Vintage giveaway

how cute is this business card!?

Way back in, oh I don't know, maybe February I was looking around Twitter when I came across a tweet by a local fashion blogger who mentioned a giveaway at another fashion blog. I think I just had to retweet the blogger's info and hope that my name was the magic one chosen. I never win anything, so I put it out of my mind and headed over to the blog to see what the fuss was all about.

I had never heard of Odelma Vintage  and was happily surprised at stumbling upon it through a friend's tweet. I found the blog and then a link to an Etsy page. I immediately saw a few pieces of jewelry that I thought were just perfect and at a reasonable price. Then, checking twitter again, I saw that I had won! I won a beautiful gold and rose necklace. Mattie, writer of Odelma Vintage blog, asked for my address and promised to send the necklace my way soon.

Well, I forgot about that promise until my birthday when I received a package from an unknown return address. Inside was this. I love it. Today I wore it paired with my J.Crew elephant necklace.

So thanks, Odelma Vintage! Without your giveaway I might not have found your blog or etsy page..and i'm so glad I did.

It's follow friday on Twitter so I thought i'd make it follow friday on Blogger too :)

If you read my blog please click follow and leave me a comment here. Let me know what you like, dislike, want to read more of, or just say hi. I was thinking the other day of what I would say this blog is about and basically it's just about life. Pretty much mine. But, I hope it can be interesting to others and that you do enjoy reading it.

Last night three parades crashed down St. Charles...and one of them was Muses! I'm so excited to post about my Muses experience...soon.

Have a great weekend everyone!  And Thanks!
