I know I say this every single gift guide... but this one really was so much fun to put together! I'm sure it's because I'm a dog-mama myself, but there is nothing like the sweet snuggles of our furry friends. So, I wanted to make sure to put together a fun gift guide to treat those sweet four-legged family members as well as the dog-mamas who care for them.
Hey y'all! I can hardly believe that Christmas is only 13 days away (oh em gee!!) which means that gifting season is winding down- and this is my second to last gift guide! I hope that you have had as much fun shopping them as I have had putting them together!
As I'm sure y'all can guess, today's gift guide was WAY too much fun for me to put together! There is literally nothing in this post that I would be sad if Santa brought me... it's all so colorful and fun! One of the things I love most about Lilly Pulitzer, is that when you use one of her pieces (or wear one of her dresses) it just makes you happy! Like goofy-grin-on-your-face happy! And in today's crazy and ever changing world, I certainly think we could all use that kind of happy. So whether you're shopping for a Lilly girl, or just a girlfriend who could use a colorful gift, I hope these ideas help you with your shopping!
Welcome to the next edition of "Gifting with Girl Meets Bow"- and I'm sure it's not a surprise that this is one of my most favorite editions yet because it's all about that monogram!! Next to fried foods, monograms are a southern girl's love language- and I speak it fluently! ;)
I wanted to make sure to put this guide together for those ladies in your life who love a monogram too. Since these pieces are customized it often takes a little extra time to ship- so now is the time to order! Remember: "if it's not moving, monogram it!"
Woo-hoo friends- the holiday season is HERE & I for one cannot contain my excitement! I absolutely love Thanksgiving and Christmas and the joy that permeates the air and the streets! Can you feel the holiday spirit?!
Today we are kicking off my holiday gift guide series and I'm thrilled! I know I'm not the only budget-conscious babe out there (I have so many people on my list!) so today's gift guide is filled with great gift ideas that won't break the bank and are under $25! (Some as low as $4!!!) That's right y'all- these gifts are perfect for so many people on your list!
Keep reading to find out why I love each one and who I'm shopping them for...
I know I've been saying this for several weeks now, but I cannot believe that Christmas is this week! Major freak-out going on over here! I (finally) finished my shopping this week, but in case you're still finishing up or shopping for a special gal in your life I thought it would be fun to share my wish list today!
I was more challenged this year, than any other year, to come up with ideas for myself. I don't know about y'all, but I feel like I really do have everything I "need" and even my "wants" are quite minimal! I know that this is a BIG blessing to feel this way, but it made it really hard when my friends and family were asking for lots of ideas! However, I did find some fun ideas to put together my Christmas list :) #TwistMyArm
Can I get a whoop whoop for Friday?? Man oh man I'm glad to see your pretty face weekend :) What better way to celebrate this wonderful day than a brand new gift guide- this one for the "life of the party!"
We all have those friends (maybe you are the friend), you know the ones... when they are hosting they always have THE cutest set-up, perfectly prepared, and they make party planning look like a breeze! When they are in attendance at you party, they work the room, start the dance floor, and keep the champagne flowing! So, today's gift guide is in celebration of these party people and is full of my favorite gifts for the most fun ladies or gents you know! (PS- Since I'm not planning a man-specific guide this year, you can view some amazing curated gifts for your favorite fella here :) )
Hey y'all! I'm so happy to be writing you from sunny Orlando where I'm home soaking in quality time with my family! I'm excited to be bringing you the next installment in my holiday gifting series- gifts under $25! (Don't forget that you can go to Holidays --> Gift Guides at any time to see all my previous gift guides).
There is no denying that Christmas is a pretty expensive time of year. No matter what I do, or what budget I set, I always end up spending about 5x more than planned! So that's why it's good to have a great assortment of affordable gifts in your arsenal, so that when those extra additions to your gifting list sneak up, you don't have to spend a fortune picking items up on the fly! Here's my picks for the best gifts under $25...
I'm so excited to be back today with my next gift guide and this one is extra close to my heart! As y'all may know, my baby sister is a freshman in college this year so I thought it would be fun to dedicate a gift guide to the college girls! Being in college is such a unique experience, especially as a freshman living in the dorms. You need all sorts of unique space savers, clothing for classes (and going out) and since you're living on a budget holidays are an exciting time to get those things you can't exactly treat 'yo self to on the reg!
I even asked Mallory for her advice on these ideas, so you can rest assured that the college gals in your life will love anything on this list! And if you have a teen or young post-grad, these ideas would be great for them too!
Friends I'm so excited to launch my holiday content today on the blog!! It's hard to believe that Thanksgiving & Christmas are only a few weeks away and I'm here to get you prepped and ready have the best holiday season yet! From gift guides, to style, to advice on making the most of the season, Girl Meets Bow is going to have y'all covered from head to toe (and everything in between)! Throughout the season if you want to reference any content, just head on up to the menu bar and hover over "Holidays" and then pick what you're looking for from the drop-down menu- easy as can be!
So were kicking off today with a personal favorite of mine... personalized gifts aka monogrammed heaven! You know I live by Reese Witherspoon's mantra, "If it isn't moving, monogram it!" and I've converted many of my friends and family over to this mentality as well :) There's something so extremely thoughtful about monogrammed or personalized gifts because the receiver knows that you had to plan ahead to make it happen. I also love that it instantly makes every gift a one-of-a-kind!
I've got a double-decker gift guide coming to you today, packed full of ideas for me and some easy last-minute stocking stuffers!
First off, me! :) I feel that I've started getting to that point in my life where I can afford most of what I want and need (incredibly thankful for that!), so my Christmas list is truly just fun things I love or aren't in my budget right now. As I'm getting back into reading more, I feel like I can't get enough chick lit in my life and Southern Charm looks like it will be right up my alley! For travel I am still hoping Santa brings this rolling duffle (now 50% off!), and in case my Santa is feeling super-duper generous this Tory Burch has been on my lust-list forever!
I couldn't be any more excited to share today's gift guide with you! I know I've gushed about them before, but I am just thrilled that my hometown of Lake Mary finally got the preppy style we'd been missing with Jesse's Girl Boutique! They seriously have all my favorite brands- Kate Spade, Simply Southern, Scout, Lilly Pulitzer - and every wall is packed with bright colors and the very best giftables around! So in the spirit of the holiday season & shopping local, I've paired up with Jesse's Girl to share my favorite gifts with you for all the love bugs in your life :)
This gift guide was so much fun for me to put together because it could have been called "gifts for me" since we all know what a Lilly-lover I am! ;) It was important to me to curate gifts that would not only delight your favorite color-loving girls but also wouldn't break the bank since everyone has so many gifts to get during the holidays! I think my favorite item are the adorable crab earrings- for under $30 they are a STEAL! Which is your favorite?
After a snuggly and cozy Thanksgiving at home, all I want to do is be curled up in the sweetest pajamas and watching Christmas movies and wrapping gifts! So today I thought I would round up my favorite PJ's for the cozy Christmas afternoons- tis the season y'all!
Today's gift guide was so much fun to put together and has ideas for your mom, your sister, your besties- really any girl in your life! We all know I have an affinity for a cute coffee mug and this one is perfect for the girl who celebrate everyday. I'm also a sucker for cozy gifts, so these fun flannels, soft slippers, and warm throw are perfect for a snuggly night in (for the gal who loves a good movie night!) If you've been reading here for some time then you know I L-O-V-E my Bourbon and Bowties, so let's just say this Elf will be gifting them to several ladies on my list! :)
