The ODIVO + Sophie Blake Giveaway

December 18, 2015 Julien Garman

Oh happy day! It’s time for a giveaway!!

I’m partnering up with two of my favorite small businesses, Sophie Blake NY and The ODIVO to give away a silk scarf with - wait for it - DONUTS ON IT! (ALICIA ARE YOU READING THIS?) It's normally $135 and you can pick between the orange or the black one! Silk scarves have been such a hot commodity this season and my go-to for jazzing up an outfit (as my coworker would say.) You’ve seen how much I love The ODIVO (I wore this dress from their shop earlier this week and I’m obsessed with this tee I wore a couple months ago on here!)

I’m also giving away these insanely beautiful rose gold bar earrings from my babe Sophie Blake! And even though I don’t like to play favorites, Sophie Blake is, hands down, my favorite jewelry company, ever. She makes her pieces by hand and she’s so in-tune with making jewelry that stands out, but is also super wearable. I wore this style constantly while I was in New York and am so excited for someone to win them!

Entering is supes easy - just fill out the items below in the Rafflecopter! I’ll be choosing a winner on Christmas Eve! Good luck!!

Ksenia Schnaider // When You Know

When you know, you know.

That’s how I felt when I was picking out my wedding dress years ago. I’d had this idea in my head of what I wanted, what I KNEW would look killer on me. It would be long and a-line…but have a few intricate details to make it stand out - lace or a bit of tulle…but not cheesy. Romantic, whimsical…so when I tried on the A-line gown with a tulle, sweetheart neckline with a flowing skirt that had pretty tulle flowers, I knew it was the one.

I felt that way when I first spotted this dress on The Odivo website. The shape, the length, the colors…I knew it would be the prettiest dress ever. And I was right.

I love who I become in this dress. All of a sudden, I’m smiling at strangers and twirling down the sidewalk. I’m sitting at the edge of a water fountain at CityCenter, drawing hearts in the water. I’m a whirlwind of color (which is not usually the case for me!) When color is done right, I can’t help but want to wear it to death! The full skirt and high waist add just the right touch of girliness while the high neckline and vibrant color palette add the perfect amount of modern elegance.

So I’d like to make a toast - to Ksenia Schnaider, you brilliant woman, you! This dress has given me hope in color once again and I owe you everything for making me feel the way I do in this dress. And to The Odivo, you smart cookies. The brands you carry and the way you promote them give me all the happy feels. I can feel your passion through the interwebs. And lastly, my dear friend, Jen, who always captures moments so perfectly.
