Shabby Apple Giveaway

20 Jun

!!! THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED !!!

Who likes a giveaway? Who likes a Shabby Apple giveaway? EEE me me me me me! Ok, maybe not me… maybe I’m just the host. But I’ve got a sweet treat to give one lucky person – could it be you?

For those of you not familiar with Shabby Apple – we are talking about a fab online store that sells beautiful vintage-inspired dresses. Come, take a walk with me down Beautiful Dress Lane.


Overboard is a classic gingham shirtdress


Ipanema reminds me of something Trudy Campbell would wear while hosting an outdoor dinner party


Admiral makes me die with glee, just a little bit. How cute is that model!?


Che Bella! is reminiscent of my Hawaiian dress reconstruction, except quite a bit more regal – it’s like the casual version of a LBD. Love it!


Ming just makes me want to throw big honkin’ rosettes on every tshirt I own


I guess Academia may be a little off-season, but I had to include it because it looks a lot like my Galaxy dress ripoff. And y’all know I can’t turn down something that reminds me of, well, myself :3

Have I piqued your interest yet? Are you ready to throw down for your own Shabby Apple goody? I’ve got a $50 Shabby Apple gift card that is going to end up in the mitts of one lucky reader! You can pick whatever you want with your gift card – one of the dresses I listed above, or pick something completely different off the site. Dresses aren’t your thing this week? That’s ok, they have separates & accessories too!

To enter, here’s what you gotta do:
1. Like Shabby Apple on Facebook. You must do this to enter the giveaway. Make sure you leave me an email address in your comment so I can contact you if you won!!
2. For a bonus entry, leave a comment & tell me what you would get if you won the $50 gift card. The Facebook entry is mandatory, this one is just because I am nosy as hell 🙂

The giveaway is open to US readers (sorry international pals! I will plan something that includes y’all soon, promise!♥). You have one week to enter; I will close the giveaway on Friday 6/29 and draw a randumb name.

Shabby Apple has also generously offered a coupon code for 10% off any purchase – so even if you don’t win, or don’t live in the US, you can still get on a little deal. Simply enter “lladybird10off” at check-out (and make sure to admire that there is a coupon code with my name on it. Ha! It’s the little things, eh?). This offer is good for a month, so shop your hearts out, y’all!

I think that’s it! Big thanks to Shabby Apple for the awesome giveaway! Good luck, everyone! 🙂
!!! THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED !!!

    Oooh yay! I’m already a Facebook fan, and my very favorite dress is the perfect, spearmint, polka-dotted One For My Baby:)

  7. Jenni Lithgow June 20, 2012 at 10:12 am #

    I just “liked” on FaceBook! I love the “Extra Credit” dress – but also Academia – I think I’d be very torn between those two!

  8. oonaballoona June 20, 2012 at 10:20 am #

    liked as oonaballoona on facebook! i love that trudy campbell number you picked… but i love the comfy stripey skirts up on the front page right now… i started going dream shopping then i made myself stop 🙂

    shame on you for giving me a new dress obsession! 🙂
    but seriously, this dress (http://www.shabbyapple.com/images/product/large/1413_5_.jpg) to die for.
    start listing excuses to buy a new dress now (like that wedding coming up that I was going to sew a dress for but haven’t even bothered to cut out yet…oops)

    I’d already liked them on Facebook! I think I’d go for the White Queen blouse– my printoholism means that I hardly ever bother with sewing neutrals, and therefore, I need some. I like that it’s not your typical white blouse!

    And as for what I’d get…man, I clicked through “Berkshires” to the “Tanglewood” dress (http://www.shabbyapple.com/p-703-tanglewood.aspx) immediately because things named after my home state make me smile, but: that is a great dress, too.

    I’m a long-time shabby apple “liker”. If I was younger I’d splurge for a tinsel town skirt. I own & love the cider dress.

    I liked Shabby Apple on Facebook! I bought a dress from them before and loved it! Right now, I’m lemming their Bernini dress. Looks perfect for summer!
