I personally love Hotheads because they're incredibly quick to apply, and don't damage your own hair. Bored of your look and ready for the ultimate transformation? Hotheads is celebrating reaching 10,000 fans and is giving away a $500 Hotheads Gift Certificate!

{Beauty Buzz} Miami: Emena Spa Giveaway!

Ever needed a vacation from your vacation? Not that I didn't love every second of my California vacay, but after 10 days on the west coast I have to say it's been a rough week for me. I'm jet lagged. My spray tan has  dulled. My hair has been sitting in a top-knot all week. (Can I be more lazy?!) Needless to say, I am counting the minutes until my appointment at Emena Spa this afternoon. I've been a loyal client for years, and if you've ever asked me about my skincare routine I've undoubtedly sent you right over to my girl Mirzza. Owner Christina Kesaris, who doubles as a Greek Goddess, has created the perfect venue for relaxation and rejuvenation in the heart of Miami's Design District.

Giveaway: $200 Gift Card to Shop H&M Miami

Lana Del Rey for H&M, Fall 2012

If you're a Miami local you may or may not be counting down the seconds to opening day of H&M on Lincoln Road. (I am!!) Back in 2010 I was psyched when the Palm Beach location was announced, so this has been a long, long time coming. Don't be fooled by that teeny pop-up shop currently on Miami Beach; our very first H&M will be a glorious two-story flagship located in the historic Lincoln Theater with over 24,000 square feet of fashion.

To celebrate, H&M wants to hook you up with a $200 gift card to get your shop on! All you have to do is show me your favorite H&M look.

To enter:
1. Follow me on Twitter @KellySaks
2. Tweet me a photo of yourself in your favorite H&M styled outfit. I'm the judge here- so get creative, be bold, and think like a fashion blogger!
3. Make sure to tag @HMusa #HMmiami in your tweets.

I'll be contacting the winner via DM on Thursday, November 8 (opening day!) at 9 AM.

Good luck!

Festive Frock & Giveaway! (Closed)

Photography by Bella Mente Photography//Styling by Kelly Saks

If you follow me on facebook or twitter you know that my birthday was a week long celebration, and probably got a glimpse of this amazing dress I partied in. With a colorful ribbon print & feminine pleats, my birthday dress was perfect for a girls' night out that ended with a dance-off against Wyclef Jean at Hyde Beach Miami. (Only in South Beach, natch.) Remember the lucite jewelry trend of 2010? Well clear, and yes plastic, handbags are the latest cheap/chic trend to hit the runways. I took the trend for a spin with this clear skull clutch courtesy of VanityGal. The fun part? Figuring out how to wear it without looking like a hoarder. So I kept just the necessities- keys, ID, credit card, lipgloss & powder- and tossed them into a cute pink coin bag. My fuchsia pumps from the Fashion For A Cause shoot were just the right shade of pink for the dress, and comfy enough to dance the night away in. Cheers to 26!

Birthday souffle at The Forge. Yum!!

Although I'm the birthday girl this month, I've got a present for you! VanityGal sent me an extra skull clutch to giveaway, offering one of you lucky readers the chance to show off what's in your bag. Enter the contest below. Contest has closed. Congrats to winners Bianca & Karoline!

Bucketfeet Giveaway (Closed)

Enter below to win a unique pair of sneakers from BucketFeet valued at $65 (your choice!) Then tune in on Wednesday, August 1st at 2:30PM ET as I join fellow Miami Fashion Bloggers Ginger, Kristin, and Maria for a LIVE Hangout on Air with BucketFeet co-founder Raaja Nemani, and Brazilian artist Felipe Motta on Google Plus. The hangout will be streamed live right here!


What are BucketFeet? 
The unique and comfortable shoes began as a hobby for co-founder and creative director Aaron Firestein, who used to scribble on his canvas sneakers while attending college in 2007. After moving to Argentina to pursue a career in photography, Firestein decided he wanted to "create a platform to connect artists to people around the world," and teamed up with friend & business partner Raaja to launch BucketFeet in 2011.

BucketFeet gives back to artists by purchasing their work, and paying them royalties for every pair of shoes they sell. They also support kids through programs in art, music, and sports. Because Aaron and Raaja met volunteering with kids, it's important for them to stay true to the story of the brand. With every purchase, they donate a percentage of sales to  non-profit partners.
