Purse On Us

*Fanfare*

We here (ie: me) at FGLNCT headquarters (my bedroom) are proud to announce our first ever giveaway which is held in conjunction with chickdowntown.com. No, they are not a plus size retailer and only carry clothing up to a size US14/ XL-  BUT they do have a good selection of stylish  accessories and what I’m especially feeling are their clutch bags by Moyna. I’m a total clutch bag fiend and am completely unable to stop buying them so they are right up my street.

Like the bag below?

Well I have one to give away! Unfortunately, the competition is only open to U.S residents, (I can hear the collective moans of readers from the rest of the world) but everyone else- fear not. I will be running other competitions in the future that will be open to everyone regardless of location.

To enter the contest all you have to do is leave a comment on this post to say you want to enter. Simples! The contest will end on Thursday 23rd July, 9pm GMT where a name will be drawn at random so get your entries in now!

I’m not a label whore by any means.  In fact, I prefer to be discreet about expensive things and I don’t like noticeable labels or branding.

Brown’s Focus collaborated with designer Oonagh O’Hagan to create these totes with popular designer clutches screenprinted onto tote bags.  I really am not totally sure of what to think of this, but I like the “I’m not a plastic bag” bags I am sure these will be popular amongst a certain sect .$80 though??? For a canvas tote? I think you would need a few screws loose to drop that kind of change on that.  My guess is that they are charging a lot because they know they have pending lawsuits with the original designers. I highly doubt LVMH, Karl, & crew OK’ed these.

Hey,

I have a little bit of delicous Wonderland Boutique-shaped news to share with you all!  I somewhat oddly, owe it all to Twitter, but I’m about to have some of my designs stocked in an actual boutique!  The lovely Aimee of I am…Boutique got in touch with me recently and a few tweets later, we’re in the middle of working out a wholesale deal!  I am beyond excited to be doing this, it’s always been a bit of a dream of mine to have my creations for sale in an actual bricks and mortar store, and soon enough that’s going to come true.  I’m honestly so thrilled about it, as I’ve never had much faith in my little corner of Etsy before now, but fingers crossed this much-needed boost will inspire me to enhance my store and my brand and take Wonderland Boutique just as far as I can take her.  So, come Christmas, if you’re in the Prestwick area and you have a hankering for a Clutch Bag or Coin Purse – then just head over to I am… and snap up a piece of Wonderland!

As part of our little endeavour, Aimee and I have joined forces on a fabulous giveaway of some Wonderland Boutique goodies!  There is a Clutch Bag and matching Coin Purse up for grabs over at her wonderful blog Things a Boutique Owner Sees, both are  in my trademark polka dot print and have ribbon trim and buttons galore:

WONDERLAND BOUTIQUE AND I AM… GIVEAWAY

 All you need to do to be in with a chance of winning, is head on over to the Wonderland Boutique blog post and leave a comment there – it is as easy as that!  However, if you really love them and want extra entries then Tweet about the giveaway if you are on Twitter and post a link to this post on your own blog – each gets one more entry into the giveaway!  The giveaway is open worldwide and will close on 28th July 2009.

Good luck!
