Big Birthday Giveaway! [CLOSED]

It's that time of year again: time for my annual big birthday giveaway! Every October, I love to give my lovely readers a little treat (much more preferable to a trick, if you ask me). My birthday is on Friday, so I'm kicking off my birthday week by giving you all a chance to win some wonderful prizes from some of my favorite brands! Read on to find out how.

the soubrette brunette giveaway

I'm keeping this year's birthday giveaway a bit more *intimate* than in previous years. Really, things have just been so busy that I decided to make it a bit more exclusive and less overwhelming for myself. In the past, I've given away a bunch of smaller prizes for several people, but this year, I've opted to giveaway a HUGE prize to one lucky follower. Here's what's up for grabs!
retro vintage giveaway
The winner will receive:
- Red and Black Pindot "Diana" dress from Unique Vintage
- Your choice of "Estelle" blouse and circle skirt from Heart of Haute
- Purple spiderweb Backseat Baby purse from Sourpuss Clothing
- Wanda Woodward pin + "Really Good Hair Club" print from Dreaming of Johnny
- "Liv" cardigan from Voodoo Vixen

RULES: Enter the giveaway using the Rafflecopter widget below. There are mandatory entries you must complete to be eligible (one of these is that you're a follower of my blog – no unfollowing after the giveaway ends, please). There are also optional entries you can complete to increase your chance of winning. One (1) winner will receive all of the prizes listed above. The winner will be contacted via e-mail, so be sure to provide a valid e-mail address. The winner must respond to my e-mail within 48 hours or a new winner will be chosen. The giveaway is open worldwide and will run from now until 11:59 pm EST on Sunday, October 30th (right on the stroke of Halloween – spooky!).

Thanks for entering and best of luck!

  15. That's come round quickly! Happy birthday for when it comes!!! My favourite type of cake is actually a Chocolate eclair- choux pastry- filled with fresh cream, not the chocolate inside but the cream with the chocolate on top! I'd gladly eat them and no other type of cake!!! My husband hates cream but he loves those strangely enough!!

  22. I hope you have a wonderful birthday. Every year your giveaway rocks. Well to answer your question I personally am not a fan of large cakes. Now cupcakes I'm all over. Crazy I know but to me it seems cup cakes have the right consistency and are always moist. My favorite cupcakes are carrot cake cupcakes. But I can also go with muffins as well. Banana nut and pumpkin muffins are my favorite. I'd take them over a piece of cake any day.
