First Giveaway...yay!

1.31.2012

As promised, I have finally finalized the items for my First Giveaway for reaching 100 followers! I'm super excited to host this (and a little nervous as well!) and share some of my guilty pleasures with you all since that's my theme for the giveaway!

My guilty pleasures are very simple--If I need to spoil myself, it's going to be baking something yummy, reading something frivolous, cozying up with a good cup of "coffee" (have I told y'all I call hot cocoa coffee!?), buying a new accessory, or trying a new beauty product! And I've gathered up some of my all-time favorite guilty pleasures to share with you all!

So, without further ado...

All the loot...not including the canister of sugar or spice rack in the background...those are mine!
Cake Mix, Cupcake wrappers, Cupcake Book, & a journal (just because it's so darn cute!)
Ulta lip gloss, OPI nail polish, &  Bath & Body Works travel size lotion & body wash!
Antropologie mug (don't worry, this one is mine, the winner can tell me the initial they'd like!) Best mug ever! I checked their store this weekend and they have TONS of these mugs left in every letter (except for U...we'll cross that bridge if we come to it!)
Limited Earrings...my favorite place for jewelry!
My 2 favorite magazines, Glamour & Self, and a notepad, just for the heck of it!
Anyways, just a few simple steps to follow to enter this giveaway...

1. Follow my blog through Google Friend Connect (1 entry)
2. Blog about this Giveaway (3 entries)
3. Leave a comment telling me 1 thing you'd like me to blog about (2 entries)

Please Leave 1 Comment for ALL of the possible entries! 

This Giveaway ends on Friday, and I'll announce the winner on Saturday! 

Have a great night, y'all!

    That's such an amazing giveaway, I definitely love everything cupcake-related! And those magazines look really interesting, I'm not a native speaker and usually read those in my own language, so... flicking through the American ones would be a new experience :)

    I gladly followed your blog. As for your question, as I'm a keen traveller... reading about your favourite trip would be great! Or, you could post a bunch of interesting facts about yourself, I always love reading them :)
