There are a lot of great choices of colors and different uplifting messages about your spouse to choose from. I chose the pink short-sleeve junior-fitted shirt that says, “My husband rocks!” I like the script font and love the message!

I really appreciate the length on the shirt – it comes way below the waist far down on the hips so there is no issue for a girl if she were to bend over. And the neckline is perfect for me – a crewneck – so I don’t have any issues with modesty at all with the cut. I like the weight of the material that Union28 uses. It’s not too thin or see-through at all.

The junior-fit is a slimmer fit than the ladies’ cut. I usually wear an XS (0-2) or even a girls’ size 14-16 on top. I was thankful that the site suggested ordering at least a size larger than normal because these shirts do run small. I ordered the 4-6 and was glad that I did. The fit is snug. I think with the junior-fit some people may even want to order 2 sizes larger than normal potentially. So if you would rather not have something so form-fitting, the ladies’ cut may be a better choice for you.

I am happy with the value Union28 gets for the money. The shirt I have is well-made and reasonably priced. I have to give it a big THUMBS UP!

And as part of this review, I get the opportunity to giveaway a $25 gift certificate so you can pick out something of your very own– or for your spouse or someone you know that’s getting married!– all you have to do is enter our giveaway using the widget below!

Guess why April 7th is a special day below, and get a chance to win a skirt from New Creation Apparel.

Rules:

• One guess per e-mail address.
• Comment must include what skirt you want to win.
• I will draw randomly from those with the correct answer, but I will not reveal the correct answer in comments.

Contest ends on April 14, 2011 when I will draw the winner!

Whew!  It seems like I’m all tired out from the last giveaway that I don’t know where this month is gone to.

But it is that time again—time for a giveaway, and to get this site up and running again.

For this giveaway, we’re going back to the totally random style that we’ve done before, with a twist.

Your mission, should you choose to accept, is to figure out how many NCA skirts we’ve given away through this site and use the contact form to let me know.

1. Find out how many skirts we’ve given away.
2. Use the Contact Form to let me know.
3. I will randomly select one from those that have the correct answer.

Only the first e-mail that I receive from an e-mail address counts, so make sure you have your “final answer”!

One of the recent upgrades to the site has been the addition of article suggestions and a rating mechanism.  You can see it on every post after the text and before the comments.

However, I need help getting content rated.  This counts for any site in my network—and all of them have this feature!

So, this will be a lot of work for me, but for any article you rate, make sure to include in the comments #Feb2011NCARating.  If you do it on this site, make sure you add three sentences so you can also count it toward your comment total!

UPDATE: You can get up to 25 points (1 per post with #Feb2011NCARating) for rating posts on any MInTheGap site

So, to be clear:

1. Click on the number of stars you think the article deserves (even less than 5 is good because it helps us make our articles better in the future!)
2. Leave a comment with #Feb2011NCARating so that I know you rated.
3. You can do it on any MInTheGap site—which are linked through the Related Posts feature.  Sites include:
   1. minthegap.com
   2. tech.minthegap.com
   3. fiction.minthegap.com
   4. isthismodest.com
   5. lieswivesbelieve.com
   6. weekendkindness.net
   7. veggietalesreview.com

Have fun!

It may be that you wear skirts only to church, just when you’re dressed up or all the time.

It may be that you’ve worn skirts your entire life, or just started recently.

We want to hear your stories, and that’s what this post is for!

For every story given in comments on this post, you’ll get a point towards the February free skirt!

For one of the giveaways of a New Creation Apparel skirt, I had people guess which skirt I got from NCA for my wife.

That means, somewhere on this site is the answer.

The first person to remember it correctly gets 5 points!

It’s time to play “Read My Mind”!

Just like we did last month:

1. Go to the New Creation Apparel website.
2. Take a guess and which skirt I’m thinking of.

The first one to guess gets 5 points toward the goal!

I’ll give hints in the comments until someone gets it.

UPDATE: Melissa won (see comments below).  The skirt was the Maternity Black and White Floral.  5 points for her, and more points still to come!

Today’s challenge isn’t necessarily for today.  Sometime this month you must wear a skirt (it can be different skirts) seven days in a row.

To make sure you complete this, and to win 100 points in our contest, you must do the following:

1. Go to our forums and login (registration is free if you don’t have a login!)
2. Find the February 2011 Giveaway Forum.
3. Add a new topic—give it your name and then this contest section.
4. Each day for the seven consecutive days, post what you wore, and ideally a picture (which you’ll have to host somewhere—but it’s 100 points, remember!).

This can be done any time this month (and some of the Northern Gals are saying “You’ve got to be kidding, we have snow!”), so you can wait toward the end of the month, but it must be most of the day.

If you choose not to post a photo, at least describe what you wore and how that day went.  This is supposed to be encouraging as well as a great way to win a lot of points!

I hope that you’re all enjoying the winter weather!  Here’s something that will warm you up—The January 2011 New Creation Apparel Giveaway!

I’ve taken the liberty of going to the NCA site and I’ve picked out a skirt from there—it’s up to you to guess which one it is.

So, click the image on the right and head off to NCA and then come back here and comment on which skirt you think I’m thinking of.  You get one guess per day!

If no one guesses the skirt, I’ll give a hint tomorrow and see if that helps—same rules apply.

I’ll keep giving out hints and you’ll keep getting a chance to guess until someone gets it—and they’ll get their choice of skirt!

So, let the games begin!

Here’s another Tea Collection giveaway, and this one is being hosted by My Baton Rough Mommy!

This one ends on January 28th, so if you’re going to get in, you have to get in soon.

The inspiration behind Tea is….well tea. Yes the drink because it is shared in nearly every culture. The company carries the tagline “for little citizens of the world,” celebrating the beauty found in cultures around the world.

Most of you know that I have three girls so immediately I was drawn to the beautifully unique girl’s dresses but honestly their entire collection is great!

So, what are you waiting for?  $100 is a great thing to win!
