Carolyne Roehm

Holiday Season
November 2006

The holiday hoopla has officially begun. I have several stories I hope will help you embrace this exciting, beautiful–and yes, hectic–time of year with grace and gusto.

This month marks the one-year anniversary of Presentations! To celebrate, we have created a whole new look for Carolyne Roehm Style, which I am thrilled to unveil here. I hope you find it to be appealing and inspiring (and easy to navigate).

These past weeks I have been traveling around the country for speaking engagements and to promote my newest book, A Passion for Parties. I’ve had a lot of time to reflect while I wrack up air miles.

Something that comes to me again and again is what a joy it is to meet many of you. Continuing our dialog has been an ongoing goal of Presentations. That said I am happy to share with you a new department, “Your Stories.” I hope you will read, enjoy… and participate.

Lastly, I am so flattered to be on the cover of this month's Town & Country magazine. I hope you will grab a copy and have a look at my gold and glowing New Year's Eve party. Some of my new products are also featured, so you can see more ways that I use them in my own home.
