3-Way Style Challenge June: LPM Showroom

In the June edition of the 3-Way Style Challenge, we invited 3 local bloggers to come "run wild" in the new LPM showroom! Instead of styling one piece, the girls each styled an entire outfit---- all they brought were shoes/ accessories. It was fun to see an entire outfit styled with vintage in 3 completely different ways---These ladies definitely know how to work it!

Who styled best? Vote for your favorite blogger in the poll at the end of the post--- winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to La Petite Marmoset! (Polls close Friday at Noon ET)

3-Way Style Challenge April: On Repeat

For the LPM April 3-Way Style Challenge, we decided to throw out a real life scenario-- What if you had to wear the same item of clothing two days in a row? (lost luggage, holding out on doing laundry, going from one event to the next, etc.) We asked 3 local fashion bloggers to style our high-low tribal print top two different ways--- The resulting combinations rocked! Each girl showed us two takes on their own kick butt personal style :) Who wore it best? Vote for your favorite fashionista in the poll at the bottom--- the winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to La Petite Marmoset! Poll closes Tues 5/1 at midnight.

1) Sara (High Fashion 4 Less)

Sara, on her personal style: "My style is classy chic meets modern edgy rocker. I like to pair unexpected pieces together like a bold vintage print top with a structured black short. I also think it's extremly important to wear what you are most confident and comfortable in. Wearing an outfit that's not 'you' will simply translate into a misguided statement."

2) Sai (Because I Am Fabulous)

Sai, on her personal style: "My style is fun, sexy, and just me! I chose that [style] because I absolutely love colors and that shirt just gave me life! There was so much to do with it! But I wanted a fun day look and also a night look."

3) Waverly (Pich & Roor)

Waverly, on her personal style: "I would describe my style as sporadic. It depends entirely on my mood, sometimes I want to be girly, other times I channel my inner vampire with a dark lipstick. One consistency in my style is that there's usually a lot of leg showing, because it's my favorite body part :)"
