Giveaways

I am sure many of you are enjoying a wonderful three day weekend! While you are planning any weekend trips or thinking about an delish BBQ coming up this weekend, we have something else for you to get excited about. We are partnering with Ignes Handbags to bring you a wonderful giveaway! I won’t spill all the details now, but make sure to come back on Monday and offer your two cents about what kind of bags you’d like to see custom designed for the giveaway!

Exciting right? Well, while we love bringing you some amazing giveaways, we also love introducing you to some great brands out there. Several of you are very familiar with Ignes over on the tPF (the Purse Forum). Yet, for those of you who aren’t as familiar, I wanted to tell you a bit about the brand. Ignes was founded by the sister-brother team Maria and Ignacio. Ignes has been put on the map due to the fabulous leathers, customizable options and overall individuality. Maria and Ignacio want to provide gorgeous handbags while remaining socially responsible. In fact, Ignes won the Most Socially Responsible Handbag Award at the Handbag Designer Awards. Amazing, right?

One last thing I can’t help but mention… the winner of this giveaway will win a Travel Set (travel bag, shoulder bag and travel wallet). Stay tuned!!

Well ladies and gentlemen, today is the last day of our amazing giveaway. While we love giveaways, we also love giveaways where we get to partner with some of our favorite web-based friends. I speak for the entire Purse Blog team when I say how wonderful it is to work with other phenomenal sites and amazing designers.

If you weren’t familiar with Luxaholics before, you should be now. And trust me, this is a great site to keep in your daily rotation. Beyond, that, I hope you’ve had a great time checking out some of the hottest exotic handbags on the market, thanks to Adriana Castro!

So, today being the last day, you better believe you won’t be disappointed. By entering today, you won’t just be in the running to capture one amazing exotic handbag, if you win, you will win TWO bags! That is right… TWO!

Yes, we’ve saved the best for last. If you win, you will be adding the Python Melissa Hobo, the Python Wallet and a matching card holder to your handbag collection. These bags are breathtaking and together retail at $2405. If I could, you better believe I would keep them for myself. So, make sure you enter to win!!!

No, we haven’t forgotten! We’ve been working on announcing the winner of our oh-so exclusive collaboration with Belen Echandia. We’ve collaborated with this amazing designer to bring you a gorgeous one-of-a-kind handbag. After you weighed in and voted, the bag was made, the giveaway was held and the winner was selected. Join me in congratulating Laura, from Colorado, who has won this amazing bag!

The week is beginning to wind down. Let’s be honest, who doesn’t look forward to the weekend? I will be the first to say, I always look forward to the weekend! When I think of the weekend, I can’t help but think about which fabulous clutch I will carry out. For day four of our amazing giveaway with Luxaholics, there is a fabulous exotic clutch up for grabs. This Adriana Castro Crocodile Modish Clutch is a head turner. Retailing at $1530, what better way make this yours than by winning it!

Last night in NYC the 2009 Independent Handbag Designer Awards took place. It was meant to be for Adriana Castro, as her Modish Clutch won Audience Fan Favorite in a category that had over 15,000 votes. Did you realize that today is the day we are giving away the Modish Clutch? It was not planned, but it could not be more fitting. We are so happy for Adriana Castro and her win last night! Make sure to enter to win the Adriana Castro Modish Clutch today. It is beyond amazing and I am envious of whoever will be the lucky winner!

Happy Hump Day. It is the middle of the week and the middle of our week of amazing giveaways. We love working with our friends over at Luxaholics and promise to keep bringing you other amazing giveaways like this! With your help, today, Adriana Castro has designed an amazing clutch that could be yours. The Adriana Castro Lizard Daisy Clutch is sleek, elegant and boasts just a bit of color to spice up your handbag collection. And if you think you like this one… just wait until you see what we have for you tomorrow and Friday!

Curious to see what other exotic Adriana Castro handbags are up for grabs this week? Well, today, you have the chance to win a gorgeous Python Zip Wallet and matching card holder. This gorgeous bag can easily be used during the day as you run around or at night when you put on one of your killer outfits and dangerously breathtaking heels. Can’t you just see yourself pairing this with jeans and a white snug fitting shirt or your favorite LBD (little black dress)? Oh the options! Head over to Luxaholics so you can enter to win this great bag and card holder which retail at over $500.

This week is going to be absolutely amazing. If you are anything like me, you might have just finished a weekend where you couldn’t wait for Monday to begin. While this doesn’t happen much, I could hardly wait for today and the kick-off of our new giveaway. We’ve partnered with our fashionably fabulous friends over at Luxaholics to co-host a five-day long exotic handbag giveaway!

As you may know, exotic handbag designer, Adriana Castro has not only supplied handbags for this giveaway, but she’s actually custom designed and constructed the bags that are up for grabs!

Wondering how everything will work? Each day from 9AM EST through 8:59 AM EST the following day (24 hours) you will have the chance to enter that day’s giveaway. You will need to provide the secret code which will be found in that day’s Purse Blog post when entering over at Luxaholics. Only one entry per person/per day. Of course you can enter each day during the Week of Exotic Handbag Giveaways! A winner will be randomly selected and notified within 24 hours following that day’s giveaway.

So, what’s up today? An absolutely gorgeous Adriana Castro Crocodile Cosmetic Case. One of the best things about this bag, is that depending on what your needs are, you can use it as a cosmetic case or a clutch! Personally, I’d tote this beautiful bag as much as possible, so for me, it would be a clutch. Retailing at over $400, this exclusive bag is something that would add class and sophistication to anyone’s collection!

Starting Monday we will be teaming up with our friends at Luxaholics along with one of our favorite designers Adriana Castro to bring you all a week of exotic handbag giveaways!

The giveaway kicks off Monday at 9 AM EST/6 AM PST. Each day, one winner will be selected, so get to clicking early! Each bag will only be up for grabs for 24 hours. Check back daily to see if your name is announced as a winner!

Also, tune into Extra! today to see the plug for our giveaway! We are sending Mario Lopez a big hug, maybe he will give us a wink back

Yep, you know me, I can’t keep a secret. And even beyond that, you might remember when we polled you all about exclusive handbags Adriana Castro would be designing for a huge giveaway! We are partnering with our friends at Luxholics again to co-host an unbelievable Adriana Castro giveaway!!!
