Spring pick-me-up (for you and for me!)

So, after “going to the cave,” “fulfilling my to-don’t list,” and living in “survival mode” last night, I woke up this morning feeling a bit more recharged already. I even put on a matching outfit today and that kind of perked me up a bit too.

Which reminded me that I have a nice spring me-pick-me up to share with you! Remember how pleased I’d been with the selection and price of the clothes at Mark’s? Well, I have $50 with your name on it to spend at Mark’s. Treat yourself to a little something, why don’t ya’!

Personally, of all the things I have from Mark’s, I am most enamoured by the “jeggings.” These things really suit me: they’re comfortable, look like regular jeans, and the elastic waist band doesn’t give me the muffin top that regular jeans do. I wear them with a long shirt or dress over top at least once a week, including today actually. Like so:

I had to wait until no one at work was in the washroom to take this!

They don’t actually call these puppies “jeggings” at Mark’s, so if you’re looking for them, you’ll need to look for “Womens Contemporary Fit Denim Leggings with Knit Waistband” (but do not — I repeat, do not! — wear these pants as per the photo on the website). And although I am still wearing my  Mark’s Quad Comfort Boots (also worn in the photo above, but you just can’t see them) and Perfect Fit Panties (I will not specifiy if they are pictured in the photo above or not!), I’m going to pick up some more for the new season shortly. So, if I had a $50 gift certificate, that’s probably what I’d be spending it on.

Your chance for a $50 gift certificate to Mark’s

All you have to do to enter for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate to Mark’s is to check out their Spring Look Book and choose something you’d like to spend your $50 on. Tell me in the comments and you consider yourself entered!

I’ll do a draw using random.org from the comments at noon-ish on May 11, 2011. The contest is open to all Canadian residents and the gift certificate will be mailed to you directly from the PR agency that works with Mark’s.

Your chance to win one of three prize packs all valued at more than $5,000

Mark’s Spring reStyle Contest is a fun contest where men and women from across Canada enter to win by sharing their need for a fashion refresh or upgrade. I thought the prize packs looked especially awesome, so you may want to check it out as well.

To enter and learn more, go to www.MarksRestyle.com.

Bloggy disclosure note: I did not get paid to write this post or promote Mark’s. But I will be receiving a couple of items from the Spring Look Book I told you about above. I hope you know my opinion can’t be bought for the approximately 100 bucks these clothes are worth. (A cool million? Yeah, now we’re talking!)
