Rockett St. George — Giveaway-A-Day 11/17


Find the winner for yesterday's Giveaway at the bottom of this post.
____________

For today's Giveaway, the oh so fabulous shop featuring British-based design — Rockett St. George — is sending the lucky winner A 2007 LOTUS DIARY AND A TRAVELLERS JOURNAL!!!





That's right. The
beautiful Lotus 2007 Diary with fabulous sparkly and textured cover AND the perfectly touchable take anywhere leather Travellers Journal could be yours. Should you share? Probably. But I won't tell if you can't stand to part with either. Read more details about the lovely Lotus Diary here, and the Travellers Journal here.

Not that long ago, I explored the wares of Rockett St George and was so impressed I posted about them here. The collection is outstanding — put together with a really good eye. The company is run by two mothers and the photography is fantastic. Everything looks so luxe.

Here are some of my very faves at Rockett St George:

Love the patterns and colors of the Sophia Afxentiou accessory bags. Change purses, cosmetic bags, lots of shapes and sizes.


Pearl Glass Storage Jars in four colors. So pretty — even empty.


Cream Ballet wrap for your princess looks so, so cozy.


Story Deli 10-year old balsamic vinegar. Totally aware that I'm not a gourmet and do not deserve to cook with anything this good — but I should own this just for the packaging.


More luxe than my full-of-kids-house can handle right now, but I'm daydreaming about the Large Pale Aubergine Silk Velvet Devore Cushion.


I show more faves on my earlier post.


You know you're drooling, go check out their wares. Wouldn't your sister/mom/friend/coworker/hubbie love opening something from Rockett St George this Christmas? Yes. And they'll be extra impressed when you tell them it was imported.

Happily for those of us spending in dollars and not pounds, they even have a handy currency converter (just click the American flag in the top right corner). And take advantage of beautiful design at excellent prices: Don't miss the under $40 section.

Thank you, Rockett St. George!

Of course you deserve the balsamic - everyone does, even if they don't cook. Just drizzle it over salad, peaches, melon, tomatoes, ice cream, dip bread into it -- if it's the thick, sweet stuff it'll taste good with just about anything.
