Good morning, shoppers! Can you believe we’re to get more snow today? Ugh. Fortunately, there is happy news to share when it comes to another subject having to do with white stuff … Daily Candy has just unveiled their latest site, Daily Candy Weddings! And, not only that, but they’ve teamed up with Crate & Barrel to offer the $100,000 Ultimate Wedding Contest! All of the details are here, including the scoop on the seriously awesome prizes for the runners-up, including the honorable mention winner.

That’s not the only good news to share today, though. Get a load of these sales:

Bluenile.com: The code “JEWELRY10″ will score you a 10-percent discount on the site’s Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gifts.

Chickdowntown.com: The code “CD70″ equals 70-percent savings on regular-priced items, and the code “ADD40″ means an additional 40-percent discount on already-reduced items through 11:50 p.m. this Thursday. NOTE: All sales are final.

Skinstore.com: The code “LUV20″ will snag you a 20-percent discount on a boatload of skincare and other beauty items site-wide. Speaking of skincare, if you haven’t entered our Sensational Winter Skin Contest, do so now. For simply sharing your winter skin saviors, you could win a $100 gift card to Beau Totale Salon & Spa!

Oh, and a few reminders:

First, remember Crystal Couture is happening this week. Were any of you able to check out the first-night festivities last evening?

Second, ladies, don’t forget that this Saturday is the Old Town Boutique District’s Warehouse Sale! You DO NOT want to miss it!

Third, the wait is almost over. Tomorrow night, we’ll be able to shop the winning line of Launch My Line at 10 p.m. on Rue La La, right after the show (Bravo, 9 p.m.)!

Ps. Speaking of fashion-focused television, did any of you catch the premiere of Kell on Earth last night?
