You guys crack me up.
I have had more comments on my blog, face book
and etsy conversations about this shirt
over anything else farm chicks related!
Here is the scoop. The day before I left for farm chicks I went shopping.
Not wanting to spend a ton of money
{because I needed to save it for all the junk in my trunk}
I stopped by my favorite store.
Maybe you have one in your area?
It's called,
my sister's closet.
Seriously, she has the best clothes and always
is so generous in loaning me things!
She did however tell me she got it at this really posh boutique called TJ Maxx.
Ever heard of it?
I thought so.
Great minds think, and shop alike.
Anyhoo, I set out right when I got home to get me one.
If I was getting all these compliments on it, I must have one for myself, right?
I went to my local Maxx yesterday and scoured for at least an hour with no luck.
Today I was on a mission.
I drove 45 minutes to another Maxx and guess what?
They had 3 left!
I bought one for a friend, one for myself and..........
one to giveaway here on my blog!
Because you guys always make me feel so special!
Just leave me a comment and you'll be entered.
xoxo
p.s. the one I was wearing was a size medium.
The one you will get is a large because that's all they had left!
I will make the announcement on Monday who the winner is!!!

Oooh, I loved your shirt too but was afraid to ask. I'm glad someone else asked about it! lol
So...LOVELY!!!
My fingers are crossed!
I think that I even told you how cute you were at Farm Chicks!!! The shirt is so adorable!!! I wish my sisters closet had cute clothes that would fit me!!!
Love Love the shirt!! This looks like something that may be fun to try do duplicate at home with a tank top and some lace. I hope to win it though so I won't have to figure it out!!
I'm a new follower, and feel kinda bad entering a giveaway as one of my 1st comments. :P But I do really love that shirt! So, either it's a TJ Maxx scouring for me soon, or fingers crossed. Either way- Ca-UTE!!
Oh my gosh. How hilarious! And you have NO idea how much I need something cute to wear! Enter me too pretty please!!
I dunno girl. You might want to keep an extra.. you sure make it look good!

It's sooo cute! Just wanted to comment in case my TJ Maxx is out :)
And don't forget those diet/fitness tips! Inquiring minds have to know!

OMGoodness! Nuh uh! I wanted to compliment you on that shirt soooo bleepin badly...just didn't want to sound like a wierdo...ah ha...glad to know I'm not the only one! My figers are so crossed (does that work for grown-ups? hope so) TTYL!
I love it!! I'm checking my Maxx tonight! (But I still hope to win ;)
Your shirt was the first thing I noticed! I love it!
I N.E.E.D. a new shirt!
OMG! I noticed your shirt (as did everyone else apparently!) and thought it was super duper cutified. I happened to be in TJ Maxx yesterday and saw it!! I thought it looked just like the one that I saw here....but they only had an XL :(
I must win this.....a large will fit "my girls" perfectly!!
Thanks for the post....it was on my mind!
HUGS~Lolo
I love the shirt. Maybe I'll get out of my jeans/capris and tshirt rut and dress like an adult?
As another redhead, I would love this shirt... shows off the freckles nicely!!

Enter me in your Giveaway for this delectable blouse!! I noticed it yesterday when I was cruising your blog!
Large is a perfect size!!!

That's funny, I can relate to having intense lust for a clothing object and driving to timbucktoo to find one.
yes, i have heard of both places actually!
unfortunately for me, no sister's closet to shop in, usually all of my friends come to my closet to shop from! so if i win, this would be a nice change! if not, i might have to head to TJMaxx to snag one for myself (if they have any left!)
thanks for thinking of your followers!
thanks for the chance! it's very sweet.
~molly
Too funny!!! I check your blog daily and I have been obsessing about that shirt!!!!! You are adorable and I love your style! I always feel weird about asking where someone bought something because I hate copycats. HOWEVER, I live in South Texas, so we won't bump into each other at TJ MAxx!
Crossing my fingers and toes that I win!!!
God Bless!
I adore the shirt. It looked so cute on you with the cowgirl boots!! Would love to win it!!!
xoxo
Jane
That's funny. I was going to ask you where you got your shirt too, but was debating if I sounded too weird by asking that. It's so CUTE! Thanx for sharing with us. Kelli hANSEN
Heading to the maxx tomorrow but would LOVE to be entered in the contest...I can give one away if I find it too1 LOL
Love that shirt!!
What an adorable shirt and you are so cute in it! I would LOVE to go the Farm Chicks but would really love to own this shirt and that's my size!!!
If I keep eating like I am..the large will fit just fine. It is so so cute.
How funny...the shirt is great! How was the Farm Chick Show, I really wanted to go. :-(
Anyway...I wear a large, so pick me!
Cute, very cute! Thank you for the chance!
Love, Love, Love the tank top!

This is a fun little giveaway! Too kind! Love the shirt and the blog!
Wow, scouring through TJ Maxx, that is amazing that you found them!!
Please on please.. large is perfect for lil' 5'10" me, hehe!!
Hmmm...if that is a medium and you are pretty tiny, I've met you at Timi's first event, then the large may not cut it. BUT I can always work on making it fit! Ha.
Please, please, please!!!
I am a teacher! I need a prize,
and large is just my size!!!
oooh, me!
No way...I love your shirt!!! (((Oh please I hope I win, I love my TJ's but not with the 3 kiddo's in tow....)))Love it!!
HA!!! I saw that shirt and loved it too!! Thanks for telling us where you got it...I'll have to check out TJ Maxx in case I don't win yours =)
SOOO CUTE!!!!! Love it!
Ok Not sure it will look just as cute has it does on you but I sure would like to give it a try! Count me in cross fingers! Hugs, Diane
Oh my gosh Melaine, that is my favorite store besides Joyworks :o) I love to go and take my time and look in every nook and cranny of store. To funny about the shirt, although you did look adoreable in your whole outfit, Cowboy hat and all. I would love the large as just my size :o)
It is adorable and so are you....hey did you know that *my sisters closet* is a very famous consignment store in Scottsdale...NY time said it is the best shopping there....they were right, a whole Chanel section...you gotta go there if you get down that way
omg!!!! I AM A LARGE!!! i acutally did send you a convo on etsy!!! i will say my prayers an hope i win!!!!!!
ann
:)
Going out tomorrow to look for one, but would love to win it!

Natalie
I think it is kismet because a large would be perfect. And like Lindsey said, I am seeing a trip to the Maxx in my near future. Great seeing you at Farm Chicks!
Awesome! Count me in!
And right back at you...I'm giving away a $50 Pottery Barn gift card on my blog...ends tonight so check it out!

Red Alert! The Athens, GA T.J. Maxx has two medium and one small, as of today, so if you live near here...
Donna

TJ rules the school! I am forever spying anthro-esque pretties in there.
I do not want to be entered into the drawing, but I had to comment! :)
I love this give away! This "the shirt" post cracks me up as well. I was so looking forward to seeing all your Farm Chicks pictures and i have to admit I remember thinking I love that shirt, but I wasn't brave enough to ask. So count me in on the give away too please.
That shirt is perfect for our sweltering Florida weather!
what a funky cool giveaway
& if i was caught up on my emails i would have stalked you too.
too flippin cute
but i tell you that all the time don't i?
LOVE the top!

wink
Hi Melanie-
I would love that shirt - a perfect summer frock. I am sure if I win it though, it won't look as good on me as it does you.
When I first saw your shirt I thought it looked familiar! I bought one just lke it at at
TJ MAXX a week or two ago. :)
It really is a pretty top!
Blessings!
Love you shirt! Wish I had smaller boobs to fit in it!! My ohh so skinny sister with THREE kids will love it too
Count me in on all the shirt love too! Thanks for sharing where it was from.
Love it!
Fingers crossed!

Oh....pure love! I'm a large and my fingers are crossed and prayers said!!! Love, love, love it!
What a sweet giveaway!
xoxo Beth
You are very generous! Thank you!! The shirt is darling.
Pick me, pick me!
Love the shirt! Also, I'll have to find a great hat like yours :) First time I've commented... but I adore your blog!
I will make you a trade....
THAT shirt, for my ever so famous Green/pink paisley dress that you loved! deal??? :) ha! ....
I saw the top and instantly fell in love. I had no idea you were receiving such great "press" over the shirt, BUT--I went out today, specifically searching for a top just like it! Talk about subliminal advertising! :) Sadly, I didn't find anything close. I can't believe so many of us were fawning over it! Would be oh so excited to win! Thanks for such a great/fun opportunity.
If I had a TJ Maxx nearby I'd get in my car this instant in search of this perfect summery top. However, the closest one is 2 hours away! ;-( So entering your giveaway is imperative to my summer happiness!! (Well not really but I think you know what I mean) xo~Kristen
oH yes I want it!!! And large would probably fit me better anyway. I think I need to go visit my TJ Maxx and see if they have any.
I would be so lucky to find out that shirt looks as good on me as it does on you! Enter me in the the giveaway and keep up the good work on the blog! Love it as much as the shirt!
Susan
I want it!!!!
Okay, seriously I will admit that I clicked on the thumbnail for this post BECAUSE of that shirt and how cute you looked in the picture. I am for sure gonna check out Maxx if I don't win! =]
oh I love that shirt, and I love TJ Maxx!!!
LOVE this shirt. Great giveaway! Fingers crossed! :) Thanks!!!
I love this shirt and have no Maxx near me :-( so I for sure want to win!
Love it and I need some more style. Pick me! Thanks, shannon
OK...so I ran out to TJ Maxx tonight to find this shirt. I found it...but it's off white/ cream. Is the one you have white or off white?
Oh my goodness!! This top is so beautiful. I would LOVE to win & I wear a size Large! So hope to win. Crossing my fingers. Thanks for hosting such a fabulous giveaway!! xo
it's so cute!! i will be heading to one next week, unless i win.
That is so funny because I remember really liking this shirt when I read your post, too! I don't know if a large will fit, but I'll still wear it if I win it, baby! : )
Wish I had a sister's closet to raid! Love the shirt...so nice of you to think of your followers. Us girls can always use another shirt esp. one as cute as this one!
Fabulous style AND you are so sweet and generous!
It is super duper cute!
I need that top!! It is tooo cute!!
What a fun giveaway - too thoughtful! I love it!
Super Cuteness!!!
Have to laugh because I remember that as I was looking at your Farm Chicks pix I thought "what a really cute shirt, wonder where she got it". Enter me please, I would just love to wint it! Cheri [email protected]
Too funny! I never win anything but what the heck count me in! Glad you had a good time shopping at Farm Chicks!
Jody
ooohhh that is a sweet shirt. Being from Canada - we don't have T.J. Maxx or any of your other 'awesome finds' stores (Tar-jay aka Target is a favourite of mine!)
You look beautiful in that shirt!
: )
LOVE it... and a large is perfect!
Wish me luck!
You would make any shirt look hot. Your a beauty.
I soo want that shirt!!
Wow, what a beautiful summer top! Love it!!
WOW I'm late to the party!!! 122 comments already!?! Ok how cute are you driving that far and buying one for a lucky follower??!! Should I start by telling you how busty I am and that a large would be perfect?? HAA!!! ;)
Great shirt! Ive never even looked at clothes at the Maxx..Im always too busy digging thru their home clearance stuff!
I really love that top & guess what...I am a large! Isn't that a crazy coincidence? I think not...it's a sign. :)
Oh, count me in. What a cute top. I mean really, really.
Me! Me! Me!
Um, I am not exactly a large. . .but XL. . .that shirt is so worth not eating to get in it!
Large....perfect!
Maybe this will be my lucky Monday!
Simply gorgeous...love it
I loved seeing you in that shirt! Your whole outfit was adorable but you always look darling everytime I run into you:) By the way, I wear a large;) Elise
Haha...tooo funny! I remember thinking...didn't I just see a little lace tunic like that at Marshall's/TJMaxx this week? It rocks! You AND your sister have amazing taste in all things pretty!!
I LOVE that shirt... I'm so glad someone else was less self-conscious and asked where you found it!
Guess I'll be making a trip to TJM tomm....but I'll save my receipt if I find it...JUST in CASE!
Love the shirt and wanted to ask until I saw all the comments! Have never, ever, ever won anything in my life so here's to hoping!! :)
Oh how I would love to win that shirt, and large would be great. Melanie, I saw you at Farm Chicks, just did not realize it was you. I wished I had said something, you and your friend looked so darn cute, you two added so much to the whole Farm Chicks experience. I now who you are and when I see you I will say hi. Florence
Love the shirt & love your blog!
I love that shirt..keep my fingers crossed...
Rozmeen
adorable! I love TJ Maxx, but hate digging.
Lace is so decadent...and I will be 5 months pregnant this summer so I would be a happy camper with a large :)
That shop is tooooo far from sunny Spain, so hope I´ll be the lucky one
I can't believe you bought more of them for a give away! I loved the shirt when I saw it! Yeah for us.
I knew everyone was thinking the same thing I was about your shirt. Hey, when it's cute, it's cute! I can't believe how nice you are to buy extra's. We have a "Sisters Closet" nearby and a TJ but winning would be so much sweeter. It could be my every Saturday garage sale good luck shirt! I'm a small, but who cares! Thank you for the chance to win <3 Donna [email protected]
I can always use a new shirt. And living in the deep south lacy strapy is perfect!!!
Christa
It is a gorgeous top. I'd love to win it!!

I thought your shirt was so pretty!

Love it - so feminine and pretty.

Too funny. I also spotted the shirt because I have the same one! Got it in Tj Maxx too. So you don't have to add me in to the giveaway. Just had to tell you! Have a great weekend!
I would love to win this shirt for my neice, she is expecting and would absolutely love it. She could wear it after the baby comes too. She has to wear scrubs at work all day but loves "girly" things, its perfect for her. Size large is perfect for her, not so perfect for me..... LOL
I love soft, sweet shirts like that! Super cute!
Love.The.Shirt!! So beautiful and how nice of you to get one for a giveaway!!
I love that shirt and my only chances of getting it are winning it from you. The nearest TJ Maxx is 2.5hrs from me!!! Crossing my fingers :)
Yet another reason I wish I had a sister....
my daughter would love this top! Thanks so much for the chance to win!
I would LOVE to win that darling shirt!! Thanks for the chance!
sloan (at) sbcglobal.net
LOVE the shirt too .. i'm gonna check my TJ MAXX too !
I am a Large! I think this is the only time I'm so happy to say that! HAHAHAHA. I think I will go to TJ Maxx ...just in case!
I must admit, in your first post I was admiring the shirt and how little you look in your outfit. Afterwards I went looking through your site because I remember you saying you wanted to get in shape for a vacation and I was going to see if you posted what you did, because it worked. You look great!
Oh my gosh! You are the sweetest! I'm going to head out to TJM this morning just in case I'm not the winner - but I'm hoping I am!
Obviously loved the shirt as well.
I love your blog... and your beautiful shirt! I've got two tjmax's in my area... so a trip is in order!
Tooo cute of a shirt...I couldn't wear the large, but I know my mom would look super in it! I will give it to her if i win.
Love the shirt... I really need it!! marcy
Please let me win this shirt!! I just had a baby and have nothing to cover up my rolls. Please, please!!! :-)
I would really love to have that shirt! Please please please... pick me! If not - I am heading to TJ Max 2 hours away.
love the shirt!
SWEET!!
I live in Canada, and don't even have T.J. Maxx, so this is so sweet really.
My friend was suppose to go to the farm chicks, but she lives in Van. B.C. and she only had the day. A little too far : ( Looks like you had so much fun.
Now I truly, not lying, ever enter give aways, but a pretty shirt like that? I would LOVE to own one.
Now it would look totally different on me than on you lol, but I think it would be very very girlie and pretty on a 54 year old!
Love the pics you took of the "fun" you had with all the great gals in your circle of friends.
Have a great weekend Melanie.
Love Claudie from Canada
xoxoxoxo
Must...Have...Shirt...!!!
LOVE IT!!!
That is a great story!!! I have to say... the first thing I thought was OMG.. Melanie looks so cute in her cutoffs, hat and adorable shirt. It looked so Anthro to me:) Gotta love the MAXX!!! My fingers are crossed:)nde
Been to my Maxx boutique and didn't find it! Wow! It's gorgeous! I hope I win it and if so, I can only hope it looks as good on me as it does on you!
Thanks so much for such a fun giveaway!
OMG I've gotta have it! We don't have a TJ Maxx anywhere near here.
Super Cute! I want one! Too bad the closest tj max is over an hour away. I'll cross my fingers.
Too funny! I read your post and couldn't keep my eyes off that shirt. Glad you got so many comments, went out of your way to find one and have now put it as a giveaway! BTW, we don't have TJ Maxx in Canada :(
Love the shirt. Hope I win!
~Sam
Hope it runs small! Love, love, LOVE this shirt!
Wow...I gotta have one too. LOved your farm-chick loot too!!!
Smiles, angie =)
Bloggers are funny, aren't we!! Indeed a perfectly cute summer shirt!! I am an hour and 1/2 from TJ's.....so I'd much rather win than drive!!!

Ha, like everyone else, I too noticed that darling shirt. I'd love to have it. TJ Maxx or bust on Tuesday!
I have that shirt too. I got it at Marshalls about 2-3 years ago. I LOVE it, I always so feminine and pretty in it. You make it look really great!
TJ Maxx - my fav!! very cute shirt & fun give away - thanks so much for thinking of us!!
I need this top for my girlfriend getaway!!!
BEAUTIFUL!!! thanks:)
Oh, please count me in. Love the shirt.
For once, I'm glad I'm a large. Please, please let me win. I could use a frothy little sumthin for summer.
I would love that cute top! But I also love what you said about "junk in your trunk"! That really needs to be turned into a bumper sticker for all of us "junkers"! "I've got junk in my trunk"!
Would love to have that shirt! You make it look great!!
Melaine - Ok, we're ALL drooling over your adorable cami!!!!! Since I've NEVER won ANYTHING in my WHOLE life (hint hint *wink)(and no, I'm not shy), I'd LOVE to win this! It's right up my alley since I usually dress with a boho-flair....just like you. lol!
Thanks for offering it as a great giveaway - and I look forward to hearing from you! LOL!

How cute - thanks for a great giveaway chance!!! ~Marcy
Hahaha. When I read your blog that day I thought to myself "ooooohhhh Ilove her top, she looks beautiful!" I guess many others were thinking the same thing, lol. I went to my TJM today, but after an hour and a half, could not find one, so hope I have a chance to win one from you.
