After five full magnificiant day's in sunny CA Im slowly coming down off my Affarie at Tiffany's high!
Once again, Kim Caldwell has hosted another gorgeous and extradoinary event!
I've attended four of Kim's event's and to date....I think this one was my personal fav.
The event was a glamour girls dream!!!
Kim did not spare one detail!
She showered and pampered us with gifts galore!!!
The best part of attending events is the opportunity to see your friends again and forming new friendships.
My weekend kicked-off with hanging with my close peeps and hitting the LA shops.
My darling friend Christine Rose Elle was our shopping hosting.
Showing us ladies the best shops!
LOVED Eleanor Jean!!!
Sherry, Christine, Tiffany,Me, Jessi
Thursday I spent half the day with these wonderful lovely friends shopping the L.A. garment district and eating at the gourmet yummy Bottega Louie restaurant.
(Andrea,Me,Karla,Lori,Hope)
Karla basking in ribbon heaven!!
Tiff and I hanging on the street corner.
I can't help but smirk when I see this photo. The Lou Reed song "Take a walk on the wild side" starts playing in my head.
Thursday evening was the main kick off to the event.
Terry Frias & Cheryl Stoneham did it up BIG TIME hosting the Tiffany Cocktail Pre-Party.
Pink Champagne & Cupcakes!!!
Yummy!!!

This is how mine turned out.
Sweet!

What a perfect opportunity for fun pictures and.......
PILLOW FIGHTS!!!!
One evening a group of us girls headed to Manhattan Beach for dinner by the water.
Beautiful views!
Sunday was all about SHOPPING!!!
One of the hightlights of the weekend is the Flea Market trip.
The girls on the bus go SHOP SHOP SHOP!

Guess who's working a deal!
Holly & Christine
Kecia and her creepy life size doll. hee! hee!
Adorable Tricia and her Vintage Bliss trailer.
Last stop.....Vignettes!
She shop was one big Tiffany display!
Gorgeous!!!
Vignettes was an eye full! Stunning beauty each and every corner.
After a long day of shopping we headed back to the hotel to the dreadful chore of packing. :(
That's when the looming feeling of having to say goodbye to your dearest girlfriends start to take over.
I had the BEST weekend ever and was sad to see it to end.
More good times, memories, pretty projects, gifts & treasures were all going home back to GA with me.
Thank you Kim for going above and beyond once again for us ladies.
Im already looking forward to next years!
One last note.....
Majority of the stunning photos seen here in this post were shot from the photographer extraordinaire Tiffany Kirchner Dixon.
Thanks Tiff for capturing our amazing weekend together so beautifully!
Till next year!!

Hi Jennifer~
It's been quite awhile since I've dropped by your blog and this is the first time I've left a comment too. Your trip to California looks amazing, and quite delicious too! I was once a Cali girl many years ago and know how beautiful it is! Anyway, love all the pics and will be better at visiting your beautiful blog.
