What is your #StarbucksAtHome cup name? (tell us and win)
Each morning, I visit my local Starbucks Cafe around the corner from my house and start my day with a Starbucks. As most people know, I’m a big fan of the brand. A couple of years ago, there was a barista who started writing the wrong name on my cup. When he asked what my name was, he scribbled the name ‘Stever’ on my cup. Now, I don’t think ‘Stever’ is a name but that is what it said. Over the coming weeks, I got ‘Dan’, ‘Dale’, ‘Eric’, among others. I found it so funny that I posted them regularly on social media. It became a running joke as to what my name would be this week.
Here is my cup with ‘Dan’ on it beside a Bobbi Brown doll from a press kit.
Good news! You no longer have to line up at a Starbucks Cafe to get the wrong name on your cup. You can do it yourself at home with this #StarbucksAtHome customizable cup. Brew up a cup of True North, Caffe Verona or Pike Place (from your local grocery store) and write your very own #StarbucksAtHome wrong name. If your name is Jenn, then maybe your #StarbucksAtHome cup name is Taylor. If you are Cindy, then maybe you’re Kaila! And if you happen to have the name Cookie….well…the barista would likely get that one right. Maybe Cookie can be Angelina. Switch it up each day depending on your mood. I was ‘Kyle’ this week. I guarantee it will make you laugh.
Of course, being a Dave Lackie giveaway, you need the perfect Autumn fragrance and makeup. I thought Burberry’s romantic and feminine My Burberry Blush Collection would be the perfect accompaniment. This soft floral was created by Master Perfumer Francis Kurkdjian who blends lemon, pomegranate, rose petals, green apple, geranium, jasmine and wisteria. It is inspired by a British garden at dawn.
This pink taupe Burberry Complete Eye palette is a hidden gem in the collection – very flattering neutrals with just the right amount of pigment. I’ve added a Liquid Lip Velvet in Primrose, a warm pink. And a cute mini size of Cat Lashes mascara.
The Giveaway: I gave away this #StarbucksAtHome + Burberry Beauty set to one lucky reader. To enter, I asked readers to tell me in a blog post comment below what their #StarbucksAtHome cup name would be! The funnier the better!! So many hilarious names. We drew the name Tanae Marie from all entries as the winner. Lots more to come!
Starbucks packaged coffee and tea are available at select grocery stores and drug stores in Canada.
Burberry Beauty is available in Canada at select Hudson’s Bay stores and thebay.com

September 18, 2017 at 2:53 pmSince we only have 1 Starbucks in Johannesburg (travesty!!) and it’s pretty far from where I live or work, I’ve only had it once ???? If I visited daily, as I will when they open up closer to me, my name is Tiffany but I shall request: Princess Consuela Banana Hammock ???? (Just a F.R.I.E.N.D.S nut like everyone else) ????

September 18, 2017 at 2:52 pmMy Starbucks cup name usually turns into Divine, but I once got such a blank look that they just drew a picture and stared at me after it was made so I could pick it up!

My #starbucksathome name would be “Baboon” right now because my husband gave me that nickname as I am pregnant and well, I think he meant “Gorilla” LOL Baboon came to his mind… I dont think he knows what they look like hahaha., my belly and chest remind him of a “baboon” apparently I should be embarrassed but this is what pregnancy has done to me!
