Even “regular” people who aren’t unnecessarily promoting a business or themselves carries cards. In that case, the cards are usually nondescript with just a name and email address, which is a must have actually. I recall even receiving a “Myspace” card from a guy. It seemed hilarious at the time, but myspace is only one of the social website that’s listed on my Lolo’s Cube business cards.

So of course, an eye-catching business card holder is a must; especially for someone who issues them normally. And why not use the opportunity of issuing a business card as stylish one. How good of an impresion would it be to pull the card out of a jeweled, stainless steel or an exotic skinned card holder? Way better then those faux blue leather card holder that usually comes free with a order of cards by default.

Stylish business cards holders are also great gifts as it’s an overlooked area.

I’ve provided some options below in an array of designs. Also, check out your local vintage for rare business card holder finds. Vintage cigarette holders can also be used as business card holders.

But I’m back full time, or fully back to my part time blogging obligations. I have a few reader request to get to, as well as getting back to my Dress-A-Day posts, weekly Becuase I’m Addicted, as well as working on breaking down celeb looks and providing alternates…

Ross-Simons Signature Classic Pearl Necklace only $29.95.
Use code CLASSIC2 for $3.95 shipping available to this offer only.

And since V-Day is coming back around, I’m starting the week off with a gift idea. Of course this gift is also suitable for a birthday, anniversary, congratulations, or a kudos to self.

Ross-Simons announced a limited and unprecedented offer, never before heard of in the jewelry industry. Get ready for incredible savings on one of the rarest and most classic symbols of luxury – The Ross-Simons Signature Classic Pearl Necklace.

Appearing in the New York Times on January 11th, 2009 and the February edition of Martha Stewart Living, this newsworthy necklace will be released at the unbelievable reserve of $29.95!

Thanks to exclusive arrangements with a direct source for cultured pearls, Ross-Simons obtained the authorization to distribute these highly prized, cultured necklaces at rock bottom prices. Such an incredible value is unheard of in the fine jewelry industry.

Pearls were previously known to be a staple within an elders’ jewelry box.  But they can be worn in modern ways.  Here’s a few tips on ways to rock pearls:

1: Combine 3 strands of pearls, either 1 either one or more colors, and pair them with a simple sheath for a chic look.

2: Wear a strand of pearls wrapped around your wrist for a multi-strand bracelet look.

3: Wear a strand of pearls around each wrist, over a basic long sleeve shirt, to create a faux-pearl cuff look.

4: Create a link between two strands: Pair two different colored strands a pearls together; hook both strands around each other; on the back of your neck, double one strand color; on the front, double the other color of pearls.

5. Try option 4 with a simple chain, or different sized strands or multiple looks.

[someecards]

I know a lot of blogs posted Mother’s Day gift ideas this week. And since Lolo’s Cube is a fashion and shopping blog, it seems like I should have been chugging along with the others, but I got blogger’s block. Sorry. But in my laziness and procrastination I came up with the perfect gift idea.

These last few weeks, I’ve been home full time due to a minor foot surgery. During this time I’ve done things such as dishes, laundry and floors. I want to confirm that I hate doing dishes, laundry and floors.

Usually, I drop my laundry off at the fluff and fold before heading to the mall and in the time it takes me to spend the balance of my latest pay raise, my laundry is fluffed and folded. But all week, Sweetums has been telling me that all his boxers are dirty, but he just can’t make it to the laundry. So of course, I went and bought him a pack. This is what I usually do when I run out of drawers and my visits to the fluff and folds are lacking. But he kept running out, and boxers costs money. So, like a nice stay-at-home girlfriend, I washed his clothes at my mom’s house.

The dishes I do about once a week. There is only two of us, and we *clears throats* I mean he only cooks a few times a week, so there isn’t much need in this area. But since I’m home, the dishes pile up a lot faster and they’re all my dishes. I can’t expect him to clean up after me everyday, even though I’m semi-handicap (or temporarily disabled, as my red parking placard reads), so I’ve been doing dishes more times than usual.

The floors, I always mean to do every 2 weeks. But when it was time for me to do the kitchen floor, it was my surgery week and that week was pretty crazy. Then I was told to not walk for 3 days afterwards and was sleeping days after that, due to medication side effects. Needless to say, the kitchen floor was long overdo. So, I dragged that big azz semi handicap boot across the apartment and mopped the kitchen floor.

These are the things that I’ve always hated doing: chores and cleaning. And they’re all the things that our mothers do without thinking. Cleaning the house, while feeding us and whipping our snotty noses without missing a beat. Some doing it alone, as my mother did, with 4 bad azz children coming behind her to reverse all her work. But with the title of Mother, comes these responsibilities. And though all my siblings are adults, I’m taking away these responsibilities from her, at least for a year.

Momma Lo is getting one year of maid service. I’ve already worked it out with the cleaning lady. It’s the least I can do to say thanks for wiping my snooty nose and sorry for shaking the Fruity Pebbles cereal on the kitchen floor, right after you put your gleaming touch on it. Thanks Mom, Love you.

We’ve come a long way, and this year has been one of the best in a long while, so I wanted to give the gift of relaxation.

Other Mother’s Day gifts I was pondering:
A cruise
A weekend at a luxury hotel, with room service and in-room massage
A day at the luxury spa

And I would like to say Happy Mother’s Day to the blogging Mother’s.

Cassie of Celeb Blitz
Poca of Real Stars Don’t Struggle to Shine
Lady Shay of Sips, Hips ‘N Kicks
Thoughts of a Southern Gal
Miss Mika of A REALM OF RANDOMNESS
PCD (Pretty Circle Drawer) of THE PRETTY CIRCLE
Ms. Behaving of THIS LIL’ WRITE OF MINE
Celena of Strictly Fabulous
Liz of Los Angelista’s Guide To The Pursuit Of Happiness

Happy Mother’s Day.

My apologies if I didn’t mention you.
