yay!!!!

This is the post about the previously mentioned exciting thing!  Hooray!  Modcloth runs a contest on Twitter every Monday, "Funday Monday," and today I won!  I'm still really excited about it.  And here's what those lovely, lovely Modclothians are sending my way.

String of Pearls Scarf

Isn't it pretty?  It's definitely something I would have chosen, too-- it actually reminds me a lot of the Recall The Willow cardigan that I mentioned in my last post.  I love soft fawn-brown for spring, it's such a pretty neutral.

Just in case you're curious, the question that Modcloth posed today was, "What are your three essential suitcase items?  The most useful or inventive wins!"  My answers were: 1. black ballet flats, for strolling, 2. an extra bag, for inevitable shopping trips and 3. a sundress that can be dressed up for night.

♥ I'll post pictures after this lovely scarf arrives-- Thank you, Modcloth! ♥

And speaking of contests, Julianne and Jude are so, so close to winning a honeymoon in the 'Best Engagement Video' contest, and there are only five days left to vote.  If you could vote for them here, it would be fantastic! You need to log in with facebook to vote (after clicking 'Vote for This Entry'), but it won't cause any spam or anything.  It just moves two absolutely lovely people closer to having a honeymoon after their wedding this May!
