Ottawa Giveaway alert – refreshing your basics with Lilac Lingerie
Posted by andrea tomkins in: Fishbowl patrons|Giveaways and product reviews|Ottawa
We have a winner! Thank you all for your entries… many of which were totally hilarious. :)
HELLO T-SHIRT WEATHER. Bonjour lighter-than-air sundresses. I am so glad to see you. I have MISSED YOU SO MUCH.
This giveaway is brought to you by the lovely folks at Lilac Lingerie. They want you look and feel great, inside and out. And so do I for that matter. :)
A quickie administrative note: I would like to point out that fellow Fishies decided the outcome of this particular giveaway! Thank you to those who took the time to vote on the Fishbowl Facebook Page. Woot!
As we welcome the warmer weather and do the ol’ wardrobe switcheroo (goodbye sweaters! farewell boots!) we must ask ourselves, do we have the right stuff to go underneath our summer wear? And (if you’re like me) are your undergarments from last summer, and, um, the year before still in good shape?*
* Let’s put it this way, if you were hit by a FedEx truck while crossing the street** and it sent your sundress flying over your head, and the incredibly hot firefighter who arrived on the scene saw your skivvies, would you be embarrassed by your shredded grannie panties and pilly bra … or not? :)
** Don’t worry, you’re not injured, just shaken.
Ok. Enough of the what-ifs. Let’s cut to the chase. Did you realize that “the basics” can look this incredibly hot?
Behold:
Gorj.
Me: I like a smooth look under summery tees and I want my underthings to be practically invisible. But you know… invisible doesn’t mean plain. And it certainly doesn’t need to be boring.
I think we proved that!
This bra and panty combo by Pleasure State Basics is available in sizes ranging from 30B to 38G and I’m told it fits most body types really well. The matching bottoms come in a thong or fuller cut (pick one). A note to the future winner: Lilac Lingerie is a boutique, and although they do their absolute best to have a broad inventory, depending on your fit there is a slim chance you *may* have to wait for your size to be ordered, which may mean a slight delay for you, but hey, we’re not quite into summer yet and I’m confident it will still work out!
Bonus bonus bonus:
Anyone who enters this giveaway gets a one-time 10% discount on merchandise at Lilac Lingerie until May 31, 2011. So make sure you leave your proper name and email address because this is what will qualify you for the discount in the eyes of the staff at Lilac.
