Outfit Of This Weekend: Shimmy Shake + LAB Floral Collar Giveaway!

It’s giveaway time! It has been two months since I launched a new design and format for this blog, and I have been absolutely elated with all of the great feedback that I have received from everyone so far!

So as a thank you! to you guys for being so darn awesome (‘cuz you are) and for sticking with me as I continue to work out the kinks of a new layout (‘cuz it feels like it will never end), I am doing a giveaway involving one of my absolute favorite Etsy shops: LAB by Laura Bosony. One lucky reader will receive a $75 gift certificate good for an embellished collar, a pair of funky earrings, or whatever else happens to catch your eye in the shop. Better yet? Two more readers will also win $25 gift certificates, too!

And so after  taking some shots of my outfit from yesterday, I decided to also take some photos of what I am planning to wear tonight for a casual date night out. Looking through my blog, it’s pretty darn easy to see that this GAP nude blouse is definitely one of my favorite items in my entire wardrobe–it’s silky, comfortable in the super hot heat, and machine washable. Machine washable! Amazing.

I really wanted a neutral/nude blouse to pair with this Zara sequin fringe skirt to let the vibrant, sequiny stripes pop, and this blouse does just the trick.  Voila, and have a happy weekend you guys!
