a paper crowns giveaway: lex & lynne jewelry. (CLOSED)

Lex & Lynne is a small, NYC-based jewelry company that specializes in simple, handmade bead necklaces and bracelets inspired by (and made with materials from) different places around the world. Lex & Lynne describes itself as:

"A celebration of culture, travel, art and self-expression
offering unique jewelry that complements a nomad-chic lifestyle
and the idea that life is growth."

A while back, Alexis, the founder of Lex & Lynne, sent me some of her pieces and they're absolutely beautiful. They're simple without being plain, and varied and interesting while still being cohesive and all of a piece. It's genuinely some of the prettiest jewelry I've ever owned.

You can see me wearing some of Alexis' lovely jewelry while enjoying what is hopefully not one of the last warm days we're going to have before spring:

I'm wearing two of the matte-onyx Nicole bracelets, one of the matte-onyx Becca bracelets, and the Kara necklace. The Kara necklace is absolutely stunning. It mixes black matte-onyx with Czech glass beads and has a sea-blue chalcedony pendant in the middle. 

Lex & Lynne has generously offered to give away a beautiful matte-onyx and Czech glass bracelet that co-ordinates with the Kara necklace. The winner will receive a Courtney bracelet and a $25 gift card, to spend on a matching piece or, really, anything you'd like in the shop! 

That's a $95 total value, to one lucky winner, selected by random draw!

To enter, just leave a comment on this post. Simple as that! And check out the Lex & Lynne shop while you're at it :)

You must have a U.S. mailing address to enter the giveaway. If you don't live in the U.S., but have a friend or family member here who can recieve your package for you, still feel free to enter!

Lex & Lynne is also offering Paper Crowns readers a 30% off discount code, from now through December 17th! To receive 30% off your entire oder, just enter the code MID5SEASN5 at checkout.

This giveaway will be open until Sunday, December 9th at 8pm. Winner to be announced shortly thereafter. Good luck!

And the winner is:

Congratulations, Elizabeth! Thanks so much to all who entered :)

 

a paper crowns giveaway: DITTO eyewear! (CLOSED)

I am so excited to be hosting my first giveaway ever today. And it is huge. HUGE.

DITTO is a beautifully designed website that sells an amazing collection of designer glasses and sunglasses. They are very generously offering one lucky Paper Crowns reader a $200 gift card to spend on their site. Two hundred dollars! And you have some awesome brands to choose from, including Ray-Ban, Chloé, Persol, Alain Mikli, and Jason Wu. DITTO includes free prescription lenses (and free shipping and free returns!) with any purchase of frames. Could this giveaway be any more awesome!?

Some of my favorite frames from DITTO:

1. Anglo American "Airlite 406" - $249.
2. 3.1 Phillip Lim "Parker" - $250.
3. 7 For All Mankind "728" - $148.

As you can tell from my choices, I'm loving the 3.1 Phillip Lim line right now!

I could not be more thrilled about teaming up with DITTO to make this pretty much the best first giveaway ever. And I'm so excited that one of my awesome readers will walk away with a brand-new pair of gorgeous glasses!

I'm using Rafflecopter to run this giveaway, which makes entry really simple, and you can earn up to twenty entries!

Something to note: At this time, DITTO only ships domestically, so the winner must have a U.S. mailing address (International readers, still feel free to enter if you have a friend or family in the U.S who can recieve your package for you!)
