The whole team of InTheirCloset wishes you and your family a joyful and laughter-filled christmas. We’re taking a few days off to spend the holidays with our families and loved ones to play in the snow and eat cinnamon cookies en masse, so please excuse if posting here will be slower than usual. We promise to be back full force in 2011.

Phew, time flies! I can’t believe another year went by so quickly. Believe it or not, but November 22, 2010 marked InTheirCloset’s 2nd birthday! 730 days full of fashion fun… and shoes. You are welcome to celebrate this happy day with us by joining our anniversary extravaganza:

Right now, one billion people on the planet don’t have access to safe, clean drinking water. That’s one in eight of us. On mycharity: water, you can run, bike, give up birthday presents or just raise money to fund water projects for communities in need. 100% of the money you raise will go directly to people in need and in 12-18 months, you’ll see proof of the projects built using photos and GPS. Get involved, too!
The goal of our mycharity: water project is it to raise $1,000 until the end of this year. This will ensure 50 people having access to clean drinking water for the next 25 years! We are celebrating the gift of life by giving up our birthday to help establish what is a basic human need and should be a right for everyone, not just 7 out of 8. Join forces with us! Make a donation and increase your winning chances!

Listen up, folks! You know how much I love my wonderful & talented writers Vahni, Celine & Vanessa. In fact, I think they’re totally the best and I’m so happy to have all of them on board. So, of course, I have to help them as much as they help InTheirCloset grow to be the greatest fashion blog under the sun (which basically it is, let us be honest, no? 
)
This time it’s Vahni who needs our help. She managed to be a featured entrant in BeautifulStranger.tv’s blogger contest “Are You the Next Beautiful Stranger?” with her personal blog Grit & Glamour which is an awesome accomplishment on its own, but now that she’s come so far, let’s make Vahni’s effort worth the time and sweat she always puts into her sweet little blog, shall we?
Do me a favor and head over to Vahni’s feature on the blog, then rate (I’m not implying you should give her 5 stars, but well, you totally should) & while you’re at it, please take your time to leave a comment, would you? Show Vahni your appreciation because if it wouldn’t be for her, you’d miss a lot of awesomeness here on InTheirCloset.
Now I know I have the best readers of the whole wide world who are totally selfless and like to help us just because they’re nice, but let me give you an incentive here. If we should manage to get 25 ratings + 25 comments on Vahni’s “Beautiful Stranger” feature, I’ll be giving away a $25 Amazon gift certificate randomly to one of the wonderful people who decide to comment over there.
If you want to participate, leave a comment here on this blog and tell me which comment you left on the BeautifulStranger blog post. Easy! The contest ends very soon (June 15th, 2010 – comment must be written before this date to be eligible), so click yourself through, rate, comment and you might be a happy gift certificate owner veeeery soon.
Thank you for your support, dolls!
P.S.: Good luck, Vahni! You totally deserve to win!

Our jewelry giveaway, sponsored by Fantasy Jewelry Box, has ended a few days ago and we finally have a winner: Congratulations, Kelly (comment #5), you won! Kelly wrote about her most favorite jewelry:
My favorite piece of jewelry is the antique blue sapphire and diamonds set in sculpted silver ring which I got for my high school graduation from my parents. I love the antique 1920s setting and the blue oval sapphire sits perfectly center with diamonds sculpted into the sterling silver setting. I cherish every time I wear it.
Announcing a giveaway winner is both rewarding and saddening because we’d love to be able to let ALL of our wonderful readers win something. Anyway, this sure wasn’t the last giveaway here on InTheirCloset, so keep reading this blog & you’ll soon have a new chance to win a new fabulous prize.
Thanks to everyone who entered. We honestly loved reading your comments about your most cherished jewelry items!

UPDATE: This giveaway is closed now! Thanks for entering. Congrats to Kelly for winning!
Our last giveaway was way back in January, so we figured it was about time to treat our readers once again and hold yet another giveaway for you here on InTheirCloset. Because we all know cheap is good, but free is so much better, isn’t it?
This giveaway is kindly sponsored by Fantasy Jewelry Box (Thank you!) and the winner will be allowed to pick out a $35 or under item from the site which will be then sent to her or him. If you’ve fallen in love with one of the many pieces pictured above, you’re lucky because all of these are under $25 which means if you win, you could pick your favorite item AND still have at least $10 bucks to spend on something else. Awesome, right?
In order to enter this giveaway all you have to do is to leave a comment and tell us what your favorite piece from your jewelry box is. That’s it. Couldn’t be easier, huh?
The giveaway is open internationally, so readers from all over the globe, feel free to enter. You can join the giveaway until next Wednesday, 05/05/2010 (11:59 PM EST time). The winner will be drawn shortly thereafter.
Please remember to leave your (first) name and a valid email address when writing the comment (just fill out the comment form correctly and you’ll be fine). A comment equals 1 entry. You can leave multiple comments here if you want to, but only your first one will be accounted.
If you want to increase your chances of winning, you can score more entries by doing one or all of the following things:
IMPORTANT: If you are already subscribed to our newsletter or already follow us on Twitter, please say so in the comment. Don’t forget to mention or email us the email address with which you’ve signed up to it if it is different from the one you leave in the comment form.

This is an example of how your comment could look like:
My favorite jewelry item is an antique diamond ring which I inherited from my grandmother. I subscribed to your newsletter, follow you on Twitter and tweeted about the giveaway.
This example would sum up to 5 entries (1 favorite jewelry comment = 1 entry, subscription to newsletter = 2 entries, twitter follower = 1 entry, tweet = 1 entry). That fictional reader would have increased her/his chances of winning by 400%.
If you have questions regarding this giveaway, don’t hesitate to ask. Good luck to everyone!
