Talbots vest and cashmere sweater c/o / Veronica Beard skinny jeans / Hunter boots / over the knee socks / Sunglasses (sold out; similar here for only $60)
As January draws to an end, I have one final GIVEAWAY for my loyal followers. I’ve had so much fun celebrating my 4th blog anniversary and birthday during the entire month of January. Today I’m giving away a $500 gift certificate to Talbots to one lucky winner. And I am announcing 4 winners of recent promotions on the blog today. Be sure to read all the way to the bottom for a big surprise!
WINNER ANNOUNCEMENTS: Congratulations to the following winners! CINDY CHENOWETH won the $500 gift certificate to Julie Vos, CHERYL TUCKER won the GiGi NY bag, KAREN FAULK won the $250 gift certificate to Colleen Rothschild beauty and RUTH MUTCH won the Julie Vos jewelry set!
Not gonna lie, these sporadic giveaways throughout the month have been really fun and bring me lots of happiness. I hope you have enjoyed them. I’ve learned so much about you through the comments you leave. Thank you to each and every one of you for your support, not just on giveaway days but for being here every day. I truly appreciate it! 🙂
I’ve had this outfit for a while but wanted to end the month of January to feature it. This Talbots vest and cashmere sweater are on repeat for me on mild winter days. I like the cashmere sweater so much that I own it in red and purple as well. I paired it with my Veronica Beard Brook skinny jeans.I love the fit of these jeans because they don’t loosen up and start scooting down throughout the day. They fit true to size and they are a dark blue (even though they kind of look black in these pictures). And you already know that I am a big fan of Hunter Boots. I wear them with these over the knee socks (white is currently sold out) for warmth on cold days. Hunter Boots is currently having a winter sale with some styles 50% OFF. Click here to check it out.
GIVEAWAY: One lucky reader will WIN a $500 gift certificate to Talbots! Today’s giveaway will be a reader survey and you will leave your answer in the comment section. I want this blog to be relevant and helpful to everyone reading it. Please tell me what you would like to see more of on the blog? Beauty (products, reviews, treatments), Fashion (posts like this one where I link all the products), Travel (destinations including itineraries, packing lists), Lifestyle (vitamins, food, life choices), Wedding (planning, selections, tips). Please be honest and leave as many suggestions and details as you wish.
I’m thinking about continuing the sporadic giveaways throughout the year. Would you like that? xoxo – Tanya

I would love to see more beauty tried and true beauty products. Your blog is perfection so do not know what to add except I am a petite lady and would love to see something to do with petite ladies. Love the blog and have gotten several friends onto it. Dawne Wright
I love to see your travel pieces!
Fashion, beauty, and travel are my favorites in that order. Enjoy the wedding posts, too, because I’m a boy boy and probably won’t ever get the opportunity to help plan one. Oh, I’m a former Dallas area resident currently living in a suburb of NYC so like seeing all of your photos.

All of your posts are inspiring, beautiful, and informative – but I find the “slice of life” lifestyle posts the most interesting for me personally. As readers, we yearn to feel closer to the social media mavens and maestros to whom we gravitate. I love it when we see you out with Pete or meetings and whatnot.
