The winners are in for the recent Coquette drawing for the book The Little Black Book of Style by Nina Garcia! Thanks to everyone for entering. I also really enjoyed reading everyone's style tip (you can read them all here). I thought I would include the tip that each winner suggested.
Here are the winners:
Amy O'Neill Houck, Takoma Park, MD
Blog: The Hook and I
Amy's Style Tip: "As a mom of two young ones, my biggest style tip lately has been, wear a belt! If I throw on jeans and a (hopefully) clean t-shirt, that's one thing, but if I take the time to choose and add a belt then I look and feel put together, and might have the wherewithal to do my hair and throw on lip gloss before dashing to the bus stop!"
Monica Dimperio of Chicago, IL
Blog: MidWasteland
Monica's Style Tip: "Even if you're dressing down, always wear great shoes!"
Jennie Lagmay of Orlando, FL
Jennie's Style Tip: "I think the best style tip would be to have good posture. Standing up straight conveys confidence and makes people look slimmer/taller. I'm 5'2, so I live by this! What good is your expensive outfit if you're slouching?"
Erin Keane of Chicago, IL
Erin's Style Tip: "Dress to impress! Wouldn't you rather be overdressed and looking fabulous when you're caught off guard by an event or person than looking like a shlub and having to cross to the other side of the street before they see you?"
Patrica Marinace of Bayville, NY
Patricia's Style Tip: "I'm going 'back to black', it's slimming, chic and easier to get dressed in the morning."
Congrats to the winners! I'll be sending the books out at the end of the week! xoxo
