One of my favorites is the multi-colored chevron nail seen here. Whenever I wear Jamberry Nails, I get compliments practically everywhere I go and from the most stylish people I know. They’re such a fun nail accessory!

Shade Clothing Christmas Giveaway!

This contest is now closed.

By Sarah Ward

I always love those magazine features where one piece is worn several different ways.  As part of their 12 Days of Giveaways, Shade Clothing sent us the Shirred Floral Skirt to review for a giveaway and we happily explored a variety of ways that this skirt can be worn!

Paired with this lemon hued collared shirt, this Shade skirt has a professional feel with a fun flair.

They call me mellow yellow

They call me mellow yellow

Shirt: RW&Co. Shoes: Walmart. Watch: Timex.

Paired with this delicate dusty rose V-neck 3/4 sleeve shirt, the ensemble takes on a decidedly feminine feel.

If you're feeling feminine, try this.
Pretty in pink.

Shirt: SmartSet. Shoes: PayLess Shoes.

Paired with a brown V-neck shirt and knee-high boots, you get a more sporty feel.

Brown

Sorry... I'm out of clever color comments.

Shirt: Jacob. Shoes: Claire. Necklace: Family Heirloom.

And if it’s cold outside, don a brown bomber jacket.

40-shade-christmas-giveaway-jacket

Jacket: Target.

Recommendations for wearing the Shirred Floral Skirt from Shade Clothing:

  1. Tuck your shirt in and play up the waist.
  2. Pull out colors from the pattern and match other pieces and accessories in your ensemble.  You’ll notice we pulled yellow, brown and a dusty rose color from the pattern in our pieces.
  3. This piece is great if you have a short waist.
  4. This piece is great if you have fuller hips and thighs — the skirt conceals a multitude of sins, my dears.
  5. This piece is great if you have fab legs you want to show off.  Work  it, girl.

Shade Clothing Review and Giveaway!

THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED.

If you haven’t seen Shade Clothing’s fall collection, then you are in for a treat!  Shade really steps out of their comfort zone and brings some fabulous new looks.  One of my favorite pieces from their new collection is the plaid tunic which Shade sent me to review.

Shade Clothing Plaid Tunic

Shade Clothing Plaid Tunic

Can I tell you I’ve gotten several compliments wearing this top?  As you know, plaid is totally in this season.  So far I’ve paired Shade Clothing’s plaid tunic with a black belt and matching leggings, layered under a brown jacket, brown belt and skinny jeans (as pictured above) and with my black yoga pants on a flight to Seattle.

As a side note, this shirt fits larger so it may be wise to go a size down.  Give yourself a little time to iron, too, after it comes out of the wash.

In commemoration of Shade Clothing’s 5th Anniversary, they are offering 40% off everything online and in store, including their new fabulous fall line from October 15-19, 2009!  If there’s something you’ve been eyeballing, now is the time to take advantage of these great discounts.

Shade Clothing has also generously donated a $20 gift certificate to one lucky Cable Car Couture reader!  To enter is simple:

  1. Check out www.shadeclothing.com and leave a comment about what you would use the gift certificate towards!
  2. Follow @shadeclothing and @cablecarcouture on Twitter!
  3. Become a fan of Shade Clothing and Cable Car Couture on Facebook!
  4. Share the giveaway on Twitter or Facebook!

The contest ends Wednesday, October 21, 2009! May the best woman win!

Blog Disclosure: I received free product for writing a review for Shade Clothing.  We honestly love this tunic shirt.
