I am a major sucker for packaging. It's really sad, but you could put almost anything in a pretty package and I'd probably buy it. So, it's no wonder that I was so excited to come across Evian's newest bottle of water designed by the acclaimed fashion designer, Christian Lacroix.
It's called the "Prêt-à-Porter"
2008 Limited Edition bottle. How beautiful would this be for the holidays? It''s delicate,white lacy pattern is
so gorgeous and it has that shabby vintage look that I love.
Now, pretty bottled water does not come cheap. On the Evian website, a bottle is selling for $13.95! But, if you're pinching your pennies (and who isn't these days?), you can find them at Target for only $4.99! Still a bit pricey for a bottle of water, but after you've finished drinking it, you can recycle it and use it as a vase for flowers! See…totally justifiable. J
Going to go get some right now!!!

Almost a year later, here I am- finally! Actually, it's Sept, but I am sitting here oohing, aahing and drooling over every one of your pages. This wonderful bottle captured my heart as well (no Target here- I'm in Montreal Canada) but the 5$ was too steep for water- even for me. So... I waited a loong time and got a couple at a great markdown of 1$. Yup! And at a grocery store, to boot. Patience has its rewards.
I'm delighted to have found your site and will continue to visit with you often.
Thank you for your wonderful inspirations!
