  4. amazing picks-love them all-esp that grey corset top and fur vest-something about that striped mini calls to me too!

  5. That Sequin Tank Dress and absolutely anything by PRVCY top my list. Love. Of course, I have been obsessed with Victoria Beckham since I was 10-years-old and she was better known as Posh Spice. When I spotted her on the cover of ELLE, I was thrilled. She only gets more posh with age! :)

  20. Man oh man, Stella McCartney is my hero. It's almost impossible to find vegan products that actually look nice.

    Orient makes such beautiful watches. It'd be awesome to win one, especially one like the one in the giveaway, it'd go with everything.

    Thanks for having such an awesome blog!

    An avid rss reader,

  30. Apparently we love the same things. LOL! Fabulous post. And what a fabulous giveaway. I have been looking for a decent watch for months now. All the good ones I want I simply cannot afford. I would pair this watch with a long-sleeved button down white men's shirt and blue jeans, because it is casual and classy all at the same time. :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. I love that sequin dress! So perfect for a night out!
    That castle is just magnificent. I know I would get lost wandering around in there! Haha!

    ;)

    ReplyDelete
  69. Oh, Stella. You continue to make me drool. Those boots are so incredibly sexy!

    ReplyDelete
  70. Vegan thigh highs... I like the sound of that! Also, the watch is beautiful. I would wear it with a black turtleneck, a black boucle skirt and buckled patent flats.

    xo

    ReplyDelete
  71. The watch is perfection! It screams classy without being staid, matronly, or frumpy. How would I style it? Classic, baby: navy blue trousers, camel blazer, light blue blouse. But let's make it fun, shall we? The watch deserves it: the blouse will be ruffled, the trousers wide legged, and I plan on wearing fierce heels.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Gorgeous watch! I would love to win this for my mom! Her birthday's coming up and I'm not really making much to get her something really nice. This would be really awesome! Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  73. those stella mccartney boots are BEYOND

    ReplyDelete
  74. I love France, Miu Miu cage platforms, furs and strippes!! Adorable post!

    ReplyDelete
  75. So much prettiness! I love how decadent this all is.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Beautiful watch! I'd style my look so that the watch was the focal point - I'd wear a white drape-y tee, skinny black jeans, black boots, and an armful of bracelets along with the watch! The watch would be my statement piece :)

  78. Yummy images. Thanks for brightening up my day - I'm day dreaming of a château en France and wearing all these fabulous garments to swan around in!! XOXO

    ReplyDelete
  79. I especially love the color of the pool on the ELLE magazine cover.

    ReplyDelete
  80. those leggings with the chains are made of awesome! they'd make anyone wearing them look so fierce.

    ReplyDelete
  81. What I like about the Orient watch is that it looks solid and well-made. Also the design is very universal. xs
    PS. The castle from the Italian Vogue shoot looks amazing.

    ReplyDelete
  82. I love the picture of the castle, so beautiful. It makes me feel dreamy and imaginative just looking at it.

    ReplyDelete
  83. oooh, that Hervé Léger bustier is fab! great picks!

    ReplyDelete
  84. I love orient watches. They are always so chic and classy...i would love to own one of these!

    ReplyDelete
  85. great post ! love the sequin dress . and yeah for the watch ! love them ! so sweet you're giving it . :D

    ReplyDelete
  86. Victoria Beckham looks so amazing in zebra print. Another wonderful post, Carrie. It's very inspiring.

    ReplyDelete
  87. I LOOOOOVE the Orient watch and I believe I deserve it ( deserve may not be the right word for it...I'd REALLY REALLY LIKE IT thought :0) because I've been using a $12.00 Powder Puff Girls watch since I was 13 and it JUST broke...and now I am in need of a new time piece :0)
    Love your post- amazing fashion style.

    ReplyDelete
  88. I love that this watch has a menswear vibe. Tough yet chic enough to be on a ladies wrist.

    ReplyDelete
  89. As usual, your blog is a visual feast... so thanks for that! As for the Orient watch... well, I've been coveting this one for a while. I love the stainless steel look & that it's a mechanical watch. Since I'll be wrapping up my degree soon, and I'd love to have this watch as a special treat. :)

    ReplyDelete
  90. Wow this is a stunning watch. I love the deep blue face and the rectangular insets. A rich look. I haven't owned a watch in years, relying instead on my cell phone to tell me the time. But would take the trouble to wear this one, especially on those days when I'm wearing the uniform, tie jeans with a t-shirt. A watch like this would inject style and excitement into a blah outfir. yes? I'm not sure about dserving to win...but I suppose I could say I deserve to win just about as much as anyone else who hasn't won any of your fabulous giveaways.

    ReplyDelete
  91. I heart watches! this one is unique and quite classic looking. I'd wear it with a boyfriend blazer and skinny jeans.

    ReplyDelete
  92. i deserve to win... because i haven't won anything for a long time! :)

    love your blog! :)

    ReplyDelete
  93. Oh I would love to win this watch!!!

    I want to pair it with a very classy outfit. I think I deserve it too since I don't have a watch right now. :(

    ReplyDelete
  94. i love this watch! it's such a great everyday casual watch! i'm starting my life over from square one, after ending a 5 year relationship, switching careers, and losing everything i own. i just recently discovered this blog and truly appreciate it because it inspires me and really gets my creative juices flowing. i love fashion, so this blog makes me happy. :-) thanks carrie!

    ReplyDelete
  95. really a sharp watch, for the wife on our Hawaii trip next month that I won in a sweepstakes through Marriott last week, says she needs a whole new wardrobe, this would be a start

    ReplyDelete
  96. The watch would be great with denim or a casual dress. The color is great.

    ReplyDelete
  97. Love it all...unsure about those chain linked pants though :)
