For my first-ever giveaway, I am offering several items I found, tried, and loved, and wanted to give others a chance to discover also...I'll end the giveaway on my birthday, so this will be the Birthday Bash Giveaway!! I'm really excited to be able to offer this to those following my blog!
The first item is the Topless Undershirt from a company called Blush...these stretchy bands of fabric totally cover the stomach area if you are wearing a (teeny?) top that doesn't reach the top of your (low-rise?) pants/jeans. This is great for women who are pregnant, women who are long waisted, or women who simply have lots of tops that are cut regular yet still show a patch of tummy skin (and you're modest, don't want to show that to everyone in the world!).
It's offered in various patterns and colors...the one in this giveaway is white with gray squiggles (as shown above) for women sized 0-6 (it stretches a lot though, so would probably fit up to a size ten comfortably or a woman who is expecting, for most of her pregnancy, as a more fitted style that is popular today in tees). The Topless Undershirt is a great option for women who like the look of layered clothes, but don't want the bulk of wearing two shirts. It fits from the top of the tummy down and is very comfortable! It hides a lot too (stretch marks? can't close the button of your jeans after a big meal? have lots of low rise jeans but don't like the look anymore? or you just like a splash of color under your tees?). It's also available on their web-site if you can't wait!
The second item is the Mama Mio Boob Tube, a cream for any women (ages 18-80) that wants to make/keep her boobs perky! This cream helps increase the elasticity of the delicate decollatage skin. There are no parabens, colorants, SLS, synthetic fragrances, xenoestrogena, etc...basically, the yucky stuff has been taken out! If you have had children, or just feel like gravity is your enemy, this is a great product for firming and lifting (and safe women pregnant and nursing women). Can't wait to win it? It's available on their web-site.
Boob Tube smells great, feels good, and is made with shea butter, sweet almond oil, rosehip seed oil, CoQ10, avocado oil, and more. Love this product! Mama Mio sells a range of other great products as well on their web-site, if you want to check them out.
Finally, the third item for the great Birthday Bash Giveaway is The Lingerie Handbook, a great book written by the bra specialist and owner of the famous La Petite Coquette (french for "The Little Flirt"), Rebecca Apsan, about every type of lingerie you can imagine. This fully illustrated book thoroughly describes and advises on every undergarment, from bras and shapewear and nighties and teddies, and finally, to exotic lingerie that is often specially measured and fitted, or found only in more upscale boutiques.
This book, published by Workman Publishing in New York, helps you transform from the inside out...if you dress right underneath, all your clothes look better, and you feel better. The Lingerie Handbook even helps you organize your lingerie, build up a basic (and then some) lingerie wardrobe, and teaches you how to take care of these delicate garmets so they last, always look great, and most importantly, do their job of decorating and supporting you, so you always look great.
This is a great coffee table book if you don't have children (there are lots of photos!) and it has terrific information to help your thoroughly stock up on the best, more flattering, useful, and sensuous lingerie, and guide you through the sometimes (initially) confusing world of garters, silk stocking, and alluring negligees. It tells you what is best for different bodies, how to highlight your best qualities, what to wear with certain clothes so you look terrific fully dressed, and more!
Rules For Entry:
1. Become a follower (on the right sidebar) and leave a post below. This is required to enter. If you are already a follower, you get two entries (reward for loyalty!)...just make sure to leave TWO posts. Each post is an entry.
2. Leave a comment below telling me which of the three items you'd like to win. You can enter for all three (just leave three separate comments, one indicating each item you'd like to win). Please include an e-mail I can reach you at for your address if you are a winner.
3. For two extra entries, post a blog about this give-away, and include a link to your blog post (post two comments for each entry).
I will draw on August 8th at 12 noon EST, so please have your entries in no later than August 8th at 8 a.m. Entries after this will not be counted. I'll e-mail the winners and post when I have confirmed winners. The winners must respond within 24 hours before I draw again.
This give-away is open to continental U.S. residents only. If all goes well, I am planning more give-aways, to celebrate my upcoming one year bloggaversary, another for moms and expectant moms, to celebrate my coming to the end of my first pregnancy, and more! Stay tuned....
