PC Season!

This morning Mother arrives in the Big D! I am so, so excited to spend time with her and use our Partner's Card. For those non-Dallasites out there the Partner's Card is a 20% discount card that can be used at over 700 stores in the Dallas area. You buy the card for $50 and all proceeds benefit The Family Place. The shops are packed during Partners and if you want that pair of Revas that never goes on sale you had better be waiting outside Tory at 10am on Friday morning. Things go quickly and people stock up. Last year they had all the holiday treats out at Williams Sonoma and for a while they even ran out of peppermint bark. Mother dearest and I will have our hands full with shopping, dining and meeting and greeting! We have a fun filled weekend planned and I cannot wait for it to begin!

Have a wonderful time with your mom! My mom is also coming in town this weekend. She loves the Hyer Holiday Bazaar. Have you ever been to that? Great vendors.

I received an email from Tory Burch that they are pre-selling items to be purchased with the Partners Card starting yesterday. I'm going to go by there today. I'm hoping to buy some black Revas for Dots and me to *share.*

Sounds like a super fun weekend. I am sure that you got the email, but if not Tory sent a friends and family email for the weekend. 25% everythying on the site (including Revas), and free shipping over $150.

Do you buy your Reva's a half size down? I do, but I was not sure if it was just me, or if they tend to run a bit large. Wondering because I want to buy a pair as a gift. My email is emilyregan@gmail.com if you don't mind letting me know. Thanks so much.

Enjoy your weekend.
