I have been floored time and again by the unbelievable encouragement and support I've received from all of you. I figured that for this birthday, it would be appropriate for me to give a gift instead of the other way around. I will be giving away one Lilly Pulitzer Note Card Book in Dessert Tort and one Lilly Pulitzer Wink Eau De Parfum .
To enter this giveaway, please leave a comment here telling me at least one of the following:
- how you found JGIWC
- your favorite JGIWC post
- what you'd like to see in JGIWC in the future
I will not be blogging or Tweeting next week as I expect little to no BlackBerry reception on my adventure. I will draw a winner on Sunday, April 4. I wish all of you a very Happy Passover and/or Easter!
Hey Darlin' - I'm pretty sure I found you through the Landlocked Mermaid. And I'm glad I did! I I love your Friday Five posts. But I can't call them my favorites. I just really enjoy your gift with the pen. You have a wonderful gift for written expression. Have a great trip!! Hugs! xoxo
ReplyDeletehi sweetie pie! i am pretty sure i found jgiwc through essential luxuries (jean's blog)! you two are both fabulous writers :)

Happy Birthday! I can't remember how I found your blog, it was definitely through some other preppy bloggers, maybe a giveaway a long time ago. As for favorite post, can't say there is one in particular, but I really do enjoy your "Friday Five" posts...I look forward to them! Enjoy your Birthday!!
ReplyDeleteYou're blog is so cute... I just found it a couple of days ago while browsing someone's blog. I love it already!!!
ReplyDeleteHey! I think I will answer two ;) just for fun...
ReplyDeleteI found you somehow the first day I discovered blogger...it was either through Sam's blog, or just yours alone in the search engine...but the both of you were the first blogs I ever read (and my favorites!)...
You have SO many favorite posts...but I think my favorite was for your 25th birthday. I knew how big of a deal it is, and how stressful it was, and I was so thrilled it turned out to be perfect for you. You deserved it...and not only did you get one party, but MANY :)
I love you...have a great trip ;)
* how you found JGIWC: Did you email me and tell me you started it? I can't remember!
ReplyDelete* your favorite JGIWC post: any post that mentions me.
* what you'd like to see in JGIWC in the future: more of me.
HAHAHA! Just kidding.... have a fab cruise!
Have so much fun on your vacation! I found you through a friends blog (red30067) and have been following your for a year and a half. I love your whats in my bag posts and would love to see more of these in the future!
ReplyDeleteYaaay!!! I found you through another blogger... I believe LegallyHeidi at Life in Pink? Maybe?
ReplyDeleteHave an awesome trip!!
I honestly do not remember how I found your blog but I am sure glad I did. I read each post and enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI remember a post that you did in late 2008 regarding your gift picks. I always like to see what others would like to receive or what they will be giving as gifts.
I hope that your trip is full of fun but also relaxing.
Such a great giveaway. I found you through "Etiquette with Miss Janice's" blog.
ReplyDeleteI've been reading so long that I can't recall where I first found you! I love all of your posts which discuss the strong impact Kappa has on your life; I know that Phi Mu has been a similarly life-changing experience for me.
ReplyDeleteHave a great trip, doll.

Celebration is in store! Everyone loves your blog, and rightfully so!
ReplyDeleteI believe I came across JGIWC while bouncing around facebook and saw a link you had posted... pretty sure it was quite some time ago. I of course love anything Kappa related and hearing about your incredible life! As far as what I'd like to see in the future... keep doing what you do! You are gonna make it big one day, girl!
yay for 2 years! I found you through your comments left on other posts when I started blogging
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! I'd like to see more fashion posts since you have such great style. Maybe some basic staples every woman should own? Or save/splurge items- like save on white tees but splurge on flats. Stuff like that :)
ReplyDeletecant remember how i found it but cant remember a time not reading it!
ReplyDeletei love all your posts, especially when you talk about new fashion picks, whats in your closet, what you're buying, whats in your purse lately...
doesnt matter what you write -- just keep writing!
I found you from another blog..can't remember which one.
ReplyDeleteI like reading about your beauty tips and the new (or old and favorite) products you are using.
Keep it coming, dont care what it is!
hope you had a great trip!
I'm not sure how I found your blog. I just stumbled across it. I had never heard the term "wasp" before I started following this blog.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite post thus far was:
25 Lessons I Learned Upon Turning 25
I found your blog browsing other blogs!!! I love it:)
ReplyDeleteI found your blog through the preppy princess's blog and have been addicted ever since! You have such a great sense of style, in fashion and writing! Keep the great posts coming and enjoy your vacation!
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine sent me the link to your blog because she thought I would appreciate. She thought I would enjoy reading about your purchases, as I, too, am a Jewish girl in wasp's clothing!
ReplyDelete1) my BEST FRIEND showed it to me and we followed you on our joint blog
ReplyDelete2) my favorite post was when you shouted-out our First Date :) no, in all seriousness, your 25 Lessons I Learned Upon Turning 25 -- I turned 25 a few weeks before you and literally printed out the handwritten lessons and its on the wall of my office
3) I can't wait to hear about your experiences with whatever committee you're placed on in Junior League, and all the lovie dovie details whenever you meet That Guy that I know is out there for you!!
HAVE FUN on the cruise baby xoxo
hi honey!!
ReplyDeleteI stumbled upon your blog after hearing about it from one of our Kappas - glad I did, it's been fabulous getting to know you - hope to see you soon!
K love,
Courtney
Happy Blog BDay. I am a follower and have been for a while and I have no idea how I found you. The post "Closed Today", was one many of us could relate to and I so felt for you.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 2 fabulous years!
ReplyDeleteI found JGIWC on a friends "blogroll" and started reading awhile ago...you even inspired me to start writing my own blog because yours is just so darn good!
My favorite post is "What is in JGIWC's purse?" It was fun too see I'm not the only person who carries a dust bag with them!
In the future, I'd just like to see you continue to be great!
Happy Blog B'day!
ReplyDeleteGingersnap's blog roll is how I found JGIWC. As a fellow kappa, I'd love to hear more about your adventures, plus I love to hear about your fabulous finds.
hey love =)
ReplyDeleteI first found JGIWC, ironically, on the Metro North coming home from the city. I was googling advice on spray tanning and found your ye olde post on the subject. And what luck I had discovering the wonderful blog that is JGIWC. I have many favorite posts but I'd have to go with your recent favorite memories that your blog has brought to you. I thought it was sweet and made me happy for you! In the future, on JGIWC, I'd like to see more of everything you've ever blogged about. JGIWC couldn't be better. More blogging on classic prep fashion would make me a happy lady though.
Love,
Cairee
Dear JGIWC,
ReplyDeleteWe love the post"A Trip Down Memory Lane." More like this would be appreciated! We found you on The Company She Keeps.
Please enter us in the giveaway!
thanks! xoxox
I found your blog multiple times by jumping from blog to blog, and just started following it (because I just realized how to work all this blogging stuff!) I love hearing about your adventures in NYC and seeing what your favorite style finds are!
ReplyDeleteI think I found you through Hopsy's Monograms and Manicures, but so many of my other favorite blogs have you on their blog roll as well! Congratulations on the landmark and have a great cruise! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary to you! I found you thru the pink and green channel of Monograms and Manicures! I do enjoy your Friday Five posts --- I look forward to them!
ReplyDeletehey there! happy anniversary to you! I totally enjoy reading your blog! I found you through kappaprep, and one of my favorite posts you did was about finding yourself. You ask so many of the same questions I did of myself about life, love, career, etc.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful trip, girlie! Can't wait to read about your adventures! (I hope you meet a (good) pirate that steals your heart away!
Oh how fun! I found out about your blog from my sister, who is a big fan!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting!
I love your blog! I found it a few months ago while browsing preppy blogs. I can't say that I have a favorite post--they are all good! Congrats on 2 years!
ReplyDeletei found jgwic almost two years when i was interning in new york for the summer. i was at a gallery a few blocks from lilly and i BELIEVE i was googling the new lilly store. i was going to the hamptons for a art fair and i needed a dress!
ReplyDeleteanyway, my favorite posts might be the ones about your family or about the trials of finding love and such. i'd probably say to just keep that coming for the future! :) thanks lady! great blog.
Loved your post on MYami...your parents should feel wonderful for giving you such a great childhood! I found you via a link on another blog. I would love to see a weekly post on your favorite spots in NYC. Congratulations on your blog!!!
ReplyDeleteHello JGIWC!
ReplyDeleteI could not resist your giveaway. I have been an occasional reader for sometime. Today I hoped on over from Manicures and Monograms when she wished you a happy blog birthday. So after many times being an occasional reader, decided to become a regular reader.
Thanks for the chance to win your giveaway and I would like to invite you to red my blog...Its called Powderpuffs N Pearls.
Hope to hear from you soon!

I found you through the pink tutu :)
ReplyDeletehave a great trip!
I love all of the lists that you make. I'd like to see more of those.
ReplyDeleteCan't remember how I came across your blog. I think I was just browsing and stumbled upon it.
Hi JGIWC!!
ReplyDeleteI found your blog about a year ago when I first discovered the world of blogging, I think I may have found you through Hopsy's blog, and I was an instant fan and follower of yours.
I can't think of a favorite post but I am really enjoying the Friday Five post you're doing,
I'd like to see some "A day in the life posts" a lot of bloggers have been doing them and I think they're so fun!
Happy Blog Anniversary. I really don't remember which blog I was reading, but the title certainly grabbed my attention and have been reading it daily for quite a while. Loved your post when you found out what a good business man your dad is.
ReplyDeleteHope you're enjoying your sea cruise. You've got it all, JGIWC.
Best wishes,
bg
Hey! I found your blog randomly while looking at another blog ..can't remember exact details. I would love to hear more about your favorite restaurants in the city. Also, if you could recommend fun things that you like to do in the city that would be great too! Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are back from your trip and had a good time!
ReplyDeleteWhile I love all your posts, I think that "It's up to you, New York, New York" is one of my favorite!
Anytime you reflect on living in the best city in the world (and all the trial and tribulations that comes with it) I'm reminded of why I love this place so much (even though it does not always make sense to).
Also, all posts that include pictures are good. :)
Love your blog! I found your blog when I searched for Lilly Pulitzer Preppy on Google. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope I'm not too late!!! I found your blog a while ago through monograms & manicures (kappaprep) ... My favorite posts are your "lists" and I look forward to a post about your cruise!
