Birthday Week Shabby Apple Giveaway!


 What better way to celebrate the week I turn 30 then by hosting a giveaway from one of my favorite dress companies inspired by one of my favorite movies! I first saw Roman Holiday a few years ago, and it instantly became one of my all time favorite movies. I was an art student at the time, and seeing Audrey Hepburn running around the streets of Rome was like a glimpse into my dream vacation. Seeing the beautiful art and architecture, sipping Italian wine, eating delicious Italian meals all day long, basking in the Mediterranean sunshine! I still haven't made it to Italy yet, but looking through these dresses has reignited the romance of a Roman Holiday.



I'm sure you've all heard that Shabby Apple Women's Dresses launched a new collection a few weeks ago called Roamin' Holiday. There are 21 new vintage inspired dresses in the line, and they are ALL gorgeous. One of you lucky readers will win a dress from the new line! You will get your choice between either the Da Vinci dress or the Spanish Steps dress. I don't envy the winner of this giveaway because I don't think I would be able to choose between the two!

    Happy almost birthday, it's my birthday week too!

    I "liked" Shabby Apple on Facebook.

    I would EAT on an Italian vacation. I also would go visit the village that my family is from and while in the area, stop by Pompeii and then head to the Blue Grotto.

    On an Italian vacation, I'd have to bring my husband and we would probably spend all our time in Rome looking at all the ruins and just soaking up the history.

    I don't have a facebook but I can do everything else! Does that count? I love Shabby Apple so, so, so much. And were I in Italy right now I believe I would spend the entire trip at outdoor cafes eating great food and sipping tiny cups of espresso, the likes of which just can't be found on this continent. I'm off to tweet now.

    I just "liked" Shabby Apple on Facebook...

    An Italian vacation has ALWAYS been a dream of mine. I love {LOVE!} Italian art and European history and I'd spend the entire trip running from historical sites to museums to see all the things that I've studied and loved my whole life! It seems like such a beautiful, romantic place. It would be a dream come true!

    I'd also plan to eat. A. Lot.
