It’s Christmas Eve! I’m such a child at Christmas so i’m feeling rather hyperactive today – but that’s besides the point, i’m here to talk about the dress! I never quite know what to wear on Christmas day, I don’t go out or see anybody other than my close family, but I still feel the need to dress up, i’m sure you know the feeling!? Well, Violetville Vintage sorted out that problem when they sent me this early Christmas present, isn’t it a beauty? I just love the colours. I paired it with my boots (perfect for the snow!) and a neck tie to jazz it up!
Well, Violetville are giving you the opportunity to win a Christmas present of your own – a $50 gift certificate to spend on anything in their fantastic eBay store! They specialise in Mid-Century fashion, and have hundred and hundreds of items to choose from, including accessories, so you’ll be spoilt for choice. If I was the winner i’d be seriously tempted by these Ferragamos and this black and white party dress! Although this hand-painted box bag is charming…
All you have to do to win the $50 gift certificate is…

Hey, I also have such a bear pin! The one time I went to England I saw such a pin. Unfortunately none of such with my name (Annelien) on it. But I did buy one, a purple one (with another name, but I don’t remember which). So funny so see somebody who also has one
Ah, chidhood memories!

This is a lovely dress, it suits youso well!
I didnt have any trouble finding what to wear on christmas day, I bought a really awesome cheesy christmas jumper, with christmas trees, stockings and presents knitted all over it!
