I first mentioned the BLOG OFF last week, but thought it justified it's own post. I mean, there's $500 of gift certificates from Smashing Darling....and anyone who knows independent fashion, knows that's fabulous.

So designers, bloggers, design bloggers and all you fashionistas, designistas and modernistas - I call on you to help me spread the word. Is there someone who you think just oughta win? Well, then tell them about it...nominate them....or tell us and we'll cajole them into submitting a blog.

Oh yeah, it is absolutely free to enter - obviously. Trish from Smashing Darling and I will be choosing our favorites as the winners at the end of this month.

Feel free to use the graphic in this post to promote the Blog Off or contact me if you need something else.

Happy blogging!
