It is hard to believe that it was just two years ago that I sat in bed reading blogs. I stumbled upon my first via Google and immediately got sucked in to this wonderful world! After about a month of reading I started contemplating starting my own. So, on March 31st, 2008 I took the plunge and Monograms and Manicures was born.... I will continue reminiscing on my actual anniversary so that we can CELEBRATE now! 

I thought long and hard about the perfect giveaway prize and after reviewing some posts, consulting friends and knowing that Spring was indeed in the air I decided a Lilly Pulitzer Roslyn skirt was the perfect fit! 

Now, I do not know about you, but I sure LOVE great fitting and well made clothing. The Lilly Pulitzer Roslyn is my new go-to skirt. It is the perfect length AND the perfect fit (a hard combination to come by).
I simply ADORE the prints and the weight of the fabric too. I have worn several of mine with long sleeve white tops in India and have also tucked in a polo and thrown a Tory Burch Simone over for a more tailored look. You cannot go wrong with a Roslyn and they are certainly a staple in my wardrobe!

I'd love to see a post about your life as a college prepster :-)

What a wonderful giveaway! I would love to see a post on your favorite lilly piece you've ever owned or your all time favorite lilly print.
Wow! This has to be the best giveaway ever! I was just thinking not long ago that I miss your art history posts that you once did. I'd love to read those now and again. Or fashion faux pas. I mean, not everyone should be wearing leggings and skinny jeans. Different styles flatter differnt body shapes. Maybe do this but with current Lilly styles? I know I have the worst time finding Lilly dresses to fit my overly "blessed" chest.
Wow, two years in blogland. Congratulations!!!
You've shared fashion, decorating, tips for hosting parties, and lots of Lilly. I would love to see what are some staples in your make-up bag.
Congrats on your blogiversary! :) Your blog is a favorite of mine!
Suggestion for the future: I'd LOVE to hear some "rules" for preppy style. Example: WHEN can you start wearing bright (summery) Lily Pulitzer patterns, etc. :)
Thanks for hosting such a great giveaway!

Congrats! How about a typical day?
Morning to Night, cooking, working, JLD, or whatever!
I am a fb fan too!
love these skirts! Thank God I got my dress in the mail today!:)
Future post idea...your love and compassion for the military. I know this blog tends to be about preppy stuff but, being a daugher of an Airborn Ranger-Retired Col. myself - I would love to hear just why you have such compassion? Alos, whether you would ever considering marrying a military man?
Love the giveaway!! I'd like to see a post about your job -- it sounds so interesting, but you never say much about it!!
Happy Happy Hopsy! Love M&M, it's one of my top 5 MUST reads if the day is frantic and I have to decide what to read and what to skip.
I'd love to hear how your parents met! Everyone loves a good love story! And maybe your fav's in the Twin Cities... have to make sure that I am in the know on all your fav's!
oooh, PS, I'm a fb fan, was one of the first 10 or so :)

Happy Blogersery!!! I love your blog... I would love to see you do a post on a behind the scenes look at working at a Lilly store!
Happy 2nd yr! Would love to see a post soon from your mom and how she is doing... (I lost her link after your last trip to India)...and perhaps a post about combining beautfiul Indian dress with Lilly...does it work?!Have a friend from Goa, India who just sent me a pretty blue sequined paisley tunic, but it is so delicate I am afraid to use it!
Just had my first Lilly talk with my granddaughter( I am a young grandmom!!) who is turning 14 next week. She revealed to me she is a Lilly lover!! I was so blessed... now to peruse the racks for something special for a tall, lanky, very feminine newly 14 yr old! She grew so much this yr..got very tall..that she doesnt have anything that fits! Would love to win this for my precious Lilly teen princess!

Happy 2 year anniversary! What about a post on preppy hair? I'm growing my hair out and trying to do fun things with it, and I'm currently quite obsessed with headbands! All of mine are currently narrow, but I'm on the lookout for a nice wide one in a fun, girly print. :)

I am a fan of Monograms and Manicures on facebook.
Hopsy, Happy Anniversary! I have been following your blog for just over a year now and love it.
I would love to hear about the wonderful news you had tweeted about this past week.
Great blog and I love reading!!
... I would love to hear about your high school years - what were you like?
Happy Anniversary!
I would love to hear about you and your mom. Maybe a week dedicated to your mom around Mother's Day. Your favorite place you traveled together, your favorite gift she bought you, what you both love to do together etc. It would be great to read 7 days about your relationship and life with your mother. Let's celebrate that!
Congratulations!
I would really love one week/7 posts dedicated to you and your love for your mother. (maybe around Mother's Day) What you love to do together, favorite place you traveled, most cherished gift she has given you, what you have learned from her etc. This would be a wonderful way to celebrate your blog as well.
(I may have had numerous posts go through and I am sorry - my digital system is going crazy today)
Happy anniversary! I would love to see a post about your adventures around the world (favorite locations, most exotic vacations). You have lived in and traveled to many exciting places. Please share! Also, I love it when you include recipes or party suggestions/pics. You are a fabulous hostess. :)

Hi Hopsy! I love reading your blog and getting ideas about decorating, shopping, cooking, and traveling--and Lilly, of course!

Happy Anniversary!! I am very new to blogging and have REALLY enjoyed reading yours! I love reading about your events and seeing pictures of how you decorate for those events. But I would love to hear more about India! It's such a beautiful and inspiring place - I have always wanted to travel there! Thanks for sharing your ideas!
Hopsy, I'm one of your 'older' readers and you are one of the first I read every morning. I also love your mothers blog as well.
I'd like for you to blog about how you keep your 'focus' on preppy/wasp-y syle in a city/state that is known for 'all-glamour-all the time.' Are you ever tempted to stray away from the preppy look?
I love the classics and my wardrobe consists mostly of Brooks Brothers, Talbots, and Lilly as well as pieces of Neiman's. But I find when I visit Texas I always feel very frumpy. Do you experience this? I think that's the main thing I've always wondered...I really hope you do a post on this!
Happy almost anniversary!! I would love to hear more about your childhood and all the interesting places you lived :)
I am also a Facebook Fan!
Great blog! I have been following for a few months now. I would love some tips on packing for travel, especially for longer trips with limited suitcase capabilties.

Trying something new is always fun, and I'm sure a change would be great in the new season!
Love the blog :)

Another thing I'm interested in is how you handled the weather in Minnesota. I just moved from Minneapolis (where I was an advisor for the Pi Beta Phi's) to Columbus, OH and I think it's amazing that you went to the University of MN. That cold weather must have been dreadful for a lady with such great Lilly style.

Happy Anniversary! I love the blog, esp as a fellow kappa. Hmmm some topics I'd love to see for future posts-your go to pieces for special occasions and fave pieces from your closet, ooh maybe the closet itself, as I imagine it is fab!
Congratulations on your anniversary! What a tremendous accomplishment and marked celebration. I feel so lucky to have been sharing in your journey and to partake in your delightful posts everyday. What I would LOVE to see more of on Monograms and Manicures are occasional personal tips from you about how you maintain positivity, grace, health, and beauty in your everyday life. It could be mental or physical tips and best practices from your lifestyle. I'm a new Monograms and Manicures Facebook fan now, so I'll post this there too! xxoo, and congrats again!!
Oh such fun!! Ok, I love all of your posts, but I would so love to learn more about your upbringing. What was little Hopsy like, pics of your little preppy self. I love reading your mother's blog too and I can only imagine you must have some really interesting childhood stories or traditions to share.
I'm a Facebook fan too!! Congrats again on two years!!
I am a reader of only two weeks...and I'm already hooked! I'm afraid my boss is going to peak over my shoulder while I'm checking out your fun posts!
I graduated from school nearly a year ago (eek!), and am living at home. I've found that while I'm saving money to move out, there are still a few "necessary luxuries," that help me get through my day.
I would love a post about your necessary luxuries, your must-haves regardless of the situation!
Thanks for a fun fun blog and for yet another distraction at work!
Happy Blog Anniversary! Cheers! I wish you many more successful blogging years!
I would love to read more about your travels and about India. I always enjoy reading about your fashion picks and look forward to more blogs about Lilly, fashion, accessories & home decor. You have FABULOUS taste and never disappoint! So glad I found your blog!

Happy Blog-Anniversary. You seem like such a giving and generous person, especially with this giveaway. I must say the panda bear print is one of my favorites. I think it would be interesting to read about how you come up with party ideas and where you get your recipes; do you make them up or do you use a cookbook, if so what are your favs?
Love the skirt... I would love to see more anout where you shop in Dallas and do you shop in surrounding areas...Frisco,Plano???
