It's Official...

... I am a Socialite.  (And that kind of makes me giggle.)  But at least that's what my friends at The Preppy Mafia say!  I was tagged and have the change to share a little about myself... also share this cute button with you!

1. Who is your style icon?  Reese Witherspoon.  She is so classic, southern, and a former debutante.  Even when she is “dressing down”, she is so put together.

2. What is your favorite socialite lit book?  Love Devil in the Junior League by Linda Francis Lee.

3.  Favorite party theme? Winter - Christmas Open House... Spring - Aiken Steeplechase

4. “Go to” Halloween costume? Didn’t have one until reading about Beth’s witch hat (I already own!) and black cocktail dress (ditto!)… Très chic!

5. Extravagance you cannot live without? Is having a maid really considered an extravagance?   I also love a good pedicure… must book one now!

6. Living person you admire? Laura Bush

7. Greatest Fear? Something happening to our boys.

8. Trait you deplore in yourself? My weight… gets in the way of cute clothes!

9. Which talent would you most like to have? Flower arranging... never have had the opportunity to learn.  And I love having fresh flowers around the home.  Sigh...

10. Greatest Achievement? Bouncing back and ON TOP after my divorce…then  marrying the right guy and living the life I love (and deserve!) with him and our boys.
 

So, there is a snapshot of a southern Socialite from SC...
(Still makes me giggle!)
Oh, and pictures from Steeplechase will be posted soon!
