Staying Chic in the Rain

Cup of Jo

Okay, so we know that this gal looks impossibly chic in her trench coat because she has this cool laid back (but probably took an hour) top bun, stunning heels and a sunny day. Meanwhile, we are working with a steady rainfall, humidity and puddles the size of the Crowne pools. However, trenches can still be a great style statement on a rainy day like today. Think about grabbing one if you haven't already done so - they can really spiff up those rain boots you're walking around in. We've always dreamed of a Burberry trench, but if you can't afford one, how about this alternative from Target? Still stylish, but only about $1350 cheaper.

Mind Reading

It's like someone was channeling Chic Deac's brain waves this week on the personalized wine bottle memo. Love these and want these, many props to Cup of Jo for sharing!

Thanks Jo

You made blogging so easy for us this morning! We missed these Penguin Classic Book Covers on Cup of Jo yesterday, but they certainly brightened up our morning. We want. We want. We want. 

Secret Garden is our Favorite design, but we've always been an Austenite. Maybe we'll just get the whole collection. Happy reading, chic ones!

That Jo!

She always finds something lovely. Check out this dress that she is giving away to a lucky reader today! With some dangly gold earrings, you'd be a chic fashion goddess. 

Happy shopping, chic ones!

First Rule of Blogging

They say the first rule of blogging is shameless self-promotion. We aren't really on that bandwagon - especially since Cup of Jo exists and thus we must promote what she writes about, because she always writes about fabulous things. 


Today, she is doing a giveaway and it's a dress that fits perfectly on our site. So visit Cup of Jo and enter to win the dress because we don't have a $300 dress to give away this week and she does. 

Also, she loves Jackie O almost as much as Chic Deac. Beneath the giveaway, check out the post on portraits of famous mothers with their children. It's lovely. 

And lastly, please check out this blog - "What White Chicks Cherish" has got some pretty funny stuff (like overdressing for college football games) so thank you to the reader who sent it in!


Happy Homecoming, chic ones!
