A couple of weeks before BlissDom, my blogging friend Cherie, the Queen of Free, won a ticket to the conference from Inexpensively.  She was *so* excited!  BUT her win immediately caused her to have a bit of a fashion panic.  Cherie stays at home with her girls, and like so many of us, doesn’t have tons of occasions to dress up, and her wardrobe reflected that. So, she did the right thing – came to ME for help.   Cherie asked if I could pick out some outfits for her but do it on a dime – she is a frugal blogger after all!

Cherie and I actually went to college together but I hadn’t seen her in over 10 years – so after checking out some photos of her to see if her body type was the same as I remembered, and asking her a few questions about her style, I went to work picking out some outfits.  Cherie likes comfy clothes – simple but fashionable. My first thought was to see what reasonably-priced outfits I could find her at Lands’ End.  I LOVE Lands’ End and I knew their fashions would keep Cherie comfortable during the conference as well as stylish! I picked out a few things on their website that I thought would work well for her body type, then I got Cherie’s input and approval – THEN – I emailed the folks at Lands’ End to see if they’d be willing to be Cherie’s wardrobe sponsor for BlissDom, and they generously said YES!  So here is how Cherie rocked her Lands’ End style at BlissDom:

The Lands’ End layering tees are the BEST  – so soft, great quality, great fit, and so many colors! I knew this sapphire blue scoop neck tee would look great with Cherie’s red hair, and it was gorgeous!  She wore a white layering tank underneath, these super-comfy boot-cut chinos in spice brown, and adorable patterned flats.  A great look for day 1 of the conference!

One of the questions I asked Cherie when I was giving her fashion advice was, “Do you have a nice pair of dark wash jeans?” The answer was NO – and I was all “That is a MUST-HAVE!” Dark wash jeans are great for an event like BlissDom, because they are dressy, comfortable, and casual all at the same time! Here’s Cherie in her Day 2 outfit in the Lands’ End Ultra Fit jeans that are a great addition to ANYONE’S wardrobe (I have a couple pair myself!!)

Rounding out this look – a beautiful fine gauge V-neck sweater, layering tee in fern green and matching scarf.  (The scarf is now sold out – sorry!) It is no secret that I looooove scarves, and this one totally dressed up the outfit and coordinated with the layering tee. Cherie looked so put together!

Finally, Cherie needed a great dress for cocktail hour and the Harry Connick, Jr. performance on Friday night.  Knowing Cherie’s figure, I knew she’d look great in a wrap dress.  Lands’ End has some of the prettiest dresses (I was also wearing a Lands’ End dress that night!) and I thought Cherie looked gorgeous in this one:

It fit her figure perfectly, hugging her curves at the top and flowing beautifully from there.  I thought she was glowing!
