How The Glitz Stole Christmas Blogger Swap!

When I saw that Raven and Lindsey were hosting a blogger gift swap called How The Glitz Stole Christmas, I was IN. 

Package on my doorstep?  Yes, please.
A reason to go shop?  Yes, please.
DID YOU SAY GLITZ?!  Yes, please.

We were randomly assigned a partner to shop for, I was so happy that I that I got paired up with Leslie from eat.pray.love.run.  This sassy Texan had me laughing in our emails, and I loved the chance to get to know her better.

Leslie spoiled me, ya'll.  Here's what arrived for me:

Inside was a sparkly silver box...



... which contained a shimmery gold card for me and lots of other goodies!

Glittery red nail polish (PERFECT - love it), a blinged-out pen, a look-at-me cocktail ring, a gold faceted bead bracelet, silver glitter snowflake ornaments which look SO good on our tree, a faceted jewel-toned long necklace, and that infinity scarf.  Oh my word I'm in love.

I mean, does Leslie know me or what!  I love everything, and I hate to pick favorites, but that scarf has my heart.

In fact, I wore it yesterday to Dee's annual ornament and cookie exchange.  Here we are in her gorgeous home.  By the way, she went all out -- the cutest printables you've ever seen, tons of delicious food, and even little treats for all of us -- baggies with peppermints and peppermint hand sanitizer.  Too cute.

And this morning I'm wearing the necklace.  It is a new favorite of mine!  The phone pic just doesn't do it justice to how sparkly it truly is.

(Excuse the unpainted nails, they are getting a little break from the polish, but that sparkly red polish will be on them tonight!)

So thank you again to sweet Leslie and the lovely swap hostesses, and if you want to see some more recaps of what other bloggers got in the swap, just visit The Bargain Blonde or A Momma's Desires and Pacifiers for the link-up!
