SAG Gifting Suites

Lisa's Chic Boutique was honored to have been asked personally by Nancee Borgnine to participate in the SAG Gifting Suites event 2011. Her father Ernest Borgnine was honored with SAG's "Life Time Achievement" award that evening too. Over the years I've participated in many celebrity gift basket events in the past which were awesome but this was my first event where I actually had an intimate conversation with each celebrity to talk about my designs and what an amazing experience it was! My Trinket Boxes, Swarovski Crystal Pens and Tutu Hair Bow Holders graced the hands of over 50 celebrities! Please check out all the photos from the event on my Lisa's Chic Boutique's Facebook Page.

Charity Fashion & Music Show

My Rockin Cigar Box Purses were featured in a Fashion Show in November at the "King King Club" held in Hollywood. The "Charity Fashion & Music Show" for " Beyond The Bell Branch" a charity that specializes in after school for kids (art, music, dance, drama, tutors & enrichment programs) all proceeds from the Fashion show went to this charity. It was an awesome event and was so exciting to see my purses grace the shoulders of some super hip and funky models. The designer Danielle Leigh Davis -"Inslisted for Love" clothes were so fresh & hip and collaborated so well with my purses. Hope to do more in the future. A select few cigar box purses that were featured in the show will be available to purchase at http://www.lisaschicboutique.com/category/Cigar-Box-Purses/c46 .

Do you Twitter, Facebook or Linkedin?

So what's new with Lisa's Chic Boutique? I haven't updated my blog in awhile, something I really need to work on. There are so many aspects to running your own business and trying to juggle it all especially with children. In the world of social media networking the most popular ones being Facebook,Twitter, & Linkedin , it may seem like a lot to digest and keep up with, but the success of your business depends on it. I remember when it used to be just the Yellow pages, what's that? Besides creating new Cigar Box Purses, feather headbands,bottle cap jewelry,"Stinky Pinky" clothes,mirrors and so much more. I now have to keep up with all my networking venues I'm a part of and have found I have generated so much more business, made new friends and now keeping in touch with family in 2 other states all through Facebook & Twitter.

I came across a Realtors blog and loved how he summed up all 3 media networks, "Facebook has become the online cocktail party. Great way to agents and consumers to connect, very light touching, not heavy selling,” said Calzadilla. “LinkedIn has become the online chamber of commerce, professional, a little more rules when you connect. Twitter is like riding the bus and hearing someone talk about real estate and can say, hey, I’m an agent and I can help you sell that home.”
Well I have to go and "Tweet" away and check my Facebook "Wall" and join Linkedin.

Twilight Giveaway & DVD Release

Mark your calendars Twilighters!!! On March 21st you'll be able to own your own special copy of "Twilight" on DVD. I use the word special because the dvd is going to be packed with a tons of cool features:

Among the features:

*Audio Commentary by director Catherine Hardwicke, and stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.
*Five Extended Scenes with introductions by the director
*Five Deleted Scenes with introductions by the director
*Three Music Videos from Muse, Paramore and Linkin Park
* The Adventure Begins: The Journey from Page to Screen- A seven-part documentary
*Comic-Con Phenomenon featurette

That release of the DVD falls on a Saturday which is very odd because all other film DVD's come out on Tuesdays according to the studio, the Saturday date was selected “to encourage midnight release parties for fans across the nation.”
So to celebrate this exciting occassion for those dedicated Twilight fans a
"Twilight Giveaway" will be hosted by www.bookroomreviews.com and www.momonthrandom.com between March 16-30 to giveaway some really cool "Twilight" products from several cool websites that specialize in "Twilight" inspired memorabilia to one lucky winner! Good luck!

Political Fashion For The Young

The 2008 Election "Obama Vs. McCain" tshirt wars are on. I've found that there are just as many Political humor apparel for adults as there are for kids,babies and even pets! I came across this website www.cafepress.com that had a huge selection of "Obama" and "McCain" tshirts for kids. Is it a good thing to mix kids and politics? I don't know, but I would have no problem putting one on my strong headed, independent 2 year old daughter. Make sure you register to VOTE!

Embrace Earth Day!

Earth Day is on April 22nd and is a special day to learn about and take care of our planet.So I thought some Eco-friendly fashion for the kids would be fun! I searched the net for some really cool "Organic" kids clothing sites and thought I should share the information.
www.happyhippie.com has a great variety of everything from Organic Kids Clothing, Eco-Friendly Toys, Organic Baby Bedding, Eco-friendly diapers, Natural Baby Care,and Natural Baby Gifts. Another one that is a little more on the Trendy side is a site called www.bellydancebaby.com . They have some really cool Eco-friendly skull and peace sign tee's for kids and much more...

Art By Shano

I came across the coolest Art work on the internet and had to share with ya all! It's "Art By Shano". The coolest,brightest,whimsical DIVA art work. Shano has a great Gallery of Art to choose from and believe it or not they are reasonable prices too. Another cool thing is you can choose from her art work (excluding originals) and have them printed on "Liquor Hip Flasks", Notecards, mousepads and so much more...

TU TU Cute!

I recently planned a Princess themed party for my 1 year old daughter Summer Rae. First and most importantly I was to find the perfect Princess out fit. Of course, me being the artsy Diva that I am, it had to have a splash of Princess meets Punk. So I set out surfing the internet for a bright pink TUTU. I finally found my match at this really cute Boutique website named FabbyGabby.com . I also found a cute onsie with the wording Princess on it. Well of course I had to add a touch of my crystal bling to her onsie and pink converse which brought out the Punk side of it. It really turned out soooooo Babe! It was the Princess Party I never had! Oops, did I just say that, I mean her Dream Princess Party...

Shop OnLine Safely This Season Divas

  The time of Season has come to "Shop "Til Ya Drop" for the Holidays Diva's! Consumers will spend $21.6 billion shopping online this holiday season, according to JupiterMedia, an online research company. Some pointers for the Saavy Diva:
  
  
  
• Shop only at reputable sites. If an online merchant is new to you, research the company. Beware of merchants with bad reviews.
  
• Use only one credit card, with a low credit limit, for all your online purchases. That way it's easy to see if there is a problem since you'll know exactly for what and where the card was used.
• Order early enough so that you avoid paying considerably steeper prices for express delivery.


• Print out and save records of all your online orders. Keep the product description, price, online receipt, order number and customer service number. Save any e-mails the company sends you for purchase verification.
