I hope you can see why I love the Stella and Dot line so much. It’s full of fun, spirited, colorful and just plain pretty stuff!

Several months ago I connected via blogland with Melanie who writes the fabulous blog Lucky and Lovely and who just happens to be a Stella and Dot representative. Melanie sent me a Stella and Dot catalog and that is when my real love affair with their product began.

In getting to know Melanie, I mentioned to her that I am on the board of directors of a non-product organization in Atlanta called The Community Assistance Center. The organization’s mission is to bring together community resources to provide compassionate assistance to persons in need, prevent homelessness, alleviate hunger and promote self-sufficiency.

One of the annual charity events for CAC is a fashion show and sale. The sale features designer fashions and accessories at bargain prices. And, this year Stella and Dot jewelry will also be included in the event. Melanie has so graciously offered to accessorize the fashion show and Stella and Jewelry will be for sale! WooHoo!

This years event is taking place June 22nd (Pre-Sale and Fashion Show) and 23rd (open shopping) in North Atlanta. Click here for all the details and location.

I’ll be there Friday evening so if you get a chance, please stop by, say hello and shop!

It’s been fun sharing Stella and Dot with you. Take a minute to check out their full catalog and make sure to stop by Melanie’s blog to say hello!

p.s. This is not a paid endorsement for Stella and Dot…just sharing the things I love with my readers!

A New Addition To My Bag Obession

August 23, 2011

Yesterday I was reading one of my favorite blogs, Greige Designs where Christina wrote a lovely post about a late summer picnic she had over the weekend. In addition to beautiful images, she mentioned French Basketeer, a company that sells authentic French baskets, carts and totes. Christina used one of their totes to carry all of her picnic goodies.

Now, anyone that knows me, knows I have a slight obsession of with handbags (totes included). I can always find a reason to add yet another bag to my ever-growing “collection”. So, after reading Christina’s post, I immediately clicked over to check out the French Basketeer website. They had me hooked with the image on the opening page…a gorgeous bright yellow tote!

Spurred by the efforts of France to reduce the amount of disposable products and waste, and eliminate the use of plastic bags in their country, French Basketeer was born and “the elimination of plastic bags was identified as a goal” for the US market.

French Basketeer’s mission is “to provide authentic French baskets, carts and totes which are practical yet stylish and to help get the word out that plastic bags are indeed, “so passé.”

I couldn’t agree more and have been using canvas totes for several years now, for all my grocery shopping. After seeing the wonderful array of totes available from French Basketeer, I’m upgrading and will be carrying one of these wonderful bags whenever I shop.

I love that their bags are perfect for grocery shopping, mall shopping and antique shopping!

Check out a few of my favorite styles:

Cassis In Fuschia–$42

St. Tropez in Rust–$43 to $48

Eze–$43

Dijon in Natural–$48

Have you given up the use of plastic bags. If not, consider a French Basketeer tote. Not only will you be saving the planet, but you’ll look Stylish in the process!

p.s. French Basketeer has a wonderful blog you’ll want to check out too!
