First off, Happy New Year!  We’re back in the swing of things and doing our first giveaway of the year.

Congrats to Martha S., blog commenter-extraordinaire who won last month’s giveaway of a round washi necklace. Martha chose this lovely modern necklace.

This month, we’re giving away something of your favourite colour!

To enter, comment below with your answer to:

· What is your favourite colour and why? and

· Get a bonus entry if you show us the outfit that you’d like to wear your with your new jewelry piece if you win. (You can do this by linking to your Flickr account or other photo hosting site, your blog, a photo in your Facebook photo album, or you can even create an outfit with Polyvore and link to it).

· One entry per person — if you are linking to an outfit photo, please include the link in your comment.

We’ll randomly choose from all the entries, and pick one winner on Monday, February 1st at noon (EST).  The winner will pick one jewelry piece from a selection of three jewelry pieces of our choosing.  (The three jewelry pieces will be in the winner’s favourite colour and/or complement their outfit).

In the past, we’ve done a Facebook-based giveaway where we would giveaway a product to one of our Facebook fans. We’re changing it up a bit since Facebook revised its rules for running promotions on fan pages.  No longer are we allowed to give something away for your fanship.  In fact, the rules clearly state that if we do run a promotion or giveaway through or fan page, we’ll need to do so through a 3rd-party aplication box or tab and that all contests must be approved by a Facebook account rep at least 7 days prior to the start date of such a promotion.

In order to comply with these rules, we’ve decided to announce the giveaways on our Facebook page, and just have you comment on our Giveaway blog post (which is this!)

So, to be eligible to win this month’s prize of the round washi necklace of your choice, just let us know by commenting on this post with a descriptive phrase that you think describes our jewelry.  (For example, one we use sometimes is ‘simple, yet modern’).

You can comment as many times as you’d like until December 31st at noon EST. Each comment counts as one entry, providing that your comments have a different descriptive phrase each time.

Good luck!  We’ll make the draw on New Year’s Eve, December 31st. :)
