It's time for A GIVEAWAY!!!!

Here is where I admit to you all that I dropped the ball. You see, I had every intention of doing this giveaway for Valentine's Day, mostly because I know about 50% of the people out there not only dread Valentine's Day, they actually hate it with the fiery heat of 1,000 suns. I wanted to bring everyone some potential joy surrounding VD.... But I was busy napping and talking on the phone teaching underprivileged children how to read and cleaning up the environment. (That would be my children and my environment, someone got jelly into the rug. Again.)

So, in lieu of a Valentine's Day giveaway, I am doing this giveaway in honor of my upcoming birthday. I hope you are all as excited as I am, as I selected a versatile and flattering item. This is an article of clothing which, upon wearing, could not only fool people into thinking you have class by your pulled together look, but also, you could be seriously bloated, PMSing, gassy and eat copious amounts of cake and no one would be able to tell. Plus, both Sarah (big boobs) and I (tiny boobs) tried it on and it flattered both of our figures. Winning!

DRUMROLL.....

This month of February, 2012, the Old Navy sponsored giveaway item is....... this fabulous dress:



My gal Freda from the Old Navy in Grand Junction, Colorado, is generously sponsoring this beautifully draped, chambray dress. It hits right above the knee, has a built in liner and charming embroidered detailing at the neck. It sports a sexy t-back with a two-button closure. Both Sarah and I thought that it both looked and felt more expensive than the $39.94 price tag. I am truly excited about this dress and will most likely end up buying one for myself.

I put together a couple of looks for you, featuring this versatile dress as the centerpiece.
*Every item featured in the following sets (with the exception of people, the tights and props) can be found at either http://oldnavy.gap.com/ or your local Old Navy.

 Close your eyes and picture yourself walking in sand on a warm beach, with the sound of waves lapping at your feet. You are being admired by a group of heavily muscled, slightly sweaty, shirtless rugby players because your blue dress makes you look smoking hot.


Look 1: aka Rugby players love me and I can't blame them.


Now imagine that you are strolling through your local Art District, enjoying the free wine and finger food that the galleries host once a month. You look so fabulous that people keep asking you if you are a French Fashion Model. You shove a cookie in your mouth, pucker your lips and say, "Oui".

Look 2: aka Hell Yes. I'm a Klassy Bitch. Where's the free cheese?


Now imagine that you are spending the day taking in the sights of... let's say San Francisco, because I will be there soon, doing just that..... You find a cozy spot for coffee and chocolate, followed by some time spent browsing books (alone, without children whining "I'm hungry!" or you yelling "Don't touch that!!!!"), and then a romantic walk by the water. It is so peaceful, that by the end of the day, you are sitting in warm solitude and actually finishing your thoughts, for the first time in a long time.

Look 3: aka Wow, so this is what I used to be like. I like me.


I know that you are all salivating over this lovely garment and even you three dudes that read this blog want it for your significant other or your teenage daughter. So here is what you can do to WIN:

1.) Leave a comment here (or on my facebook page).

3.) Like my facebook page (again, let me know!). Click on my fb icon on the right side of screen.

4.) Share this post through facebook, Twitter, email or your own blog (and make sure to comment and let me know!)

Peace, Love and Fashion,
Johi
