THERE’S A CHANGE A COMING! IF YOU ARE VISITING THIS SITE AT kitchenbelleicious.blogspot.com please click HERE TO BE REDIRECTED TO MY NEW ADDRESS AT www.kitchenbelleicious.com. Make sure to do this in order to enter the giveaway below! Thanks and love you all to pieces!

Okay, before we even begin on the giveaway I want to share with you all my new site called Belleicious Kids.

It has been something I have wanted to do for a while now and even more so since my son has started eating a larger variety of foods. Belleicious Kids is a site devoted to healthy cooking and recipes for kids of all ages. My motto for Belleicious Kids is going to be, Anything THEY can do I can do healthier! LOL! Funny, huh? It is intended to let the makers of those processed foods you find in the grocery store and fast food companies know that I and by that I mean, WE, can make anything you make (seriously, we can) and it will be just as tasty and 100% better for our kids! Now, listen closely..sometimes you just gotta have butter, sugar or All Purpose Flour! However, those ingredients do NOT have to be unhealthy and fattening to your kids when used in moderation with other healthy ingredients. Just knowing how much of each ingredient you are putting into your kids food is comforting in itself.

Healthy food DOES NOT have to be boring and quite frankly it doesn’t have to “taste healthy”. It can be packed with fun and flavorful ingredients but still have great nutritional substance. Combine healthy ingredients with new and exciting ideas and you have yourself a tasty and kid friendly meal. Please do this anxious mom a favor and check out Belleicious Kids. Become a follower and support what I hope will be a great find for moms who need ideas and recipes for healthy, flavorful but simple meals and snacks.

I am kicking off my new site by having a week long of giveaways here on Kitchen Belleicious. There will be a new giveaway every other day so be sure to come back and enter them all. Each giveaway will last 1 week from the day I post it.

Okay Now To The Giveaway! Drumroll please……..

Let me introduce you to my new favorite clothing line. A must-have staple for any southern beau and belle. Southern Proper clothing, frat hats, polos,croakies and more are a mark of distinction. It is the quintessential Southern attire recently featured in our “other” bible, Southern Living. When I first saw their knit polo’s with the cute little dog and the amazing ties that just scream Prep, I knew I had to do two things. One- Get my husband as many things as I could from here and Two- Get Southern Proper to do a giveaway with Kitchen Belleicious.

I can happily say I succeeded in both! Patrick will have a few preppy presents under the tree this year (if I can wait that long) and Southern Proper graciously agreed to do a giveaway with little ole me! Let’s get to know a little more about this amazing clothing line before we get to the heart of the mater which is, What must you do to win the giveaway.

Southern Proper was launched in 2005 by Reagan Hardy and Emmie Henderson and these two girls are largely responsible for bringing “preppy” back to being fashionable again.

Aren’t they just beautiful and better yet they are truly women of faith, grace and class.

I love how Regan and Emilie describe their business and what lead them to starting Southern Proper in the first place. “Men of the south have always been noted for their distinguishable décor and dress. Their honey-soaked accents and captivating manners charm women from all parts of the world. However, it’s the tradition of sophisticated and influential attire that completes their status as gentlemen; for field or fancy, men of the South are always well-dressed. Furthermore, southern men with their modest but strong sense of style have admittedly been dressed by the daintiest of hands.

With this in mind, Southern Proper was born.A southern-inspired line of clothing, neckties, bowties and accessories for men who have a deep appreciation for style and heritage. Complimenting the southern gentlemen’s courteous manners and sweet humility, this line of clothing is pleated and tied, crisp and certain.

The cotton shirts and polo shirts offer a southern spin on a classic. They are relaxed, rolled up, timeless and tucked. A shirt for every occasion.

They have something for everyone from Classic Bowties, shirts, boxers and hats for the beaus to polo shirts, belle bands and pearls for the girls.
On another note: Could their male models be any cuter? Sorry babe but its true! LOL!

Now, nothing says fall and football season in the South like a well dressed man in a crisp, collared polo. I can just see my husband sporting their pale yellow cotton button down shirt with his khakis and lsu hat for the big game day. At night bow-ties and ties reminiscent of the ones from lines like Perlis and Vineyard Vines are perfect for a night out on the town. True to the south with old-fashioned flair Southern Proper is the new attire of the south.

Using elements of their own distinct styles, Reagan and Emmie, women who believe in old-fashioned love and new-fashioned trends, have created a company for the southern men they adore. As the old saying goes, “Look your best, but more importantly, hang your arm on someone who looks his best too.” These belles of the barn and beach tie together timeless with down home southern heritage like a well-knotted bow tie. Reagan and Emmie are all things southern, and certainly all things proper.”

The “Beaus” collection offers bow-ties with a distinct southern flair and endless options for color and style.

The “Gent’s” collection offers classic ties perfect for church, the office or parties.

Sometimes a broken t-shirt is the best way to dress up for the day!

Now don’t you be getting all sad thinking you have been left out. Southern Proper has belle attire too! Southern, Dainty and Preppy any girl would love her own set of Proper Pearls, polo shirt or Belle Band!

Belle Bands- My favorite is the hound dog belle band but of course I keep waiting for and LSU tiger band to be offered- Hint Hint!
