Some period drama-loving friends and I are throwing a big online party to celebrate Masterpiece airing season one of The Paradise. There will be a premiere night Twitter chat, weekly recaps, and to kick things off . . . a fun contest involving one of our favorite pastimes - SHOPPING! This seemed appropriate as The Paradise is a Victorian-era department store where plucky heroine Denise Lovett is employed in the Ladieswear Dept.
Read on to find out how you can enter this exciting contest and be eligible to win several FABULOUS prizes!

Hi Tracie! Snazzy leopard print bag you got there. Looking forward to tweeting with you during Sunday night's Season One premiere of The Paradise! I'm headed to the other bloggers now to see their shopping finds. Check out my photos in the lingerie department ... I keep company with some very TALL mannequins... :)
ReplyDeleteJulie, I was seriously tempted to buy that leopard print bag, but I'd already purchased a JLo snakeskin tote a few months ago. So, I couldn't justify buying a similar bag so soon afterwards. I do love my animal print purses! :)
DeleteYour selfies in the Lingerie Department at Nordstrom's were hilarious! :)
I'm actually having some serious shopping lust for that leopard bag -- I want it!
ReplyDeleteHappy Paradise Party weekend!
Girl, the bag is at Kohl's and it's on sale for $62.30. As Tom Haverford would say, "Treat yo'self!" :)

Love the leopard bag!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Martha! That bag's a beaut, it isn't? ;)
DeleteLeopards and JLo, frisky shopping! I like a women willing to brave the jungle for a new bag! Happy Reading & Reviewing!
ReplyDeleteWell, you know me, Elizabeth, I've got to stay on top of the latest trends and animal prints are HOT right now! ;)
DeleteSee you at the #ParadiseParty chat on Sunday!
I love anything and everything leopard print!! Love the pic!! Can't wait to get started!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sara. It's sad how many pix I had to have taken to come up with this one semi-decent, grainy shot. I blame the fluorescent lighting at Kohl's. ;)
DeleteGlad you're excited about our #ParadiseParty! I'm sure it'll be a blast!
This sounds like fun. I'll have to get to work on those pictures. I agree with the above comments. I love anything leopard too.
ReplyDeleteI saw a woman with that same leopard print bag today. She also had a matching leopard shirt and leopard flip flops. Definitely too much of the same pattern. For a second I thought I was on safari ;)
ReplyDeleteI always heard the rule, when doing any animal print, is only one item.
DeleteLove the idea.. Shopping link with the Paradise show...
ReplyDeleteI feel more people need to read this information very good! sensational news. I look forward to more;. Interesting read, thanks for helping keep me busy at work)
