ruegembon x kristenglam

And the happiest Monday is one that comes with a giveaway (obviously). I chose the Rue Gembon Daya necklace from their Atelier collection for one of you lucky ones because it's simple and would seriously go incredibly well with any outfit, no matter what your style is. You can't go wrong with a little bit of rose gold! 

Follow @ruegembon and @kristengracelam (if you aren't already) on Instagram and feel free to comment on the giveaway post here to let me know that you've entered. 

The giveaway ends in a week and I'll be announcing the winner bright and early on Monday, January 27th, 2013!

Good luck everyone!

lulu's sweater weather | marled sequins

It's another Lulu's look with this cropped marled grey sweater that's available online right now. You already know my insane obsession with grey, it's a lot more casual than black or white. I wish I could find more occasions to wear this sequin skirt, it's just too beautiful to be kept in the dark corners of my room.

Also, friendly reminder that the #LulusSweaterWeather giveaway is still going on until next Friday - and the rules? Psh, it's real easy. If you're already following me on Instagram - all you have to do is follow Lulu's on Instagram. Plus, an extra point for Gryffindor following Lulu's on Google+!

Oh, and did I forgot to mention again what you'll be winning? It'll be - not just any sweater - but your favorite sweater from Lulu's! And hey, it could totally be the sweater that I'm wearing now, but the beauty of it is...it's your choice!

Black is always a default and let's be honest - it looks good on nearly everyone. Opted for a different texture with these sequin harem pants from Lulu's and went for comfort over all with a slight heel and an oversized sweater.

This blazer, I can't get over it. The simple stripes can literally go with everything in my wardrobe. I dressed down a pretty short slip with the blazer and it's instantly everything-appropriate.

adidas NEO label | the polyvore looks

Yesterday, Colby, Melanie, Claudia, Rachel and Nicole and I had the honor of sifting through all the Polyvore entries for the adidas NEO label contest. We each chose 15 final looks to pin to our board for the runway show. I'll be joining my fellow bloggers in the front row with Selena Gomez and will also be - drumroll please - giving away 2 tickets (you and a friend!) to the show on Wednesday, February 6th 2013!

Comment below with your full name (and the full name of the person that you want to bring) and tell me why you want to go to the adidas NEO label runway show! I'll be choosing the winner and their friend on Saturday!

the holidays : nicole miller giveaway

Photos by Landon

gifted Nicole Miller dress  |  Urban Outfitters jacket  |  Zara heels

There's something about the holidays that just makes everyone go insane with accessories. I didn't feel the need to throw any jewels on top of this dress and kept it simple with my favorite pair (and most comforable) of Zara heels and a sleek leather sleeved jacket that I bought recently on a whim. The chiffon bottom and side slit makes an otherwise relatively simple dress a little bit fancier and more party-appropriate. Nicole Miller always makes it easy for everyone to style it their own way, so they're giving you a chance to win this very dress to do just that!

For a chance to win a gorgeous Nicole Miller maxi dress of your own, here's what you've gotta do!

1. Follow @NicoleMillerNYC on Twitter.

2. Follow me on Bloglovin'.

3. Tweet me at @kristengracelam with #NMHolidays and comment below with your email address and tell me what you're going to be wearing during the holidays.

I'll announce the winner on Twitter and Facebook a week from now on Wednesday, November 28th, 2012 - so fingers crossed and good luck everyone!
