So, a few weeks ago, I totally lucked out and won a contest. The prize was a $25 gift card to Prima Donna (a shop I hadn’t previously heard of) and one of their necklaces! Score!
Let me tell you – choosing what to buy with my gift card was hard. Prima Donna has tonnnnnnns of cute stuff and it’s so affordable. Gah! I wish I had learned about them sooner, but I digress. Eventually I narrowed it down to two items and decided what the hell, I’ll get them both!
So allow me to ramble on for just a moment about how much I love my new goodies and then I’ll introduce our very first giveaway!
Kazam Studded Envelope Clutch – Black
Ho.ly. Shit. I love this bag. It’s gorgeous! It’s made of beautiful faux-leather, and the studs simultaneously dress it up and make it edgy. That’s really all I’m looking for in a clutch bag! It also comes with a nice, thin gold chain strap. I think I’ll buy a thin black leather strap to make it a bit more casual for daytime, but I can’t get enough of this bag right now! It also comes in Natural and Seafoam. Annnnnd it’s only $32.99!
Trickle Triangle Midi Ring – Gold
There isn’t a ton to say about this, I just really love it. It’s one size (and I’m not sure what size that is) but it fits both my index or ring fingers. The triangle is the perfect size for me and I love the etched surface. The ring is plated metal and comes in gold or silver. Oh, and did I mention it’s only $7.99? Can’t beat that.
Now let’s get to the fun part…
Thrifting & Bitching’s very first giveaway!
