New Weekly Feature: The Preppy Picks

A long time ago, I said that I wanted to compile a list of all of my favorite things preppy. I have come to the realization that the list is never ending and therefore can never really be written. The truth is, I'm falling in love with new things every day, so why not indulge myself (and all of you) every week?

Which brings me to my new weekly feature: The Preppy Picks!

Each week, I will select all of my new (and sometimes classic) favorite finds. If you sell a preppy product and want it featured here, speak up! Email me at jgiwc.tag@gmail.com with photos and purchasing info. BONUS! If you send me a sample of one of your preppy products, I will photograph myself wearing it or using it and will post it on here. What better way to get free exposure? This is priceless PR, people! My audience continues to grow everyday.

Without further ado, here are the very first Preppy Picks!

I recently discovered that one of my favorite blogs, The Preppy Princess, also has an online shop by the same name. I'm just DYING for these hand towels.



My NYC apartment is decorated to resemble a Hamptons beach house. I can't think of anything better to put in my bathroom! BONUS! At checkout, you have the option to donate 5% of your order total to one of two charities. Preppy Princess, you are a charm! Please check out her store at http://preppyprincess.com for aprons, belts, note cards, and more!


My parents recently returned from a getaway to Martha's Vineyard. They got me a beautiful pair of sterling silver lobster earrings from a wonderful jewelry shop called CB Stark. I tried to find a photo of them on their website to show you all, but unfortunately these are not featured online. I did, however, find this wonderful charm.



I've never seen anything like this tiny inkwell. It's the perfect edition to this writer's charm collection. If you're not lucky enough to be able to shop at one of their locations in MV, you can check out the entire collection at www.cbstark.com.


Despite what Sesame Street says, cookies are not a sometimes food for me. They are an everyday necessity. Imagine my excitement when I stumbled across Maine Cakes and Cookies.


I would love to give these as party favors at my next soiree!


The 'Perfect Pair' cookies really are the perfect wedding favor!

For a countless selection of the cutest custom cookies, please visit http://www.mainecakesandcookies.com/custom_cookies.htm.


I'm taking a three day weekend so I will be back on Monday with lots of fun photos from AEG's trip.

Have a wonderful weekend, readers!
