The gals over at Sensibly Styled are hosting a giveaway from DownEast Basics.  And yes, I entered to win!  I created an outfit around the Longitude Cardigan, one that I would love to own for spring.  All outfits have been posted on the Sensibly Styled website {one of my favorite modest clothing blogs, btw}, and readers get to vote for their favorites.  Head over here to check out all the outfits and here to vote.  I appreciate any support from my readers, but there are so many adorable outfits, I encourage you to vote for the one that's really your favorite.

Here's mine:


Clockwise from top left:

Amethyst geode silk top, $38.99, Ruche {link}
Longitude Cardigan, $34.99, DownEast Basics {link}
Curtain call tabbed purse in red, $39.99, Ruche {link}
Handmade golden leaf necklace, $44, Ruche {link}
Hasina orange beaded bracelet, $16.99, Ruche {link}
Pink Studio oxford pumps, $49.99, Ruche {link}
Long & lean jeans, $69.50, Gap {link}

As you can see, I relied heavily on Ruche, mostly because I totally love their style, but partly because if I had looked all over the Internet for my absolute favorite combination of clothes, I think my head would have exploded.  The whole outfit really adds up to much more than I would ever advise spending on one outfit {almost $300 -- yikes!}, but since I was going more for aesthetically pleasing than affordable, I let it slide.  Stay tuned, I'll post a similar outfit for less later today.
