"My name is Joanna Howe, 30-yrs old, and my daughter is 3 yrs old. I was born and raised in the Philippines. Came to Hilton Head, SC 9 years ago for a culinary/hospitality internship then I met my husband who's from Manhattan,KS. We both have the same degree in Hotel,Restaurant Mgt. That's how we met. We are now living here in Manhattan, KS."
Her business, pronounced as "clip-its", is a combination of the words "clip" and" ipit" which means (noun)hair clip or (verb)to clip-in, in the Filipino language. You can find not only handmade hair accessories for children but also handmade accessories for women. This month she is offering a beautiful necklace and hair clips for the giveaway. The necklace for the adult is a single-chain necklace with two back to back black felt flower, ivory lace, and an English vintage ivory button. A pair of hair clips goes with this necklace for the little lady. She named the necklace Sta. Lucia after a street in Angeles City, Philippines where she spent most of her childhood. When their family gets a chance to visit, her daughter gets to experience playing outdoors with so many kids like she did.

I try to follow the seasons trends! I would wear this with a cream sweater or black cardigan! Super cute!
I live in knits and boots all fall! The clips would be darling in my 21 month old daughters hair, and how cute for mommy to have a matching necklace!
If I like the new season trends, I try to follow them using new things and combining them with stuff I already have... I would wear this with my jeans shorts to brown boots and a white long-sleeved shirt and brown cardigan! Up-do hairstyle... YEAH!
Well.... I seem to be lacking in the fashion area... I finally started using different purses and I've recently been wearing more necklaces.. so this would be great for me, but I couldn't tell you what outfit I'd wear it with... probably a dress for church! :)

I try to know what's trendy, but can't always afford to keep up with it (student husband). I have a soft grey sweater that has always needed a nice necklace; this would be perfect!
I like everything to wear.
I like necklace, and Would wear it with black sweater.
I don't really keep up with the trends, though I am starting to. I'd wear it with a cardigan and jeans. :)
I don't do a great job of following season trend, but I do try. I would wear these to church with just about any of the outfits that I wear. melissabentley2@yahoo.com
I definitely don't follow seasonal trends, mostly because I'm oblivious to that kind of thing. :D But, I do have a cute sweater that would work great with either the necklace or the clippies (and a daughter with gorgeous hair who would do the clippies justice).
very cute
Yes I love to follow fashion trends! I would wear these with a cardigan sweater, skinny jeans & knee-high boots:) sheshult@hotmail.com
I love accessories and would enjoy these. jaimiemamaof2@gmail.com
I actually don't follow fashion trends, I have my own style and I would love to wear this with jeans and red/black/white tube for the tops and doll shoes, I will wear tube so that the necklace would shine on my outfit and will ponytail my hair so that the earrings will also shine :)
I love these! Thanks for the giveaway!

I'm not a keep up the trends type of girl, I'm just my own style. So I always pick my jewellery to best match my outfits. Always elegant!
I'm not terribly trendy, but I can see myself wearing these with a cozy grey cardigan.
I too am not very trendy, but I can see myself or my little girl wearing your beautiful jewelry with a cute church dress. Thanks for the chance to win!
Great looking simple designs.

My daughter and I have our own sense of style. Not sure what outfit we'd wear these with, but we do love to match each other!!
Love accessorizing to make my outfits look more put together
I like to admire seasonal trends, but often my pocketbook doesn't allow me to follow them. I would wear this with creams, greens, and greys. I have a pencil grey skirt and cream button down that I think it would look great with! sharoncop@gmail.com
I "liked" Clipits on FB. sharoncop@gmail.com
with the whole trend question, I try to keep up but with homemade or affordable options. The same look for less kinda thing.

I do not always follow the seasonal trends. I like to buy and wear clothes that I am comfortable in. I would wear this necklace with many different outfits, I can see how you can go from day to night with this versatile piece :)Thank you for the lovely giveaway!
I would wear them with my off shoulder top, high waist skirt with plait belt around, leggings and above the knee boots!! So pretty!! oh! I almost forgot the hair must be spiral and a little make up. Finish it with unbutton trench coat. gorgeous!!!! I can't wait to wear them!!.
My daughter and I would totally rock this with some jeans and comfy light-weight sweaters this fall. We're not trendy, but we'd love them!

I'm more classic and comfortable than trendy. I would probably wear this with an ivory shell and a black cardigan.
I would put my daughter and I in purple shirts and wear the chiffon clips.

I wish I could follow the seasons trends! I think these would look gorgeous with a simple gray fitted shirt and dark skinny jeans!

I tend to stick with the classics. These would look great with a black tee and jeans :) mamalusco at ortelco dot net
I don't keep up with too many trends. But I would love to wear these with dressier clothes or to dress up something casual! :)
