Valentine's Day Giveaway



To celebrate the love that I have for all my wonderful readers, I am giving away 1 pin to 3 readers. If you are selected as a winner, you may choose from one of the pins shown in the picture. I constructed each pin by hand onto a safety pin with lace and whatever else I could get my hands on from my mom's massive supply of embellishments.

The giveaway will end Sunday, February 7, 2010 and is open to all US and international residents. To enter, just leave a comment with your name, email, and which pin you like best. If the selected winner is following my blog, I will throw in a surprise along with your pin, so please subscribe! =)

I hope you are as excited for this as I am!

Okay, now on with the post:





F21 top/cardigan, Martin+Osa jeans, Jessica Simpson pumps











This Saturday I had lunch at ChoSun Galbee. I love their outdoor breezy dining area, grilling beef while listening to birds chip. I consume Korean BBQ almost weekly, and as if I didn't shove enough calories down my throat, I had some dessert at Amy's Pastry after. Life would just be meaningless without great food- and shopping. Agreed?

  1. SUI. northyrn at gmail dot com. I LIKE THE MIDDLE PIN BEST! YAYYY giveaway!

    Is that a red velvet cupcake?

    MM, LOOKS SO GOOD. *___* Kalbiii... ahhh.. delicious, but expensive.

    And of course you're beautiful. :)

    Ahaha, we should hang out when I'm in LA sometime. :P I spend most of the year in SoCal and visit LA once in a while. Seems like a lot of bloggers (fashion-related, esp.) are in LA <_<

  2. The pins are all adorable! But I'd have to admit, the first pin had myattention first. Here's my email: reeeesah@gmail.com

    I had Korean food all this weekend and what can I say? Never fails to satisfy my hunger! Haha. And cupcakes! There's a cupcake store where I live, and they have such cute ones and they're really delicious. I wish I could have cupcakes for breakfast today.

    But yes, life would be meaningless without a lot of things, including great food and shopping. For sure. ♥

  8. Mmhmm definitely agree! It's not always good for us, but life is nothing without doing the sings we love.

    Korean BBQ's expensive here in Sydney, so I only get to eat it about once every 2 months or something XD I'd definitely eat it every other day if I had the cash though
