T-Shirt Teespring Crowdfunding

T-Shirt Teespring Crowdfunding

Teespring is a t-shirt crowdfunding platform for groups, causes and communities to design and sell custom apparel. It is a pretty cools concept. Anyone can come and design a shirt which they can then sell via Facebook, Twitter or anywhere else online. The seller keeps all of the profit the shirt earns. People use Teespring as a fundraising tool or just to earn some extra money. Turn your t-shirt concept into reality with no upfront costs. Once you finish your design, your buyers fund the creation of your t-shirts by promising to buy them if you meet your goal. If you do not meet your goal within the time period you specified, then the buys will not be billed. The shirts don’t print and ship until a set end date determined by the seller. This means they pay nothing upfront, take no risk and don’t have to deal with the hassle of ordering the right number of shirts.He Leans So Well

Orange is the New Black…Blazer

Orange is the New Black Blazer

When you think fall, normally the first color that comes to mind is black. Get black out of your head and start thinking, Orange is the New Black! Black blazers have been in style for a while now and yours is probably worn out from wearing it too much. Instead of choosing a black blazer, opt for an orange blazer instead. As you can see, orange works with several colors including navy, white, and yellow. I would also suggest pairing it with khaki, slate gray, jeans, almost any blue, and camo print. Camo print is huge for fall, and you will be a trendista in camo jeans and an orange blazer. I recently wore a fall transition outfit comprised of an orange halter turtleneck dress with a camo bag. It was complimented to the hilt.

I am a member of Everywhere Society and they provided compensation for this post. As always, all opinions are my own.

Macy’s presents Fall’s Five Essentials-key pieces that say fall 2013! Annie aka The Fashion Poet showed the audience 5 fall essentials that will update your wardrobe for fall. It was a great day as I got to hang out with my friend, Jen aka The Rebel Chick. She’s awesome, but I rarely get to see her in person. So glad we got to watch the show together! 🙂 I got my hair done after the show from the mini Blo Bar set up by Macy’s. Check out the difference in hair below.

Spicy Fall Color: Paprika

Fall Outfit of the Day with Camo and Fall Color Paprika styled by April Erhard, Editor in Chief of April Golightly

After reading InStyle’s Color Crash Course in the October 2013 issue, I was dying to put together paprika outfits. InStyle’s editor pointed out that orange is an attention getting color. You should expect to be noticed in paprika. When everyone is wearing neutrals and black this fall, stand out with a spice of paprika. I found this Michael Kors dress at Encore Plus in Boca Raton, Florida. Encore Plus was nice enough to let me borrow it to wear to Tastemakers this week. The paprika and camo combination was a big hit at Tastemakers. This Michael Kors dress is perfect for fall in Florida and fall transition outfits. Hit up Encore Plus to see if it is still available. I just dropped it off today so it might still be there!
