Alright, who wants something new and pretty to wear? Shabby Apple giveaway!

Brrr, it’s cold today. And the sky is grey. The weather has been a big tease, giving us a few sunny days and giving us the impression that springtime might actually be approaching and that there is light at the end of that long, cold tunnel that is winter. And then, back come the low temps and the grey skies. *sigh*

Despite that, or maybe because of it, I find myself craving spring clothing. Something new, light, pretty. Now, if you are wishing for the same thing, you are in luck, because Shabby Apple has kindly offered to give one of their lovely women’s dresses to a reader of Globetrotting in Heels!

There were so many cute things to pick from, I coulnd’t just pick one, so I picked two. The winner will be able to choose between the Tiber dress

and the Baciami! dress

What do you go for? Classic and nautical, or fun and bright?

All you have to do to enter the giveaway is “Like” Shabby Apple on Facebook, then come back and post a comment telling me you did so (please share your Facebook name) and what your favorite item is on Shabby Apple.

Scarves! and a giveaway

by Elisa on June 24, 2011

Years ago, I found a beautiful burgundy scarf on sale. I bought it without a second thought, and wore it the same day. That’s when I noticed how well that shade went with my chestnut hair, so I experimented with wearing it in my hair.

I have moved a few times since then (including the move to New York and back), and the scarf has been lost in the process – and with it, for some reason, went my headscarf-wearing days. My love of scarves remained, but I haven’t worn a scarf on my head in ages, until I saw this video from The Girls With Glasses, and it inspired me:

So now here I am, thinking I should buy some more square scarves to use for the first two looks, which are perfect for summer! Here are some that I think would look really cute worn like that:
Scarves!

What do you think? Do you ever wear a scarf this way? Would you?

Tell me in the comments – I’ll pick two people and send each of them a lovely print scarf, to wear on their head or on their neck, or however they please :-)

Bonus entries:
- follow me on BlogLovin’
- “Like” Globetrotting in Heels on Facebook
- create a Polyvore set including a scarf and place a link to this post on the description
- post about this giveaway on your blog and include a Polyvore set (as above) or pictures of scarves you like, and include how you’d wear them (3 entries)
- tweet the following: “How do you wear your scarf? Tell @HipMom and be entered to win her #giveaway http://tinyurl.com/HipMom1″

2 winners will be selected by Random.org in 2 week’s time, on July 8th. Good luck!
