Chief Blonde Remarks: OKA b.  has so many styles to choose from,  tons of colors, lots of girly girl details like ribbons and flowers–they even have kids and men’s styles!  I  thought the pair of Bridget’s that they sent to me were just adorable and I secretly wished that I could plan a trip to a warm climate just to wear them more than around my bedroom.  Alas, I’ll have to wait until Summer..But you won’t!  We’ll be having a giveaway in December for these awesome shoes–2 winners!  Don’t you just love me?  Okay…Don’t you just love OKA b.!!!???

The Perfect Fusion of Classical Styles and Colorful Vintage Patterns

VeronicaM Sequin Tank Dress $98.00

Girly Girl Highlights:

Fashion Forward Pieces all under $150

Styles include classic blazers, chic tops and perfectly hugging wrap dresses

5 locations available in Southern California and available Nationwide via VeronicaMclothing.com

We had a smashing giveaway here for VeronicaM:  https://stillblondeafteralltheseyears.com/2010/11/100-veronicam-clothing-gift-certificate-giveaway/ Entrants regularly commented that they were big fans of the line and very excited to win.  I love this styles and fabrics.  I was sent a darling little keyhole knit stripped dress. The fabric was so soft I could have worn it for a night shirt.  This dress would look great with high or low shoes and easily transitioned from summer to fall.  I think VeronicaM understands Women and her clothing lines reflect that.  This is a cross generational line as well.   I feel I look cute in the clothes, a woman over 45,  but so would my 18 year old daughter!

Great for Cold Minnesota Snowy Days, Rainy New York Days (and for Women over 45)

Girly Girl Product:  Kamik Ellie Rain boots from Rain Boots Online

Kamik Ellie Rainboot in Eggplant $67.95 (Model is 47, Lovely!)

Girly Girl Highlights:

• Waterproof & Lightweight Rain Boot
• Wind Pro Polartec® Lining
• Removable Kamik® Comfort Footbed
• RAIN Outsole Maximizes Traction
• Height: 13.5 Inches
• Weight Per Pair: 2.9 Lbs

Girly Girl Details:  These Kamik rain boots can be purchased from Rainbootsonline.com.  This site also carries such rain boot brands as Bogs, Dav, Joules, Muck, Puddletons, Rainbops and Sloggers.  The site carries Women’s and Children’s Rain boots.

Chief Blonde Remarks:  These Kamik Elle Rain boots are FAB!  I received a pair to review in Chocolate Brown (they are almost black).  They are a nice high height, not cut too short to save on materials like cheaper rain boots.  The fleece lining is just yummy and kept me from having that cold clammy feeling you often experience in an unlined boot.  Rainbootsonline.com provided these boots and Still Blonde after all these YEARS will be hosting a giveaway from them in December for 2 pairs on Kamik Elle boots in your choice of Color.  I know, I know–pretty awesome right?  Rainbootsonline.com has free shipping and returns on orders of $48 or more, accessories to wear with your boots,  and a blog to keep you up-to-date on all the exciting rainboot news out there!   They have a really great article currently on the Kamik Elle Boot!
