Okay, I’ve got to say it.
If 5 years ago you told me I’d be celebrating 5 years of owning my own business and that of all things it would be running a website, well, I would have told you that you were crazy…
But. Here we are. FIVE years. And I truly can’t believe that my passion has turned into a business. Not without its up and downs, of course, which we’ll get into, but right now I just want to say THANK YOU!
The best part of being in the online space has been being able to connect with you. Whether it’s through emails, my newsletter, Instagram, comments, or my Facebook group, I feel like I know you. We talk houses, body image, kids, life, and My Chic Obsession wouldn’t be what it is without you, the readers, and all of your support. So thank you!
I really wanted to drive home my appreciation for you which is why I’m doing 5 days of giveaways to celebrate 5 years!
Every day this week, Monday to Friday, I’m going to give something away. These are all items I put thought into because I wanted to give you something you would love. There’s no company sponsoring me. I paid for all of this myself!

Monday-Friday there will be a new blog post sharing a bit about my journey as well as announcing the prize for the day and rules of entry! So make sure you come back daily to get in on the action. I just can’t wait to announce the Grand Prize on Friday. 🙂
Without further ado…
Today’s prize!

I know many of you love French style as much as I do and in the warmer weather, vintage sunglasses and a straw bag seem to adorn every Parisian woman’s outfit! And I know you’ve seen your fair share of those items around this blog.
Even if you don’t want to use the straw bag as a purse, you have so many other options too! I love how versatile they are. Bring it to the farmer’s market to hold all of your veggies and fresh flowers. Use it for a beach day or as a picnic basket. Even use it as decor in your home!

Hi! I happened upon this blog while googling how to capture an effortless, chic French girl style. Your capsule wardrobe lists have really helped me up my game AND think about how to make wise choices for sustainability and long-term use. You’ve helped me with more than a few investment pieces.
What I’m passionate about is learning. I’m a voracious reader, but most of my learning centers around travel: learning about new cultures, foods, art, languages, and landscapes. I feel most alive when I’m exploring something new.
Thanks for doing what you do, Carolyn!
Dear Carolyn, I am passionate about France and all things to do with French Chic Style. Your MY Chic Obsession website has made me feel like I have a home with like-minded women who are as passionate about and in love with French style – whether clothing, lifestyle or eating – as I am! Thank you for making it possible and all the very best going forward!
I’m passionate about my health, love of family, learning and living a simple yet elegant life. Choosing things such as clothing or for my home that give me confidence, ease, style and that are classic makes life chic and elegant. I love your posts, information on items and where to purchase them.
Thank you.???
I am passionate about incorporating looking my best, being my best & doing my best each day in the “daily of dailies”.
Time listening 4 God, exercise, fresh air, plants, pets, healthy foods, comfort& cozy for myself & those around me.
I am passionate about making the most of everyday. Appreciation for the small.
Hi Carolyn
I am a late starter to all things fashion, looking good and investing in myself. During lock down i found myself reading blogs, watching videos, YouTube and following fashionistas such as yourself. I am now fully focussed and passionate about not just my own appearance, reviewing and reorganising my wardrobe, but also helping others via the blogs/facebook groups …as woman we lack so much confidence and with just a few encouraging comments we can help each other overcome our anxieties.
I have two passions the first one is traveling, when we will be allowed to travel we want to goi to Madrid and then to Morocco ! The next passion I have is music. I love to sing and play my ukulele!
Travel, reading, cooking, tennis and family are my passions.
This is a great question for helping me focus on that very thing. I just ended a relationship with my S.O. after 15 years. My passion now is self-care, finding meaning in each day, my family and the future since I want to make the most of the next 2 or 3 decades.. I know there are wonderful things awaiting if I keep my eyes and heart open. Looking my best each day helps me feel good about myself and contributes to my overall positive feelings and how I project to the world.
I love that I found MCO at the beginning of the pandemic lockdown and how reading it has helped give me hope that the day would come again for fashion, fun and travel. Sharing her days with the 2 little boys, house remodel, etc. is a fun peek into Carolyn’s life.
Good afternoon from Athens Greece!
My passion is life- meeting new people, new cultures, traveling; talking with people, listen to what they have to say (even a simple good morning will do the trick). I like making people smile; helping them feel comfortable, at peace, relaxed. I try to help as much as i can, people or animals in need. That way i feel that my life has a real purpose here on earth.
Sending my warmest thoughts to you!
I am passionate about makeup, music, family, faith. And recently, since I started following you, I am renewing my passion for chic fashion. Getting ready for the day or for an event, doing my skincare routine and makeup, and putting on a cute outfit is self-care for me!
Happy Monday!
I’m passionate about my faith, family, friends and fashion.
Travel is in there somewhere. I absolutely love fashion
and am passionate about effortless style, especially French.
Thank you for your inspiration on how
to put it all together.
I am passionate about encouraging others!
I’m passionate about communication both in my Personal life and professional life.
I am passionate about baking and cooking. I love finding new recipes and trying them. I love making people feel loved through me cooking them a good meal. I also love cookies, I mean who doesn’t right.
I’m passionate about creating a meaningful life for my loved ones… Filled with beautiful experiences, kindness and grace. After an international career dedicated to communicating with people, I am (hopefully) letting the universe speak to me as to what is inspiring and important.
I’m passionate about becoming a classy person, both with my style and my behavior. I want everyone around me to feel loved and welcomed. I also want to have that really chic french girl style, and be able to put together outfits withease!
I am most passionate about learning. I live to look for ways daily to grow knowledge!
I am passionate about teaching preschoolers. I love helping them be more confident as they gain independence and instilling a love for learning through their natural curiosity. My energy is lifted when I know what I am wearing accurately reflects who I am.
I am passionate about supporting other. women.
I am passionate about food, style and my family.
Right now I am passionate about losing my 21 quarintine pounds so I can once again wear my amazing, beautiful wardrobe that I have collected over the past 40 years, including a fine winter coat and numerous silk blouses and dresses!
Happy 5 years!! Ahh, thinking over the last 5 years of MCO makes me reminiscent but I’ll save that for tomorrow’s trip down memory lane.
I’m passionate about being intentional in all areas of life, especially motherhood!
I am passionate about living my best chic life, DIY projects and finding extraordinary ways to use ordinary items.
I am passionate about the final act of my life to be the best part of my life just like in the theater. I have the time and the resources to make this come true. At 78 I have learned that there are few role models for me so I decided the purpose of this part of my life is to set the bar high for those who follow. the current rhetoric is frightening–doom, gloom, and low expectations. IT’S NOT TRUE. One reads about after 40 or after 50 as the beginning of the end. Don’t accept this. Look around. There are many of us that have been past menopause longer than we were fertile and bearing children. There is a whole lifetime after raising children. Grandchildren can be one delicious part, but so is traveling, falling in love, realizing those impossible dreams (writing a best seller, learning to paint, having your poetry published, or rebuilding a 1955 T-bird). Take care of yourself now and keep dreaming. The best is yet to come.
I’m passionate about living life every day as an Adventure!
I am passionate about having a passion filled retirement! I was a stay at home mom for 10 years ( and loved it), then went back to work for 20. I love caring for our home, our yard, our children and grandchildren, and traveling & fishing with my husband. Life is delightful.
Hi everyone! My name is Jean! I am passionate about bringing kindness and warmth into the world. I love engaging in wellness practices like yoga and meditation, and I am currently learning about functional medicine nutrition. Soon I hope to formally continue learning about nutrition at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. I love that wellness practices and learning about nutrition are two concrete things that allow me to serve others, fill my heart with great joy and peace, and connect me to being well 🙂
I’m passionate about classic style, both in clothing and interior design. But it’s not easy. I find that I have to constantly keep myself in check, consciously steering clear from the latest trend (in clothing and home goods). Maintaining a clear idea of the classic requires discipline and constant reminders of the classic design I want to achieve. Checking in to your site really helps keep focused. Less is more!
Congratulations on your first 5 years! Well done!
There are so many things I am passionate about. I love to travel to new and exciting places; something I couldn’t afford in my younger years. I love to paint. I took water color classes years ago and it became a favourite creative outlet. I love to style my home. After all, it is the place we come home to every day and wake up to every morning so I believe our surroundings should give us pleasure. And not to place it last but how I dress. I want to feel confident and beautiful for myself and to those I love. I stay on top of trends but wear what suits my body type, lifestyle and aesthetic. I now pick my clothes more carefully and try to buy the best I can afford on my budget. Oh, and how could I not place my family at the top of this list. I love my husband and children with all my heart and spending time with them is my top priority. I guess you could say I’m a very passionate person. Life is to be enjoyed and I want to hold onto every minute.
Hello! So much passion here! I love reading what everyone has written. 🙂 I’ve enjoyed MCO so much so Happy 5th Birthday!
I’ve been passionate about Healing my entire life. I am a minister and work with others helping them heal their hearts, minds, past through forgiveness work. It has been very rewarding. It’s so wonderful to read the wide range of good work/love that everyone here is involved in.
I am passionate about my faith.
I am passionate about redecorating my house when my remodel is finally finished!
I’m passionate about cooking healthy meals and teaching my family about nutrition and healthy lifestyle
I’m passionate about elegance, without being flashy and drawing attention. I’m also passionate about effortless clothing, and love attention to detail, fine tailoring, and classy and under stated clothing.
I surf the internet, but always find myself coming back to My Chic Obsession for help in dressing, whether a scarf style, fragrances, accessories and what to put in my closet where I go, and find I cannot find anything suitable to wear.
But now, since following the great advice you give Carolyn, I put much more thought into my purchases. And love the things that I know I will wear and mix and match them.
I would love to see an article about wearing sweaters backwards. A woman who bought a cardigan sweater did just that and it was beautiful buttoned at the back, and it was modest and a very ingenious way to wear the sweater differently.
I am passionate about keeping my yoga practice consistent. It keeps my level of gratitude approaching where it needs to be!
I am passionate about my kids’ education and giving them a simple upbringing.
I am passionate about embracing who I am as a biracial woman! I love playing with different fashion styles and hairstyles. I did not use to be confident in who I was and didn’t have a lot of people who looked like me that I could look up to. My mom sent me your Instagram page one day and I absolutely loved it because you have a chic modest style and are also a boss babe! I hope that I can be an encouragement and role model to little girls who look like me and be confident in who God made me to be 🙂
I’m passionate about finding out of a kind pieces while thrifting! The thrill of the hunt makes my day every time I go shopping.
I’m passionate about “leveling up” my life right now!! Better job, better relationships, taking better care of my physical health, and improving my living space!
Hello Hello! Bon jour! I am most passionate about learning, cooking, French inspired fashion and culture, global adventure motorcycling, Seattle Seahawks and designer handbags 🙂 Keep up the good work on here and Congratulations to 5 years!
What I am passionate about is animals. I could care for the smallest animals and be happy with myself about it. Like a few weeks ago I helped out a baby squirrel who fell out of its nest and cared for her for a week until another one fell out and then one more. We ended up taking to wildlife center in our hometown area so they could get better care. I have 2 cats, 3 dogs and 2 potbelly pigs. If I could have more animals I would have a whole house full of them. That is what I am passionate about all animals I love and adore them as much as people these days haha.
Maternal Mental Health! ?
Happy 5 year anniversary!! That’s such a happy occasion. I am so glad I found you. I am passionate about beautiful style, classic fashion that makes me feel beautiful.
I am passionate about everthing in life, i am very curious, i love fashion specially creating clothing with my sewing machine and my imagination, i am very grateful for your help with my chic obsession.,Happy anniversary
Hello to everyone from Montrea l,Quebec ,Canada
i love you!!!
I am passionate about thrifting, nearly all my clothes, shoes and purses are thrifted items. I love the Parisian look and your blog has helped me tremendously with working my new, classic style! Thank you! I also love to refurbish what many would call ‘junk’ furniture and turn it into something beautiful and eclectic. So unique, rewarding, and bonus—great for the environment!
Becoming the best “me” possible at this stage of my life is my passion. I’ve taken control of my weight (lost 200lbs after the age of 60), which in turn means now searching for my style. I spent far too many years unable (or unwilling) to have any sort of style and just bought what fits. I now find what used to be a tiring chore of clothes shopping to be fun.. I found your site during my search for styling tips and appreciate you very much!
I’m passionate about taking care of my two grandchildren ages 3 years old and 10 months old!
Congrats on Five Fabulous Years of sharing your expertise and inspirations! I am passionate about being my BEST self. Related to health, wellness, style, skin care, gentle aging habits, faith, patience, friendships, love for my husband, and balance. I’m a work in progress but I try to celebrate my progress and successes.
I’m from Terrebonne,, Quebec, Canada. I was asking myself what in the world was I passionate about! Well, the first one would be learning. I am curious about history, politics, sociology, feminism, Hygge living, writing, reading and fashion. I used to sew my clothes from age 16 until 42 y.o. I still am passionate about nature, hiking and I’d like to go camping again.
¿Qué te apasiona? Hola Carolyn! respondiendo a tu pregunta. Me apasiona haberme descubierto a mi misma en el estilo Frances. Al igual que a ti, me siento identificada, es algo que me hace sentir con energía, feminidad y elegancia. Utilizar modelos clásicos y atemporales siento que son parte de mi y no que estoy imitando o tratando de ser alguien diferente a mi.
Gracias por tu blog! me encantas tus publicaciones!
Saludos Alejandra desde Talca, Chile.
I’m passionate about helping people uncover their best selves. ♥️Thanks for doing this giveaway & congrats on 5 years!
I am passionate about wellness, about living a healthy, balanced life, so that I can feel comfortable and confident in my own skin. Balance helps me truly enjoy the beauty in life and also helps me persevere through the challenges.
Animals! First and foremost, my two kitties, but all animals – dogs, elephants, octopuses, pangolins, ravens. I love them all.
I am passionate about my family. I try to set an example for my children and grandchildren that shows making people you love feel special is important. Living a stylish life with beautiful things every day shows you care enough to do the extras.
Hi, Congratulations with your 5 years! I am passionate about becoming a classy and elegant woman, not just in the way I dress, but also in how I treat others in the way I would like to be treated.
I am also passionate about being the beat wife and mother I can be.
Have a wonderful day! ?
I’m passionate about writing, my family, and my work as a Speech-Language Pathologist!
I am 65 and about to retire but I love being fashionable and am enjoying putting outfits together! So I guess I’m passionate about fashion!
I am passionate about children and their rights as human beings! As a foster parent and child advocate, it is heartbreaking to see what these beautiful souls have endured and survived. I am passionate about ending the vicious cycle that doesn’t allow them the time, nurturing, mentoring and resources they need in order to heal, grow and become the people they were intended and long to be! Children are the future and the future is now!
Congratulations on your 5th anniversary! I am passionate about educating children and adolescents. They deserve our best care and attention, and we need to remind them that learning is joyful. We should encourage them to face the future with a sense of hope and optimism.
Congratulations on your 5 year anniversary!!!! The first thing that comes to mind is my boys 23 and 25. I love them more than anything and I am so proud of the young men they have become!!!
Enjoy every second with your two children: it goes by in the blink of an eye!!
I am passionate about my grandchildren (four of them, ages 6-10) and being the best version of me that I can possibly for them. I want to inspire them to be the best versions of themselves.
I’m passionate about my family, friends, gardening, and feeling good about myself by making an effort ever day (in retirement).
Travel! Right now that’s impossible so instead of planning trips, I’m planning travel capsule wardrobes for when it’s time to fly!
I’m passionate about living into my future self, my true self and who do I want to be. Not just a good wife or mother or hard working colleague, I want to be elegant, confident, worldly and passionate woman who lives everyday like it’s the best day I’ve ever experienced!
Sending big congratulations Carolyn! Xx
Carolyn, I am very passionate about my chic, classy, French style. Nothing is more joyful than spending an afternoon “playing” in my closet and coming up with new ways to mix and match my predominately black, white, gray and denim blue wardrobe. The time flies by when I’m in my creative element.
I’m passionate about being intentional in life, the newest area being motherhood.
What a thoughtful question – what am I passionate about? Being authentic is something I am very passionate about. How I feel about myself is not dictated by a label or a fashion of the moment, but by how I am inspired by to shine in my own gifts and my own light. It was a struggle to get to a place emotionally where I can live my best life with ownership and courage. What I love about French fashion in general and this newsletter in particular is that it celebrates a simpler classic aesthetic that speaks to any woman.
I’m passionate about being authentic!
I want to be real whether it’s my style, being there for my family, or serving others.
I’m passionate about life, jumping out of bed in the morning to face a new day.
Loving my clothes that give me the confidence to do anything.
Appreciating what I have, family , friends, opportunities to travel, food, wine and all othet experiences.
Going to bed with. A Smile remembering my day.
I am passionate about getting my life and style goals back on track. During the pandemic, I took time for myself to work out, bought the expensive jeans, and cleared out the closet of junk for more quality items, all in the name of “I am worthy!”….and then my Dad passed away in June. Left with lots to take care of, my goals got side tracked. No more time for manicures, no more time for frivolity that was fun and light, and no more self care moments just for me. Fall brings a new opportunity for more structure and focus on what I had begun about a year ago and not been able to finish.
I am passionate about being a positive role model for my daughter. It is important to me that she grows up knowing how to have a strong voice for injustice.
Happy five year anniversary. I’m Jackie and I’m passionate about living life to the fullest. I love being relaxed and happy with something to look forward too. Fashion, people, travel, and design are things that bring me joy. I enjoy dressing for the occasion with beautiful makeup and I enjoy simple elegance and a relaxed style of life. I am passionate about beautiful gardens, flowers, vintage jewelry, vintage china, and vintage furniture mixed with modern pieces and good food. Entertaining with family and close friends make me happy. I just turned 70 and I feel best when I am fulfilled mentally, spiritually, and physically. I enjoy travel to Europe and the Caribbean and indulging in their culture; and learning about other people and places.
My passion is finding out the history of my family. There have been so many interesting characters including a Gt Grandmother who was a designer of ladies hats. She and her sister owned a business together, one a dressmaker and my Gt Grandma with her hats. I often wonder if this is where my other passion – fashion – comes from. It has followed me all my life and I think it always will. I believe that having good style is part of our personality and it is always there regardless of our age.
I’m passionate about cooking. I’ve only been cooking since I was in my 30s and had to learn due to health problems. Now I LOVE finding and trying new recipes, especially from blogs.
I am passionate about human rights! Especially the right to life, the elderly, children in foster care. I want to advocate for those who need an advocate.
I am passionate about nature & learning. I am in the midst of a career change and the dialogue has been a difficult adjustment to say the least! That and trying to study for our state exam while being a married mom of 4 while working full-time…trying to study when I can to help us become more financially sound, but always seeking nature to come back to my zen & solace. ♥️
I am passionate about reading! I am definitely a book hoarder. Styling my bookcases and buying beautiful books is something that brings me joy. Reading has definitely made the last 18 months much less difficult than it might otherwise have been.
I’m passionate about my job, High School French teacher! I get to share my passion for language and culture and I’ve expanded my knowledge about the world in order to be a better teacher (I’m going to Senegal next summer on a teacher travel trip).
I am passionate about progressing. I feel stuck when I’m not working towards something to better myself or help someone else in their life. This applies to all aspects of my life: learning new things for my job, working out, focusing on health, financial goals, assisting people with their goals, etc. It’s all about happiness, moving forward, and progressing in life!
I’m passionate about travel — especially to the beach! I love learning about new cultures, exploring new places and participating in new experiences. Traveling requires me to get organized, slow down, and enjoy my surroundings. I love planning a trip, researching accommodations, food, and things to do, plus reading travel guides and selecting a book to enjoy. The straw bag and glasses would be perfect to use on my next trip! Thank you!
I am passionate about authentic connection and community! I also love style, music, romance 🙂
I am passionate about writing stories of love and recently published my first novel.
I’m passionate about cooking and baking! I love trying new recipes and cuisines. I just subscribed to the New York Times cooking app and I’ve already made a few new recipes that turned out great. Now I’m eagerly awaiting pumpkin and apple recipes for Autumn.
I’m passionate about travel. At one point, I was even a travel agent! I love exploring the world and learning about different cultures. It has been difficult and challenging not being able to travel during COVID. At the same time, I have enjoyed taking smaller trips and traveling locally. Waiting for the day when I can travel back to Paris!
I am passionate about taking good care of my body. At 55 years old, I know that having your health is everything in life. Eating the right foods, getting plenty of sleep, and moving my body daily through exercise, yoga, and/or pilates, keeps me younger than my years.
I am passionate about life and the beauty/joy that we find there. I also try to be purposeful and is why I am also passionate about working with foster youth as a CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate). Helping these kids feeds my soul in so many ways. I was a CASA for 7 years in California and will do so now that I’m living in Arizona. Leave the place in better shape than you found it 🙂
I’m passionate about enjoying my retirement, rediscovering my personal style and living life to the fullest!
I am passionate about books and parenting!!
I am passionate about my Pug, I am passionate about my garden. But most of all I am passionate about my family and the wonderful love that we share.
I hope this post is not a duplicate – I had answered Question 1 yesterday but wasn’t sure it was posted and don’t see it now. So here goes – I’m passionate about travel, seeing new places and experiencing different cultures. So I like how you bring in the French influence to fashion and help us keep things simple with our outfits. Thanks – you are great!
I am passionate about living a simplistic life with no attachments. Less is best.
Congratulations on your anniversary. The think I am most passionate about is my family. Teaching them to always be kind
I am pasionate about finding stylish suitable clothes for women in their senior years
I am passionate about growing older with style and my health! Not only do I want to look my best. I want to feel my best!
I am passionate about food and cooking and reading about history and my husband! (Btw I absolutely adore this blog!)
I am passionate about finishing college and finally be able to earn my own money so I can buy nice clothes. I don’t even need expensive or branded ones. I like buying from thrift shops or from stores that are affordable. Beautiful pieces can be found everywhere, we just have to know how to style them.
I am passionate about living day by day and enjoying every minute.
I am passionate about helping people with Intellectual and developmental disabilities obtain an independent and inclusive life within their community! I have dedicated 27 years in the field!
I’m passionate about helping women going through infertility treatment and post partin depression

Aw, thats so nice!! I love the prizes. I am passionate about becoming the best version of myself, so I can set up the best example to my baby daughter, and raising her to be a great human being to help change the world.
I am passionate about my kids being the best they can. thank you
I am passionate about my family and my community. What we give comes back to bless us in so many ways that we often don’t recognize. The smile I get from my neighbor may be the one thing that makes my day better. The customer that I help with a minor problem might be the highlight of their day. We never know just how much the little things we do affect others.
I’m passionate about being kind, listening to others and smiling!
