#Blogmas GIVEAWAY & Fascino Boutique: The Grand Opening

For those of you who have been following me for awhile, you know that I am obsessed with the Pittsburgh based, online boutique Fascino, seriously this little shop has the cutest clothing and accessories for great prices! And I have news for my Pittsburgh readers, they're not only online but now have a storefront located on Mount Washington, just a block down from the Monongahela incline. (And coincidentally across the street from my old apartment building, was my love for this store meant to be? I think so!) Recently I attended their grand opening party and as I expected, their boutique was chic and flawless (and of course there was champagne!). Before I get to the giveaway details, here are some highlights from opening night:

Now, about that GIVEAWAY:  

So in honor of the giving season and Fascino's grand opening I figured what better way to celebrate than with a giveaway? Though I have partnered with Fascino for the grand prize, I also have partnered up with Bijoux USA again as well!

What can you win? 

Here's the deal: I will be giving away 7 different Bijoux USA jewelry items (pictured below) to 7 of my contestants and one lucky contestant will win all 7 jewelry pieces along with a $100 gift card to Fascino!  So that is 8 prizes all together. (For my international readers, unfortunately you're not eligible for the grand prize because Fascino does not ship internationally yet, however don't fret because you can still win some super cute jewelry which I will be shipping internationally!!)

GRAND PRIZE: $100 Fascino Gift Card + All Seven Bijoux USA Jewelry Pieces

 

Rules:

The entry rules are exactly the same as my last Bijoux USA giveaway and are as follows: 

  1. The first step of entry is commenting on my post with what item you would like to try and win along with your email so I can reach you if you win to discuss shipping matters and such. However, if you are uncomfortable posting your email here, you can email me directly at starkravingchic@gmail.com with the same requests.
  2. Please only ONE email/comment per item entry, this means you are allowed to try and win multiple items in the giveaway, but please only one email per item/contestant. (EX: if you want to try for more than one prize, you would list them in one comment.) Unfortunately if you do not follow this request, you will be disqualified.

How will the winners be chosen?

The drawings will be at random, basically I'll just be pulling names/email addresses out of a hat for each given category, this means there will be 8 separate drawings for each item listed to win, to guarantee the authenticity of the contest.  And of course as I stated above, once my winners are picked I will notify you via email to get your address for shipping purposes.

Dates The Contest Will Be Running: 

So the contest starts today with this post (AKA Thursday, December 10, 2015)! And you will have a little over two weeks to enter (meaning the end date will be Friday, December 25, 2015) and the winners will be announced that following Saturday, December 26, 2015 bright and early at 9AM US Eastern Time.

Just so you have it straight:

  • Start Date: Thursday, December 10, 2015
  • End Date: Friday, December 25, 2015
  • Announcement of Winners Date: Saturday, December 26, 2015

Before I sign off just another reminder, and as stated earlier, all of these items will be shipped internationally except for the grand prize of the $100 Fascino gift card and 7 jewelry items which will unfortunately only be offered for my U.S. readers due to the fact Fascino does not ship internationally yet! So again to my international readers, I'm very sorry about that, but as stated above you can still enter for any (and for as many as you want!) of the 7 jewelry pieces which I will be shipping globally!

To all my readers, thank you so much for reading and participating. You are all seriously the best and I am so happy to be hosting this giveaway this holiday season, you all deserve it and I truly appreciate each and every one of you!

Best holiday wishes everyone, and good luck!! :)

Xx, Bree
