Hat Attack + Giveaway

Wed, 16 Jan 2013 11:00:03 +0000

Despite growing up in Wisconsin, I’m still a wimp in winter – which means I rarely leave the house without bundling up. These days, I’ve been sticking with my trusted beanie by Hat Attack! Plus, their fur/knit scarf is the perfect matching touch, and the microfur-lined armwarmers ensure even my arms and hands stay toasty (and they have tons more cute options). In need of some cozy accessories? GREAT NEWS! Thanks to Hat Attack, you could win these exact three pieces! Keep reading for details!

Have you seen the previews for the Anna Karenina movie yet? Based on the novel by the Russian writer Leo Tolstoy and directed by the Joe Wright (Pride and Prejudice, Atonement), it looks amazing. Keira Knightley is always perfect, but I’m especially excited to see her in the gorgeous costumes designed by Oscar nominee Jacqueline Durran. Plus, Jude Law? Yes, please.

Stephanie Johnson Giveaway

Thu, 18 Oct 2012 20:21:33 +0000

As you may already know, I love my beauty and skincare products (latest evidence here). I also love taking them all with me when I travel! Thankfully, it’s actually pretty easy to do that with my fave Stephanie Johnson cosmetic case – I love the fun colors and chevron! I also have a couple flat pouches from SJ that go in my purse and hold my necessities for the day (concealer, hair spray, mascara, powder…). If you’re not already familiar with Stephanie Johnson, I suggest you check her out. I swear, you won’t find cuter cases anywhere! Plus, see below for how to win your very own!
