win $500 from woolite x polyvore!

calivintage: peter pan

if you’ve been reading my blog for a while (or heck, even if you just stumbled upon it for the first time today), then you know that i have a deep love for all things vintage. my closet is bursting with vintage treasures picked up at thrift shops, vintage boutiques, and flea markets. i like to imagine that if these old rags could talk, they’d each have their own beautiful, rich history to tell. and when i buy a vintage piece, i almost feel honored to be able to continue writing that story. each item feels so special and unique, that sometimes i find myself saving my best vintage for only the most special occasions. i don’t want my prized possessions to rip or fade or disintegrate, but i still want to be able to enjoy them. so of course i always take care and wash them gently so that they will last for many more years to come.

one brand that understands the needs of our most delicates is woolite. and today they’ve asked me to help them host their latest contest in partnership with polyvore. simply create a polyvore collage featuring one of your favorite vintage finds to be entered for a chance to win $500! i’ll be judging the contest myself, and i can’t wait to see the pretty collages that you come up with! click here for the official details!

wearing: vintage dress from milk teeths vintage, karen walker von trapp sunglasses, coach classics leather shoulder purse, chelsea slingbacks from sole society, nars schiap lipstick

more than a feeling swarovski giveaway

calivintage + polyvore + swarovski

today i am decked out in my most romantic getup in honor of my latest partnership with polyvore + swarovski as a host of the more than a feeling contest. and the feeling of the day is love. when i think of love, i immediately picture all of those silly romantic and indulgently excessive things in life, like flowers and chocolates and lace and cake! so what could be more fitting than pulling on a lacy dress to prance around in the rose garden? whenever i stroll through this particular park near my house, there always seems to be some fun photo shoot going on for engagements, weddings, sweet sixteens, or just because. little girls with flowers in their hair, or couples giggling as the photographer directs them to gaze into each other’s eyes. it may be a silly sight, but we all have to indulge in our romantic side every once in a while.

if you’re feeling romantic, then swarovski wants to know: what do you wear to express your love? create a polyvore collage inspired by this sappy sentiment (see my example below) to be entered for a chance to win the swarovski emoti love. i’ll be looking through all of the entries and judging the winner, so i can’t wait to see what you all come up with.  click here to enter!
