A Chic Makeover + A Giveaway (3 Winners!)

The Chic Life has a new look! What do you think of my bloggie makeover? Not too shabby, eh? I would hope not considering how many hours (and hours and hours) I poured into it over the weekend.

I’ll go into the nitty gritty of how I moved my blog another day…maybe this weekend?

For now, I want to C-E-L-E-B-R-A-T-E!!!!!!!!!!

What better way to celebrate than with a giveaway?

Since I’m feeling generous, I’m offering three different prizes for three different winners! More chances to win is always a plus, no? ;)

    I would definitely wear that new necklace out for some sushi if I did an Eat in Month challenge! Way to go!

  2. Catherine P says:

    yummm! agreed with sushi, however the necklace would look elegant as you eat a very tasty steak. So steak house would be PRIME!

  3. Brittney says:

    I love the necklace… It is so elegant, after EIM I would go to my favortie place to eat, it’s a japanese steakhouse, and they cook the food in front of u and it is so fun.

  4. Megan M says:

    Beautiful jewelery and the cookies look delicious! The earrings would be my first pick because they would look great with everything! Ethiopian cuisine gets my vote, it’s packed with flavor and antioxidant filled spices!

  5. junghwa says:

    i LOVE your jewelries! they are so beautiful.
    i would love to win the necklace or earrings!!!

  6. junghwa says:

    you’re on my google reader!
    and i forgot to mention where you should dine out in my previous comment.
    i think you should dine out at french restaurant with wonderful course meals!!

  7. junghwa says:

    i’ve subscribed to your mails!

  8. Leah @ L4L says:

    Updated my google reader and blogroll!

  9. Wow, I really think that any of them would be nice to win!

    P.S. I have a U.S. address even though I live in Germany. :)

  10. First off, LOVE THE NEW BLOG! It’s gorgeous!

    Second, the jewelry is amazing! Loving those earrings to pieces!

    Third, OMG – eat in month IS almost over! I hadn’t even thought about where to go out and eat to celebrate. Hmmm, I’m offering three suggestions:

    1.) Zink in Uptown {i love their food}
    2.) 300 East here on East Blvd
    or
    3.) McCormick & Schmicks in South Park – I’m not sure if you’re a seafood fan, but I just love their fresh fish menu, and the King Salmon is ahhhhhmazing!

    Personally, my first stop will probably be lunch at Pikes on Monday. Yum!

    :)

    I shall tweet and blog about your giveaway and new blog as soon as I get back from Boston Sunday night. Those cookies are making me drool! LOL

  11. Jennifer says:

    You are SO talented!!! Beautiful jewelry and GREAT job on the new website! I’m updating my blogroll/link list :)

  12. Rebecca says:

    Those cookies look amazing!! I have a biased opinion-I think you should eat out once the challenge is over because I love eating out!

  13. Emily says:

    I think I would choose the cookies. They look delicious!

    And I’d eat out at a classic burger place and get a nice, juicy burger :)

  14. Emily says:

    And I updated my Google Reader!

  15. Leigh says:

    The vegan cookies! I have always wanted to try them!

  16. sheista says:

    I wondered where you were……..

    I’d love that necklace and a piece of pizza ;)

  17. Marie says:

    I like the earrings first, necklace second.

    If I were you I’d eat at either Olive Garden or Japanese Hibachi Restaurant.

  18. I love the new look/site! It’s amazing!

  19. I’d love to win the earrings. Beautiful!

    I’d go out to eat at The Melting Pot, if there’s one near you. I find that most restaurants serve things that are fairly easy to replicate at home, but perfect fondue is something that still eludes me!

  20. Marie says:

    Where can I subscribe to your blog feed? I don’t see the link on your page. Am I a doofus? I am searching all over…lol

    I already follow on Twitter tiger1962

  21. VCK says:

    Cookies! Om nom nom.
    I would definitely pick sushi. You can make that at home, but it’s pretty time-consuming.

  22. Melody Link says:

    I updated my blogger and google reader! The necklace is gorgeous, and the cookies look amazing. Such a pretty new website!

  23. VCK says:

    Also: I updated my blog to include your new address.

  24. jenny says:

    I would like the cookies and i think you should go to mama ricottas!

  25. jenny says:

    i updated my google reader too!

  26. Leslie says:

    I updated my google reader! i love the new site! Congrats!

  27. Leslie says:

    i would love to win the necklace or earrings! They are beautiful! You should go out to an awesome sushi place onces you finish your challenge!

  28. Leslie says:

    I tweeted @herlittledogtoo

  29. eatingRD says:

    gorgeous!!! I would love those earrings, but everything looks great :) Chris and I are contemplating on where we should eat out too. We’re thinking this Moroccan restaurant called marrakech but that would be a splurge and cancel out our other eat in month savings lol I can totally relate to hours and hours of blog work and switching over I was about to cry when it didn’t look quite the same. Such hard work, you are awesome for doing it all by yourself :)

  30. Cindy says:

    Ooh, cookies please!

    Also, without question.. DIM SUM! <3

    Love the new look – very nice work!

  31. Jessica says:

    You are super talented! Congrats on the new blog addy. I changed it in my google reader!

  32. Jessica says:

    OH – and I’d love to win any of those options!!! :)

  33. The new blog makeover looks great! I love that you kept that original teapot photo–I loved that image!
    Fun giveaway–my first choice would definitely be the necklace. It’s gorgeous!

  34. Clare says:

    The necklace is beautiful! I need some updated jewelery…

  35. Rachel in NC says:

    Beautiful necklace!

    I would definitely go out for sushi after Eat in Month.

  36. Rachel in NC says:

    Subscribed to the new site!

  37. Andrea says:

    I love the necklace!! Beautiful.

    My vote would be for sushi.. mmm, delish!

  38. Andrea says:

    and I updated my reader!

  39. LisaM says:

    Your first meal should be something that you don’t know how to cook yourself and have not had all month…maybe your favorite bar or cafe?

    I love the earrings you made and they would be my choice if I were to win!

  40. eatingRD says:

    changed your url in my blogroll :)

  41. eatingRD says:

    Just posted!! Let’s see what’s left?? lol

  42. eatingRD says:

    aaaand I also changed your feed in reader :) May I ask how you transfered your site so that it shows up right in reader and google? It’s weird for google when I type in eatingrd it still shows the mytastytravels address and not just http://eatingrd.com? wasn’t sure since I can’t do a 301 direct with subdomains. Does it just take time? Thanks!

  43. Coralee says:

    I would love to win that necklace!
    As for eats I would base the decision on what you have been craving the most this month. Something ethnic with specialized ingredients that you don’t generally make at home. When we go out most often it’s for Thai, Vietnamese or Indian.

  44. Rachel says:

    Gosh… they’re all great prizes. For me, it’s really tied between the earrings and the cookies. I’d be so happy with either. I’m gonna say that cookies though.
