More Vile Villainy...For Guys AND Gals!

Over the Summer, the nice folks at Threadless threw a little competition to see who could design the coolest new t-shirts featuring Disney Villains. The winners have been chosen, and now there are fifteen brand-spanking-new shirts to choose from, all bearing the likenesses of baddies from The Evil Queen to Dr. Facilier.

And. They. Rock.

The thing I've always adored about Threadless is its artistic integrity. These are not your run-of-the-mill, found this at [insert department store here] designs. These each bear the stamps of the amazing artists who created them. Some are deco, some are nouveau, some are more abstract...all are incredible, and well worth the $23.50 price tag. Here are my favorites:

And the Winner Is....

Magnolia!!

Granted, she was the only one who entered...but that doesn't make her entry any less cool! Actually, even if we'd had dozens of entries, this one still would have caught my attention, and possibly even won! It's really quite impressive.

So, without further ado, I give you: Magnolia's CHALLENGE! Winning Entry!

First, a reminder of the amazing six-dollar dress:

The challenge was to accessorize the dress so that it would be suitable for a casual cocktail party. You see, my birthday is coming up (faster than I'd like), and while I'm not having a throwdown party, I am having dinner with a few close friends. This is the dress I'm planning to wear, and folks, I was stumped. I now have a clue what to do, and I'd like to thank Magnolia for all of her help. Now, onto the winning design!

I love this necklace. The strands are so delicate, but the stones make a strong statement. This is a confident, rockin' piece, but also one that's casual enough for a poolside BBQ. $32.90, The Limited.

What would the necklace be without matching earrings? These provide just enough laid-back sparkle to compliment a loose Summer up-do. $19.90, The Limited.

These shoes come in black and rose, as well, but I love how the metallic mushroom plays off of the natural colored stones in the jewelry. It's also close enough to skin tone to elongate legs. Plus, nothing says Summer like a flip-flop, and these are just dressy enough. $26.50, J. Crew.

Congratulations, Magnolia!! Now, I just need to go shopping...Happy Birthday to me!
