Giveaway- from Michelle Chang and Dallas Shaw

You have probably noticed some changes in the blog. More posts. More followers. And more giveaways!
I have been seeking the best of the best items to thank readers with. I am so grateful for your support of my crazy career in fashion.
Today's giveaway is from Michelle Chang jewlery. I was first brought to her etsy shop when seeking small thin necklaces to go with a few "busy" tops I own. What I like about her store is that all of her items have a cute simplicity to them and somehow they are not overly girly.

 For my blog readers today, Michelle Chang would like to offer you a chance to win these tiny branch studs.
Just visit her shop, and let us know what you like about it! You always get an extra entry by sending a tweet about the blog this week. Enjoy- and thank for the support.

    I really like the way Michelle Chang puts a youthful twist on her designs, keeping her customers looking playful and fresh! The finish on her pieces are a little different than the typical silver or gold polished look, making them perfect to stand alone or combine with some of your other favorite jewelry! All her rings are absolutely fabulous but I love love love the wishbone necklace!

    Her shop is full of such unique pieces and such a variety-- skulls, peace signs, hearts and all the cute animals. I'm loving the baby skull bangles!

    thanks for the opportunity, what a great giveaway!

    I would have a hard time picking out only one thing so I'm glad you did it for me! I love the fact that most of the metal looks "brushed" so it is more muted. I think this look is great for everyday.

    I've been eyeing her designs for a while now; I love that her design is cute but at the same time sophisticated. My personal favourites are the baby skull earrings and the baby skull ring...and I usually don't even like skulls on...anything. Adorable!
