The One Year Anniversary of “The Bella Styles Blog” and Giveaway

May8

I must first start off by saying “Happy Mother’s Day” to all the mothers of the world today. I am truly blessed to be a Mother to a wonderful son and I am so thankful for that. But I also just realized that I’m thankful for another baby of mine, my blog. Wow, it hit me during the middle of the night last night that I started this blog just a year ago this month. My how time flies. I am truly blessed and honored to have accomplished so much in just 12 short months with an official blog. Now mind you I guess that you can say that I’ve always been a blogger since my Myspace and Skorch days but I didn’t officially start with “The Bella Styles Blog” until May 8th of last year. So with that I say thank you to all of my readers and supporters who have gotten me to over 167,000 hits thus far. It is truly appreciated. To show how much I truly appreciate all of my readers and fans, I’m doing a one-year blog anniversary giveaway.

That’s right, one lucky reader will receive a personal styling makeover courtesy of me. You will get the full package, personal shopping, styling, wardrobe and photoshoot. (More gifts and perks to be added soon to the package too). All you have to do is submit a short essay on how “The Bella Styles Blog” has inspired you and what ensembles, tips or ideas have you gotten from being a dedicated reader. (If you have any pics of you in any outfits that you have seen me in and that you also purchased them too, submit those pics along with your essay). So chop, chop, the deadline is May 31st and the winner will be announced soon afterwards. Please email all essays and pics to admin@bellastyles.net. Good luck ladies!!!

Here are some of my personal fave looks from the past year:

Great news to my readers. I will be doing another weekly outfit giveaway for the next 3 weeks courtesy of “Just My Size”.

I have been blogging about the nautical look and stripes being popular this season so here’s your chance to get hooked up for free. The military trend is another favorite of mine so I’m including an ensemble from that trend as well. Lastly, what woman can go without a “little black dress”? Well here’s your chance to own one of these 3 outfits. All you have to do is sign up for my blog email subscription and I will choose one lucky lady from my email list as a winner for the next 3 weeks.

The Perfect LBD

Wear to work, to church or a special night out, this Little Black Dress is as versatile as it is stylish.  Ruched v-neck design, feminine flutter sleeves and sleek silhouette make this dress a must-have for Spring!

Crisp nautical stripes will be all the rage this Spring, and what better way to show off your style than this split neck tee in navy/white stripe paired with classic fit jeans that can be rolled up just so!

OOTD: “Black Friday Shopping in Just My Size”

Nov26

If you follow me on Twitter then you already know that I’ve been up since 3am out shopping for Black Friday. If you’re familiar with Black Friday is, then you already know about the crowds and hustle and bustle that you must go thru. So I figured that I wanna be comfortable while shopping. So I did a two for one. Since I’m doing a weekly “Just My Size” holiday outfit giveaway, I figured that I’d wear one of the featured outfits to show my readers what they’ll be getting. JMS sent this to me this week and it was perfect timing for today. I wore the black leggings and grey shirt from their Evolution line. Ladies you will love this outfit for those laid back days where you just wanna be comfy and free. Of course while I was in Wal-Mart this morning I stopped by the “Just My Size” section to take a look at what new pieces were in store. So I snapped these pics while there. Hey, gotta promote promote right? Lol….So ladies if you haven’t already, sign up for my email subscription to the right of this page as I will be selecting the first weekly winner for the contest within the next 24 hours! More info here:  “The Just My Size & Bella Styles Holiday Giveaway”


To show how versatile this outfit is, Here I paired it with a cardigan and trendy belt:
