Summer Me!
| | "Summer me" is not me, describing myself as summer. "Summer me!" is a demand. You know, like "Beer me!" Say it with me: "SUMMER ME!" Who is sick of all their closed-toe boots and shoes? I KNOW! Make your pedicure appointment, and perhaps that will usher summer in a bit more quickly. We want 80 degrees! We want lemonade! We want Happy Hour on the patio! We want an excuse to buy more strappy sandals! We're pretty needy. Or pretty want-y. Or just pretty. Let's go with that one. We're pretty. Anyhoo, Holiday Golightly has news! Hence the newsletter. Please proceed at your own pace. And you may want to stretch first. We don't want you to pull something.

Holiday Golightly (that's us) has a new feature we'd like to introduce. It's useful. It does Math. It puts the "fun" in "function".
Introducing: DIVVY IT UP! Divvy It Up is like having someone else do your annoying Math for you. You know how, sometimes, you'll go on a trip - or even just out to dinner - with several girlfriends and you end up splitting bills (restaurant, hotels, Chippendales nightclub)? Divvy It Up will help you settle them.
"No way" you say.
"WAY" we say.
The best part is, you may use Divvy It Up even if you haven't taken a Golightly Getaway. You can use it for that Girls' Night Out you had last week, where someone drank more than her fair share of Manhattans. You will need the receipt, though.

Remember our little handbag contest? Hmmm? Handbag? Delightful handbag?
First of all, we'd like to thank all you fab Golightly Girls who submitted your Girlfriend Getaway blog-contest stories. We LOVE the sharing! It's kind of like little vicarious vacations for everyone. It was a tough decision, but we all have to make choices.
Maybe it was the proximity to Mother's Day. Maybe it was the irresistible photo of Jolie & her mom having cocktails. Or maybe it was just a totally sweet recollection of a great Girlfriend Getaway. Our congrats to Jolie!
We also have two fab Honorable Mentions, who will receive Gift Certificates for $50 each. Congrats to Sandy Jones-Kaminski & Catherinette Singleton!

Oh yes. It's here. And if you’re
not invited to a wedding, you're probably a bridesmaid in a
wedding. And if you’re not a bridesmaid
in a wedding, you’re possibly a bride
in a wedding.
It’s inescapable. You’re going to need a dress for something. And if you're a bridesmaid you're going to need ideas for bachelorette activities. A weekend Getaway for a bachelorette party is one brilliant way to make it memorable. Destination Wedding? Pfft! Destination Bachelorette Par-TAY! In the next few weeks we are going to cover
all the Wedding What-What.
Kathy Scott Rummage, founder of BridesmaidEssentials, knows all there is to know about the trials and tribulations of the Bonds of Bridesmaidsdom (wouldn't that make a great bodice-ripper for beach reading?), and she has agreed to impart a bit of her wisdom, which we will soak up like a Tres Leches cake.
Tres Leches would make for a messy wedding cake. Don't do it. |
