THE Go-To Gift (Remember: The Gap Tee With Matching Socks)

I know I am dating myself here, but do some of you remember when a Gap tee and matching socks was the go-to gift for every birthday party you were invited to?  

I believe I had black, white and a nice lavender color.  (The wonders of yellow hadn't caught on back then...)  The socks were thick and slouchy.  The tee may have had the option of a pocket or not.  You looked like a boy and child of the 80's.  And if you were going to a birthday party, you WERE bringing a Gap tee with matching socks.  It simply wasn't done any other way.  And back then, we were all concerned with doing things exactly like everyone else.  (Oh, how things have changed.)


Guess what?  There is a new game in town.  A new Go-To Gift.  And this gift shows off your personality and that of the recipient.  Creativity.  Self-expression.  Gasp.  And yay!

If you haven't heard of Sweaty Bands, you haven't been in our shoppe, on our website, on our Facebook page, or at our cocktail parties.  We sell more Sweaty Bands than Sweaty Bands themselves. (Okay, not really, but I learned the art of exaggeration in law school, and I need to use that overpriced degree occasionally.)  Seriously though, we love Sweatys.  They are great for working out and even better for when your hair isn't cooperating.  I am wearing the 1" Viva Diva in Silver today.  Functional enough for Crossfit and cute and for a class/conference room.  Versatile baby.  And P.S.  At $15-$18, these are the PERFECT Go-To Gift.
Recently we added One.Striped.Heart Hippie Hair Ties to our collection of fab.  These little ties are $7-$9.  They don't break your hair, they look cute on your wrist, and they come in every color.  If you have hair and you don't own one, stop reading this and go buy one.

This Go-To Gift Combo rings up at $22-$27.  There are TONS of color combinations and styles for you to personalize this gift.  (Without extreme altering, there is only so much you can do with a Gap tee.  And those socks...  Thank goodness we have evolved.)

Plus, Bon Lemon has free shipping, complimentary gift wrapping, and we will even include a letter pressed birthday card with your own message so they know you really care.  Essentially, you are losing money by not buying this Go-To Gift Combo for your next birthday, Bat Mitzvah, or teacher's gift (hint. hint.), etc.  Thanks for letting us make things easy.  It is fun!

  1. Oh the joys of getting a matching GAP shirt and socks! I seem to also remember lots of trips down to Archibald Sisters to buy a plastic, translucent box that I'd fill with candy, little toys, and jewelry. I think I gave/received those for 5 years straight!
