"C" your way to the New Year

We Pretties are busily party-planning so that we can ring in 2009 in the Prettiest way possible.

Because we're C-elebrating the start of 2009, this post is brought you by the letter C!

Crumbs Cupcakes

Crumbs is one of the Prettiest places in Beverly Hills, forget about Hungry Girl -- think about how much you'll love digging into a cupcake the size of your own head when you're getting a little tipsy.

What??? You haven't yet tried Crumbs? Seriously, what is wrong with you?! Stop what you're doing (after finishing this post) and run -- you'll need the exercise after the cupcake -- to 9465 Little Santa Monica Blvd, Beverly Hills. They also just opened a location in the Americana in Glendale and at 216 N. Larchmont Blvd.

Champagne

An absolute must! The LA Times very conveniently just printed up a guide to show the best places to get some. At least the few lucky reporters who were able to keep their jobs at the paper are doing their part to help our debauchery. Thanks!

Cork Containers

New Year's Eve is a great opportunity to join the Cork Brigade. Have a container handy to gather up discarded corks so that you'll be doing your part to make our planet a Prettier one.

Confetti

(Okay, so just pretend the pic above is from LA.) Confetti is a must-have for the event and it looks even Prettier after a few glasses of champagne. The perfect place it get some is at Confetti, 11957 Santa Monica Blvd. #102. Los Angeles; (310) 473-8253.

Courtney Cox

She's an LA Pretty after all. Go ahead and invite her! Who knows? Maybe she'll say yes!
