{ another LBD } + a giveaway!

{ another LBD } + a giveaway!

i've been all about the classics lately ~ in the past week, i've worn two denim + striped top combinations, and today marks my second little-black-dress-based ensemble in the same amount of time.



the fact is, a simple shift is the perfect solution when one needs to stay chic despite the completely blistering heat. just add minimal jewels (it's really too hot for serious accessories, so i just went for earrings here), plus a killer pair of kicks and a cute clutch:



the best thing about this outfit is that i get to share a piece of it with you!! ellington handbags (a new sponsor of this site), is generously giving away this pretty clutch (in either blue, red or black) to one lucky reader. to enter, just 'like' ellington on facebook, then leave them a comment letting them know which color you want. a winner will be selected next week!
