Drum roll please……the Modern Kiddo reader who left the winning comment (as chosen by Random.org) was:

Beth has always been a big supporter of Modern Kiddo, and you guys might have seen her sweet little Etsy shop Fuzzy Mama on our side bar before as a sponsor—but I want to assure you guys this was a totally random pick! I consider it a happy accident. HAPPY FRIDAY Beth!

Thank you so much to everyone who entered….and thank you to our dear friends at Polarn O. Pyret for sponsoring this amazing giveaway. We hope to do another one in the future!

CONGRATULATIONS Liz!!!!! You are officially the proud owner of this rockin’ bag that I have been eyeing for the past week and a half as it sits in its luxurious Kate Spade box in the corner of my office!!! (I can’t lie, I’m totally jealous….)  I think you MUST take a picture of yourself with the bag when it arrives so we can all see! Whoo hoo!

I think someone is having a VERY happy Monday.

Thank you so much to everyone who entered. This was the biggest, baddest most rockin-est giveaway we have ever done and we’re SOO thrilled you all loved it as much as we did! Winner selected via Random.org. And yeah. We just might do it again some day.

Giveaway #2: COLORED SKINNIES // Giveaway CLOSED.


I know, I know. Aren’t we already giving away an insane Kate Spade Handbag? (Yes we ARE. And you have til this evening to enter!) But it just wouldn’t be a Month of Color on Modern Kiddo if we didn’t do something for those little peeps in your life. And since the month is ending verrry soon, we wanted to go out with a bang. We are SO excited to be giving away a $50 Gift Certificate to the always awesome and colorful Polarn O. Pyret!

As you probably know by now, Swedish brand Polarn O. Pyret is one of our very favorites. Their clothing is classic, with fresh looks, bold colors and of course those signature stripes. It’s children’s clothing meant for everyday use, duds that will stand up for many playdates and walks thru rainy puddles. BUT in addition to being awesomely practical…..they are also really stylish! PoP was waaaaay ahead of the colored jean trend and their version is super comfy! You can use your $50 Gift Certificate for anything you want, but we highly recommend THE COLORED SKINNIES!

 

Colorful, fun, and ready for action! The sizes range from 2 years to 11 years and come in a bunch of awesome colors. Something to note: skinny jeans for kids aren’t like skinny jeans for adults. They are cut slimmer overall, but don’t worry, they aren’t mega tight.  Polarn O. Pyret’s skinnies are 97% cotton with 3% lycra for addedstretch, so your kidlets will still be able to run, jump and play a mean game of kickball on the playground! In addition to being crazy stylish, colored jeans make it easy to spot your wandering kiddo in a crowd. They have become a bit of a signature piece for Wolfie—he thinks the bright colors just look happier than regular jeans and who am I to disagree??

The Big Kate Spade Giveaway. CONTEST CLOSED!

This is it! The big ol’ giveaway we’ve been yackin’ about. When Dottie & I started Modern Kiddo, we did it as a way to celebrate our love of colorful vintage, cool design and childhood nostalgia. We’ve been so blown away by all the wonderful people we have met over these past few years—you guys are so fun and supportive, we wanted to do a little something to say THANK YOU. When we decided to do a Month of Color, we knew we wanted to do an awesome Giveaway. Something fun. Something fabulous. And of course something COLORFUL! The first thing that came to mind was Kate Spade. Walking into the Kate Spade store is my happy place! It’s the ultimate eye candy experience….and we just knew a Kate Spade handbag would be the perfect little indulgence. Something we all love, but might not necessarily splurge on for ourselves.

I have to tell you, Dottie and I had the most excellent time picking out something special for you! Of course, we were both immediately drawn to THIS sweet little bon bon! The Hot Pink Bond Street Florence handbag—part of the Florence Broadhurst Collaboration that has everyone swooning. The Kate Spade peeps call this bag, “The Star of our 2012 Spring Collection”. And I can see why. I’m mad for that golden turn lock closure….and dottie was dying over the gorgeous black & white floral print lining. And we both flipped for the “stunning pink” color. Yes. That’s the official name. Stunning Pink. Sigh.

 

 

It’s modern. It’s retro. It’s the Kate Spade Bond Street Bag. c/o us!

See that beauty below? That’s the actual bag you’ll be getting. Oh yes.

**CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATED!**
