GIVEAWAY: a-thread-CLOSED

What better way to celebrate the middle of the week than a giveaway?! 

How I didn't discover a-thread sooner is beyond me.  It is a new online boutique that specializes in women's fashion & accessories. Their bigger vision is to grow their shop & effect program, which allows them to give back to the community and their charity partners. Not only do they have a unique and admirable vision, but they also have a fabulous range of products.

Let's start with something I love almost as much as accessories. Sweaters. Polka dots, color blocking, neon accents, and sparkle. {insert swooning here}.

one // two // three // four

Moving on to accessories.  I instantly fell in love with these two pieces while browsing their site.  They have so kindly offered to give both beautiful pieces to one lucky reader.  Oh, how I wish it were me {but seriously}.



To enter, please visit a-thread and leave a comment with your favorite item they have to offer. Please leave your email address in the comment as well! You have until Tuesday at 11:59 PM CST to enter. A winner will be chosen at random on Wednesday, August 22nd. Best of luck!

    I love the "a little sparkle" sweater! It looks comfy, but it the sparkle still dresses it up a bit. My email address is morgan.stone1@gmail.com :)

    I LOVE the rust/cream polka dot sweater. While I'm usually all about navy/cream and stripes, this is the PERFECT way to wear polka dots!
