Birthday Giveaway!



Well dear readers, it's finally come: the end of my youth. Time to panic? Well maybe not panic, but certainly time to invest in some anti-aging products: eye cream, night cream, moisturizers with major SPF, anti-wrinkle and anti-sunspot ANYTHING. Currently as you're reading this, I will be nursing a major hangover while trying to look fabulous poolside at a hotel in Las Vegas! A bunch of girl friends are all celebrating recent birthdays, so we decided to go big and do a girl trip to Las Vegas! Let shenanigans abound.

While I'm gone though, I'm leaving you guys with a present in the form of a birthday giveaway!! There will be 2 prizes: one for Canadian readers, and one for international readers. For Canadian readers (excluding Quebec) who are of age (19+), you can win a Harajuku Lovers perfume kit care of Matchstick! For international readers you will win a personalized prize pack care of moi! Don't worry, the prize pack will not be crappy!!

To win, simply post a comment saying which Being High Maintenance, not Bitchy post is your favourite and why. The top 2 entries will be chosen as the winners! The contest is open until midnight, October 25, 2009 so please enter and thank you each and every one of you out there for reading my blog!!! You are the major reason that I keep writing everyday and I appreciate more than you know.

Ajhhhh Happy Birthday!!! Age is so transient these days anyway!


Personally LOVED the 12 types of facebook/twitter users. I know it's a really recent one, but it's SO TRUE!!!

Mr. T said...

Aww, I love reading what you write! :) I very much appreciate that you continue spend your precious time to write for all of us! :D

For my favourite post? I don't know that I can pick one. I guess if I had to pick, I find the posts on "how to wear X" (like the one on how to wear vests) to be the most helpful. Fashion is a lot about combinations, and while I have a good idea of particular items I might like, combining them into outfits seems like an art that I have difficulty understanding. Your how-to-wear posts in particular, along with many others, help me to understand better.

And hey, then there's those food posts... But I could be biased there. lol :D

Happy Birthday MizzJ!

HAPPY BDAY! Las Vegas is a FABULOUS idea! And you can use your "Club Bitch Face"! Which is also one of my favorite posts. (that and the "Black Tights Make me feel like a cabaret dancer"). The "real high maintenance" posts make me giggle like a schoolgirl!

Hey darling- I just wanted to drop by and wish you a very very happy birthday :) Have fun in Vegas. Sounds like a BLAST!

Lilly said...

Happy Birthday!!! Yay!
And my favorite post is "What's in Your Wallet, er, Bag?". I really like to see this kind of post. Because it is always fun and I am curious too ^^
Thanks for the giveaway!

Happy Birthday Mizz J!! I hope you have a lovely day. Thank you for being generous enough to do a giveaway on your birthday. =]

My fave post is Dear MizzJ: makeup tips for Asian eyes because it really helped me out. I usually am clueless when it comes to knowing where to apply eyeshadows since my crease is really tiny. Thank you for the tips!

My favorite post was one of the first ones i read on you're blog and got hooked. I am a fellow Vancouverite and you had mention the Plenty warehouse sale. I had not heard of it before, so if it wasn't for this blog i would have missed out.

I really like all your posts. I live in Vancouver so it's nice to read about deals and stuff on here, like Forever 21 opening. One of your posts is from a long while back, it made me laugh so hard. You were mentioning something about what guys should not wear and you referred to all the Affliction and Christian Audigier stuff as douchwear. Very true and very funny!!!

Happy, Happy Birthday, darling! :)

I am an International Reader (live in Southern California). Personally, I adored your A Little Bit of Culture post. I quite liked the way you covered so many different topics - music, food, movies. I love posts that cater to so many different subjects! :)

Sheila said...

I love the product review on the Bristols double stick hem tape. I was about to buy it and i think I will after reading your post. I like your honest opinion on products since sometimes it saves me the time and money! Thanks!!

Grace said...

I really like the How Do You Wear It posts. You have a great sense of style and it's helpful to know how to wear pieces that might not be the exact same, but similar.

I'm an intl reader!

Mewer said...

Happy Birthday!!

my fave post is actually a toss-up between the hem tape post and the annoying facebook/twitter post =P

~~ Happy Birthday ~~

My favorite post is the 12 Most Annoying Types of Facebook (and Twitter) users. I had to laugh as I agree with so many.
- The Bad Grammarian - I'm far from being a perfect speller but when you have to read his status 10 times to figure out what he's trying to say .. well .. lol
- The Lurker - so many of them.
- The Crank - I wish they had a good day once in a while .. lol
- I have a new one, the 40+ female that does nothing but tell us she's going drinking!!

Thanks for the giggle from Canada.
