Thanks to all of our readers and followers who participated in The Tights Challenge last week! Before we premiere our FINAL challenge, here are our favorite link-ups from last week.


We love our Frugalista Fashionista, AnhKay from Glass Slippers on a Budget! This week she paired some chunky belts with tights to create outfits that can easily go from day to night!

Our mini fashion maven comes from Port Saint Lucie, FL. Miss J is sporting some
super cute polka dot tights, paired with a handbag created by her mama! Great work!

Thanks again ladies for your participation! If your look was featured, make sure to grab a LOVED BY button from our Button Up tab to put on your sidebar or featured page. Remember, if you want your look to be featured, follow the rules listed below!

Now on to our FINAL challenge: The ANYTHING GOES Challenge.

That’s right! For our final challenge, we are leaving it up to you to create your favorite fall look for a steal! Need some PINspiration? Check out these fun looks!

Here is a reminder of the rules:

Recreate a similar outfit head-to-toe. This can mean that you recreate 1, 2, 3 or all of the looks featured this week.
Create your very own look inspired by the photos we have posted
Use the bonus accessory in your completed look
Create an outfit inspired by the bonus accessory

This is where the FRUGAL part comes in. The looks you create must be made up from:

Garments/accessories you find at a thrift store/consignment store/yard sale/etc.
Garments/accessories you already own.
Garments/accessories you create.

You have until this Friday to recreate the outfit(s) and blog about them. Make sure to tell us where you found the pieces and how much (little) you spent on them. Don’t forget to add the button below to your blog post, and we would LOVE if you became a follower.

Come back to AquaSeventy6 on Friday to see how we have recreated the looks, as well. You are invited to add the link to your blog post on our comments section and the following week we will feature our favorite looks on our site and our Facebook and Twitter pages.

Don’t have a blog, but you still want to join in? NO PROBLEM!! Create your look, upload the photos to a share site (ie: Photobucket or you can pin your look to Pinterest) and add the link, as well as the purchase/cost details, in our comments section on Friday for a chance to have your look featured. You may also email your look by clicking on the email tab in our sidebar and using the word “ANYTHING GOES” in your subject line.

Hi friends! Unfortunately the week got away from us here at AquaSeventy6 and we don’t have any photos to share with you for the Tights Challenge. We’ve been sewing our little fingers off preparing orders for clients, planning our 4 cross country trunk shows, and filling up our Etsy shop so that all of you can get a jump start on your holiday shopping!

Our FFFFC will continue on Monday with features and our FINAL challenge. I know, we’ve had SO MUCH FUN recreating looks on the cheap. If possible, we will recreate a tights look over the weekend and share along with the features.

In other news, we have SOLD OUT of the aqua and green Envelope Clutch we previewed last week! Don’t worry little chickadees, similar ones are in the works. The fabrics will be different, but the style will remain the same.

Our readers and clients have been buzzing about Wednesday’s Scrappy Scarf Necklace project. I agree, these WOULD make fun Christmas gifts! 🙂

Did you see yesterday’s Petite Bag and makeup bags? Super fun for gifts or for yourself! Don’t forget to become a fan on Facebook for coupon codes, previews, and Facebook Fan Only specials!

We really appreciate you! Have a great weekend!

Here’s a blast from the past….
