Outfit Post, Giveaway Results, and a Debatable Topic

Hello Girls! I hope your week is going well so far! Here lately, all I've been wearing are pretty simple outfits. So here again, is a simple look, but, hey, least I'm wearing shoes this time!! And heels no less! :)


For those of you missing my walmart white socks, do not fret, they are infact, on my feet, just hidden by the heels!

Have you girls been wearing simple looks like me, as of late? With it getting a bit colder, does that affect what you wear much? I do love to layer. I've just not been very motivated lately to be creative with my outfits. I haven't had much time to get all dolled up recently. I know for the holiday tea this Saturday I will though, and I will be sure to capture photos then!


This is another top that I like the back of.  You can't see it all that well in that photo, but it's just kind of sliced across the top back, with little peeps of my skin.  It's fun and different.

I'm also sporting a fun new lipstick that I was lucky enough to win from a giveaway that
http://jointhegossip.blogspot.com/ was having!!  It's FACE Stockholm lipstick in seduction! 

I've never actually owned a shade like this before, so it's been fun trying it out!  Not sure how well you can see the shade in these photos, but I will be sure to do an up close shot of me wearing the lipstick soon.  Thank you Leeann!  be sure to check out her blog if you haven't already!  She always has such a great post topics! 

I would also like to announce the winner of the CSN $50 gift certificate giveaway! I would also like to thank you CSN for your generosity!

Congrats Hillary!  I will be emailing you shortly for your information!  Thank you to all who entered!  I hope you enjoy the giveaways I've recently been fortunate enough to do.  I also wanted to comment a bit on the subject of giveaways.  It seem to be a popular topic for debate amongst bloggers, so I wanted to share my imput on the subject:
 
 I can see how people use giveaways in excess, and sometimes offer silly items. I, however, like giveaways for the fact that it lets me be able to give something tangable to my dedicated readers that I wouldn't normally be able to. I value my readers so much and I like that in a way I'm able to give something back to them. As for the object of the giveaway, I would only partner up with a company that I myself would shop at or enjoy, or an item that I would actually want myself. I think that if a blogger sets up guidelines for themselves and doesn't offer giveaways as just a way for self-promotion, but instead to reward their readers, they can be a fun thing to do. : )
 
What do you girls think?
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
