One of the best parts of BlissDom is the swag friendships you make. It would be an amazing experience even without the goodies – no really!!

This year the goodies started before we even left for the airport – Blissdom’s main sponsor, ConAgra, sent us a package with fun items for those we left at home – coupons for lots of free food (including Blue Bunny Ice Cream – YUM!), popcorn with a big bowl to serve it in, and one of Hallmark‘s fun musical cards – mine played the chicken dance…over and over and over…

Once again, our  bags at BlissDom came from Land’s End – thes have to be the most durable, handy bags on the planet – I use mine for everything!! Inside was a treasure trove of treats – a beautiful necklace from Lisa Leonard and The Vintage Pearl, dogtags and labels from Mabel’s Labels, makeup from covergirl, candy, yummy new socks, chips, gift certificates, a Harry Connick CD…we were definitely spoiled.

I do have a few goodies for you too – courtesy of my friends at The Hip Hostess and Lee Jeans – Lee has provided me with several of their “Curvy” (read:plus size) jeans to try and I love them! They are the best fitting jeans I have tried in a long time. Debbie at The Hip Hostess is as gracious (and Hip!) as the name of her Aprons implies – I own at least 4 of her gorgeous aprons, and it’s easy to see why -

This one is  called “Melon Splash” – perfect for spring- and it’s even cuter in person!

So, my lucky chickies, Lee is offering you 20% off any order til February 28th at Lee.com by using the code BLISS20 – make sure you try the fit finder too to determine the right style and fit for your shape!

And The Hip Hostess is offering 15% off by using the promo code GETHIP at checkout – make sure you check out the Cherries print - it looks fabulous over jeans and a cute tee!!
