Here at BSB, we're all feeling a little bit festive, a little bit early this year...
Well, Ok, that's a little bit of a lie. Amy's feeling a little bit festive a little bit early this year - she's even listening to Christmas songs on YouTube as she types this!
Anyway - to celebrate our first Christmas at BSB, we're having a faaabulous competition, inspired by the wonderful Dream Sequins and her blog's virtual birthday party...
So...
Yep - that's right! We're having a very special Christmas Party this year, and it's happening right here, right now!
We've hired a very large, imaginary room in a very stylish somewhere in London, with pink and silver tinsel, and star-shaped fairy lights everywhere... and we'd love for you to be there to celebrate it with us!
"So tell us about this competition, then, Amy..."
All our members are invited to the party (yes, you are allowed to sign up just so you can par-taay with us), and as a community of fashion bloggers, we thought it was only right to hear about what you're wearing to the party... as well as some other stuff.
In fact, that's how you enter - we'd like you to write a post on your blog, with a photo of you in your Christmas Party clothes (there's no theme, m'afraid - whatever you feel festive and party-ish in is good with us!), telling the world about the party, and about what you'd wear.
It's a bring-a-plate party, too, so we want to know what you're bringing for us all to eat or drink - be inspired, and bring something festive and cool! Show it to us, or give us a recipe, and we'll love you even more.
We'd also like you to tell us which song you'd like on the playlist - festive and fun, or the one you always dance to, or the one that means the most.
Anything goes...
"Recap that, then, a second... I have to write a blog post with what?"
-
A photo of you in your party clothes
-
An explanation of what you're wearing and why
-
What food (or drink!) you're bringing to our non-existant party
-
And what song you'd like on the playlist
"Then what?"
Then post the link to your blog, as well as your email address, as a comment on this post! You have until December 10th to do it!
"Um... Ok. But... what do I win?!"
We have three prizes, kindly donated by our lovely new sponsors;
First Prize is - A pair of Coco Roses and a strawberry bag, kindly donated by Coco Rose London, Claire Napier's Fridge Style game, and a Look of Love necklace, kindly donated by I Love Cutie Pie
Second Prize - A £20 voucher for Coco Rose, and a Coco Rose strawberry bag, kindly donated by Coco Rose London
Third Prize - A £15 voucher for Coco Rose, and a Coco Rose strawberry bag, kindly donated by Coco Rose London
"How're you judging this thing, then?"
The judging panel hasn't quite been decided, yet - it'll definitly be all of the BSB contributors, and hopefully reps from Coco Rose and I Love Cutie Pie, too, as well as maybe some other people... Ho humm, who knows?
The judges will whittle entries down to five, and then those will go to a public vote - so you need to get your supporters out in force to help you win!
"Anything else?"
Of course!
Firstly, it would be amazing if entrants could please follow @ilovecutiepie and @cocoroselondon, on twitter?
And secondly, terms and conditions - this competition is only open to members of British Style Bloggers (although you can join just to enter). You must be a UK resident to enter, and you must provide all elements of an entry in order to be elligible. You must display a BSB badge or Blog of the Month badge on your blog to be elligible. Contributors, sadly, can't enter.
We'll let you know anything else as we think of it!
Good luck, and see you at the party (we'll be posting our party blogs here, even though we can't enter the competition, to keep you in the spirit of things!)...
And, merry Christmas, happy hannuka, and a thoroughly joyous holiday season to all!
LoveLoveLove
- Amy and the BSB team -
