Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWe're not only switching up our contests this week, we're also switching up our closets!
Here at ChickAdvisor, we each have our own individual styles. And not to be overly cheesy, but that's what makes working together so much fun. While Mandy is a fan of mixing sheers, leathers and knits, I'm partial to trying out fun pattern clashing and going overboard with embellishments....

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI've never been a big watch wearer. I always felt that they were too bulky and chunky for my wrist.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basRemember the days of juice boxes, Dunkaroos and Fruit Roll Ups? If you're like me, this wasn't so much 10 years ago as it was 10 days ago. Yes, that's right. I'm an adult woman who enjoys a good juice box every now and then and I don't think there's anything wrong with that!

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThe extent of my wine knowledge comes from watching the movie Sideways and repeating phrases like 'full bouquet' and 'nutty undertones'. While I wouldn't be able to tell you the difference between a $10 and $100 bottle of wine, I do count myself as a wine fan and enjoy the occasional glass with a nice meal. Even a wine newbie like me was intrigued when I came across a perfume...
