I’ve always advocated for wearing color to work and why I think it’s important, but sometimes my mood or the environment just calls for a great LBD. A couple of weeks ago, when I first put this gorgeous fit and flare dress on, I immediately fell in love! Not only was the cut perfect for a day at the office, but the white piping on the sleeve and skirt of the dress added an unexpected accent which brightened the whole outfit – I almost felt like I was wearing color because the ruffles “popped” so much. Whatever color you wear, I’m a firm believer that it should make you feel confident and ready to take on anything – from a board room meeting to a first date.

Now completely changing topics – with it officially being November, I wanted to make sure to let all of you know about some of the ways I am trying to make the holidays easier for you this year. First, if you look at the navigation bar at the top of this page, you will see that I have now created Holiday Central on SGSB. This tab will take you to pages filled with lots of holiday content – from what to wear to holiday parties to gift guides for your loved ones. Holiday Central is an easy way to find what you are looking for on my site.

If you are more of an email person, I am also going to be sending out some great emails this holiday season with exclusive content. You can sign up to receive emails directly from me by signing up here or in the form below! I have multiple email lists you can sign up for!!

    1. SGSB Newsletter – I usually send this out once a month with recaps of blog posts, what I’ve been shopping and what’s been going on with my life lately.
    2. Sale Alert Emails  – I think this one is the most exciting for this holiday season. Weekly (with the exception of Cyber Week, where I will be sending emails 1-3 times per day) or during a super exciting sale (think Eloquii’s Semi-Annual Sale or Nordstrom Anniversary Sale), I will send you a round up of great sales going on and some of my favorite picks from them. This holiday season, I am going to be focusing on trying to find you the best deal on products. And a special offer for all of those that sign up for this newsletter. Through December 31st, if you respond back to the newsletter with a question about what to get a member of your family, a little about them, budget and any initial thoughts on what you would like to get them, I will provide three suggestions on gifts I think they will love! I want to make your holidays as stress free as possible and since I love picking out gifts, it’s a win-win. I get to shop, you get to give, your loved one enjoys their gift – we’re all happy! 😀
    3. Clean Beauty – I’m planning to get more into this in a blog post in the next couple of weeks, but I have recently been exploring “cleaner” beauty products. If you would like to receive more information about this journey (AND BE THE FIRST TO READ about why I’m starting to adopt cleaner products), be sure to sign up for this newsletter!
    4. New Blog Post Alerts – Whenever a new post goes live, you’ll be sent an email with a direct link to it. Easy-peasy.

Newsletters



All of these email groups will have different topics/guidance, so please check all of the ones that you want to receive. Due to some privacy regulations (e.g., GDPR, CCPA), I am unable to send you the email unless I explicitly get your consent – via the sign up form- that you want to receive them. Additionally, I will NEVER EVER sell or provide your email to anyone and I will never SPAM you (unless it’s to tell you about the amazing Cyber Week sales I am anticipating). Just wanted to make sure I threw that out there. If you ever have any questions about my policies, my newsletters or really anything, feel free to shoot me an email at emily@somethinggoldsomethingblue.com.
