a little midweek giveaway

I like my sponsors. And I like you. And to celebrate both, here's a little giveaway to brighten your day.


Ashley of The Poppy Chain Boutique creates some gorgeous jewelry. She's super sweet and is also a sponsor for this month -- and she's giving away a twenty five dollar gift certificate to her shop. Looking for a little something special to spice up your fall wardrobe? Ashley 's shop features pieces that are the perfect mix of vintage and modern, fun and girly.

Halloween Orange Baby Rose Earrings

Also, just for the lovely readers of pastor's girl's ponderings, you can get twenty percent off your order with the code PGP20 -- don't miss this opportunity!







And not only is Ashley giving away something, Romi, another lovely sponsor, has made this lovely locket especially for you. I'm in love with the edginess it adds to an outfit -- perfect for the nautical trend I'm rather head over heels for.

Want to enter to be one of two lucky winners? Here's how it works.

  67. I am such a planner once October comes around- from planning my little brother's birthday party, to my Halloween costume (I always go full out). Now that I think about it, what's NOT to love about October? The weather gets chilly here in Utah, and it gives me an excuse to layer up or sit by the fire wrapped in a blanket and some warm Mexican hot chocolate.

    Now that I think about it, I really cannot wait until October comes around.
