I was so excited last week to be invited to the launch party for Club Monaco on Shopbop.com ^[1]!  If you don’t know Shopbop already, you should probably consider yourself lucky — it’s the kind of website that you can’t visit without spending money.  Full of an impeccable selection of designers and great, trendy pics — now with Club Monaco as an amazing addition!

The party had a quick photo area, complete with a rack of Club Monaco jackets for bloggers to throw on for the photos!  I loved this camel blazer, which I threw on over the top from this outfit ^[2] to bring it into October (almost November) weather! 

The gift bag for this event contained a $25 gift certificate to Shopbop, and I thought I’d pass it on to you guys!  Leave a comment below for a chance to win, and I’ll pick the winner on Monday!

Also, I did something really fun this weekend — I shot a guest post for the Elie Tahari blog ^[3]!  I picked out a bunch of their beautiful clothes last week — cannot wait to show you guys!  And don’t forget to take a look at the banner in my sidebar this week — for those of you in NYC, stop by their sample sale through October 23rd!  (Yes, remember the days pre-Gilt when there were real brick-and-mortar sample sales?  Where you could actually get amazing deals?) You might even see me there!

The gift bag also contained a $25 gift certificate to Club Monaco, which — sorry, guys — I am keeping!
