    Christmas Recap

    I hope you are enjoying the Holidays! I sure am. Our first gift (or blessing, rather) actually came before Christmas. My Step-Father had his life saved during a massive heart attack. He is doing well now, and that is the best gift of all, for which I am very thankful. I have to say, I am also quite pleased with those gifts found under the tree, too. Here are some of the fabulous gifts that I received this year. I’d love to hear what you received…feel free to leave a comment! 1. Gucci Guilty 2. Tiffany & Co. Envelope (aka Business Card Holder) 3. Coach Julia Patent Card Case and…

    New York…New York

    As I stated on the post Couture Cotton, I am preparing for a trip to New York. One of my favorite cities in the world. I am actually traveling for business (for my real job), but I will be staying over the weekend to visit some places that are on my “list of places to visit” (yes, I do keep a list). I will also be visiting some family. I am looking to all of you boudoir beauties that may live in the NYC area that could direct me to any other boutiques, museums, restaurants or the like, that would be worth visiting in the short amount of time that…

    Tiffany & Co. Inspired Boudoir

    In my current boudoir, which I share with my husband, I often daydream about what my very own little boudoir would be decorated like. What if you had a boudoir that was inspired by something you adore? Since the topic of my recent posts have been Tiffany & Co., let’s take a look at how to create a Tiffany & Co. inspired boudoir. 1. FURNITURE Tiffany blue (or white to contrast, if you’re using a Tiffany blue wall color) headboard, trimmed in faux diamond upholstery tacks by Diamond Head. I L.O.V.E. IT!! As you can see, it is inspired by the famous “Tiffany blue”, the white ribbon and, of course,…

    Have your cake and eat it blue…

    The “LBB”, little blue box, cousin to the “LBD”, little black dress (that was made so popular by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s), is recognized by women across the globe as the home of all things fine and sparkly. If a celebration calls for a little blue box, whether it’s a birthday, wedding, or the like, there is no reason not to take the celebration one step further and have your cake and eat it blue. Here are some LBB’s that will have you drooling in more than one way… 0

    Summer at Tiffany…the book

    One thing I love to do when I have time alone is curl up and read a good book. Since, today, my bedroom serves as my “boudoir”, I usually lie in my bed to read. In my dream (and hopefully near future) boudoir (of my very own), I would lie upon something like one of these to read my book or magazine of choice: This past year, on a trip to Half Price Books, I was walking down the aisle of thousands of books and it was as though the heavens opened up and shone light upon a little blue book (ok, I have to admit, realistically it was probably…

    A little blue box…the way to a woman’s heart (ok, not really, but it helps)

    This Tiffany & Co. porcelain box is a lovely gift that I received from a co-worker a few years back. I absolutely love it and have deemed it a must-have for the boudoir. I don’t see that they are still selling this size on the Tiffany & Co. website, but they do have a mini one as well as one made of crystal. Having it displayed in your boudoir evokes that feeling that only a “little blue box” can bring… 0
