How can anyone not love hats and scarves this time of year? Or anytime of year? Any excuse not to do my hair is heaven sent. Just last week, our new hat and scarf line arrived and I will tell you that I’m in love. Completely. Can a girl have too many hats? And shame on me for ever shunning scarves as a staple accessory and not just practical use. Double shame on me.

Forget for a moment that we’re hosting a super duper shoe giveaway (ok you really shouldn’t) but switch gears and check out this, this, and this. Now, tell me what you think. Do you love them as much as I do? Don’t even get me started on the scarves. I want one of each and I tell you this job is terrible for me. I suppose I can safely say that I’m accumulating fantastic items to outfit my entire posterity for eternity. Thank goodness it’s filled with girls.

We’ve marked tomorrow for the official launch of The Recessionista Shop but don’t get too comfortable yet because we are going to completely redesign the entire shop in the weeks to come. In the meantime, enjoy 30% off everything (do the math….there are some killer deals) starting tomorrow and ending Thursday at midnight. For all you handbag lovers, plenty of eye candy right here. We’re still adding vigorously to the shop.

Enjoy!

ps – isn’t our model lovely? Stunning and beautiful? I only wish I could claim this was me:)

pps- interested in our referral program for our 30% off event where you can get free product? Shoot me an email s’il vous plait.

We’ve been gearing up for a big local event tonight after a much needed sabbatical. (Are you local and want to know the details? Shoot me an email). New shoes, handbags and everything in between. Oooohhh being a girl is actually quite exciting. And for all of you that have sent your wishlist, you’re going to love Valentine’s Day. And don’t worry, we’ll still accept them until Wednesday of next week.

Keep peeking in the shop the next few days as we add our latest arrivals.

And our logo is up here…..isn’t it pretty? Happy Weekend!

Can I just tell you that I never knew so much cool/amazing stuff existed? I know, I’ve been living in my sub-zero degree bubble for what feels like most of my life, but seriously! We opened our online shop on Black Friday in test phase and had a tremendous response. We tweaked some things and have done some major shopping with all our customers in mind. We are now planning an official launch of the Recessionista Shop January 26th. We will start with an introductory sale, marking EVERYTHING 30% off for three solid days.

A tiny morsel of the lovelies….(the shop is still only about 50% full).

Since we’ve ceased our physical party days until we can stand outside and breath without our nose hairs forming ice crystals, YOU will have first dibs on everything you see. And to make it even better, all orders over $20 will ship for free. (Those under $20 will only have a flat $2 shipping charge).

And rest assured, we are still adding items like crazy. We have hundreds of hats, scarves, handbags, men’s designer ties for dirt cheap (ladies…think Valentines), shoes, and more jewelry to add throughout the week.

To all of you who have emailed with interest in RPDD (Recessionista Party Deal Day), I will send some correspondence to you by Tuesday….I promise. You all are just fantastic and well, love is in the air.

It’s Monday again, which means you know where I’ll be.

Due to the hundreds of emails we’ve been receiving regarding our online shop and being some of our early testers, we have exciting news for you- our initial readers. Because we value your opinion, we are inviting all of you exclusive insight into our online shop this Friday and Saturday.

For saying Thank-you and in honor of Black Friday weekend, I will post a coupon code right here Friday morning for an additional 30% off everything in the shop. The coupon will be good until Saturday at midnight.

In return, we ask you to send emails to moi at recessionistaparty (at) gmail (dot) with your suggestions, opinions, advice, etc… Keep in mind that our inventory is about 1/3 of what it will be when the shop officially launches (sooner than later we hope); but please, tell us what you would like to see. We want to know if the site is easy to navigate and if all the functions work properly. Any problems, glitches, improvements to make things easier are vital to our success. Also, this will be prime training time for our shipping crew.

In addition, our crazy Doorbuster Deal will be our tees in three different styles for a steal of a deal. And might I add that I’m in love with these tees, all of them. In fact, I think I own one in every color available.

Long Sleeved Burnout Tee $14.99

You will be able to see all colors available in the shop for each shirt, and I will post the link to the shop early Friday morning. The Doorbuster Price on the t-shirts will show up after you enter your discount code. Oh and let’s not forget that we will also announce the winner of our gorgeous Coach Bag Giveaway!
