Coach comes to The Flip Side! Play to win a Coach Bag!

I'm happy to announce that beginning today The Flip Side of Oz is a partnering blog in the Coach Poppy Project! If you notice along the left hand side of the blog, there are various hearts, stars and flowers growing. These are all interactive graphics, so please play around with them. Some of them tweet messages which makes more flowers grow. The more flowers that grow means The Flip Side gets closer to winning a Coach shopping spree*.  In addition, please check back frequently because a Coach bag will appear amidst these flowers.  If you find it, click on it because you've won a Coach bag or accessory! 


Happy Poppy Growing!


*PS - Should The Flip Side win, I am planning on giving away several Coach bags to a few lucky readers. Please check back frequently to make sure we get there!

After an entire week of rain and 55 degree weather, we finally saw sunny skies today.  And, the result... a few flowers decided to come out to visit.  Not a bad Monday at all!

Okay, so maybe my outfit isn't 100% sugar and spice.  But, that's what I love about it!  The contrast between the floral dress, the leather jacket and chain detailing on the flats makes it more like 75% sugar & spice with a quarter tough as nails. You see, this morning I woke up and felt like wearing a dress, but with 40 degree weather in the morning and 70 degree weather in the afternoon, it can be slightly difficult to pull off.  Fortunately I've been waiting for the perfect moment to wear this jacket and today happened to be that moment.  It's heavy enough to keep me warm in the morning (and in the office with the AC cranked up!), yet light enough that I don't feel crazy for wearing it in April.
