Le Bomb Shop Instagram Giveaway! [CLOSED]

I normally run giveaways through my blog and Rafflecopter, but I'm trying something a little bit different today: I've teamed up with retro retailer Le Bomb Shop on an awesome Instagram-based giveaway! I've listed the rules of the giveaway here on the blog and on my Instagram account, but you'll have to hop over to Instagram to repost the image + follow the instructions to enter. (If you aren't an Instagram user, I promise I'll have another giveaway you can enter very soon!) Read on to find out more...

If you aren't already familiar with Le Bomb Shop, they carry all sorts of vintage-inspired pieces and pin up style staples (often for a better price than other retailers). They have tons of popular dresses, swing skirts (like the one I'm wearing here) and the cropped cardigans we all love, and they're often offered in multiple colorways and style variations. I like to have a good mix of affordable staples and higher-end pieces in my wardrobe, and Le Bomb Shop is always one of the first places I look for inexpensive items to supplement what I already have in my closet – especially if I'm looking for separates or layering pieces in a specific shade. There's so much variety to choose from, and one lucky person will win a $50 gift card to spend at Le Bomb Shop!

Friday Favorites #129

Hooray, it's Friday again! I have some particularly fun finds in store for this week's Friday Favorites post, starting with these tea-riffic new releases from Kate Spade!

Some of these would pair perfectly with this teapot print dress:

These brooches are fantastic!

These purses are downright buzz-worthy!

I adore this springy skirt!

I may or may not have already ordered one of these bags... but I love them all!

I'm absolutely obsessed with this vegetable print dress.

I love carbs (and also Oprah's Weight Watchers commercial) and might need this brooch.

This harlequin print skirt by Shawna Lay Designs is everything.

Would it be totally bonkers to buy this purse when I currently have no marriage prospects?

And finally... one of each of these, please!

Jammin'

Most of you know that I'd be hard-pressed to find a food-themed outfit that doesn't make me swoon. But when I saw this skirt from Dangerfield – complete with its delectable croissants, jars of cherry jam and polka dotted bows – I'm pretty sure I let out an audible yelp and waited all of 2 seconds to purchase it. I was absolutely powerless to resist the urge of these buttery breakfast treats and accompanying marmalade... which is a sentiment that also applies for when I'm faced with these foodstuffs in real life! And of course, as I am nothing if not thematic, I had to wear my Erstwilder preserves brooch to complete this yummy ensemble.

This skirt is a perfect staple for spring and summer; the fabric is a lightweight cotton, and the black and white checked pattern is so picnic-esque. I sized up to a UK 14 in this skirt after looking at the provided size chart, and though it fits fine, I probably would have been okay with my normal UK 12 as well. Since Dangerfield is based in Australia, I was afraid of receiving a too-small skirt, and I always remind myself that it's easier to have something taken in, if need be. As it is, it totally works (though I swapped out the belt it came with for something a bit sturdier) and, as I like to say, it leaves me with "eating room!"

Twinkle

Although I don't own many galaxy printed pieces, I think they're incredibly pretty – and that's especially true of this circle skirt from Les Choses Délicates! This Canadian-based e-shop specializes in classic silhouettes using modern fabrics and contemporary touches. The garments are handmade (and are 100% cotton), and because I believe wholeheartedly in the importance of supporting small businesses and fellow artists, I'm so thrilled I got a chance to work with Sarah, the designer and founder of Les Choses Délicates.

A bit about this awesome skirt: it's an extremely well-made piece (with pockets, yay!), and I love how this print is both distinctive and versatile. It could easily be worn with a fuller petticoat for a more dramatic look, but since it's a fairly lightweight fabric and holds its shape well, it looks great without one too. I believe Sarah may have changed the sizing for her skirts since I put in my order – each skirt is now custom-made according to your waist measurement, which is a great feature; comparatively, I used a size chart she provided and may have overestimated what size I'd need, as the size 10 is slightly too big without a belt. However, I've already gotten a lot of wear out of this skirt (I wore it out to dinner the other night with this top and loved the combination), so it's certainly not a very noticeable discrepancy – and I'd rather have some breathing/eating room! This print is currently sold out (it'll be back in stock soon!), but there are many other cute designs to choose from in her Etsy shop (and she does custom orders, too!).

I guess I'm sort of a galaxy print convert now... what's your take on this popular print?

Have a wonderful start to your week!

Friday Favorites #128

Happy Friday, friends! I honestly hate April Fool's Day, so you'll be getting no pranks from me – just fun stuff! 

Here's some of what I've been loving this week:

These Nila Anthony novelty bags definitely get my seal of approval.

And this umbrella print skirt is so much fun!

These bowling shirts from Campbell Crafts are adorable!

How gorgeous are these heels?

As a lover of all carbohydrates, I might need this pin set.

Is it weird that I really love these ridiculous Care Bear heels?

I guess if you have to have a selfie stick... it should be a pink cat-shaped one with polka dots.

These retro bags from Collectif are just darling.

I love this seashell dress from Retrospec'd (and the fact that it could pass for real vintage)!

Aaaand I really want to read this.

Have a great weekend!
