Sponsor Spotlight: Office Crush

By Jennie

In addition to great shops and websites, we welcome sponsors who run narrative blogs (including fictional narrartive) like our latest sponsor, Office Crush. 

It's a work of fiction, and it's interesting, funny, and reads so easily. Start from this post. I especially like the post titles. They pull you in from the first words (which is what post titles should do, but that's easier said than done, right?)

There's also a Facebook page for the blog and you can follow the writer on Twitter. (She has a non-fiction blog, too!)

Welcome, Office Crush!

Sponsor Spotlight: Valentine Studios

By Jennie

We really like finding original and lovely jewelry shops here at Style Lush, and Valentine Studios definitely fits that description. They have pieces that are trendy and contemporary yet also classic and interesting.

Eiffel Tower Necklace in Silver

Petite Gold Disc Earrings

Tiny Vintage Brass Locket

Check out the entire shop and I bet you add a few things to your holiday wish list after you do. (There's also a sister site -- Valentine Studios Art -- for artwork and original paintings, so check that out, as well.)

Happy shopping!

Sponsor Spotlight Post: Wee Hours

By Jennie

We're (happy!) to welcome a new sponsor to the Style Lush site, and it's a site I think you'll love. Wee Hours is an adorable Etsy shop, selling baby gifts, perfect for your own little boy or girl, but also perfect for shower or newborn gifts (which I always enjoy splurging on, don't you?).

Just take a look at this sweet little pillowcase dress.

A burp cloth/bib set that will become my go-to shower gift, I'm sure.

And just look a this baby security blanket (too cute)

Take a look at the site and ooh and ahh, just like we did.

Sponsor Spotlight: Once Upon a Peony

By Jennie

Welcome to our newest sponsor, Once Upon a Peony, a really adorable Etsy shop with earrings, necklaces, hair pins, and rings. Some great picks, for all our readers:

A rose gold oval necklace

A filigree ring

Hair pins

Really cute and inexpensive things, for the next birthday gift you need or just for yourself.

Check out Once Upon a Peony and happy shopping!

Sponsor Spotlight: Ann Sloane

By Jennie

I'm really thrilled and honored to share a little about our latest sponsor, Ann Sloane. This company creates handbags, messenger bags, and satchels, with a specific emphasis on bags that can be easily carried on/draped over wheelchairs.

From their about page, "We believe a change in mobility should never dictate a change in personal style – we want those who carried fancy and fabulous handbags when more mobile to have the same opportunity to do so when using a walker, wheelchair, or scooter."

I really love that statement and the sentiment behind it. Not just that, but their products are cute!

Provence design

Safari design

Passionately Paisley Design

Please check out their site, their blog, and their Facebook page. And their ad in the sidebar, as well!

Sponsor Spotlight: High Gloss Fashion

By Jennie

We're excited to welcome High Gloss Fashion to our sponsor list, a site that offers trendy clothes, jewelry, and accessories -- many of them with designer labels -- at discounted prices.

I personally want this chevron stripe scarf ($15), this three rose necklace ($15), and this striped sailor dress ($45).

 
High Gloss Fashion is also offering a 15% discount to all Style Lush readers (thanks!) through 4/30. Just enter code GET15 at check-out.

Welcome!

Sponsor Spotlight & Giveaway: Re-Zip It!

By Jennie

You might remember a post a few months ago about the recent zipper trend and we included in that post the fun Etsy store Re-Zip it!

You can find all sorts of trendy, cute, fun brooches and pins and bracelets and headbands at this shop, all with a zipper incorporated into the design.

It's really funky and different stuff, and I've thought of a few people I'd like to surprise with a gift from this store. Welcome Re-Zip It! and check them out when you get a chance.

But, for today, we have a giveaway for our readers from this shop.

The brooch you see in their ad could be yours:

Pair it with a pair of skinny jeans, a white t-shirt, and a cute leather jacket, and I think you'll look pretty damn great.

You have until 11:59 p.m. on March 24th to enter and then we'll pick a random winner. Anyone can enter, you lucky readers you!

Just tell us: do you have any fun summer trips planned this year?

Sponsor Spotlight & Giveaway: Eden Fantasys

By Jennie

Now, we love to talk shoes and jewelry and DIY projects at Style Lush, that's true, but we also think that when it comes to happiness, enjoying your partner and feeling sexy can be right at the top of the list of things to make you happy.

Enter Eden Fantasys. A shop for adult toys, lingerie, candles, and more.

Now, this is not a suitable website for perusing with your co-workers, but we support feeling good about yourself and your life, no matter what that might mean for you. 

We'd also like to welcome them as a sponsor, and we have a giveaway for our readers today. The Jimmyjane candle, a massage candle that comes in a variety of scents (from cucumber water to bourbon!).

If you'd like to have one for yourself, comment below and answer this question: when do you feel the sexiest?

This giveaway is open to anyone and everyone. And it'll stay live until 11:59 p.m. on March 22nd. Also, if you'd rather email your comment, not a problem. Send it to: stylelushblog AT gmail.com.

Style Lush Sponsor Spotlight: Clickin Moms

By Jennie

Something I love about blogging in general is realizing that just about any hobby or passion can be cultivated into something more, a side job or finding a strong community to join or just a hobby you can get better at with the help of others. Nothing is a better example than photography.

We have a new sponsor this month -- Clickin Moms -- which is an online community for (mostly) moms who love (and live and breathe) photography. The site has nearly 8,000 members, and they all share a common love for taking (stunning) pictures.

There are community forums, a blog, a site store, information about workshops and classes, and a professional group within the site for those looking for a little more privacy to share their thoughts and experiences.

If you're a photographer (or just love taking pictures!), take a look at our sponsor's new site and be inspired by all the really cool women hanging out there.

I'm really thrilled to welcome this new sponsor to the site (and sidebar!). Thanks, Clickin Moms!

Sponsor Spotlight (& Giveaway!): JLRY Designs

By Jennie

One of our new sponsors, JLRY Designs, has graciously offered to put together a nice little giveaway package for a lucky Style Lush reader. And this giveaway includes two items. TWO!

First, JLRY (who, I have to impressively mention has has been featured on the Today show!) makes really cute jewelry, which is something we're a fan of at Style Lush. I mean who isn't, though? Who says, "I hate cute jewelry?" Crazy people, that's who.

Just look at this necklace:

Or this adorable headband:

And then there are the hair pins, that I love love love:

What's not to love, right?

Well, the lucky winner of the JLRY giveaway gets the headband AND small bobby pin set of their choice. (Take a look at her store; so much to choose from!)

(Also, fine print: this contest is open to U.S & Canadian readers only!)

Comment below to be entered. And, why don't you tell us your favorite piece of JLRY Designs. We'll leave the comments open until Monday at 11:59 p.m. when we'll choose a winner randomly, to be announced next Tuesday.

Good luck!
