You Can Never Have Too Much Flair! (Giveaway CLOSED)
Take a look around here really quickly. Yup, that’s right — look around. Any guess as to my favorite color? Hmm, if you’re thinking it’s blue you get a big red x, my friend. So, let’s see, what could it be…do do do…um, oh yes! Pink! I love pink, and my tendency to purchase clothing in all shades of pink actually earned me the nickname “Pinky” in college. As Elle from Legally Blonde would say “It’s my signature color!”
In case you’re wondering why I’m suddenly talking about my favorite color, I’ll just go ahead and explain where this is going. Last week I got an email from one of my favorite companies, Boon Inc. detailing all of their newest products. (If you haven’t already noticed my love for Boon, you can read my reviews of the Frog Pod, Animal Bag, Snack Ball and Flo, and their new Bug Pod and Flo in Pink) So, I’m scanning this email and suddenly I notice that the super-modern, super-cool Flair High Chair is now being offered in Pink! I swooned, and immediately emailed the folks at Boon to tell them that I am “utterly in love” with the newly-tinted Flair. Little girls everywhere will be able to rock the Flair in Pink just in time for Valentine’s Day!
The Flair is truly the crème de la crème of highchairs and, as with all Boon products, proves that you don’t have to sacrifice style for functionality. A pedestal highchair, the Flair has a pneumatic lift that makes adjusting the height virtually effortless. The seat is seamless, which is fantastic for clean-up because I SO hate cleaning in all of those little crevices (well, I so hate cleaning in general, but that’s a whole ‘nother post…). The Flair has a chemical-resistant, waterproof pad that can be easily removed for cleaning, a five-point harness, and an adjustable tray. The pedestal base slides smoothly in any direction on six urethane casters that will not scratch your floors, and has a hands-free braking system that quickly and simply locks the chair in place. It’s also non-toxic…the Flair is BPA-free, PVC-free, and Phthalate-free.
Did I mention that it’s fantastic to look at? Seriously, where highchairs are concerned, this one rocks!
The new Pink Flair is being released soon and will start shipping from Boon’s website and Amazon starting in the middle of this month!
So, are you feelin’ the pink Flair? Boon has generously offered to giveaway one of their new Pink Flair Highchairs to a very lucky Chic Shopper Chick reader!

What’s For Dinner? Reservations! (Giveaway CLOSED)
I was chatting on Skype with some of my friends the other day and, one by one, they started leaving our chat to go do this thing they called “making dinner.” I scoffed at such a silly concept — cooking is something to be done on special occasions – you know, like Holidays and um, let’s see…oh yes…when I want to fool guests into thinking I’m a domestic goddess. In all seriousness, I was somehow deprived of the womanly instinct that gives me the desire to cook, clean, nest, etc. To make up for it, I was given extra of the shopping instinct. So no, I can’t cook a Holiday Ham, but I certainly can help you pick out one rockin’ outfit for your office party.
For those of you who, like me, need a little assistance on the domestic front, I have just the thing to make your life (and role as a domestic goddess) a bit easier. Even if you don’t need any help, I think you’ll still love the Plan-A-Meal Bundle from Knock Knock. It comes with a Takeout Menu Organizer which is a hard cardboard binder with an elastic closure. It has a 50-sheet pad for taking orders (aptly titled “What Do You Want?”) from your family, a pen, a tipping guide, 9 tabbed dividers with menu storage pockets and adhesive tab labels for easy organization and a frequently called numbers list (because while I know the number to Chili’s and Outback by heart, I might need a reminder if we’re calling for Pizza.) I’m not sure where this awesome binder has been all my life or why my mother didn’t give it to me as a right of passage when I got married, but I’ll just say that I’m so glad I have one now.
The bundle also comes with a “What to Eat” pad, which has lots of room to plan out your dinners ahead of time (including boxes for “dine in”, “dine out”, and “takeout”) including breakfasts, lunches, and a “grab bag” section. It’s great for pre-planning that grocery list, or just sticking to a healthier eating plan, like I’ve been trying to do, when you know you have already planned out your meals for the week. Finally, the bundle also comes with an “All Out Of” pad, which is FANTASTIC because I’m always managing to forget one of my necessities when I go to the store. It has categories for almost anything I would ever have in my house at a given time, making it really easy to just check off what I’m out of when it happens. Plus, it’s magnetic so it’s just stuck to my fridge, and it’s always accessible (even if I do have to check it off with eyeliner).
You can buy all three of these things separately on the Knock Knock Website, but it’s cheaper to buy the bundle, and you’ll use them all, without a doubt. The bundle sells for $30.60.
Knock Knock has generously offered to giveaway one Plan-A-Meal Bundle to a lucky Chic Shopper Chick reader! To enter, visit the Knock Knock website and tell me what other product, besides the one mentioned here, would you love to have?

Celebrate the Firsts – Earth’s Best Giveaway!
When I was in college I was a nanny for a family that had 3 amazing little boys, aged 6 and under. Both of their parents were athletes, so their house was filled with healthy foods – and it was at their house where I was introduced to the world of organic foods. I scoffed at their need to buy organic everything, though I would have never dared breathe a word of that out loud. One day, the boys were sleeping and I sat down in the kitchen to study for a test with a glass of organic milk and an organic cookie (or 3). I was almost completely engrossed in French History when I realized that I was having the most fantastic-tasting milk and cookie snack EVER.
I was sold. (Yes, leave it to me to like it because it tastes better, not because it’s better for me.) I went home that night and spent a couple of hours on the internet, researching and discovering the benefits of organic foods. Since then I have been buying organic for myself, and eventually for my family. Naturally, having Little AG brought a whole new set of concerns to light – first and foremost I wanted to be sure that what I was feeding her was the absolute, top-of-the-line best thing for her. I didn’t want anything in her little body that was less than perfect. I eventually settled on Earth’s Best – we used their cereal, teething cookies, fruit bars, and baby food (and um, ok, I may have even eaten a few of their Sesame Street cheese crackers myself in a moment of weakness). Little AG and I both approved.
Naturally when Earth’s Best approached me with their “Celebrate the Firsts” promotion I felt really comfortable jumping on board. Not only do I love their products, but this new campaign is a receipt redemption program that enables parents to save money on organic baby products including formula, jar foods, juices, cereal, teething biscuits and pastina by sending in receipts for the Earth’s Best products they purchase. With our economy as it is, everyone could use a way to save a little money without compromising quality!
Here are the rewards:
$5 in coupons and bib for receipts totaling $25.
$10 in coupons plus travel size Jason Organic baby body care for $50 worth of receipts.
$15 in coupons plus Fisher Price Tubtime Friends for $100 worth of receipts.
Win it! You can win a First Foods Gift Pack (pictured above) from Earth’s Best! To enter, leave a comment here (and a little effort is required. No “enter me” or “I wanna win” type entries are accepted, but you don’t have to write a book either. It’s all about balance people. kthxbai). As usual, extra entries are available for stumbling Chic Shopper Chick (leave your stumble name), subscribing to my site, following me on Twitter, and blogging about this giveaway with a link back here.

Lunchbags that will make any Fashionista jealous! (A giveaway!)
December 6, 2008 by Erika
Filed under Fashion & Style, Giveaways, Shopping
I am a handbag snob. Plain and simple. I tend to have a ton of handbags, each one more fabulous than the next. I will admit that the only time I ever brought my own lunch to work with me, it was in a cutesey bag. I don’t do the brown paper thing. I also don’t do the icky bulky lunch tote thing. So, when my friend Lori from A Cowboys Wife and My Wooden Spoon introduced me to these fabulous lunchbags by Elle, I was oh-so-very-excited. I mean c’mon. Who would have ever thought you’d hear “lunchbag” and “Elle” in the same sentence?
I have the ELLE Holly Lunch Bag in Houndstooth
