70's Sweater Giveaway

Today I've reached my 100th post and in honor of that I wanna do a giveaway. I usually struggle to come up with the perfect giveaway prize that appeals to all personalities, shapes, and sizes, so today I ignored all that a selected something that I'm in love with at the moment.

My thrifting adventures have proved my love for vintage sweaters to be higher and higher than ever before so to keep in tune with my thrifting spirit I'm giving away one of my favorite 70's college sweaters. It was instant love when I sorted down the sweater aisle and landed on this beauty and instant sadness when I tried it on to find it didn't fit. So sad for me, so good for you!


The sweater is approximately an xsmall or small with a 34" bust and really tiny 6" cuffs. I'm sorry if your a medium or larger; I'll do another giveaway for you guys later this month! The contest is open to all of my readers and will end at noon next Saturday (the 16th). To enter just leave a comment with the following information.

I adore this photo for some reason, something about the space-age looking man and the fabulously dressed woman on the right hanging out with a skeleton just makes me smile every time I look at it!

I absolutely adore how food is being infused into designs these days. And it serves as a great form of inspiration for an amateur designer like me. I hope you like it too!

Congrats on your 100th post by the way. Am looking forward to more entries in 2010. Cheers :)

I cannot get enough of this remixed music video of the movie "Hook"! Seriously my favorite Youtube video of all time.

This is a cute sweater, and would go marvelously with a suede skirt, tights and boots. (I'm from Arkansas, too, btw, and I've been really enjoying your blog-not only is it inspiring, but it's local!)

I'm not getting married any time soon, but I love to look at wedding photos for fun. I dream of having a wedding just as rustic and quirky as these two-and I LOVE the tall boots with the dresses!
