Now that the holiday season is officially underway, we thought you might like some suggestions for your favorite hostess with the mostess.
If your partying pal always has the yummiest homemade cookies on hand, she’ll love this cute cookie dishtowel and cookie cutter set from Swank favorite, Tag. She can make the recipe and then use the towel to wipe away the mess!
Speaking of a mess, skip the fruitcake gift, and give your party planner this cute fruitcake dishtowel instead. She’ll love its cute design and might even be inspired to make the seasons only edible fruitcake.
If she is the type to burn it at both ends and is known to throw the kind of bash that lasts well into the we hours, a candle from Voluspa might be the perfect way to thank her for the invitation. The candles come in two sizes, and price points, and the delicious Snowflake scent will add a little something to her hot event.
We hope this got you started, stop in the store for more ideas. No matter what the event is, you can never go wrong with a Swanks. Stay tuned for more perfect party gifts and special event posts!

A few weeks ago, I was looking for a good excuse to show off the stylish tabletop spread that I had recently scooped up from favorite vendor Tag, so we decided to throw a dinner party to celebrate the beginning of fall.
We were having a wonderful time that evening, catching up with friends while sipping wine, the scent of a cracking fire mingling with the crisp fall air.
Wait? Crackling fire? Is something burning?
Turns out my backyard tiki torches had burned down to the stakes. We quickly doused the flames. I popped open another bottle of wine and we all had a really good laugh.
Good times.
With the kids out of school, the endless packing and unpacking of sandy beach totes, and the random bits traipsed in and out during all of our backyard entertaining, the end of summer seems to leave my house in shambles.

We’ll be the first to admit that southern girls can be a little hard to figure out. We like to make things a little complicated and our taste in accessories is no exception. The new collection from BOE has arrived and it manages to be both girlie and modern. Sexy, but sweet. Cutting edge, but still classic.
No doubt about it, we like to be a little bit of a mystery, equal parts sugar and spice. But how to make us happy?
Well, we think that’s pretty simple.
I can still remember my first signature scent. I am probably going to embarrass myself a little by admitting this, but it was Love's Baby Soft. It came in a pink bottle with a curved top resembling a roll-on deodorant lid and smelled exactly like baby powder. I wasn't alone though, I think every girl I knew slathered on a little Love's before getting dropped off at the middle school dance. Lucky for all of us, scents have come a long way since then, and our newest line from Tokyomilk is no exception. With ten stylishly packaged fragrances to choose from, we guarantee that you will be able to find something perfect. My faves are the I Made You a Mixed Tape solid parfum and the Cherry Bomb Bon Bon lip balm. They'll be here within the week, so stop in, claim one for yourself, and you won't be left standing while everyone else is dancing.
Oops. There I go thinking about that middle school dance again...
