Wow, I’m still coming off the high from the first Create Couture Challenge New York Design Shop sponsored back in August!
Well, NYDS has done it again and put together another challenge for DIY and crafty bloggers out there:
The 2nd Create Couture Contest officially begins! Today marks the first day of the nomination process. Nominate your favorite blogger or DIY enthusiast by any of the following:
1. sending a tweet to @nydesignshop
2. writing on their facebook wall
3. by leaving a comment on THIS blog post, [clicky-click cuz that’s a link!] OR
4. by e-mailing them at info@newyorkdesignshop.com
You have until Monday, September 20 so think hard about who you think will make the best DIY Halloween costume. You may nominate more than one person. 15 contestants will be chosen from the nominees. All nominees will be announced on the NYDS blog. Contestants will be notified by NYDS on Tuesday, September 21, and must decide if they want to participate by Friday, September 24.

There’s no place like New York, especially during Fashion Week! So far I’ve had the privelege of attending twice, both times in February. And both times I’ve received a huge amount of promotional products and items, more than I could ever possibly use or wear.
So this time around it’s September and since I’m unable to attend, I want to share the excitement of New York Fashion Week with everyone else who’s unable to be there too. Crammed with fashion, jewelry, and accessory items I received at the last NYFW, this gift bag is a little taste of what it’s like to be there.
Here’s what’s in the FASHION GIFT BAG:
*CHAMBORD branded nail files
*Accessorize.com ribbon & locket necklace
*Accessorize.com Big Apple necklace
*Accessorize.com I Love Me necklace
*Diet Coke & the Heart Truth Heart Healthy Pin
*Maidenform blue lacy ONE FOR ALL thong (one size)
*AOL monster earbuds
*Honey Bee Soaps samples in Lavender Fields and Mango Tea
*G-Star denim rhino keychain/charm (one of his ears is ripped – not sure if that’s intentional but that’s how I received i)
*mesh organza lingerie bag
TOTAL VALUE: $60, not counting soap samples

And so sorry…I’m a very, very bad blogger since I overlooked sharing this…
There’s still tomorrow, if you can squeeze in a trip to Old Navy! I’ve got my eye on the Rockstar Super Skinny Denim Leggings ($29.63 with coupon), the Weekend Jeans ($11.22 with coupon), and The Flirt Flared Jean ($18.75 with coupon).
You can also
access the coupon online here if you’d like to print it out. (Though the coupon is only valid in-store.)
Maybe pick yourself up some new denim just for Fall? Sorry for not posting sooner! At least there’s still one day left…
