Sunday Style & DownEast Basics Giveaway


Skirt: c/o DownEast Basics, Lace Top: Kohls (similar), Cardigan: Target, Shoes: Kohls


Oh, you don't walk down deserted country streets in painful high heels?  Weird, I thought that was normal.  Hmmm...either way, how adorable is this skirt?!  I love the combination of polka dots and bows.  It makes me feel so girly!  DownEast Basics is one of my absolute favorite places to shop, because of their great selection of modest clothing.  I love that I can feel comfortable in what I am wearing and still feel cute! 

Since all of you lovely readers are already here to check out (and hopefully link up to) Sunday Style, I thought it would be super fun to also have a giveaway.  And this one is GOOD.  One of you lucky ducks is going to win an item of your choice from DownEast Basics!  The giveaway is only open to those with a U.S. address and will be open until September 29th.  Just make sure to enter using the Rafflecopter widget below.

Now, on to the party! Let's see those cute, dressy outfits of yours! Here are the 3 simple rules:

1. Link up to a specific outfit post, not your main blog page.
2. Grab a button and add it to your post (a text link is also fine).
3. Comment on this post and at least one other post...the whole point is to visit each other!

    I have shoes that look just like that. I bought mine at bells outlet. I have yet to wear them. I cant wear them to church because I know someone would tell they were 'inappropriate'.

    You look amazing, by the way!
