Holy Cardi Clips!

Let me begin by saying, THANK YOU!!! I knew I could count on my Glee besties! I expected 5, maybe 6 entries at most! I can't stop using exclamation points! I'm crazy exclamation point girl! 16 sets, 16 sets, I gave you one little dress, you gave me 16 sets! (I don't like Kanye either, but he was given a Glee pass, so it's ok.)

I think I'm a pretty decent stylist, but I don't have the goods to bring it (and by "goods" I mean "cash" and by "bring" I mean "own"). Without your help, I would have worn this incredibly impressive ensemble, and I would have looked like a mannequin at Macy's (no offense, Macy's). I presently have each of these pieces in my closet and this is as good as it gets (don't cry for me Argentina):

But now, thanks to my WWEPW pals, I don't have to look like Andrew McCarthy's dream girl. (Although, that would have been rad when I was 13. "He drives a Bee Em Dubba Yew!")

First off, I would like to channel Goldmember and say, "I love bowwwwwws!" I love, love, love them and you offered a plethora--bows on cardis, bows on earrings, bows on purses! Can you believe that last weekend I totally almost bought the bracelet Danielle chose in her set? (But I wanted to see what y’all came up with first.) And another thing...color me thrilled! As you can see above, I never would have thought of adding color. Yay, yellow, red and pink! Hooray!

Next, I'd like to give a shout-out to Nicolle for the awesome trench. I'm so into them right now. I would kiss Tanaka for that trench. That's love, fer real. And props to Nic for the hair fascinator.  Love!

Since there were three times as many entries as expected, I chose three Honorable Mentions that really tickled my transcripts, each of which will receive a super awesome Emma Pillsbury Birthday Party goodie bag AND party CD. The Major Prize winner not only gets a goodie bag and CD, but also one Chickadee ring of her choice! Ahh, what the heck! Everyone who participated gets a goodie bag! Yay, Challengers! WWEPWers, Hooray!

Now on to the ceremony starting with the three Honorable Mentions…

Tell me that coat isn't Audrey-worthy! Given the opportunity, I would sleep in that coat with my tassle ear-plugs and faux lashes eye mask! Her earrings were often demure studs, but her necklaces always made a statement. And I'm thinking that clutch is just big enough for a couple bills, lipstick and her runaway keys!


Most Jackie O
Melissa’s Wedding Outfit by Gemma!

Lady, if I lived in Camelot, I’d be all over this one! The little turn-collar cardigan, the sweater clips and pearls! Not to mention the sunglasses which are very O! The long sleeve cardigan is so Chanel-esque. I love it. Ready, set, jump into my closet you pretty little things!

And now, Journey mash-up, please…The Major Prize Winner is…


Most Silly Bee's Chickadee

Girl, you nailed it! Like I said before, I heart bows and the one on that little jacket is adorrrrrrrable! I love that bag and the brooch is gorgeous. You even thought of nail color! The taupe flower headpiece is very similar to one I own and have yet to wear. I never would have figured that one out! Now, if you'll exqueeze me, I have some shopping to do!

Thanks for honoring me with all your brilliant styling, WWEPWers! I just may have to pick from everyone's sets to create the ultimate ensemble! I'll share it with you as soon as I pull it all together!

Thank you again and that's how Melissa (Silly Bee's Chickadee) "Cs" it!

Everyone gets a goodie bag, the honorables get goodie bags and CDs, and the winner gets a goodie bag, CD and Chickadee ring.

P.S. -- A note about the bling, my jewelry box is so sad and all of these gems would really pep it up. I'll be contacting you for donations. Thank you.
