Recently I was contacted about the U.S. launch of a new shopping website called Very.com. You all know how much I love online shopping (especially late at night, haha!), so I’m always looking for new sites to peruse. Very.com is originally a UK site that carries all sorts of cute items, including chic party dresses that would be perfect for the upcoming holiday season, chunky knits for the chilly fall/winter weather, and sleek pants that you can wear to work. Lucky for us ladies, they are now coming to the the U.S. and I picked out some of my favorite items below!
Embellished Dress // 70s Flare Soft Trousers
Controller Knit Cardigan // Madison Belted 70s Vintage Coat
To celebrate the launch of their website in the United States, Very.com is hosting a very fun (get it?! ;) Facebook competition! If you guys want to pop on over to Facebook and place a vote for me, I would so appreciate it! All you have to do is like their Facebook page and then vote for your favorite look. To reward you for your hard work when you vote, you’ll get a 20% discount code to use online at Very.com! In addition, if you vote for me it can count as another bonus entry in my giveaway! Pretty awesome! =)
Here’s my entry! Now head on over to Facebook and grab your discount code! =)
And don’t forget to give yourself another entry in the giveaway once you’ve voted!

![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
