Socialite Stocking Stuffers

Dear Santa,

I’ve been a very good girl this year. I know because I’ve developed excellent karma. All I want for Christmas is the socialite life and the accessories to go with it. If you are stumped as to what to put in my stocking, look no further.

1. Cute couture key chains add a bit of socialite flare to the fancy items your carry around with you each day. They fit perfectly in your stocking or can be tied to a ribbon wrapping a larger gift to make the presentation even more festive. This adorable holiday penguin is from Coach.

2. No socialite’s stocking is complete without a small bottle of champagne to make mimosas on Christmas morning.

3. The winter months can make your skin very dry. I don’t know how I’d get through the winter without Vaseline.  Bravo’s Mad Fashion star Chris March, collaborated with Vaseline to create the Swarovski Crystal Encrusted Vaseline Jar. Not only is this the best cure for dry lips and hands, the jar is also a great decoration.

4. A socialite’s stocking should always have a little something from Tiffany’s, Harry Winston, and/or Cartier that sparkles likes the star on top of the tree.

5. Fun electronics covers always make great stocking stuffers. I’m particularly obsessed with this kate spade iPhone cover.

Thank you Santa! Wishing you a Couture Christmas and all the socialite greatness 2012 has to offer!!

Great Minds Think Alike

On Twitter, I have met many an Aspiring Socialite. I’ve connected with people from all over the world who share and love my socialite dream. Together, we support each other by sharing incite, inspiration, and of course fashion.

One of my London counterparts, Samantha Leason a.k.a @CitySocialiteXO just came out with a line of luxury travel wear called City Socialite that’s warm, comfortable, and trendy.  She came up with the idea when she was on a long flight.  The cold air conditioning made her wish she’d had warmer more comfortable clothes with her.  City Socialite is a UK brand that will soon be available worldwide once the website is complete.  Best of luck Sammy!  I hope I can someday visit you on my future first trip to London. I’ve always wanted to go there and the thought of meeting the “London me” makes it even more appealing.

Do You Have “White Girl Problems?”


What began as the awesomely honest Twitter account, @whitegrlproblem, documenting the perils of a privileged existence, is now the memoir of the one and only Babe Walker.  I really wanted to interview Babe for this post, but I saw on her Twitter that she was tired of doing interviews and tired of being tired all morning so I left her alone to rest and do hot yoga.  Having the same fashionable, yet stressful anxiety issues as Babe, I totally understand where she’s coming from.  I mean, no one understands the inner workings of Lauren Conrad like us or the horror of people putting jeans in the dryer.  Even in today’s economy, these can be serious issues.

Babe Walker is basically me only with a trust fund and a memoir.   I guess a blog is kind of like a memoir though.  Like Steve Jobs or Elizabeth Taylor, I would like to leave behind a legacy someday.  Perhaps, writing a memoir, being in a movie, or inventing something is how I can be legendary?  I’m not quite sure if people will remember me as a dreamer or a drama queen, but I won’t be there so I don’t really care.  I know this wasn’t much of a book review because in most book reviews people actually tell you what the book is about.  However, for me, this book was a spiritual experience.  One you too can experience for yourself by reading an excerpt on BabeWalker.com and/or pre-ordering it on Amazon.  It’s like a shaman for socialites in book form.  OMGucci I’m so inspired right now!

The Best Quotes from White Girl Problems:

“OMGivenchy, I’m a lawyer.”

“Turns our rush hour traffic is a real thing.  I thought it was an urban legend.”

“Every job I’ve had is the worst job I’ve ever had.”

“I always sketch out a look before I try it on.  You can’t trust mirrors.”

“I decided that with everyone being out of the office for lunch, this would be a good time to meditate.”
