I have been looking for a good trouser jean, so I have high hopes for the Tall & Trim Trouser Jean!

I love the Longitude Cardigan!

#6 Mary (Homepage) on 2010-01-21 13:56

I think the dancer top is super cute. A boatneck looks good on any woman and looks super classic comphy! I could wear this with a headband or scarf in my hair and go sailing on a crisp spring day.

#7 Kimberly on 2010-01-21 14:11

Looking at the Daffodil Dots Skirt makes me long for spring time. the yellow on the black is lovely.

#19 joyce on 2010-01-21 14:58

Definetely the 3/4 Sleeve Sophomore Top

#20 Erykah on 2010-01-21 15:00

Love the paisley tote! I'm a sucker for a good tote.

#21 Sara Gearhart on 2010-01-21 15:03

The Keep it Real Dress - I long for spring's banishment of tights under dresses and for wearing lighter fabrics!!

#22 Kim on 2010-01-21 15:10

Love the rhinestone parrot ring!

#23 Erica on 2010-01-21 15:12

I REALLY like it all so this is a tough decision but I would have to say my favorites are the Wrapped Up Top, the Asymmetrical Zipper Bag, and the Tulle Flower and Beads Necklace!

#24 kira on 2010-01-21 15:25

When I see the keep it real dress for $36.99 it just makes me want springtime to come! I could pair the dress with a cute cardigan and some flats and wear it to work, and then hit the town with friends after.

#25 Jo Ann Shober on 2010-01-21 15:30

Super cute bag! The coiled snake ring is fierce!

#26 Christina on 2010-01-21 15:32

Love the Longitude Cardigan as I tend to keep a cardigan with me year round ofr the cool evenings.

#27 Jody Hickmott (Homepage) on 2010-01-21 15:34

Ooo, the Wrapped-Up Top in Wind Chime would be a PERFECT transitional layering piece for workdays. That ruffle is sweet, and the material looks soft and light enough for a mild, warm early Spring day, and sophisticated enough to pair with work trousers, a skirt, or dressy jeans.

#28 Selene on 2010-01-21 15:38

I love the daffodil dots skirt for spring. The yellow makes me think happy thoughts.

#29 couchpapaya on 2010-01-21 15:38

I love the Tulle Flower and Beads Necklace. I can dress it up or down, or wear for day or night. Spring can't come soon enough...

#30 Sarah Sosa-Acevedo on 2010-01-21 15:44

I love the Philosophy top. I have discovered the philosophy products recently, and love love them! Aside from that, I love the top for its light material and color. When it comes to style, I'm more of the romantic type. Perfect top for Valentine's Day!

#31 Nina (Homepage) on 2010-01-21 16:02

I'm loving the Daffodil Dots Skirt. so chic and cute!

#32 lise on 2010-01-21 16:10

Honestly, I love the rhinestone snake ring, fun and funky. Just this morning while rustling through my jewelry drawer it pained me to yet again bypass all of my great fashion rings. There's no getting around Chicago winters without gloves, so my rings go in same waiting pattern as my cute ballet flats and sandals. The day I can wear my rings again, I will know that the weather has finally officially turned.

#33 Lynell on 2010-01-21 16:19

I love love the longitude cardigan

#34 katie on 2010-01-21 16:27

Tulle Flower Headband is so cute!

#35 L on 2010-01-21 16:34

the rhinestone panther ring, definitely! such a statement piece, and can be debated on both sides on why it's either great or hideous.

#36 Kay W. (Homepage) on 2010-01-21 16:49

The daffodil dots skirt is the piece that really makes me wish for spring. It's so fun and I can think of tons of different ways to wear it.

#37 Charli Lame on 2010-01-21 17:05

I would like to believe that I am a "cool" 52 year old. So my pick is the longitude cardigan. It could be worn to work or with cute boots for a night out.

#38 Patti on 2010-01-21 17:07

Love the lost in love dress! Definitely a spring color!

#39 Hana K. (Homepage) on 2010-01-21 17:11

I am in love with the Tulle Flower accessories, especially the Tulle Flower and Beads necklace. The 1950s style has me channelling Emma Pillsbury from Glee! I would pair it with a bright coloured cardigan and pencil skirt.

#40 Dawn Jensen on 2010-01-21 17:22

I love love love the Turquoise Flower Rhinestone Ring! It reminds me of spring!

#41 Kari S on 2010-01-21 17:34

#49 Janet on 2010-01-21 18:38

I lovee the cardigan and the black flower ring!!!

#50 Corrine on 2010-01-21 19:08

The tulle flower headband - perfect for springtime or even the end of winter to perk things up a bit! It has the perfect amount of playfulness to counteract a moto jacket and t-shirt, or complement a ruffled blouse and skirt. So adorable!

#51 Sarah on 2010-01-21 19:32

The leaf necklace is calling my name

. I like the Lost in Love dress too.

The rhinestone snake ring! very hawt (:

#60 Dalena H on 2010-01-21 23:49

Oh my! I LOVE Downeast BAsics! I've already added several items to my Amazon universal wish list. But, I think my favorite is the Sprinkles on Top shirt.

#61 April Knapp (Homepage) on 2010-01-22 01:18

#65 Allie Perry on 2010-01-22 06:45

Double take jeans. They look comfy and I could dress them up or dress them down.

#66 Anie on 2010-01-22 06:50

The Turquoise Flower Rhinestone Ring would look great with a floral spring dress I have my eye on! Love the color

#67 styleezta (Homepage) on 2010-01-22 07:41

I instantly was drawn to the jewelry. I love the Rhinestone Parrot ring, because of the great green color, and also for how unique the piece is. Thanks for the opportunity.

#68 Deirdre on 2010-01-22 08:17

I loooove DownEast!! I'm drooling over the Philosophy Top now, but I'd take anything

#69 reva on 2010-01-22 08:19

I love the Tulle Flower and Beads Necklace at: http://www.downeastbasics.com/tulleflowerandbeadsnecklace-comingsoon.aspx
Its the perfect blend of girly, flirty, sexy and spring! I want to throw it on with a basic linen dress to dress it up a bit! Ughhhh where are you memorial day?

#70 Lauren on 2010-01-22 08:24

I am a skirt junkie, so I would grab the Soiree Corduroy Skirt right off the rack and head for the registers!

#71 Stephanie Shelnut on 2010-01-22 09:13

Love the Lost in Love raspberry dress. Cute.

#72 Regina on 2010-01-22 09:32

Turquoise Flower Rhinestone Ring
has me wishing for spring.

#75 Sarah on 2010-01-22 12:26

Definitely the Longitude Cardigan. It's perfect for layering on top of floral dresses.

#76 Jen (Homepage) on 2010-01-22 13:21

I absolutely have to go with the Daffodil Dots skirt. It is so "Springy" without being pastel or too floral. I can see wearing it with a cute tank, a light cardigan and some strappy sandals. A sweet little skirt just right for Spring!

#77 Lori on 2010-01-22 13:43

I'm in love with the white polka dot ring. Would be so cute in the summer paired with a coral colored dress:)

#78 Molly on 2010-01-22 14:42

I think the "Turquoise Flower Rhinestone Ring" is adorable. The right accessories can make an outfit!

#79 Sarah (Homepage) on 2010-01-22 14:42

It's close between the Tall & Lean Trouser Jean and the Wrap It Up top...they both look wonderful! Thanks for a great giveaway!

#80 Meredith on 2010-01-22 14:59

Red Flower Rhinestone Ring! Nothing says spring like flowers. Those on the ring remind me of a red and white polka dot dress I use to wear in kindergarten!

Love the lost in love dress and the longitude cardigan

#82 Komal on 2010-01-22 15:59

The Longitude Cardigan is calling my name!

#83 brenda on 2010-01-22 16:08

The Rhinestone Tiger Ring! As the weather warms, the sleeve lengths on our shirts and blouses shorten. Bare arms make way for a eye-catching, statement rings. DownEast Basics' version of a famous jeweler iconic ring is just as glamourous, but at an incredible price!

#84 Jade on 2010-01-22 16:12

I'm a huge DownEastBasics fan. Adorable line. Love the new accessories and this bag is amazing! But my fave in the new line is Polka Dot Rhinestone Ring. So fun!

#88 Leighanne (Homepage) on 2010-01-22 20:51

#94 Angie B on 2010-01-23 11:35

I love the Daffodil Dots Skirt..The prints & florals are so in style now that it can be worn and you will "fit in". So wear it with Pride! who knows when this trend will go out of style!

#95 Donna Kopenhaver on 2010-01-23 14:50

That purse you featured on the front page is awesome and the fact that its in purple is wonderful. However, I am a cardigan fanatic, so my love has to go to the short story sweater. I'll have to bookmark DownEast basics.

#96 Anna on 2010-01-23 15:56

That panther ring is to die for. Reminds me of the one Rachel Zoe used to wear by Cartier. LAVE it.

#97 kristy (Homepage) on 2010-01-24 04:05

#99.1 Tiffany Fischer on 2010-01-25 12:00

I am in love with the Lost in Love Dress. I think it is beautiful. Though I also love the Finest Pearls top too. Either one I would love! And I am SO in the mood for spring already!

#100 Ashley Mazanis on 2010-01-25 12:07

I LOVE the dancer top!

#101 Ann on 2010-01-25 12:11

Not an easy choice. But since I already bought the "Keep it Real Dress" then I am going to have to go with the 3/4 Sleeve Sophomore top.

#102 Rochelle on 2010-01-25 12:22

Finest Pearl top, in black...I actually wore it on Sat night with their long sleeve lace bottom tee in red.

#103 Olivia on 2010-01-25 12:24

In terms of my favorite "new item", it's a toss up between the "Double Take Jeans" and "Black Checker & Rhinestone Ring". The jeans look so luxe and expensive, for their $54 price tag and the Black Checker & Rhinestone Ring is adorable. I also really love the "Trendsetter Tote" up for grabs! Whoever wins this giveaway is one lucky girl!!

#132 Denise Stanley on 2010-01-26 08:52

The Longitude Cardigan and ANY of the rings. They are all FABULOUS!

I love the Rhinestone Cheetah Ring and the Rhinestone Snake Ring!

#135 Ivy (Homepage) on 2010-01-27 02:36

There are many reasons I'm excited for spring. Sure, I can take a stroll in just a cardigan, or a sheer blouse. But what I'm most excited about is headbands! The greatest thing about the Tulle flower headband, and all headbands with a subtle touch like a flower or feather, is that in the spring, you can wear something as simple as a white tank, but the headband always ties your outfit together!

#136 victoria on 2010-01-27 05:05

I like the Keep It Real Dress. And wow, their prices are soo good!

BTW, that trendsetter tote is soo pretty!
