Secret's Out!

Admittedly, we're not very good at keeping secrets, which is why we've been DYING to share this one with you! 


You may have noticed that we'd been (not so subtly) dropping hints over the past few days about a little surprise we had in store for you.  And if you were really paying attention, you may have also noticed that we've found a new blog that we're completely smitten with.  Have you checked it out yet?  If you have, then you already know what the secret is.  And if you haven't, then we'll just have to tell you ourselves. 

LBP is featured on THEFASHIONMAGPIE, a chicer than chic blog devoted to all things sartorial and style-related!  We were lucky enough to meet the owner/writer/style maven Jen through our Etsy shop theLITTLEBLACKshop and have been devoted readers of her blog ever since.  Not only do we love it for all of its eye candy, but for its clever name too.  As Jen explains it:

For those of you lost on the title:
Magpie (n) — a long-tailed black and white crow; used in similes or comparisons to refer to a person who collects things and/or is compulsively drawn to shiny objects.  One of a few species of birds that can recognize itself in a mirror.

So, what's in it for you?  LOTS!  For starters, Jen of THEFASHIONMAGPIE has AMAZING taste and has taken the guess work out of wedding-related wardrobe decisions by providing an entire wedding season's worth of stylish, chic and completely accessorized options.  We're drooling over the dresses she's picked out.  You're definitely going to want to add her blog to your list of daily reads.  Just check out this chic little ensemble she pulled together:

Earrings, Mariam Haskell. $280



Dress, Calypso. $299



Cuff, Alexander McQueen.  $670

Shoes, Kate Spade. $325

She's also hand-selected some gorgeous stationery gifts, perfect for the newly engaged, including our future mrs. notecards.  Want more?  THEFASHIONMAGPIE is giving away  a set of personalized notecards to one lucky reader, so head on over to her blog to enter! 

There may just be one more surprise in store for you, but you're just going to have to visit THEFASHIONMAGPIE to find out...  You didn't think we were going to give it ALL away, did you? 

The Future Mrs.

Wedding season is just around the corner, which means our brides are busy attending vendor appointments, dress fittings, bridal showers, bachelorette parties and bridesmaid luncheons.  So many ocassions, so many thank you notes to write!  Although we can't write them for you, we can provide you with some absolutely gorgeous notecards to write them on. 

Introducing the "future mrs." notecard set:  chic little notecards perfect for sharing your gratitude (and your soon-to-be last name) with everyone who's making your big day so extraordinary.

 

Set of 10 folded notecards come with coordinating envelopes that have the bride-to-be's name and return address printed on the back flap for a polished look.  Of course we're partial to black & white, but the notecards and envelopes can be mixed and matched to compliment the bride's wedding or bridal shower colors. 

Click here to start checking "write thank you notes" off your wedding to do list.  Want to cross off "bridesmaids gifts" too?  Simply let us know what name/message you want to change the notecards too in the "message to seller" box during check out, or request a custom item.

p.s. - Some advice on tackling that list of thank yous?  Don't do them all at once.  This will keep your handwriting fresh and the task a little less daunting!
