Welcome to our new site lovelies!

Welcome to the new and improved BonBon Rose Girls! We would like to take a moment to thank all of you lovely readers who have followed us over to our new digs. Keep in mind that we’re still a bit of a work in progress, but we hope you love the new site as much as we do! And we also hope that you’ll update your blog rolls with our new URL and re-follow us here if you followed us over at Blogger! If you subscribe to our feed you don’t need to re-subscribe…it transferred over here.

Thanks to the gorgeous genius behind Livit, Luvit, we have been able to make the WordPress move rather painlessly. Well, it was painless for us anyway. I’m sure she’s ready to be rid of our inane questions. HA! How about a round of applause for our lovely web guru!

So, as you can see, we have a few new features. At the top of the page you’ll find our blog roll under “sites we adore” and all the other info is pretty self explanatory…except for “be a rosebud.” That is a special project that we’ve been toiling over and will be unveiling in the next few weeks. I can’t tell you how excited we are about it! Also, at the bottom of each post you can find ways to share things you like here!

In celebration of our big move, we have some fabulous giveaways headed your way this month…the first being two, count ’em, two $95 gift certificates to a fabulous company that has gorgeous swimsuits galore called hapari. That means there will be two lucky winners!

I would go for a tankini myself, but if a bikini is more your scene, you’ll find those too…along with fabulous coverups and even goodies for the fella or kiddo in your life!

So, here’s the skinny on ways you can enter…Update: You only have to tell us which action you took. For example, if you followed us on GFC, just tell us that. We’ll count it 10 times. You don’t have to enter a comment that you followed on GFC 10 times. Sorry about the confusion!

1. Visit hapari and tell us what you would choose if you were a winner. {1 entry}
2. Follow our new site with Google Friend Connect, which is at the top of our left sidebar. {10 entries}
3. “Like” BonBon Rose Girls on Facebook. {2 entries}
4. “Like” hapari on Facebook {2 entries}
5. Follow BonBon Rose Girls on Twitter. {2 entries}
6. Follow hapari on Twitter {2 entries}
7. Tweet about this giveaway {2 entries}
8. Blog about this giveaway {3 entries}
9. Grab our new button from our right sidebar {5 entries}

This giveaway will be open through next Tuesday at midnight. Best of luck lovelies…And thank you again for visiting us at our new home! We hope to see you back here again! And since we’re not above bribery…Our next giveaway is a piece by a little lady named Kate Spade. We’re shameless…but then you already knew that didn’t you? HA!

Fall Photos

Last year we had so much fun with an impromptu fall photo session with Jake.  Looking back he was SO small!  How does one year change things so much?! He is now a toddler running around with blond hair! Regardless I learned a few things about fall photos from that day. 1) While it’s nice…

    So sorry for being absent for a while and being such a terrible Blog friend.

    1. @Jen, Oops, sorry I missed this question! With most of our giveaways we just kind of let people interpret that rule for themselves because people rarely do it the same way even if we lay it out. We figure ya’ll are taking the time to enter, we’ll take the time to count up the entries in whatever manner you submit them!

  110. OMG! It looks amazing over here! Congrats on the big move and the new layout. I love it!

    And I LOVE Hapari suits! I actually had a fave from before, but I never got it…it’s the Metro V-Neck Tankini. (I’m all about more coverage swimsuits this summer!)

    I also follow you here, on Twitter, like you on Facebook (and IRL obvs), like Hapari on Facebook, and have your new button in my collection! I think that about covers it!

  125. Ok, this giveaway couldn’t come at a better time for me, since I need to buy a new suit for my upcoming cruise! I would pick either the Island Fever v-neck tankini with the brown bikini bottoms or the Blue Aloha v-neck tankini with red polka-dot bikini bottoms that Kristin chose! I’d probably go with the Island Fever though since those are my “beach colors.”

  209. Love the new site!! Great work! I’ve been ‘window shopping’ at Haprai for a couple summers now and haven’t bought anything yet. I have several patterns I love—retro, metro, island fever, GNO and mardi gras! I just have to decide which one is best! 🙂 But the price is so reasonable, I could get a few to mix and match! Thanks for the give-away!! Have a fantastic day!!

    1. @laura, Hi Laura , sorry it took so long for us to respond. We wanted our own .com, so we figured it was a good time to make the WP switch as you own your site whereas Blogger owns all Blogger blogs. And the plugins that you can use with WP are amazing!

  269. LOVE IT! yay:)

    as for the suits, I’d love to win bc they are all fabulous and I’m all about the bikinis! I wore my belly out super proudly throughout my entire pregnancy and I know that I will need a motivator to lose the weight when my belly is flab instead of baby.

  270. Congrats on your new site! It looks fantastic!! I updated my blog roll with the new URL.

    All the swimsuits are adorable! I think I’d choose the Metro V-Neck Tankini – super cute!!

    So I am a follower via google reader I think. I don’t know. I just click follow and you pop up on my dashboard. I know. I’m soooo super computer saavy. Ha! 🙂 (10 entries)

    I also like BonBonRose Girls and Hapari on Facebook and am a Twitter friend.
    (2 + 2 +2 entries = 6)

    And I would totally choose that last tankini you posted up there. I’ll be needing it come January after I have this kiddo and go to Puerto Rico for my sister’s wedding! Mama will need a new suit and one that COVERS the stomach! (1 entry)

    So if I did the math right, that is 17 entries! Come on! Mama needs a new bathing suit! 🙂

  367. I would choose the zebra print top with teal bottoms, but the high tummy tuk ones, not the regular ones – I still have post-baby belly and I am long torso’d. =) Thanks for posting about this company; it’s always good to find a swimsuit company that carries a variety of sizes that doesn’t include the word “miracle” in the title. I was already following you on Twitter and GFC. But I re-friended you bc I assumed it is now a new ip as well. LOVE YOU, GIRLS! P.S. I nearly panicked when I opened you email, thinking something was wrong and you wouldn’t be posting anymore! LOL.
