Mimi & Lola?


So alot of you are wondering who's Mimi & Lola? My name is Laura and my mom's name is Lidia. When choosing our company name, we were thinking of the following:

We wanted a catchy but fun name. We didn't want to limit our company name to just blankets. And in the future we wanted to expand our blankets for adults. So we came up with Designs By Mimi & Lola. Mimi is my daughter Madeleine's nickname. I think it's cute and fun. Lola is my nickname. I was labeled on my wedding day. The French Jesuit priest filling in for my parish priest could not pronounce my name no matter how many times I corrected him. By the end of the night everyone was calling me Lola!

To this day, my friends still call me Lola.
