I'm so excited - my gift just arrived! My secret santa was Cortney1982!

The gifts were wrapped in beautiful red brocade paper. Inside I found a l/s pink tee and a lavender ribbed tank, both from JCrew, along with a nice note on cute pink paper. The shirts are so soft, they fit perfectly, and I really needed more tops for layering, so these gifts are fantastic! And they are in 2 of my favorite colors. Thank you SO much Cortney -- Merry Christmas!!!

I am on the sofa sick with the flu and feeling sorry for myself because I am missing our annual family Christmas with my brothers, their wives, my nephew and my dad and step mom. My hubby just brought a package in for me from CHRISTINE which cheered me up and brightened my day.  It was the perfect secret santa gift for me and I can't wait to read the book and filled the album with photos of little Camille. Thank you Christine.


She gave me a pretty pick baby photo album



and this book

Her unique child care recipe is rooted in today's modern environment, yet also has a charming element of the old-fashioned nursery, allowing children and parents to enjoy one another's company to the fullest while making sure that discipline and good behavior are maintained.


Warm and loving, Miss Poppy's Guide to Raising Perfectly Happy Children shows that every child's potential can be best fulfilled in a fun-filled, but consistent, environment.

I'm glad you liked your gifts Christine!  Glad they fit too since I thought they looked so small, especially the ribbed tank.

Yeah I got my gift, my Secret Santa is from Elle. Elle thankyou so much I love the gifts, the earrings and necklace set is gorgeous. I can't wait to try out the makeup palette you got me. But my favorite out of all of them was the scarf the Elle's sister-in-law had made for me, its so warm and I love the pattern and colors. From the bottom of my heart thankyou so much!!!!!

I got mine!  Yippee!!  I checked the mail at least 5 times today in hopes that my gift would arrive.


I received a gift from Ladysi.  It is 2 pairs of cozy socks for lounging.  These are perfect for me because I always like to wear thick, comfy socks around the house.  I also got a big silver ring and the cutest blue t-shirt with a little owl printed on it.  It is totally my style, I love things with bird and nature prints.


I'll post a pic tomorrow, it is too dark to take one now.


Thanks so much, Ladysi.  I love my gift.  I think it is really funny that you were my SS and I was your sister's SS.

Oh good!!! I am so happy you like the gifts. My sister got her SS yesterday and I just laughed when I saw you address on the box. I started to think, "I seen the address somewhere.", then I saw the name and I knew why!!!!

I just got in to my parents' house and I got my secret Santa gift from fellow Atlanta girl, atlgirl. I LOVE everything she picked out... an Illume Pink Grapefruit Sorbet candle from Anthro (I don't know if you knew this, but I'm obsessed with Illume, they seriously make the BEST candles), a very chic belt/scarf from Limited that could totally pass for Missoni, and a gorgeous pair  ofmuscovite and pink mother of pearl earrings (that she designed!) which are totally my style. I couldn't have picked out a better gift for myself! Thanks so much :)


Here's a picture of my stuff... sorry it's so blurry.

Whew! I know you are particular and I am glad everything worked out okay for you. I may have to go buy myself an Illume candle now - I had no idea that they were so great. Happy holidays!

Yeah! I got my SS gift from Nicole013 yesterday! She got me this lovely pink pebbled Kate Spade agenda:




It is so completely and totally perfect! As a grad student, I'm always balancing a bunch of research meetings, etc. and I was just thinking the other day how I need some place to keep track of it all. The size of this agenda is so totally perfect to just throw in my purse too and I love how the dates are open (because some weeks are busier than others!). Also, in a nice touch, while the outside is pink, the inside cover has the cutest brown flowers- stylethread colors!

Thanks so much, Nicole! I absolutely love it!

erin, I'm so glad you liked your gift. I didn't know you considered them before. I just thought they'd be cute for your new kitchen.

I saw those yesterday at Funusual in the mall and wanted them so badly!!!!  I love fun stuff like that.  My kids are all getting pooping reindeer in their stockings this year, and I gave my secret Halloween recipients pooping black cats.  Hmmm, I didn't think I had a butt fetish......

My SS was Trixie, and she got me the cutest stuff ever ....


I'm currently digital-cam-less, but here's descriptions:


Gorgeous red and white stationery in a super-fun box with a super-satisfying magnetic clicky closure.


And a pretty multi-colored shoe picture holder (I guess it's obvious I my shoes).


Thank you soooo much! And I'm sorry I haven't posted; I just got back in town on Friday night, and I've been way too busy for my own good. Thanks!
