To kick off 2016. I have a giveaway of a few of my favorite things - perfect for starting the new year. I don't know about you but when a new year hits I need all the new calendars and paper items to get organized for the year - I picked a few of my favorites to giveaway to one reader.
Also included is a pink winter pom hat and gloves. It hasn't been too cold here yet this year but this past week my hands have been hidden in gloves and I can't seem to get enough winter head gear - I hate having my hair blow in the wind.
The giveaway will run through January 13th. Enter through the rafflecopter at the bottom of this post and remember, every link is one entry closer to winning. Good luck!
Happenings:
- A big thank you to all who commented on yesterday's post. You guys really brought the travel recommendations and I'll definitely be looking back at the ideas for future planning.
- How did everyone do at the Lilly After Party Sale?? Even though I always log on right at 8am I usually wind up way back in line but this time I was around 6,000 (still had to wait about 40 minutes) since I prefer to try on and the sale section in our store is usually pretty full so I took a new approach and went right for a few travel and other accessories that aren't usually available.
- I got a lot of questions on Wednesday's Looks & Life post about where mine and my mom's matching holiday flannel shirts were from - they can be found right here from LL Bean (very cozy).
- Bachelor Favorites?? Mine are Olivia (although I feel like she may end up portrayed as a villain - hopefully she can pull a Michelle Money later on), Amanda, Lauren - the flight attendant and a few more that I can't remember their names - I'm always terrible the first week. The past few seasons haven't been as good as the past in my opinion so I'm really looking forward to Ben's.
- I don't know if a week has ever dragged as much as this one post Christmas break. Bring on the weekend!
Linking up today with the Friday linkups -
Love a giveaway, and these things look adorable! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't have any Bachelor favorites that I can name right now...I stink at the names the first week or so, too.
Happy weekend friend!
Such fun items for the giveaway. That hat and gloves are awesome!! I may be the only person in the US right now not watching the Bachelor. :)
ReplyDeleteI have one of your same favorites for the bachelor but I agree they might edit her to look back! What an awesome giveaway - hope you have a great weekend girl! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to keep track of all the girls the first week haha! I think Lauren the flight attendant might be my favorite as well and I like Olivia. You know Chris Harrison told Ben he has to keep Mandy the dentist and Lace around for our viewing entertainment because those girls are crazy haha
ReplyDeleteI ordered a couple little things from the Lilly sale...what I'm most excited about is a 2016 agenda. Ready to get planning for a fab new year ahead! Thanks for hosting such a fun giveaway! Have a wonderful weekend!!
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaways!

I agree with you: I hate my hair blowing in the wind! It is so fine that it gets suuuuuuper tangly and I hate when it brushes in my lip gloss. And yes, this week has TOTALLY dragged on. I'm ready for Brandon to get home this evening and we have a low-key weekend at home with just us three. (Well, four. Ha!)
ReplyDeleteyes to bachelor discussions! i heard olivia may be portrayed that way but i guess that just comes with the reality tv territory. what a cute giveaway! and hey! we made it to friday finally haha. have a wonderful weekend!

Wooohoo fun giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI had to wait an hour for the Lilly sale by the time I logged on, even though I was on the site right at 8 so I just gave up. I had a meeting at 9 so I knew I wouldn't be able to shop by the time I got in! Can't wait to see the travel stuff you got! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! Have a wonderful weekend!!

Yay for a giveaway! The paper items look so cute. I logged onto the LP sale at like 8:05 on Monday, and the wait was over an hour so I decided that was a sign that I didn't need anything, haha! I got a lot at the sale in August though so I'm not totally lacking on Lilly! Hope you have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteSeriously this week has dragged...TGIF! Have a great weekend!! xx
ReplyDeleteAll of the items in your giveaway are so cute! I especially love all of the notebooks! And yes, this week dragged by so much! I think that this is the first real week I've had since before Thanksgiving! Cheers to the weekend though!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, this week was so long! Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove all of the things in your giveaway!! Have a fab weekend! :-)
ReplyDeleteI am team flight attendant and team news anchor… I forget their names!! One of them got the first impression rose and I have a feeling she will be there until the very end!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun giveaway. I hope you have a great weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! I am a huge papergoods nerd! Fingers crossed I win! Thanks for hosting and have a wonderful weekend! xo
ReplyDeleteI've never shopped the after party sale but it seems like there are so many great deals in it!

Love your giveaway! That plaid shirt was so cute, so glad you linked up to it. Hope this weekend gives you a little reprieve from the long week!
ReplyDeleteLove your giveaway! I get super giddy about calendar and planner things. I'm really looking forward to Ben's season. Olivia is my favorite and I totally agree that she looks like a lot of drama heads her way. I also like flight attendant Lauren, Amanda and Becca. Hopefully this will be a good season. Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI like Olivia as well, but I think you're right... it's looking like she's going to end up being the one who everyone hates.
ReplyDeleteI'm going for Lauren so far! I wanted Red Velvet to make it through tho :(
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun giveaway! I was so sad when I saw that Olivia was going to be the "villain" this season!

What a fun giveaway! Nothing better than new stationary to start the year. Olivia is one of my favorites on Bachelor, too, so we will see what happens. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteWoo hoo! Fun giveaway! Yeah there are a few girls I like but you never know until later. I hope Olivia turns out to be semi-normal. She's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chance to win, Christina! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThankfully, this week went by pretty quick but right now, this afternoon is going by so slow lol I've got to catch up and watch the first episode of the Bachelor this weekend! Thanks for the fun giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the awesome giveaway! I'm excited about this season of The Bachelor - I picked Lauren the flight attendant to win it all! Happy Friday :)
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway, so many cute things. This week was so long, I thought it was never gonna end.
ReplyDeleteI love the giveaway!!

Awesome giveaway! I haven't watched bachelor at all, so I have no favorites yet, but I really need to watch it so many people have talked about it this past week.
