"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."

Let's pause- For a GIVEAWAY!!

Hello beautifuls! I have finally returned to the land of the living and am well enough to get off the couch. Yes, lovelies I made it all the way to the rocking chair. At least I can sit up though. I hope none of you are ever that sick. I have basically been an incubator of viral plague since Wednesday. I went home early from work that day and had not left my couch until yesterday to drag myself to a work function that I had to attend. So unless you are highly interested in seeing how I styled sweats and a ratty t-shirt with a red nose and cough, you will understand why I do not have any outfit posts. Actually I do have Tuesday's outfit still to post so you will see that tomorrow and then I will be back up and running with the 30 for 30 challenge.

As you all may know I recently moved into a new apartment, which has left me with an insatiable desire to browse home decor websites to ogle beautiful accouterments for my pad. One of my favorites as of late are the many gorgeous computer desks that the CSN stores offer! Doesn't every hard working and fashionable blogger deserve a gorgeous space to inspire her creativity? Mais oui! And lucky for you gals, CSN thinks so, too, and is graciously offering one of my readers a $40.00 gift code to be used on whatever your little heart desires at any one of their 200 stores! Magnifique, non?

The rules to enter are pretty simple, but please feel free to ask a question if you need any help entering!! You can leave a comment, or you can always email me at lwainman321@gmail.com. I hope you will all join in the fun before midnight (ET) February 26th! I will use random.org to pick a winner and announce the winner Sunday.

To enter:
1. You must be a follower of A La Mode et Plus either through Google Friend Connect or bloglovin' and don't forget to tell me how you are following.
2. Leave a comment on this post telling me what spring trend you are most excited to try?
3. Please leave your contact info (either blog address or email address) so I will know how to reach you with your gift code if you win!
4. Note: CSN only ships to the United States and Canada, so this giveaway will only be open to my U.S and Canadian followers. Sorry international readers, but I will make it up to you soon!!

  52. Blogging tip: try to resist the urge to mimic other bloggers or what you think is the 'correct' style for your genre; developing your own style and voice not only makes your writing more enjoyable to read, it makes writing a more enjoyable pastime that feels less like work!

    All the new citrus colors coming out for spring make me swoon...I've never owned one article of clothing in orange but I'm in search of the perfect tangerine colored top now. I'm also smitten with the military style making a showing..I love the military jackets. It reminds me of high school when I insisted I needed a cargo jacket from the army/navy surplus store for Christmas one year.
