Ottawa giveaway alert: this time we’re going undercover
Posted by andrea tomkins in: Fishbowl patrons|Giveaways and product reviews
What a week! We’ve had giveaways for movie tickets and candy… and now we have something a leeeettle unconventional, but just as fun. Lingerie. (!)
I have to confess, I never thought I’d see the day when I’d be hosting a giveaway for underthings. But Emilia Kutrovska, Fishbowl patron and owner of Lilac Lingerie, has a self-described addiction and enthusiasm for underthings that I have never witnessed before. She is eager to spread The Gospel That Is Good Underwear, and you know what, so am I, because Looking Great Underneath Our Clothes is a cause I’m willing to fight for. So let’s just say AMEN to that and move on with the deets.
This giveaway is for a set from “Change”, which Emilia describes as one of their more casual brands. It’s not over-the-top flashy but at the same time very pretty and comfortable to wear. Here it is:
Can I get a woot woot?
The underwear comes in a hipster style too, if that’s more up your … alley. ;) Sizing runs from A to G. I’m adding in some clarification about the sizing. Here it is:“… the particular model that is in the picture ranges from a 30B to a 38D. That is the moulded cup. The same style is then offered in a full cup (non-padded) in sizes 30D to 38F. The details are very similar, however the full cup gives added support to the larger cup sizes.”
The bra straps can be worn haltertop or cris-cross style (which is awesome, and comes in very handy with certain styles of tops). If you happen to be interested in kicking it up a notch you should know that there is a matching garter belt and stockings available too, but they are not included in this giveaway. They would, however, complete the outfit. :)
Enter! And think of it this way:
1) Ladies: this could be a great Christmas gift for yourself. And you deserve to look fabulous underneath those party pants.
2) Gentlemen: this could be a great Christmas gift for the lady in your life because we all deserve to look and feel great.
Also, dudes, did you know that you can buy instantly-printable gift certificates right on their website? OH YES YOU CAN.
The value of the set is $74 and includes the Change bra and panties (and as I mentioned, garter and stockings are available for purchase).
So who’s going to throw their name into the ring? Please don’t be shy.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Lilac Lingerie has a Facebook page! “Liking” it is not a requirement here, but I urge you to do so because it’s a great way of finding out what’s happening at the store. Did you know they can host private parties too?
- You need to live in the Ottawa area, because the winner (or the spouse of the winner) will have to go to the Lilac Lingerie for a professional fitting. They’re located in Westboro at 307B Richmond Road.
- For your entry to qualify you must leave your name in the comments below. That’s it. Rants, complaints, and stories of bra-related woes are welcome, but entirely optional. :)
- If you can’t post your comment because you’re behind a firewall at work or whatever, you can email it to me for posting: andrea at quietfish dot com.
- One entry per person please! We want lots of people to have the opportunity to win.
I will do a random draw of all qualifying entries using Random.org at noon EST on December 16, 2010. Please make sure you leave a valid email address, because you can’t win if I can’t reach you.
Sound good? Thank you to Lilac Lingerie for hosting this giveaway!
Over to you, and may the gods of good underwear be with you, always. :)
