Avon Calling!

One of my goals for ConstantlyAlice this year was to build it into a "lifestyle" that incorporated all of my passions, instead of just being about selling in my etsy shop.  I want to share a way of life, not just a brand.

So, along those lines, in addition to my posts on creating, vintage and literature, I will be adding one of my favorite product lines to my offerings..I'm now an Avon lady ;)

Avon is one of my favorite brands, mostly because of the vintage appeal, but also because they provide excellent quality items at great prices.

My plan is to add posts to the blog that review Avon products, give step by step tutorials on creating different looks (with a focus on vintage style) and eventually to create a youtube channel where I can share videos of how to use different products with you.

I'm so excited to be sharing this new addition to ConstantlyAlice with you!  You can find the ConstantlyAlice Avon shop here.  Stay tuned for my first product giveaway!

Outfit Post - Gatsby Girl

This dress is SOOO easy to wear and accessorize.  It has two giant pockets and zips right up the front.  I can wear it as a jumper over a blouse, or a dress, like I've done here.  Add a vintage collar, some pearls and a cute hat and it suddenly has a flapper-like feel to it.  The best part...it cost me $2 ;)

If you haven't entered the ConstantlyAlice giveaway, time is running out!  Only three days left!

Hugs and Smooches,

The "So Nice I Bought It Twice" Giveaway!!

Let me begin by saying, I love Vogue patterns (and I love Joann Fabric for their Vogue Pattern discounts!)  I was at Joann's over the labor day weekend stocking up on patterns for my fall sewing when I came across this lovely gem..

Isn't it fantastic?  It's a Donna Karan and I'm just adoring this color plum for the fall!  Well..as it turns out, when I got home and added it to my stash, I noticed that I had purchased it already!  I guess I REALLY loved it ;)  But my forgetfulness is your gain!  I am going to give away this lovely, uncut, size xsm, sm, med pattern to one lucky winner.  (Even better, the pattern skill level is listed as "Easy", so you can even give it a whirl if you're a beginning sewer.  And it flatters every shape!)  Here are the contest entry details:

• Head on over to the etsy shop at ConstantlyAlice and favorite an item of your choice.
• Share the item on facebook or twitter, or share this blog post on your own blog.
• Come back and leave me a comment letting me know you've done this and voila!  You're entered!
• If you'd like multiple entries, do two or more of the items listed and leave me a comment for each one (ie, "I posted on FB!"  "I tweeted my favorite!")

The winner will be chosen on 9/16/11.  Good luck!

Hugs and Smooches,
