One week into January and we've already had 3 snow days. Luckily, the deep freeze means that I've had loads of time indoors to manhandle one of the top resolutions on my list: my closet. Though I'm supposed to be a good editor since my job title is 'Fashion Expert', even my closet is filled with things I really don't need. So now, we're colour-coded, culled and totally caught up which means that I'm allowing myself to buy a few more things. Pilled and stretched sweaters need to be replaced, old jeans need updating and, of course, I have my eye on a few things that I want, just because they're pretty.

To kick off the year, I've rounded up some gorgeous finds from Smart Set to help you in your quest to look more chic in 2014. Read on for my top tips + enter to win a $100 gift card to shop Smart Set's new collection...

Smart Set Giveaway

When I need basics, I always go to Smart Set.   Their stretchy tanks and tees are super well-made and equally well-priced and always come in all the colours I need.  Plus, Smart Set has stepped up their game lately after undergoing a massive customer research initiative to figure out exactly what fit, style and trends the Smart Set woman is after.  After checking out their Fall '12 collection at the Toronto preview last week, I can tell you that there are loads of pretty pieces I'm eyeing for fall, including this insane red coat with the perfect oversized collar, and some to-die-for blouses and lacey shirts that will take up some serious real estate in my closet.

For our last giveaway of the week, we're donating a $50 gift card to Smart Set! To win, leave a comment below telling me your favourite summer go-to's.  Do you live in shorts & tees?  Do you rely on breezy dresses to beat the heat?  Contest closes at midnight tonight.  Thanks to Smart Set & Brill Communications for this great prize. Best of luck, y'all! x
