As promised, here is my giveaway with Jeffrey Campbell courtesy of Solestruck! This is my very first giveaway which may explain why it feels a little out of character, but I thought it’d be a really nice way to show some love back to you all. To enter, comment here with which of these 2 you’re entering to win (or if you don’t have a preference, just say so). Make sure to leave your email address in the comment form (which will not appear in the body of the comment, and I won’t sell it or spam you – promise) so I can contact you if you win.

The black (Mary Roks) shoes are a size 9, though I’m an 8 and could fit them with a pair of thick socks. The grey (Raquel) shoes are a size 7 and may also give or take a half-size.

Really sorry I don’t have more sizes but of course you’re more than welcome to enter even if they aren’t your size. Save them to give as a gift or something?

These are both suuuper cute & the Mary Roks booties are one of my favorite JC has come out with to date. Both have sold out in many sizes and colors but check them out for sale & pre-order at Solestruck! And check out JC’s new Fall/Winter 2010 lookbook – there are some killer shoes coming out. Can’t wait.

GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED! Thanks for all your entries, I will announce the winners (chosen at random) soon!

Thank you Ty, JC & Solestruck!

ETA: CONGRATS TO AMBER & BHORANIE! (I’ve emailed you both!)

Heads Up: Jeffrey Campbell Sale Tomorrow!

(top) my fave Jeffrey Campbell oxfords – flats! GASP! (bottom) my current jeffrey campbell wishlist

Warning: my next, like, 3 posts are about shoes, but then I’ll have a trip to NY to talk about (heading to NYFW Feb 9-19!).

Considering I work in fashion, I think my shoe collection is quite humble. I just buy what I love and must have – within budget. My friends realized it before I did, but I own & wear more Jeffrey Campbell shoes than anything else. They just go perfectly (design & price-wise) with my high-low mentality.

I got a great response to my Potion boots, and while they’ve been forcibly retired by my loved ones (who were sick of looking at them daily and they are SO BEAT UP haha), I’m replacing them with JC’s awesome new collab with Lookbook.nu & Need Supply.

Sometimes I feel like a walking JC ad, but I genuinely love what they’re doing, so I was really happy to learn that the love was mutual. Ty at JC – who is amazingly sweet & funny – and I are teaming up on some fun things for the site, starting with a couple giveaways!

More to come on the giveaways very soon – but as a precursor, Ty gave me the scoop that Jeffrey Campbell is doing their first sample sale with Gilt Fuse TOMORROW! I’ve never participated in a Gilt sale but I signed up just for this. No word whether the Potions will be there, but it will be fall styles at discounted prices and I’m hoping to snag something good!

In short: Cute shoes. Good Prices. Get on it.

36 hours only, starting Feb 2, 2010 at 12pm EST

UPDATE: It’s on the Gilt Fuse homepage, but nearly everything is gone now – sold out in minutes :( Stay tuned for my giveaway though!

What I Wore: Lazy Sunday

Jazzi — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 07:13:18 +0000

Kai Aakmann keyhole drape sweater; LNA zipper leggings; Jeffrey Campbell potion boots

Slept in, ate a late lunch, went book browsing, to see Up in the Air, and came home to watch Dexter. No complaints.

Up in the Air was fantastic – highly recommend. Plenty of close-ups of George Clooney and his incredible bottom eyelashes (Ya, I’m a Clooney creep, so what?), but also great editing, great story, and great acting. A+.

My Kai Aakmann sweater was itchy at first, not sure if I just got used to it or if it has gotten better with wear, but I love it now. It’s warm and cozy, and I love the keyhole detail and random sling that make it more interesting than my other sweaters. And Jackie handed me down these LNA zipper leggings that go with everything.

I also spent some time this weekend wrapping gifts at United Cerebral Palsy. It felt really good to do something without needing or wanting anything in return. I love helping people, and the holiday spirit has officially kicked in. Not to get all preachy, but I really hope everyone will take some time to do something charitable this season (or any season). I don’t have much money to give, but there are plenty of other ways to help and I hope to do more in the coming year.

OH P.S. – I have an unworn pair of these Jeffrey Campbell boots (in a size 9) I’m looking to sell, so here are your first dibs! email me!

What I Wore NYC: Shredded, not Shredder

raquel allegra shredded shirt; forever 21 shorts, jeffrey campbell buckle boots; street vendor glasses & old bag

This was pretty much my NY heatwave uniform. The heat was unbearble, so a sheer top and short shorts were a must. As I’ve said before, I really don’t do flats, so luckily these wedges were comfortable to get me through my trip. I am still living in them. Even though I now have these awkward striped tan lines going up my foot…

Oh, and my $5 street vendor glass broke the next day.
