win a $200 beso gift card!

enter for a chance to win a $200 gift card to your favorite beso shop!

this week one of my lovely sponsors, beso.com, would like to offer you the chance to win a $200 gift card to your favorite beso shop. if aren’t familiar with the site, beso.com is an online shopping destination that allows you to browse products at thousands of stores – from big name retailers to exclusive boutiques. you can customize your search options to browse by your favorite category, brand, or store.

right now, i’ve shifted my focus towards transitional outfits as the summer winds down and fall starts creeping up. one of my favorite transitional pieces is a simple floral dress because it can be worn alone with a pair of simple sandals when the weather is hot, but it can easily be layered with key fall pieces when the weather starts to cool down.

above is a look i styled with my favorite transitional trends in mind: mango floral pleat front dress, goorin brothers bella traditional hat, j.crew infinity cardigan, fossil wagner backpack, goodhew milan wool socks, madewell suede desert booties.

to enter the contest:
-do a search on beso.com for your favorite transitional items (i.e. floral dresses, patterned tights, ankle boots, etc.)
-copy and paste the beso.com url of your results in the comments section below and tell us why it’s your favorite summer trend
-be sure to leave your email address in case you are the winner

the giveaway is open to international readers, so anyone can enter! the winner will be randomly selected to receive a $200 gift card to their favorite beso.com shop on friday, august 6 at 10am p.s.t.

zuburbia ebay roundup & giveaway!

this week, one of my lovely sponsors, zuburbia vintage, would like to tell you about their weekly ebay roundup of vintage clothing finds! mary, the creator of zuburbia vintage, discovered that lots of gals are just too busy to page through thousands of ebay listings, so she does all of the work for you! literally paging through thousands of ebay listings each week to hand-select an eclectic mix of designer and non-designer vintage clothing and accessories that catch her discerning eye for their uniqueness, their contemporary feel, or their highly collectible nature, she creates a grouping that includes items in various price ranges that appeal to all ages. the post has been become a regular feature on the style page of the huffington post, but all the email subscribers can receive an early sneak peek on mondays in addition to exclusive extra editions that aren’t published on huffington.
to get an idea of what it looks like, i created a little gallery with some of my top picks from this week’s post which featured a vintage adrian designer 1940’s blouse, a vintage 1930’s blue floral silk chiffon dress, a 1920’s black sheer lace evening dress, a 1970’s pink satin coat, and a vintage jean varon backless gown. just click here to view the listings!

like what you see? zuburbia is offering a $25 ebay gift certificate to one lucky subscriber. all you have to do is sign up for the weekly mailer and type in “calivintage” in the “how did you find us?” field to receive your entry.

when you enter your e-mail, you can choose to sign up for any one of the mailing lists to qualify. or sign up for all four, it’s up to you! zuburbia will never provide your e-mail address to a third party and you can unsubscribe at any time. winner will be announced on friday, july 23 at 10am p.s.t.
