All Wrapped Up

Like I said before, I love wrapping presents.
I think it's important to {pun intended} have a package deal: great gifts need beautiful wrapping.
No matter how big or small the gift, the extra effort will show...and will definitely be appreciated.

I always go for a theme...based on a ribbon, paper, or color.

Seeing Purple

Banana Republic + Purple = LOVE

Hi, my name's Lauren and I have a purple problem.
Actually, I take that back, it's technically not a problem...it's football season.

So I was window shopping the other day and I happened to pop into my local BR and I wanted everything in there. Seriously, it's intoxicating. Minus the fact that they have a great fall collection: layering sweaters, structured blazers, gorgeous trims and details...I could go on and on...they have some fabulous pieces in my favorite hue: PURPLE!

I'm running out of room on my Christmas List...thanks a lot BR....
