My New Blog Design

June 3, 2012

So, what do you think? I have been working with Jenn at Munchkin Land Designs for quite some time to design a new blog that fits me and my personality. I really think we hit the nail on the head with this fun design! Check out Jenn’s website if you are in the market for a new blog design. Her prices are great and she is so very talented (I am so jealous).

To celebrate the new design, I decided to do my first Blog Giveaway! I will be giving away a brand new Rose Gold watch from Fossil. I have this same watch and absolutely LOVE it! To enter my giveaway you must 1. Be a follower/member of my blog AND 2. Leave a comment on this post. The winner will be chosen on June 18, 2012. Good Luck!!

If you have requests for future blog posts, please let me know! I am open to suggestions. Also, if you have friends who may be interested in the content of my blog please tell them about me. Thanks so much!!

    Love your blog, I like the items you post, I am a makeupjunkie also and jewlery, I love it love it. I also have just started a youtube channel as II have alot of time on my hands I have just retired, and I think I might have to go back to work cause it is to lonely around here (kids are grown) and the hubby still works, so I spend my time on the PC lol. My mother had cancer when I was 38 and it was te worst time of my life I think it was so hard she came to live with us for a while and I wished I could have been a healer just something more than i could do. Stay strong it is hard. If you feel like it check out my channel sometime theshawnee47 take care and the watch is beautiful.

    Since I just found your blog today, I don’t know what the design was like before but I really like the look of it and its pretty easy to navigate. Some are complicated but this one isn’t. Thanks for the generous giveaway. I’d be beside myself to win this. I’ve always wanted one, since I saw so many on YT wearing them but there is just no way I can afford one right now.

Remember this pretty navy strapless dress? I can change up the look in the blink of the eye with my accessories. 

Today I added a lightweight olive color sweater wrap over my shoulders and a neutral cane wristlet. 

I find the little half sweater wrap to be the perfect touch. It adds interest, extra color and a tiny bit of warmth. It comes in dozens of colors and stripes too. 

Dress and topper are on sale!🎉

Patience is a virtue… I patiently waited (and s Patience is a virtue…

I patiently waited (and stalked) the website and brick and mortar stores until I finally found these cute (and extremely comfortable) suede sandals in my size. 🎉

They’re the perfect pairing with my new Lysse New York outfit! I’m feeling like I should be going somewhere warm and fun now.

My jewelry is Melinda Maria and you can use code StacieH for 10% off your order.✨

My purse is Spartina 449. Isn’t it divine?!💗

Just say SHOP and I will send you all the outfit details, but you must be following me to receive the message (it’s an IG rule).‼️ 

P.S. I’m 5’1” and mostly wear petites, but this outfit is regular misses sizes. The pants are cropped length on most.💖

And yes, it has pockets! To be honest, the only thing I ever put in the pockets are my hands. But when a dress doesn’t have them, I don’t feel as comfortable. Anybody else feel the same?😅

One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack-It Jacket. It’s a great option, especially when I’m on the go! #ad

It has adjustable elastic to cinch in the waist, a hood when I need it in the rain (this hair is a lot of work so I have to protect it)!😅

And the best part is that it can be rolled up into its zipper pouch and tossed it into my bag so I have it when I really need it! It came in handy on my boat ride yesterday!

It comes in several different colors as well as inclusive sizing, so there’s a jacket for everyone! Oh, and it makes a great gift too!
