Organizing la Carnivale de Couture

August 10, 2006 by Designer Ella

I had been awaiting the announcement from Manolo, I even failed to post other things while waiting because this post is most important! While Manolo vacations this summer, through August, I am organizing the Carnivale of Couture with help from The Bargain Queen and Ask Mom (a ShoeBlogs commenter).

The next Carnivale of Couture topic will be on <3 Life, <3 Style at Butterfly-Black.blogspot.com! Her topic is up and it is

Have you ever worn or not worn a certain something that was probably not the smartest thing to do but you did it anyway because of the sake of fashion? Or being horribly embarrassed? You did something fashion-associated that probably wasn’t practical and was punished in some way [suffering consequences by be it Mother Nature, or something or someone else]. Tell me your story!

Visit <3 Life <3 Style to participate and read more.

It’s a great topic! And if you need a little extra time (past this Sunday), she will extend a deadline for the latecomers. Check the host’s blog for updates on that. The entries are scheduled to be compiled each Monday, but this first week has been tough, so we give allowances. It’s all understandable, right?

Here is the schedule through the next few weeks! Check these blogs, or here, for the topic during the week before the due date!

(The entries are usually posted on Monday mornings, as I have observed, so yours should be e-mailed in by the Sunday night before that date.)

Yes, it’s great news: I have booked midway through September! But if you want to host after these lovely blogs, I can add you. Contact me (at designerella at kissmestace dot com) as long as it’s before Manolo is back in September. (Make sure to include the word Carnivale in your e-mail and it won’t be missed!)

And if you are wondering how it works, or have doubts about hosting, visit The Bargain Queen’s tutorial on hosting!

I will be sending out an e-mail to the old list, frequent participators, and newly inclusion-requested ASAP. If you want to be on the new update list for la Carnivale, comment here (best way to ensure I see every one and quickly).

I think that’s it for now! Keep checking here as the headquarters, currently, for Carnivale topics and updates!

Big thanks to The Bargain Queen and Ask Mom, who are both doing so much!
