Recently, I was invited to be part of the MNG by MANGO Mission, to help spread word about the Spanish clothing & accessories line sold at jcpenney. Even though this line does not offer petite sizing, I thought it would be a fun challenge to seek out possible petite-friendly items from a regular womens line. I'm thrilled to be joining nine other bloggers on this campaign:
Over the next two months, we will receive style challenges inspired by five European cities - Paris, Milan, Amsterdam, London, and Barcelona. I'll be compiling themed outfits for these challenges, and I invite readers and fellow bloggers to participate for fun. At the end of October, after the last style challenge, we will be visiting the MNG by MANGO studios in Barcelona. If you are interested in joining us, please check out the elle.com/MNG sweepstakes. One lucky winner will come along with us on the trip!
Thank you all so much for your readership (and friendship!) over the two years. It's only with your support that I am invited for such neat opportunities. Warm hugs to everyone, and stay tuned for the first European-inspired style challenge in two weeks!
Disclosure: This campaign is produced by Style Coalition and sponsored by jcpenney.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great opportunity. Congrats! Love to see what you come up with. I discovered Mango while studying abroad back in college. They have some cute stuff.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Congrats! And you think you live in a desolate city - I live in Philly, lol. I wore my fedora the other day and got so many weird looks. We had like two events at the mall about 20 miles outside of the city...I am gonna do some online shopping to make up :)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, thank you ladies SO much for your kind words!
ReplyDelete@R.L. No he will not be..sad sad!
@1MadScientist Oh! I didn't mean that I live in a desolate city. I actually love Boston, even though we got named worst-dressed city of America, ha! I'm working this week near Philly, so I share your woes : )
Congrats! I follow several of the bloggers chosen so it's fun to see everyone's post today about this! What an exciting trip!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! I'm so excited you were presented with this opportunity! Can't wait to see the outfits you'll be sharing with us =].
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Jean! This is a fantastic opportunity and I can't wait to see your takes on the upcoming challenges!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Will there be an opportunity to ask questions about height issues in European branded clothing? In my ideal world, I'd only buy petite sized European (non British) brands!!
ReplyDeleteWow! That IS such exciting news! Congratulations! It is definitely well deserved. I feel like I'm always coming here to learn what's currently out in stores, so I hope to learn more about MNG through you!
ReplyDeletecan't wait to see pics of you in Barcelona, along with the other bloggers.
ReplyDeleteGreat news! Mango is a beautiful brand, I ordered a skirt this spring which was way too big. Quite a while back though my 4th grade teacher contacted me, asking me if I was still as tiny as she remembered me to be. She adopted a Korean daughter who loves fashion but threw away pieces that still looked perfectly fine, I received a few garbage bags full of hand me downs, of which I kept quite a few items. Among those items is a MNG cardigan I still wear a lot. :D
ReplyDeletecongrats!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Jean!! That is so exciting for you!! You definitely deserve it! Mango is such a great brand - I discovered them in Europe 3 years ago! I can't wait to see your style challenge looks!
ReplyDeletexo, sam
Congrats! This sounds like fun times.
