Good news (for me) and giveaway info!

My boyfriend finally has a job!

After being unemployed for six months after graduating from college, Rian finally got a job at my mom's company. He will basically be sitting in front of a computer all day, but hey, he'll be making more money than me! I'm so relieved. The past six months have been financially horrid for me (and that's in addition to my sporadic designer shopping sprees). So it is a huge relief that he is going to be making good money. I can finally sit back and relax for a while.

It is kind of weird that he'll be working with my mom...but whatever. Hahaha.

I also wanted to let you know about some giveaways I have recently discovered:

Jane from Little Violet Dress is giving one lucky reader a sash she made. It is beautiful and I really hope you check out Jane's blog because she is lovely!

Savvy Mode is giving away a gorgeous black and white clutch. This is a really cool fashion blog that keeps me up to speed on designer items out there.

Robin from Threadbear Thoughts is giving away a fun (and adorable) pineapple necklace. She showcases cheap fashion finds on her blog, which I think is pretty much a lifesaver for us all right now.

We Were Damsels is giving away a stunning suede skirt to a lucky reader. These girls have unique and downright awesome fashion sense, so definitely check out their blog.

HiFashion is giving away a gorgeous Moyna handbag. This blog is super cute and a fun read.

If I left anyone out, I apologize immensely.

Good luck to everyone who enters. (And wish me luck too! LOL).
