LOFT Blog Wars & Gift Card Giveaway!

Holiday time is my favorite time of the year. I love scurrying from store to store, playing Santa and getting the must-haves on everyone's list. I'm a present-wrapping superstar; if there were levels, I'd be a third degree black belt. And the holiday specials at Starbucks (Caramel Brulee Latte, Eggnogg Latte and Peppermint Mocha are my faves!) make the season even sweeter.

But throwing together last-minute ensembles for holiday shindigs? That's when my inner Scrooge comes out. Here's the problem - and you can probably relate. You hate everything in your closet; it either doesn't fit properly, or it's not festive enough for the party's dress code. On the other hand, there's a recession going on and you can't justify buying an entire outfit for one holiday get-together. Makes you wanna say "bah humbug" and just RSVP with regrets.

Luckily, LOFT is here to rescue you from holiday fashion disaster.

In case you haven't heard, Ann Taylor Loft is now LOFT. They've re-named and re-branded the company, and upped the style ante. And one of the many great things about LOFT that I love is that they've got petites! Can I get a hallelujah, shorties?

Anyway, LOFT has some amazing pieces that you can pair with something already in your closet - to create a chic, festive outfit without breaking the bank. For example, pair this Sequin Sparkle Tank with a pair of jean or black pants and layer a blazer or cardigan on top. This Sequin Scarf is only $29.50 and will jazz up just about anything in your wardrobe. What about that go-to little black dress your friends have seen you wear countless times? Take that dress from wah-wah-wah to wow with one of LOFT's statement necklaces. My favorite is the Clear Gem Bib Necklace with Black Chain - I can think of 10 "new" outfits I could create with this accessory alone!

To celebrate their new name and image, LOFT is having a contest called Blog Wars. Starting today at 4pm, visit LOFT's Facebook fan page (here's the link to the actual poll), and vote for your favorite blog (hint: your favorite blog is Spoiled Pretty). On Friday afternoon, the blogger with the most votes wins a $500 LOFT gift card. Child, you know mama loves to shop...so help me out here!

To get you motivated, I'm doing a giveaway too! Go to LOFT's website and find a festive holiday item. Then come back here and tell me (in the comments) how you'd pair that item with something already in your closet to create a holiday party ensemble. On Friday evening, I'll award one of the commenters with a $100 LOFT gift card!

Okay, so remember to become a Facebook Fan of LOFT...then vote for Spoiled Pretty. Tell your friends to do the same. It's war, people...and I came to win. Help a blogger, won't cha?
