100 Years of Fashion

I came across this 100 second film shot in East London, celebrating 100 years of fashion with 100s of outfits.  Even though we're not celebrating 100 years yet, but 2 years is a very important milestone for us.  In these two years, we're so grateful for the support of our friends and families, and most importantly, our customers.  We can't emphasize enough how thankful we are.  So here again, THANK YOU!  And don't forget to enter our $100 giveaway.  Today is the last day to enter.

Happy Friday and enjoy the video!

Spotted: Good Life for less + Opal Clutch

I am extremely fascinated with the fashionable talents that Jill has displayed by creating multiple outfits with just a single clutch.  She was able to match Mar Y Sol's opal clutch with 3different outfits, each for a different occasion.  I have to say, I love every one of them.  Here is a more detailed look at her three inspirational outfits.

OUTFIT 1:  A casual outing or even a date night in the city.  This outfit is casual enough for a quick brunch with your BFFs in the city, but with that cowl neck top and cream color wide waist belt are definitely calling out for a romantic date night with your significant other.

 

OUTFIT 2:  Spontaneous and live to inspire!  This outfit, Jill describes it, "it was like the perfect trifecta of pre-planning, spur of the moment inspiration and unbridled carelessness."  

 

OUTFIT 3:  Ready for party anytime!  Party in the house.  Party on the street.  Party in the club!  Party in this virtual world!!!  

Which one is your favorite?

Who is Jill?  She's the author behind Good life for less blog, Good tots and 100 Inspirations.  She's a stylish stay-at-home mom who's not afraid to use colors and shapes in her wardrobe and yet comfortable enough to wear while having fun with her two young children.  Talk about her children, her daughter, Abigail, is super cute(check her out in this video while her mom showcasing her scarves tutorial).

I want to send out our sincere “Thanks” to Jill for featuring us.  I can't wait to read more of her styles.  I wish everyone a happy Friday and a fun-filled weekend!
