The Vintage Fashion Journal Review & Giveaway


Please Note: This Giveaway is Now Closed.

The Vintage Fashion Journal, illustrated by Niki Pilkington, is gorgeously illustrated, well designed, and top quality.  It has a hardcover, fabric cover, ribbon closure, 128 pages, and a high cuteness factor.  Love it!  It would certainly make a delightful gift. 

The illustrations of 40's - 80's fashions and homewares are on the front and back cover and interspersed throughout the pages.   Also interspersed throughout the pages are quotes from famous style icons.  There are a mix of white and pastel coloured pages that are light lined, blank, or have light geometric prints.  

2 lucky Favourite Vintage Finds readers will each win a copy of The Vintage Fashion Journal.  The publisher of this journal, Laurence King Publishing, is sponsoring this giveaway.  To enter this giveaway, read on...





This giveaway is open to readers worldwide and ends on October 5, 2012 at 4.30 pm AEST.  The winners will be drawn using a random number generator, and notified on October 5, 2012 by 9 pm AEST.

To enter, simply do these 2 things:

1. Leave me a comment.  One entry per person.

2. Leave a link in your comment to your blog, profile, or website where I can contact you if you're a winner.  Or leave your email address.

 Until next time.  Best wishes all.  :)

Disclosure:  I received a complimentary copy of 'The Vintage Fashion Journal' from Laurence King Publishing.  No payment was received for this review or to host this giveaway.

    Thanks so much for this wonderful giveaway Carla!

    Where do I even begin describing this amazing journal??
    The cutesy little drawings, the quotes, the insanely marvelous "FASHION-NESS" of this journal! There's just so much to love and I am practically drooling all over my computer right now. Fashion, clothing, and everything in relation to the two are just somehow to spectacularly fascinating and original. I would absolutely love to receive one of these amazing journals to be intrigued by everyday! :)

    Best of luck to all the marvelous people entering this giveaway!
    I'm most definitely keeping my fingers crossed as tightly as possible!!
