Have you ever dreamed that for just one day you could wear a designer dress and turn the heads of everyone as you walk into the room? Want Mama’s A Rolling Stone to make that a reality? This month, we have partnered with Rent The Runway to give one lucky reader a free designer rental.
Rent The Runway is the Netflix of designer clothing. For a very low price, you can search through their array of designer dresses, pick out your favorite, have it delivered straight to your door, then take it out on the town and impress everyone. When you’re done, just drop it in to your nearest mailbox.
Here’s the best part: Rent The Runway have just launched several pieces from Halston Heritage, including dresses featured in the upcoming Sex & The City 2 movie. If you have ever wondered how you would look in a Carrie Bradshaw-inspired outfit, now’s your chance. That white dress Carrie wears in the preview? You can rent it!
So how do you enter? First, become a member of Rent The Runway with this private invite. Then, leave a comment below answering these two questions:
- Which dress is your favorite?
- What would you do if you won a designer dress rental and could live out a Carrie Bradshaw moment in real life?
Do I need to be in the USA to enter? Yes, unfortunately at this time Rent The Runway can only provide dresses/clothing to US residents. Sorry!
Anything else? Yes, make sure you leave your email address when you comment.
Competition ends? In 10 days. To be precise, the last day for entries is March 11 and the winner will be announced shortly after.
 Back in December, we were lucky enough to receive two sample cuffs from Axl & B, the Santa Monica-based accessories brand. The gorgeous cuffs are handmade by Claire Cole using reclaimed materials that Cole finds at thrift stores and rummage sales and every cuff has a limited edition run.
We receive two cuffs to check out: a thick, mottled brown leather cuff with an engraved insignia and a smaller, black leather cuff with stud detail and a gold padlock.
Although we would love to keep them for ourselves, we think a little giveaway is in order. To participate in the giveaway, you need to get your social networking cap on.
The details: First, become a fan of us on Facebook (or maybe you already are). Then, get as many of your friends to become a fan of our Facebook page as you can. The lovely person who gets us the most fans on Facebook will win the cuffs which I will personally ship out to you. You can either leave a comment below telling us who you recruited as fan, or tell us on Facebook.
The competition ends in 10 days: to be precise, that’s Thursday, February 4.
