Giveaway! Slammin' Outfit From DownEast Basics!
I have recently been blessed to wear one of the most chic happy outfits that I think I have ever worn. Really. I like it that much.
DownEast Basics hooked me up with this lovely ensemble for the Type-A Mom conference…


Turning Colors Skirt with the Bleaker Street Blazer, Wonder Tee, and an amazingly beautiful necklace that seems to be missing from the website (sniff sniff).
Incidentally, they also threw in this very hip Metro Messenger Bag, that I happen to use for my laptop (I got it in green)…

Ya’ll, this giveaway is just so fantastic I can hardly stand it!!!
The same slammin’ outfit that I wore can be yours!
(in your own size, of course!)
I know – incredible, right? Here’s what you have to do to enter:
- Visit DownEast Basics and tell me your favorite item from their store (it’s going to be very hard to choose!)
- Extra entry #1: Leave a comment telling me what you would like to learn from a blogging conference (not random – I’m planning a Christian one!)
- Extra entry #2: Post, Tweet, Facebook this giveaway
Contest will be open until Wednesday, October 14 at 9pm EST.
If you are inclined to purchase something from DownEast Basics (you should, you really really should, because, I heart them), get free shipping by using promo code: sarahmae (good through 10/8)
Hope you win! :)

my favorite would have to be the wildflower skirt. It is just LOVELY and could be paired iwth a simple tank to make it causual or dressed up with boots and a fitted top to look nice for an evening out!
I AM so excited your planning a Christian conference. Can you have one in South AFrica??? You know, its LOVELY here. :)
I think the biggest thing I'd like to learn is really just more truth from the Bible that as a women, I am ok. I try so much in my writing to be open and vulnerable and sometimes I wonder should I? So maybe, just having sessions on what is appropriate to share for what type of blog you have. Also, maybe some resources to use when writing. Or how to engage readers and keep them encouraged and motivated about their own lives while being true to your own.
It would be good to have like "partners" be formed. This would allow you to connect closer with one-3 other women and share the goal of your blog, and your heart with them. Afterwards, these women could then be a good little inner circle of guidance and support….
LOVE the bleaker street blazer! So cute in green!
I'd love to see advertising techniques–How to get your words out there and seen–at a blogging conference. :)
blogged it here! http://growingupainsley.blogspot.com/2009/10/anot…
I am in love with the Serendipity Dress – so pretty.

I adore the curtsy coat! It's so great and fall is a lovely time!
Just want to say I LOVE Downeast Basics. I hope they never go out of business. The tees and camis, in particular, are indispensible! So many colors and long lengths – including sleeves – can’t get enough of them. I like all the tees, long sleeve, 3/4 sleeve, 1/2 sleeve, tank tops, lacey tees, etc.
I like colors that flatter fair skin – not wash it out.
From a blog, I would like to hear people's satisfaction about modest clothing and how hip it can be. And maybe even how modesty is influencing people around us for good.
I love the Tuxedo Top. Both my mom and sister have it and I have been wanting one for myself!

From a conference, I would like to hear more about how to balance it all better. I really struggle with trying to find balance between my online and offline lives.
.-= Nicole @ Being Frugal Is Fabulous´s last blog post … Be Back Soon =-.
I love the Hot to Trot, and the fall in love skirt. I really like EVERYthing from Downeast :-)
I would love to know different ways to make my blog better, and how to have more traffic through my food blog.
WOA! I found a new store! I want ALL the skirts, but if I had to choose, it'd me the Cream & Sugar Skirt! http://www.downeastbasics.com/fallinloveskirt-2-1…

I'm a bit ashamed to admit this, but I've never been to a blogging conference. I wouldn't know WHAT to ask!

My favorite is the Bleaker Street Blazer. Thanks for the giveaway!

Seriously a Christian Blogging conference? Hmm…now that I might actively consider trying to get sponsors for. A question I would ask is How do you convert occasional visitors to loyal blog readers?

First of all, love your blog! And LOVE Down East Basics!! The prices are incredible…my two favorite items are the Bleaker Street Blazer (where I live, it would be PERFECT!) and the other is the On the Dot Top! Super cute clothes!!
As far as a blog conference, one where we, as women, can help our husbands by trying to save money in easy ways. I think, in our culture and the tough times we are all facing…we could all benefit from tips on how to save money! And to be organized doing it!!
I love everything but I think the darling dot skirt and butterfly cardigan would look so cute on my daughter. That messenger bag rocks!!!! Great contest!!!
I really like alot of their clothes, but I must say the Curtsy Coat is a great looking style!
I like the curtsy coat. Hope I win!

What I want to learn at a blog conference: how to improve my writing, and maybe how to turn blog entries into a book.
.-= katy´s last blog post … What kind of stereotype mom are you? =-.
I'm loving those skirts! The length is so cute with boots. It's a toss up between Feelin' Fall and Turning Colors. So hard to choose! And a great giveaway…thanks! :-)
.-= Mariah ´s last blog post … The Signs of Fall….. =-.
Oh yeah..also…at a conference I would love to learn about blogging in general. I'm fairly new to the blogging world and I want my blog to glorify God, be relevant and interesting and an outlet for my creative writing. I know that's not a very specific statement…so…specifically, I'd like to learn how to attract traffic.
.-= Mariah´s last blog post … The Signs of Fall….. =-.
I tweeted this post. Thanks for the chance.
