Mug is All You Need
I love a good mug. Perhaps I got this trait from my mom. I'm often drinking hot tea & you need a lovely little mug to sip it out of. Obviously. My mom surprised me with this nice gift -- a Kate Spade monogram mug. Too cute.
My name is Carmen (duh), so my letter of choice is C. This mug kind of reminds me of Minnie Mouse, which I'm not ashamed to represent in my 20s. The white polka dots on the red background are refreshing & whimsical. I love the additional stripes inside the mug. A perfect little surprise after you've had a few sips.
Plus it's only $15 with a lifetime Lenox Breakage Replacement Program which means that if you break it you can get a new mug for half off the retail price. Now that's pretty good considering my reputation with mugs. Eek.
What do you think of this Kate Spade mug? Are you a mug person? What's your drink of choice? :]

YES! Hot chocolate is always a fab idea. :]
DeleteCute! I'm totally with you on the mug addiction. It's so hard to not buy them constantly when you can pick some up for less than $5! I'm running out of room on my coffee bar. Eek! I love the Kate Spade find! :)

In college I used to go to thrift stores & they have sooo many super cheap mugs! >.<
DeleteThat's such a cute mug! I don't even think I have a mug... I just drink out of a glass cup :P

Eek, Don't burn yourself. :p
DeleteLove that striping detail on the inside of your mug! I'm always drinking coffee and tea (it' the only way I get through the day!) I constantly have my eye out for cool mugs...actually just bought some pretty cool ones on sale at Anthro over the holidays. I love to look on Etsy for cool mugs and ceramic items. I rarely ever buy anything because I live in Argentina, but that one day when I move to the US I'm sure I'll go crazy on Etsy stocking up on all the awesome homemade homewares, especially ceramic mugs and bowls!
ReplyDeleteOh, for Christmas I got one of those brewing tea cups and I LOVE it. If you like loose tea, you should check it out! http://www.amazon.com/FORLIFE-Curve-Asian-Infuser-ounces/dp/B001739RIA

Anthro has great stuff, albeit expensive. I ought to check out Etsy; the handmade items are so wonderful. Whoa, the Asian Infuser is really cool looking! :]
DeleteOh my goodness! I absolutely love it!! Favorite drink is definitely coffee for sure. Every morning and afternoon.
ReplyDeleteAfternoon too? If I have caffeine after like 3, I'm up all night!! >.<
DeleteI go back and forth between coffee and tea :) Lovely mug!

ReplyDeleteI don't really drink many hot drinks - it's usually so hot here in Australia, my main drink is water, ha! But I always have a cute mug at work in case I need something warm through the day.
Away From The Blue
I can imagine. My mom lived in Australia for years, so perhaps she enjoys drinking tea in the slightly (although not much) cooler temperatures. :]
DeleteLovely mug and nice 'insurance' idea!

This mug looks so incredibly lovely!
ReplyDeleteI, too, am an absolute mug-hoarder :D I love having a big variety of mugs to choose from!
I'd say I'm more of a tea person (and also a tea-hoarder) but I certainly don't mind a nice cup of coffee every now and then, as well :)

I'm a tea hoarder as well. I have a cabinet of teas. >.<
DeleteBeing in the cold like 70% of the year (in London haha!) not only do I love a mug, but even better the supersized ones which hold even more of my green tea!! Loving your featured one though!! :) x
ReplyDeleteGasp, I need that mug in my life! :) There is nothing better than starting the morning out with a cup o' joe in your fav coffee mug. Love this! Thank you for sharing this little treasure! :)

The mug is super adorable, and a great way to add some pep to a dreary morning! That's so sweet that your mom got you that! I love a good mug, I need to invest in my own monogram mug!

If there is anything I love more than a good coffee mug, it is a Kate Spade (Minnie Mouse inspired) STRIPED mug- perfection!
