How do you always dress sooo perfectly? ;)

My question is how did you decide to start blogging?
WOO HOO :-) Enter me please.
Ok, let's see...I kinda have two questions, but I'll combine them ;-) Is that cheating....
How would you personally describe your style and I know you have a daughter- can't remember her age- does she look to you for fashion advice/ideas?
You are generous! What's the oldest item of clothing in your wardrobe? xxx

Thanks for hosting such a great giveaway! I'm a follower. My question is, what is your all time favorite store to shop at?
This is a GREAT idea!
Question: Do you decide what to wear the night before or the day of? How long does it take you to get dressed (do you always know exactly what's your going to wear or do you try on a million things)?
Thanks for having a giveaway Collette :)
Ooh, fun, and thank you for the self-sponsored giveaway! I could use an excuse for a little shopping spree at F21. My question for you: How and when did your style evolve? Would photos of you as a girl and teenager show a similar love of layering, pattern, texture, and jewels, or is this a more recent look?
Can Canadian's enter?
If so, I'm alread a follower and I would like to know where you get your style inpiration from.
Amazing giveaway :)
my question would be: where do you keep finding inspiration for your blog?
