Yes, it finally happened. We told you several weeks ago that we knew the stunning Shu Juan Lu wraps were going to be on sale.
Well, the boutique's Birthday Bash Sale starts today. And - the sale includes the fab couture wraps, along with some pieces from the Barbara SilverStein Collection, the flirty straw bags from Bahay Bags, plus a number of other items.
Psst: those wraps are 30% off! Big savings, as the Circle Wrap II is normally priced at $1550. During the sale, you can pick up the beauty for $1085. Now, that's a good deal!
What on earth are you talking about, you ask? Yeah, it is a rather odd headline isn't it? So let us tie it all together.
Yesterday our post was about a beautiful set of natural horn salad servers - a set that would make a great wedding gift, or perhaps a housewarming or hostess gift.
Weddings - we keep reading about destination weddings; and with that in mind, our thoughts turned to - Greece - a wedding in Greece! Just the thought of it sends shivers of excitement all over!
And what is one of the dishes that Greece is renowned for? Why the Greek salad, of course! So we thought, why not present your giftee with a set of lovely horn servers - and - a recipe for a fabulous salad. And here's one we think is terrific, along with a video. Enjoy!
