A Rabbit in the Hat

With my daughter's 2nd birthday quickly approaching, I am officially in party planning mode. While I am not sure of the theme just yet, I am certain she will be wearing the same party hat as last year. It’s too darn cute not to reuse! A Rabbit in the Hat Party Hats are handmade by San Francisco based designer Leigh Metcalf. Each hat is covered in whimsical fabrics and adorned with pom-poms, ruffles and rick rack. And the construction and quality of the hat is hands down. If it can survive a Toddler playing with it nearly every day for the past year, it’s sure to last many more years to come.

While new designs are added often, they do sell quickly. Therefore, if you see one you like, scoop it up before someone else does!

Trying Something New, So Bear With Me!

To all my miaraeverrengia.blogspot.com readers which consist of my Mother, Husband, 5 closest friends, a couple of cousins and an Aunt who visits this blog when a relative is there to show her how to use her computer (God Bless her). As you can see from the two posts below I am trying something new. For those who know me, you would probably say that the two things I enjoy most are buying things and then telling you all about them (sorry). Well I have decided to put it all into words and create a web site for my product reviews for no other reason than, I need a hobby. I don't claim to be a know it all; I just really love to share good things when I come across them. Once I have created my site I will be sure to share it with all of you. In the mean time, I will be posting on Mia's blog.

I hope you will all support me by reading & commenting. And if there is something specific you would like me to research and post about, just let me know by commenting or emailing me at jenverrengia@gmail.com.

Thanks!

A Clutch that Doubles as an Agenda - -


I am proud of the fact that I've gone completely paperless when it comes to keeping a calendar and I would not trade my iphone in for the world. However, every now and again I miss toting around my trusty DayRunner when I need a place to store items such as bills, greeting cards, stamps and my daughter's school forms, to name just a few. That is why I love the Tarrytown Nikolette by Kate Spade. This envelope clutch measures 7.6" by 10.5" and features a snap closure. It’s the perfect size to store those papers you never seem to have a place for and it fits easily inside an oversized handbag or laptop case. The best part about it is that it doubles as a clutch, which is what I believe it was originally designed for. Just throw in your phone, wallet and some mints and you’re off! So, there you have it. By day it's the perfect agenda and by night it's the perfect clutch. I bought mine in a cheerful Kelly Green color which I was lucky enough to nab on sale at the Kate Spade store at Garden State Plaza. I'll let you in on a little secret, if you hurry, I believe they have one ruby red one left and it is on sale for $56.00! Believe me, it won't disappoint. Not only is it functional, you’ll look good in the process.
