Ray-Ban Wayfarer Giveaway

actual gift on board

This lovely pair of tortoiseshell Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses is the centerpiece of my second giveaway package. As you know from the first giveaway, these prizes were given to me by a mystery company that is relaunching its brand on August 15th with Australian indie rock band Strange Talk. Also included is a colorful scarf and an American Apparel crop top in hot pink.

I partnered up with Jeff from The MidweStyle to help me promote this giveaway. He and I are wearing the pair of sunglasses I get to keep. Don’t worry, the winner will receive an identical brand new, untouched pair. Obviously I was inspired by the mystery company’s obsession with color, hence my obnoxiously colorful ensemble. Jeff was inspired by color as well, but since he’s a guy his palette is a little more muted.

EvaLotta of Hi Styley

EvaLotta Hi Styley
The person I was most excited to meet during my recent trip to Los Angeles to the Gap design studio was EvaLotta of the LA street-style blog, Hi Styley. I’ve been reading Hi Styley for a few years now. We first started tweeting at each other after both collaborating with JBrand for the JWorld launch. It was actually through Twitter that we realized that the both of us had been invited to stay at the Mondrian Hotel in West Hollywood for the Gap collaboration.
EvaLotta and I spent all evening dishing about street-style, the rise of bloggers as a formidable force in the fashion industry, and what a great honor it was to attend Vogue’s presentation at the Gap. EvaLotta is the proud mother of two children, who are now pros themselves at spotting fashionable people. She told me that now that her kids are older, they point at stylish people and yell “Hi Styley!” How cute is that!! If I ever have or adopt kids, it will be my proudest moment as a parent when my progeny begins to help me street-style hunt.
Follow EvaLotta on Twitter, @HiStyley.
