Happy ❤ ❤ ❤

Love is in the air… or at least it’s at the checkout counter. The divisive holiday otherwise known as Valentines Day is fast in sight. We can get Stylish AND ethical gifts for Valentines Day on Retro Chick, fun fashion gifts under $20 on Star Fashion, funny and goofy ones on Fashion Pulse Daily, and of course you can treat yourself with some sweet and feminine perfumes on The Coveted. Produzentin has put together and amazing shopping guide, and Dramatis Personae questions the value of ‘members only sites.’  And if you’re sick of shopping… Style  Symmetry gives great tips on hosting a clothing swap.

And if that was not enough… there’s the full version of Links á la Mode here in the forums… there’s a lot of great posts there too. I will be traveling next week, so if you don’t have your place holder updated by WEDNEDSAY your risk losing your slot.

For now, we will publish only the first 20 links posted in the Links à la Mode thread. However, next week, I’ll publish the link to the thread so if you didn’t make it in the first 20.. you’ll still be able to share your lovely post!
