My 200th post and a very special giveaway!

This contest is now CLOSED. Winner will be announced on Friday May 18th. Best of luck to all who entered!

Hello, my sweet ones,

Since I started blogging in October of 2009 my life–and my blog–have undergone some very exciting and unexpected changes. I never knew where this journey would take me but I’m pleased that 200 posts later I have developed some wonderful relationships with so many of you and have gotten to know you on such a unique level. For those of you who have reached out with support, kind words, virtual *hugs*, a raised glass, a sympathetic ear… I simply cannot ever thank you enough.

But I’ll try to come somewhat close.

I reached out to Shabby Apple not too long ago after drooling on my keyboard and clicking through the many dresses, accessories, skirts, and swimwear they had available on their Web site. I have also entered just about every Shabby Apple giveaway I have seen posted at the homes of many of my favorite bloggers because I am just obsessed with their clothes. OBSESSED, PEOPLE! Their dresses are stylish, sexy, sophisticated, and perfect for spring/summer. I love the whimsical feel of the Mad Hatter line, the elegant shapes and earthy tones of the Yosemite dresses, the off-the-set-of-Mad-Men styles in the Skyscraper collection and this. THIS DRESS. The Che bella maxi.

Or this one, the Da Vinci. Pretty much anything from the Roamin Holiday line is bellissimo.

But enough about what I would purchase. Today, I want to give thanks to you.

One lucky winner of this giveaway will receive a $50 giftcard to Shabby Apple to use on anything their little heart desires. But choose carefully; there are quite a few stunning pieces in this collection.

Mandatory entry:

    “Like” Shabby Apple on Facebook and leave a comment telling me which Shabby Apple item is your favorite

Leave a comment for each entry and one random winner will be drawn next Thursday (winner will be announced Friday 5/18). My Pixie Blog readers are eligible for a 10% off coupon for anything from Shabby Apple for one month–just enter coupon code mypixieblog10off at checkout. I have already decided that I will also be purchasing myself a little somethin’ somethin’, now that warm weather beckons and a closet full of sweaters needs to make way for a cute new spring dress (or two).

    Congratulations on 200 posts, Charlotte! Milestones are awesome. Makes us feel a sense of accomplishment.

    While I could always use a little black dress, I think I’ll pass on the contest. lol

    Because I can’t follow directions…..the item I love the most (hard to choose just one) is Palatine Hill. Shabby Apple ads have been on my site for awhile (through Google AdSense). I have loved the ad images on my site, but not had the time to investigate. Thanks for sending me over there. Love their clothing and accessory line!!

    I’m a facebook fan!

    I’m just glad I’m not the only one who is obsessed with Shabby Apple. šŸ˜‰ My current favorite dress is the lovely Pina Colada shirt dress!

    Oh, I probably failed to say that I like them on Facebook. I do! I also like MyPixieBlog on facebook (April Gilbertson).

    Congrats to you! What a fun way to celebrate!!!

    I liked Shabby Apple on FB. I LOVE The Red Queen from the Mad Hatter Collection! I can totally see myself in that on a date night with my husband! He would love it!

    Joined! Commented! Oh my goodness, I’m so glad you are promoting them today! I ADORE their clothing! But I’m extremely partial to the aprons! Wildberry Pie ROCKS!
