the very same day that I found the chairs, I came across this Gil Elvgren pin-up who just so happened to be seated on a look-alike chair. I guess it really is authentic 1940’s boudoir decor. Just imagine these in your boudoir to sit…

Boudoir Essentials: The Boudoir Slipper
Every woman with a boudoir must own a pair of fabulously feminine boudoir (or house) slippers. To me a “boudoir” slipper should be a bit dressy…not the clunkers that are typical of this day and age that often times wind up looking like a mix of an old pair of clogs and something brought back from a hunting trip. No, I’m referring to a nice dainty pair of dress slippers like these: And if it is comfort you’re longing for, how about one of these little darlings? Just imagine dusting yourself with a powder puff (last month’s boudoir essential) and slipping on a pair of these beauties…pure luxury! 3
