SMC giveaway: shannon nicole headbands!

posted in accessories, giveaway |

how fun are these headbands by designer shannon nicole?  part gossip girl, part kenley from project runway, feathered accents like these are oh-so-hot this season.  i love that you can choose how brightly you want to feather your nest.  the pheasant style (center) is pretty mellow, all things considered, and blends beautifully into lighter hair.  the ostrich (left) is a great option to show off a bigger flash of the trend, while still keeping your look tailored.  and the robin (right), well, that’s for a night on the town – no question about it.  throw this on with your favorite metallic minidress, and you’ll be the toast of the party!  you can see all of her fab designs over at shop a list (along with loads of other lovely things).

what’s more, the absolutely fabulous designer of these gorgeous accesories has generously offered up TWO of her designs for you darling readers!  fantastic, no?  so, to find one of these lovelies in your mailbox, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post.  i’ll draw two winners a week from today (nov 3)! 

and as always, bonus entries!  if you leave a second comment telling me where you shared the news about this giveaway, you’ll get a bonus entry.  and, just for fun, i’m going to give a bonus entry if you tell me your favorite gossip girl moment, outfit, or catch phrase – just be sure to leave it in a second comment, as we can’t test my math skills too seriously.

  2. 2 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar Apple said:

    My favorite GG line is from Blair to Nate, ‘Hold that non-thought.’ Bitchy-bitchy. :D

  3. 3 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar Alyssa said:

    I LOVE this look- so Carrie a la wedding gone bad.

  4. 4 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar Serena said:

    These are amazing!!! I totally need one for winter!

  5. 5 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar Serena said:

    LOL, while this isn’t that appropriate for this post, but I loved it when Serena said “I hate that stupid headband!” during the episode where they were at Yale.

    I love Blair’s headbands, but sometimes they just aren’t as pretty/cute as the ones in this post!

  6. 6 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar jessie said:

    There are too many fun Gossip Girl lines but I love when Blair calls Chuck, Mother Chucker.

  7. 7 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar Megan said:

    Sadly I do not watch that show, but I think I might now. Love these bands…these can add so much to some dull winter days!

  8. 8 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar Nicole said:

    I love the flapper-vibe this fall, and the feathers here are great. I’d definitely wear one of these to the classroom!

  9. 9 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar Jodi said:

    Those headbands are gorgeous! I’m pregnant and looking for any fun accessory that will distract from my belly

  10. 10 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar Valerie said:

    I seriously dislike Kenley, but Ms. Waldorf I love.

  11. 11 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar elizabethk said:

    Ooooh they are gorgeous!!!! It’s a little luxury for glossy hair.

  12. 12 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar elizabethk said:

    For my bonus entry:
    my fav line….

    Chuck: “Why do I deserve to be an usher at Darthmouth? Because I’m Chuck Bass.

  13. 13 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar Megan said:

    Beckie…told some friends at work…I love spreading the good word of fashion.

  14. 14 On October 27th, 2008, Wavatar Jessie said:

    How great was Blair tonight saying Chuck left like a “Bass out of hell”!

  31. 31 On October 28th, 2008, Wavatar Robin said:

    I think this would look good on my head!

  32. 32 On October 28th, 2008, Wavatar Pilar said:

    Ain’t nothing like a good feather to make me feel flighty and free.

  33. 33 On October 28th, 2008, Wavatar Brittany said:

    The feather headbands are gorgeous! I suppose my favorite gg moment had to be last evening when Blair & Chuck knew they loved each other but were are afraid how admitting it would change their relantionship. Ironically, that was the most vunerable they have ever been with one another.

  34. 34 On October 28th, 2008, Wavatar mandy said:

    OMG…i never would have thought to buy a cute headband like this…you are absolutely right about Kenley. I hate her attitude but loved her style! Now to not let my dog knaw on it like a chew toy…priceless! hahaha

  35. 35 On October 28th, 2008, Wavatar mandy said:

    well i’m going to be honest with you, I really don’t watch gossip girl enough to quote any lines. Also, I have really been into the new 90210. sorry, but I will share this information on my blog…Color Me Happy. It is also a blogspot blog. so happy blogging and happy give a ways and meeting new people in the land of blog…smiles!

  36. 36 On October 28th, 2008, Wavatar Anna Pope said:

    Count me in for one of these beauties!

  37. 37 On October 28th, 2008, Wavatar Megan said:

    Oh my gosh, these are soooo gorgeous. Even if I don’t win, I might have to buy one anyway!

  38. 38 On October 28th, 2008, Wavatar Megan said:

    Plus I totally adore gossip girl and definately got my boyfriend addicted (he might even like it more than me, which is quite a lot). As for my favourite line, it’s probably at the beginning of this season when Blair says to Chuck:

    “Give me one reason why I should stay. And “because I’m Chuck Bass” doesn’t count.”

  39. 39 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar Annie Spandex said:

    Those are hot! I hope I win, but good luck to all!

  40. 40 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar Melody said:

    I hope i can win! These are so beautiful & stunning! Brillant!

  41. 41 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar Melody said:

    My favorite gossip girl moment is:

    Chuck: “My, that girl has gotten under your skin.” Blair: “The question is, Bass – will you?”

    Now, that was naughty naughty right? ;)

  42. 42 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar Hui Shan said:

    AH! I only just discovered your website! And i love the hairbands so much! They’re gorgeous & such a fashion accessory that all girls would die to have!

  43. 43 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar Hui Shan said:

    Definitely during the Serena-Blair cat fight where Blair screamed “ow, my headband!” HOW FUNNY that she can imagine her hairband feeling pain!

  44. 44 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar Crystal said:

    Pick me please! *crosses fingers!* You have a great website by the way. I love the lanvins blue ballet flats in one of your latest posts.. Pretty! You’ve got great taste!

  45. 45 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar Crystal said:

    EASY! My favorite gossip girl moment was when Dan said to Chuck, “You should put a bell on.” Chuck’s response: “Kinky. I’ll think about it.” Nice one!

  46. 46 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar de said:

    Thanks for the opp to win! I love GG – addicted. So many good quotes, but here’s one I remember from this week.

    Dan: So he just got up and left, abruptly?
    Blair: Like a Bass out of hell.

  47. 47 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar de said:

    Here’s my entry request. The other post is my GG quote!

    I shared news of this contest with all my friends who follow my shared blog reader/folder.

  50. 50 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar Jasmine C said:

    My favorite gossip girl outfit was Serena’s off the shoulder blouse and skinny jeans outfit she wore in the last episode.

  51. 51 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar Tiffany Johnson said:

    I was just telling my friend Ash that posted about your giveaway how “Gossip Girl” the headbands are!!! LOL… Us girls are silly! I’ll take one in every color ;)

  52. 52 On October 29th, 2008, Wavatar Roxy said:

    Just beautiful, I would love this to wear to the opera!

  59. 59 On October 31st, 2008, Wavatar Dani' said:

    I used to have a great vintage feathered headband. It was glossy black and blue and had feathers that tapered down on one side. I haven’t seen it in years, unfortunately I think it was in one of the boxes we stored while moving. That whole lot got ruined due to a leak. wah!

  60. 60 On October 31st, 2008, Wavatar Mel said:

    This would be perfect for my upcoming dance performances! Definitely a fashionable piece that would be an instant hit!

  61. 61 On October 31st, 2008, Wavatar Mel said:

    HAHA! Gossip girl is sooo the in thing right now! Here’s my favorite quote! I laughed & rolled in laughter hearing this one!!

    Chuck Bass: Serena looked effin’ hot last night. There’s something wrong with that level of perfection. It needs to be violated.

    Now ain’t that naughty of chuck! ;)

    i love these!!!

  64. 64 On October 31st, 2008, Wavatar Michelle said:

    I love Gossip Girl! It’s hard to think of a favorite moment. Most of the ones with Blair’s scheming come to mind.

  65. 65 On October 31st, 2008, Wavatar Kim said:

    These are fab!

  66. 66 On October 31st, 2008, Wavatar Kim said:

    I love almost all the outfits on Gossip Girl, but my favorite this season was probably Blair’s dress at the White Party.

  67. 67 On October 31st, 2008, Wavatar Jill said:

    Love the headbands! :) Must win one!

  76. 76 On October 31st, 2008, Wavatar Susan said:

    I am loving GG right now. Chuck Bass is perfect. My favorite part of every episode is the “spotted…” voice over from gossip girl herself…which might just turn out to be Chuck. Doesn’t that sound about right? Side note, I adore the feathers. Please pick me!

  77. 77 On October 31st, 2008, Wavatar Kristie said:

    Gorgeous!!

  85. 85 On November 1st, 2008, Wavatar erin said:

  101. 101 On November 2nd, 2008, Wavatar Roxy said:

    Gossip Girl fashion moment – I loved the dove grey ostrich bag Blair was carrying when she visited Yale. If only I was that fashionable in high school…who am I kidding, if only I was that fashionable now!

  102. 102 On November 2nd, 2008, Wavatar Tasha said:

    Ohhh! Have an old vintage comb made of peacock feathers that is startig to show it’s age. these will be the perfect replacement (and won’t fall out like the comb always does!) yippee.
