Princess Penna, Inc. gives you 7 practical and (Princess-y!) ways to return anything ....

That least favorite errand just got a whole lot easier.  Learn how to make even the hardest returns h
assle-free.  As, Princesses never deal with hassles.

Your last return probably went something like this.  The salesperson glanced down at your Louis Vitton umbrella/ Versace pillow/ YSL skirt/ Dior handbag/ Jimmy Choo shoes (no packaging, no receipt), then focused somewhere above your head as she muttered a tight-lipped "Hmmm, sorry."  Your protest that the receipt slipped into the trash fell on deaf ears, leaving you no closer to a refund but truly exasperated.  Well, stew no more.  CHANEL and Princess Penna, Inc. has compiled seven tips to help make returns go your way.  You may not always get your money back, but you'll definitely elicit fewer eye rolls.
Princesses have earned their right to return anything!  So, use it!

We all know that you are known as the party girl of the century.  But, unfortunately, you cannot afford showing off your newest bartending skills this holiday season.  So, what is there to do?

Tip 1:  Stick with serving a signature punch or cocktail.  Stocking a full bar can be quite costly- around $367 for wine, beer, liquors, and mixers to serve 27 guests.

You're probably the only one- besides me- in this century that still handwrites letters, right?  But right now, because of the unstable economy, you cannot afford to send out letters.  What do you do?

Tip 2:  Send out holiday postcards.  If you choose the standard 4¼-by-6-inch size, you'll save 15 cents a card (using a 27 cent stamp instead of a 42 cent one).

All of your friends know that you give the most fab hostess gifts.  But this year they are all expecting personalized blinged out bottles of wine.  How can you afford that this year?

Tip 3:  Stock up on wine by the case to present as hostess gifts.  Most retailers offer a 10 percent discount on larger orders; just ask the next time you're at a wine shop.  Some will even let you mix different brands in one box.

Of course, I'm the girl that will always promote the LBB (Little Black Book), that goes into your Versace LBCTM (Little Black Clutch), that compliments your Betsey Johnson LBD (Little Black Dress) for every occasion!  And, nothing goes better with an LBD than a silky-smooth, glamorous and glowing faux tan. But unlike other objects of beauty, spray tans don't age gracefully.
