Inspiration: Casual Chic

{Can you believe I had a similar leopard coat a few years back, but gave it away because the lining was ripped. I am dying for another, so thrift shopping this weekend is on my to do list! p.s. I love her hair color. I may go lighter this summer.}

Daily Horoscope: Libra, Scorpio & Sagittarius

{Daily horoscope for Wednesday, October 28, 2009.}


(Libra, September 23 to October 23: Hang on tight, because your creativity is about to skyrocket! Today you'll be able to find multiple ways to add more fun, color, music and beauty to your life with little (if any) effort. Pay attention to things that confuse you, because each of them offers something you can use to create something new. Your mood will stay bright and positive throughout the day -- and no one will be able to deter you once you have a goal in mind.)

(Scorpio, October 24 to November 21: An idea you used to think of as quite radical will be proved to be the right strategy today -- and you might be served up a piece of humble pie for doubting it. The good news is, your self-esteem is riding high, and you won't let yourself get too depressed about your error. Mistakes happen, and assumptions are made from time to time -- there's no harm in that. Take this as the universe's suggestion that you open your mind and give things a chance before you turn them down.)

(Sagittarius, November 22 to December 21: Strangers have the potential to be very inspiring right now -- but you need to interact with them to uncover what they have to offer. Interactions and conversations don't have to be deep to be illuminating, so feel free to say things in passing to people you've never seen before (and may never see again). Do try to get more creative than simply commenting on the weather -- but you may be amazed at the rewards a simple smile can bring today.

A Blog Milestone + A Give-Away Contest

{March 2010 marked my second year anniversary of blogging for Simply Seductive. As much as I love blogging, you will no doubt know that it takes an incredible amount of time and effort to maintain a blog of high quality; with no less than two posts each day.

I measure my progress by the wonderful comments I receive and by the number of followers. I am aware there are many of you who visit this blog and are not followers. Well today, I hope to entice you to follow Simply Seductive and perhaps for you to encourage others to do so with a spectacular give-away of a snake-skin clutch from my personal handbag collection (see photographs below).

It is easy to qualify.  Simply become a follower of Simply Seductive and you will be automatically entered into the contest. Show evidence of encouraging others of following Simply Seductive and your name will be entered five more times. This can be done as simply as informing your readers of this give-away (either by tweeting about it or linking to this post on your blog) and letting me you've done so by leaving a comment to any of my posts. Current followers of Simply Seductive are automatically entered.

The give-away will be awarded on June 21, 2010 BUT only if I have reached 1000 followers by then. Yes, I realize this is a lofty goal, but I have always believed in dreaming BIG and I firmly believe in my blog. Help me to achieve my goal and you will be eligible to receive this beautiful snake-skin clutch. All the very best, Linda.

 Good luck and thank you in advance!}
