It's A Celebration Today!!!!

A year ago I sat down and made my first blog post. I spent so much time reading other people's blogs (including some that I'm happy to have read my own) and contemplating for way too long about starting my own, that I finally just did it (and after I got a decent camera). I want to thank all of my readers and especially my followers with a small token of appreciation.

Everyone gets a cupcake!!!!!

Okay, so that wouldn't really work although everyone should experience the greatness of Georgetown Cupcakes. Instead, I'm hosting my very first blog giveaway. Two (yes, not one, but two) lucky people will win these lovely gifts:

First place: A gorgeous blue cross-body bag from Francesca's Collection, Sally Hansen nail strips in leopard, and a yellow crystal friendship bracelet from J. Crew.




Second place: Chanel polish in Mimosa and a coral rhinestone bracelet from Forever 21.



To enter the giveaway you must be a follower of Notes from the Dressing Room. Make sure you mention how you follow in the comments section with a way for me to contact you if you win.

For an extra entry, follow me on twitter and tweet about this contest. Don't forget to leave a separate comment stating that you tweeted!

Contest will end on Thursday, June 2nd at 11:00 p.m. (eastern time). Open to U.S. residents only. The items of this contest were purchased from me and are not gifts from sponsors.


On a separate note, I want to send a huge thanks to two people. The first is  Amy K. of Kelinda. Kelinda for doing such an awesome job on my cute new header. I absolutely love how it turned out and it's the icing on today's cupcake!!

The other person I want to give a million thanks to is my bf. He has been extremely supportive in every way. If he wasn't so patient and cooperative about being my photographer, I don't think this blog would be possible.
