Girlfriends

I have a love hate relationship with the upcoming holiday, I love that it's an excuse to have date night, wear pink, and exchange gifts with the hubs, but I hate that not all feel welcome to participate in the holiday. That said, today is all about girlfriends, including a look perfect for a girls' night out! ;)

I'm a social girl, but I keep a small group of close girlfriends. I've always believed that friends are the family you make along the way, and the girls who can both celebrate with me and call me out on my crap are the ones I cherish the most. Community is important and we all need close girlfriends, so don't ever let yourself think otherwise.

While we don't often think of Valentine's in this way, it's the perfect opportunity to pop some bubbly and hang with your girls! You can keep it chill with a chick flick and ice cream (there is never anything wrong with that combo), or you can have a girls' night out on the town! If you're in a relationship, save the evening for your man, and have a day date with your bestie. There is no need for anyone to not enjoy a day meant for flowers & chocolate :)

In this spirit, I've teamed up with Flowers for Dreams, to give one lucky winner a free bouquet to send to a friend on Valentine's Day!!

Flowers for Dreams specializes in locally crafted floral bouquets at just $35 with free delivery in the Chicago area. But it gets better, each month Flowers for Dreams selects one local charity to support through their business. This month a portion of all orders go to our girls at Bright Pink. When Flowers for Dreams contacted me with all of this info, I knew this was a match made in heaven, and am so excited to share it with you today!

To enter thie giveaway simply use the app at the bottom of this post. The winner will be announced on Wednesday Morning, but just in case you don't win you can use code "GLITTERARY1" for a 10% discount on your order.

If you entered Glitterary's Holiday giveaways look for your name below. I will be contacting each winner individually to discuss how you will receive your prizes, so make sure to check your emails this evening...

Also, a special announcement:

Tomorrow, I'll be hosting an exciting event with Lululemon, so clear your calendars from 5-7pm and head to their Halstad location. This is a top secret event, and unfortunately, due to the nature of the surprise, that's all I can share until tomorrow morning, but trust me, this is one event you won't want to miss.

So here's the skinny, we've been stressing over what to post today... like a lot! So much so that we froze up and couldn't pick. The truth is we have so much great content this holiday season that we really want to make sure each get's the proper attention it's due. In the grand scheme of things, this isn't a bad problem to have, so we've come up with a solution: Holiday Week Round Two! I know, kind of cheesy, and trust us, very unexpected, but rather than picking amongst all of our good options and squeezing one more post into the end of this week, we've decided to extend our holiday fun and keep the celebration going.

Starting Monday you can expect more giveaway, style posts, and collaborations, but first we want to know what your favorite part of this week was. It's our first holiday week, and we'd like to think we've done well so far, but we also want to make sure next year is even better! So give us your feedback, we always love hearing from you!

Happy weekend!

xoxo, D+S
