Oh So Divine! Cards, Canines & Cheer!
December 2011 - Bellajenna and Sienna Sweetie wants
to thank all who came out to the Canines Divine event this past Saturday at M29 Lifestyle in Georgetown. What a fantastic day for great causes that featured Bellajenna Cards and celebrated the DC Humane Society and Fashion for Paws Super Model Calendar 2012 release.
There were treats for everyone and their canines, as well as the opportunity to get your Holiday photo taken
with your pooch! The fabulous crowd included the Fashion for Paws calendar dogs and their model owners, local
personalities Kate Michael from KStreetKate.net, Scott Thuman from ABC 7 News, Mary- Kate Rasa from DC Bisnow and of
course, our canine hostess Sienna Sweetie. And who could resist the pooches all deck out in their Holiday best! Someone
must have told them Santa was watching, because they were all perfect angels.
Special thanks to M29 Lifestyle for hosting another wonderful event
- and for inviting Bellajenna to participate with a great cause!

Flower Power
November 2011 - I am so pleased to share with all of you that Bellajenna greeting cards are
now available at K Aubrey Flowers in Alexandria.
I love living in the Washington, DC area. The City offers so much to be enjoyed and to
admire. But if I were to list the few things I miss about living in NYC, believe it or not, one of those things would
be the flowers! Oh, I don’t mean the Mary, Mary quite contrary kind of flowers – I mean fabulous bouquets
and arrangements, centerpieces and conversation pieces; flowers that make a statement. From the local bodega on the
corner to flower shops like Bloom on Lexington Avenue and Ariston Florist in the Flatiron District. Fabulous flowers
and stylish arrangements are everywhere in NYC! When my husband and I first moved to the DC area we found it challenging
to find the same stylish florist – it seemed that unless we wanted to order the latest FTD bouquet or Teleflora arrangement,
the artistry and the flower power was a bit lacking. And then we discovered K Aubrey Flowers in Alexandria!
I was first introduced to
Kevin by a client and now wonderful friend, Deb who selected Kevin for her daughter Paige’s wedding. Deb and I
were enjoying lunch together when I had the pleasure of seeing the arrangements. Our breaths were taken away by
what we saw – Kevin is a sheer artist and the arrangements simply gorgeous. Visit his store in Old Town
Alexandria and you will see what makes Kevin and his artistry so special. DC has flower power too and I highly recommend K
Aubrey to all my Bella bride’s and bride’s to be. And of course, for any other special occasion or event!

July 2011 - When you think of North Carolina, those
of us above the Mason-Dixon line, we conjure up images of good Southern living and charm, pitchers of sweet tea, blue skies, smiling faces when greeted and those fervent Tar Heel fans!
Now
you can add Bellajenna Cards to that list. Chapel
Hill has some fabulous shopping! So we are proud to announce that Bellajenna is now available at Bloom - in Chapel Hill's Southern Village, Cameron's - at University Mall and Jesters - at Meadowmont Village Circle.
These 3 charming boutiques are just simply unique and each offer the sweetest
gifts for your home, garden and living! The next
time you are in Chapel Hill, stop in for a visit - Tell them Bellajenna says, Hi Y'all!

M...azing
April
2011 - Bellajenna greeting cards are now available at
M 29 Lifestyle in Georgetown.
Situated right on M Street
at 29th in Georgetown (get it, M 29?), this M...azing boutique has to be one of the coolest and chic-est spaces I have seen
in DC. And, if the street location is not fabulous enough for you, then how about this. M 29 Lifestyle is part of the
Four Seasons Hotel.
So what else makes this
boutique so M...azing? True to its name, this is a Lifestyle boutique with a carefully selected collection of clothing,
jewelry and home accessories. And for the man (or men) in your life of luxury, there is a selection of gifts from shirts
to links, ties and accessories from Paul Smith and other fine designers.
The décor is equally fabulous and inspiring as you walk around this sun lit space. Think Soho industrial
art gallery meets Island Resort. Really! The unique art on the wall to home goods from designers like John Derian just
fit so perfectly among the tunics, dresses and other accessories around the store.
This boutique is a one-of-a-kind find and one of my favorites. I bet it will be one
of yours too! Stop in and say hi to Allyson and the girls, and tell them Bellajenna sent you.
