Attention all you stressed out NYC fashionistas in need of a beauty break (yours truly included):

I recently found out about a unique service offered by Mary Beth Alessandri, formerly a fashion stylist and of Cloud 9 Spa in San Francisco, who will come into your home to give you a customized spa experience. Her facial masks are made from 100% organic fruits and vegetables, and she also executes acupressure, a lymphatic hand, foo,t and neck massage for true relaxation. Her services could also be a great idea for a party – be it turnin the big 3-0 or a bachelorette party. Her rates are really beyond reasonable (the signature facial is $75), and having at-home service? Priceless!
For more information and to schedule an appointment, contact Mary Beth at: mbthreads@aol.com

Now through August 9th, Bebe is giving away several $1,000 shopping sprees as part of their Rock bebe Jeans Sweepstakes. Just fill out the entry form, select a dancer, and upload your photo to enter (you’ll see what I mean when you click on this link). 
You get to “wear” one of the three new jeans styles in the video as well (all skinny styles). It’s rather hilarious and weird to see your face superimposed on someone else’s body dancing — check out the video bebe made of me:
Good luck!

Fashion Pulse Daily has once again teamed up with chickdowntown.com to give readers a chance to win a Loves Quotes scarf! With a retail value of $88, the winner can choose from one of the three shades: mustique, peace, or Tuscan garden. So how do you get it? Simply give us some styling tips or why you like it, and join chickdowntown.com’s facebook page. My style suggestion? A solid scarf would be the perfect accessory to add to the floral and colorful Yumi Kim clothing, a designer I initially discovered and fell in love with during a shoping trip in NoLiTa. I’d pair the YUMI KIM Narcissus Nyla Romper with a pair of black lace-up Doc Marten’s, some dangly earrings, and toss the Love Quotes scarf in peace around my neck, anticipating a chilly night ahead. Now it’s your turn – go for it!
HOW TO ENTER:
1) Press the “comment” button below to enter your name and email address, and a comment about the Loves Quotes scarf –– either why you like it or what you would style it with!
2) Join the chickdowntown.com on Facebook Fan page
3) FYI: 1 entry per person, per contest, and entrants must be 18 and older, and residents of the U.S.A. only please!
4) The winner has 24 hours to confirm their acceptance of the prizes via email; if a response is not received within that time frame, the prizes will be forfeited and a new winner picked.
That’s it! Good luck!
