For your chance to win one (1) feathered headband of your choice, visit the Feather by Feather Etsy store (www.featherbyfeather.etsy.com), then tell us which headband style is your favorite in the comment section below.

The Deal: Tuesday 2/17- Hunter Festival Boots, only $49.95!


Why you need them: This has to be the best deal I've seen on Hunters EVER! Choose from 15 different styles including the festival tall, short or laced boots in bright yellow, red, blue or classic black, chocolate or dark olive. I absolutely love my pair (and I thought I got a good deal at Gilt Groupe when I paid $58 for mine!) When spring showers hit, you'll be glad you own a pair, too.

Wet Seal's got a contest going on right now where you build a Valentine outfit using at least 3 items from their online store, then tag the outfit "V-Day 2009" for your chance to win a $100 giftcard. What got me interested was the whole "build your outfit" part—I hadn't realized that Wet Seal has created their very own Polyvore-esque tool. (Maybe Forever 21 will be next!) It's actually pretty fun, even if you're limited to Wet Seal's hit-or-miss inventory.

Sign up for a free account to save your looks, post them to a virtual "runway" and rate other looks by fellow fashionistas. One downside is that you can't resize products using the outfit building tool, but other than that, the interface works better than expected. The coolest feature is that it automatically calculates the total cost of your looks, and if you love your creation, you can add the entire outfit to your shopping bag. Now that's marketing at its best!
