The holiday season might be wrapping up for most of us this week, but that doesn't mean that the festive spirit has to end entirely, too. I know how busy, and at times even stressful, the past few weeks have been for many of us and as such, I really wanted to offer all of you a fantastic giveaway to usher in 2015 with.
For this inaugural blog giveaway of 2016, I'm absolutely delighted to have teamed up for the first time ever with popular online American vintage reproduction, alternative, steampunk, and goth fashion purveyors, Violet Vixen.
Their frequently updated shop is chock-a-block full of the kind of fun, fashionable, timelessly lovely offerings (sourced from an array of different brands) that so many of us go weak in the knees for.
With everything from novelty prints to timeless florals, dresses to tops, corsets to handbags, and offerings for both men and women, Violet Vixen is a delightful site with a wide away of products that are sure to appeal to just about any vintage, pinup, rockabilly, retro, steampunk/Victorian Industrial, or alternative fashion fan.
{Just a small sampling of Violet Vixen's fabulous (current) products, any one of which might be an ideal choice to put your $100.00 gift certificate towards, if you happen to be the winner of this exciting giveaway. From top left to bottom right: Hawaiian Sidecar Dresss | Dragon Lace Pink Cupcake Corset | Betsy Pink Sparrow Gumball Purse | Cherry Blossom Plus Size Dress}
In addition to very generously offering one lucky Chronically Vintage reader the chance to a $100.00 gift certificate (voucher), the lovely folks at Violet Vixen also kindly sent me a cuter-than-cute Flamingo Fun Skirt to review, which I will be sharing here with all of you in an upcoming outfit post in early 2016.
(As mentioned here last week, we've continued to experience snowfalls here everyday as of late, which makes shootings quite dangerous for our photographic equipment, otherwise I'd be posting snaps of myself in this charmingly lovely skirt here today; again, watch of them a wee bit further on in the year.)
Giveaway Details:
This giveaway, which is open to readers worldwide, is for one $100.00 USD gift certificate/store voucher from Violet Vixen, which will be put towards merchandise on their website.
Violet Vixen has informed me that they will also provide shipping cost coverage up $35.00 for those outside of the USA.
Just to clarify that point, if you are the winner and you live outside of the USA, your gift certificate can be put towards up to $100.00 in merchandise and then if three are shipping costs beyond that $100.00 value, Violet Vixen will cover such shipping costs up to a total of $35.00 (this is due to the fact that their shipping prices run on the steeper side for those outside of the US).
The giveaway is taking place between today's date (Wednesday January 6th) and 11:59 PST on Wednesday January 13, 2016, with the winner being drawn and contacted via email (as well as possibly announced on social media) shortly thereafter.
If you've like to enter, please feel free to do with as many of the following Rafflecopter options as you desire.
The only one that is mandatory for entry is that you leave a comment on this post, the rest are entirely optional. The more that you enter, the greater your odds of winning.
Should you happen to have any questions about this giveaway, drop me an email and I'll be happy to answer them as best I can for you.

A huge thank you to Violet Vixen for this wonderful giveaway opportunity, and the very best of luck to all those who enter!!!
What a wonderful giveaway! I recently had the opportunity to drool over the Violet Vixen merchandise but I have to say that the international shipping costs were a bit prohibitive for me... so this givaway is just perfect! That's so great of them to be willing to help with the shipping costs of an nternational winner!
ReplyDeleteWonderful, I love a spontaneous giveaway and this shop looks fab. Looking forward to seeing the skirt :) x
ReplyDeletemy favorite item from violet vixen is the iced cherry mimosa dress. SO pretty!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway! I would not have really looked at this company because they look much more into steam punk and burlesque, but the items you found were so cute. My favorite is the cherry blossom dress.
ReplyDeleteOhhh! Would love to win it!
ReplyDeleteOh wow! This is so awesome and a cool shop! I LOVE the flamingo skirt and can't wait to see it on you and your review! :)

Hello from a Pin-Up want-to-be. There are so many things on the VV site that I wish I could try. I love the q size garter & stocking combos and those Cuban stockings look like the prefect starting set for me. If I had a chance I really would like to pick out a simple corset or waist trainer to did with my biggest self-esteem problem I deal with everyday.
ReplyDeleteThank You for the chance to win this gift certificate and being a part of this huge give-a-way.
