*new giveaway!* win a weekend getaway + spa treatment at The Mansion on Peachtree!

February 4, 2012 in Feature, Feature - Top, giveaways with 12 Comments

the gig

Where can you go to get away from it all…right in the midst of it all? No, this isn’t a riddle. It’s simply an apropos description of The Mansion on Peachtree, Atlanta’s most sumptuous boutique hotel. This gorgeous (truly) 42-story hotel in the heart of Buckhead feels unpredictably tucked away and serene, although it’s a mere skip from Phipps, Lenox and some of Atlanta’s finest dining venues. Think: marble floors, deco chandeliers, velvet club chairs, an unmatched onsite spa, a swank jazz-imbibed lounge, and a thoughtful, attentive staff. Heaven in Atlanta.

So…who wants to win a weekend stay for two AND a spa treatment at The Mansion on Peachtree? 

the giveaway

To enter:

1. Like The Mansion on Peachtree on Facebook.

2. Post a fan comment on their page, telling them Little Black Dress/Little Red Wagon sent you.

3. Come back HERE and tell us you did it in the comments below. (Don’t forget this step, so we know you entered!)

Winner will be drawn March 10, 2012.

Stay and spa treatment must be booked and redeemed by December 23, 2012, in accordance with the hotel’s schedule and availability.

*giveaway* flour child cakery custom cake

January 24, 2012 in Feature, Feature - Bottom, giveaways with 18 Comments

the goods:

Win a custom decorated cake from Flour Child Cakery, to use at any special event during 2012!!

What percentage of people in the world would you say are REALLY talented at making ornate, scrumptious, truly awe-inspiring cakes? Not like “I went to Michaels and got a cake pan in the shape of a ladybug and baked a cake in it and then decorated it with copious amounts of store bought icing to make it look somewhat like a ladybug…if you squint” type of cakes.

We’re talking true works of art made from melt-in-your-mouth secret recipes with decadent icing that seems to come straight from heaven. One-percent, maybe two? Yeah, that would be our guess. For the other 98.5% of us, there are places like Flour Child Cakery, which are owned by and staffed with the aforementioned tiny percentage of cake geniuses. You should see – and taste – these perfectly sculpted, impeccably decorated, morsels of goodness. Actually, one of you will be able to do both…for free!

Flour Child Cakery is giving one lucky LBD|LRW reader the opportunity to win one of these custom decorated masterpieces!

the giveaway:

1. Go to Flour Child Cakery’s Facebook page – facebook.com/FlourChildCakery

2. Like their page.

3. Leave a comment telling them that Little Black Dress|Little Red Wagon sent you!

4. IMPORTANT: We’ll draw a winner from comments below, so come back here and let us know you did it!

We’ll draw a winner around February 20, and that winner will receive a $75 credit toward any custom cake of their choosing at Flour Child Cakery. Piece of cake!

November 30, 2011 in Feature, giveaways with 165 Comments

we have a winner!

What an awesome giveaway! Thank you, Abbadabba’s, for sponsoring such an enviable, coveted prize. Wish you could have all won, but alas, we had to pick just one lucky duck. Random.org shone its selective face on comment #133 Amber Harris for this giveaway. Congrats, Amber! Go get a real pair of UGGS to replace those Fuggs!

Comment 133 Amber Harris:

would LOVE a pair of REAL uggs! my fake ones (what I call my Fuggs) are great but these would be better!

the gig:

It’s getting to be that time of year again. The time where Jack Frost starts nipping at your nose. Which is a real bummer, but, unfortunately, there’s nothing we can do to help you out with that one. What we CAN help with is when he starts nipping at your toes. What if you had a new (free) pair of UGG boots to keep your tootsies warm and cozy when Mr. Frost comes a nippin’? Well, LBD|LRW and Abbadabba’s can make that happen with a giveaway for a pair of Ugg boots! Actually, the giveaway is even better than that; it’s for a $200 credit toward ANY in-stock Ugg of your choice! Christmas (and warm tootsies) are comin’ early to one lucky lady!

1. Go to Abbadabba’s Facebook page – facebook.com/coolshoesatlanta.

*closed* 3 free personal training sessions with kaizen fitness

October 31, 2011 in Feature, giveaways with 11 Comments

the winner:

We have a winner! Random.org picked #2, Keleigh Kapparos, as the lucky recipient of three personal training sessions with Scarlet Knight of Kaizen Fitness. Keleigh, you are in for a TREAT. Scarlet is fabulous– as personally motivating as she is physically challenging. You will love her!

the goods:

Kaizen: Continuous and incremental improvements leading to positive and steady change. “Thanks for the Japanese lesson, LBD,” you say, but stick with us. What if this is how you tackled the seemingly insurmountable obstacles of losing weight and gaining a healthy lifestyle? And you had help doing it?

Kaizen_logoScarlet Knight of Kaizen Fitness helps her clients do just that everyday. As a mom of three and grandmother of two, Scarlet knows the challenges that stand in every real-world woman’s way when it comes to fitness and healthy eating. She’s not going to raid your pantry, screaming at you about all of the trans fats and high fructose corn syrup it contains. She’s not going to berate you when you come to a session and mumble a confession of not exercising since your last workout. She seeks to encourage and build up. To be your coach and cheerleader all at the same time.

And, now, she seeks to give to one lucky LBD|LRW reader three FREE personal training sessions in her private Kennesaw studio. This doesn’t only include lifting weights, but also education on sound nutrition, proper exercise techniques and (small, doable) steps to developing a fitness lifestyle. Scarlet is certified through the American Council on Exercise and International Sports Science Association. And if you’re preggers, or you’ve recently given birth, you can enter with confidence (and a note from your doctor). Scarlet is certified in prenatal and postpartum fitness, too!

the giveaway:

Makin' it fun!
