Bread and Butter

We learned to write our thank yous in grade school. But we learned to love writing them later on, when Jane’s Vanity came into our world.

Dear Mother,

Thank you for the hand-knit muffler. Love the colors of green and yellow and black. They go with everything. You are the best mom ever. Hope you are excited about your date with the guy down the hall. Lucky you don’t have to drive. Be sure to wear the Jane’s Vanity dress I sent you, the Seraphina from Gilda & Pearl. The pink sequins and feathers will match your new hair color. All it needs is the Ivresse Champagne and Crystal Swarovski Stay Up stockings I sent from Barazandeh.  Devotedly… 

Dear Auntie,

How are you, you old goat? The children adore the bathtub basketball hoop and the shaving cream. You are so thoughtful. And thank you for remembering my size in Studio Pia’s Zaida Longline Lingerie Set from JV. Its black tulle and swirling embroidery were just what I wanted. How did you know? Hope your month in Cabo will be everything you hope. Don’t forget your pills. Feliz año nuevo y besos…

Dear Darling,

See you in a few days. Just a quick thank you for the gorgeous roses and ooh la la Deshabille Tulle Babydoll from JV. Oh, and the Christine Vancouver Moonlight Chiffon Robe with the high slits and flutter sleeves. A brilliant pairing with the Babydoll. Bravo! Now I can pack light. We don’t have to go out.

Dear Jane and Emily,

Thank you for a great year! Each JV piece I own recalls a special event (or moment). Right now I’m welcoming the Meghan Luxe White Silk Crepe Gown into my social life. I look forward to the next JV treasure, just around the corner. You are the best, Love…
