In a long line of me being the last to know, I recently discovered the online vintage shop LA Vintage. How could this have flown under my radar for so long?! I have since spent way too much time getting lost in their vast selection of vintage clothes, shoes, bag and so much more. They carry pieces in a wide range of sizes from the 50s to the 80s and every piece is unique. There's currently a 50s crochet blouse sitting in my closet acquired from the shop that I'm dying to wear once the weather turns warmer. So, when they contacted me about doing a give-away on my blog it was sort of a no brainer! I think the shop is quite lovely and if you haven't checked it out yet, now is the perfect time.
Here's the deal... all you have to do is hop over to LA Vintage, browse around the site (trust me, it won't be painful - ha, ha) and then leave a comment on this post telling me how you'd spend a hundred buckaroos in the shop. It's that easy! The winner will receive a $100 gift certificate to spend in the shop however they like.
I'll be taking comments until Friday when a winner will be randomly selected. The contest is open to everyone, international readers included. Please be sure that your comment includes a way for me to get in touch with you either via a blog link or your email.

1 – 200 of 205 Newer› Newest»LA Vintage has the loveliest dresses! I've been looking for the perfect 50's day dress and they have it-the Claire Mint dress is PERFECT! They also have some absolutely lovely boots and oxfords that I would sell my soul for :) I would love to win the contest, but even if I don't, I have a feeling I'll be patronizing their store.
P.S. I adore your blog. I read it while I eat my oatmeal every morning :) also, if I do win (please, please, please let it be me!) You can contact me at ebrunner4816@gmail.com
Oh my oh my goodness! I adore the Full Skirts Are For Squares dress. Be still my 50s-loving heart! Happy Valentine's Day, lovely lady, and Happy Chinese New Year's Eve as well.

shoes shoes and more shoes.... i would spend it all on shoes. :) great site.
ekoneill@comcast.net
i'd get the pink skirt! and the platform sandals.
OMG! Love the store and there are so many amazing pieces to choose! It's very difficult...maybe the Sophie Floral Dress or the Beach House or the Pearl Evening one.... and I looked just at dresses!!! You're killing me!
I have not heard of this site either! So awesome! I would spend it on the Marianne Minty Dress and the Hooray for Vacations top!
Decisions, decisions! I think I would pick the Captains Orders Dress, and to go with it, the Kenzie platforms......
You're right, that wasn't hard at all:) I think I would buy the Equestrian Fields Bag and the Pretty Sweetie Dress. Sigh. Thanks for doing this!
What a cool site! I would get the mod squad dress.
The Pretty Sweetie dress and a cute waist belt.

I love LA Vintage! So many gorgeous things in one shop... so bad for my budget! :) And I absolutely love the "size-browser" (what would you call that??) thing. Marvel of modern technology, that is - now I don't even have to see the things that wouldn't fit and be tempted by them. When that happens I usually end up gasping in a dress with a tiny waist which I should never, ever have bought haha.
Anyway, I would spend $100 on the 60s Go Go Pastel dress, and throw in $15 extra of my own to add the Kenzie Platforms, which are so perfect I might have stopped breathing for a second when I saw them!
It was really hard to choose. I would like to have Fan Away Dress http://www.lavintage.com/Fan-Away-Dress-80s.htm and thi cute basket bag http://www.lavintage.com/Baske%20Box%20Bag.htm. It's adorable!
I'm looking for a great 50s party dress, and I'm loving the Oh So Blue dress. That one's sold, but it wouldn't be hard to find something else I'd love...
Thanks so much!
Ohh, I'd definitely want the Concrete Discrete Dress!
http://wardrobesandwhimsy.blogspot.com/
Both their navy gravy and go go pastel dresses are dreamy! And I love how they let you search by your specific measurements too!
I went straight for the shoes! I love all of the platform sandals, but so many of them are perfect and yet not in my size! At any rate, I'd get the Bandolino woven wedges, the Connie cork wedges, and Burgundy Blues purse. (That's probably over $100, but that's fine with me...!)
Thanks for hosting this giveaway I'd probably get the Sally Fay Dress! Such pretty dresses!
- JoAnn, Sidewalk Chalk
Oooh, I like "Tulip My Lip Dress 70s" and "1980s Kylie M Dress."
http://bealestreetchic.onsugar.com
Selections Bandage Dress 80s
Concrete Discrete Dress 80s
I'd already be over the $100 limit but it would be worth it!

I'd go with a big bold bag
http://www.lavintage.com/Snake-Straw-Bowler-Bag-80s.htm
and this dress which I think would be great for layering
http://www.lavintage.com/Deal-With-It-Dress-80s.htm
Thanks for hosting this giveaway! best of luck to everyone.
I would definitely throw down for the Floral Crush 70's dress; it would be a hard decision between the beautiful Pinky Dink sweater or Carrie Pom Pom Cardigan. The collection of scarves is amazing as well!
Thank you for the awesome contest!
~ Megan ~
I would go for trying to put together a whole outfit with $100.
I'd start with an interesting dress like the Evita Floral dress ($62)
Then I'd look for a pair of shoes, maybe something like the 80s slouchy booties from the sale section.
and of course I'd have to finish everything off with a pair of sunglasses, like the Darkness glasses.
Either that or I'd just go totally crazy buying lovely vintage accessories.
I love bags and dresses!!
Paqui
angel_chachi@hotmail.com
What an easy task! hehe
I'd spend the $100 on Nickels Lace Up Sandals and By Choice Dress 90s
i love the wilbur work boots.
there are so many great things...but most of them sold already!
http://www.lavintage.com/Sophie-Floral-Dress-60s.htm
What a lovely post!
I would wear the Sophie Floral 60s Dress because I am longing for spring fashion! I plan on having a live action clue night where we all dress up as our characters and no one will suspect that I did it in the library with a noose while I am wearing such an adorable-she-didn't-do-it dress. :)
Your blog is so cheery! I check it at least 5 times a day for a new, exciting post!
I would get the "Object of My Desires" dress
http://www.lavintage.com/Object%20Of%20My%20Desires%20Dress%2060s.htm
and oddly.. I'd pair with with the Stevie Striped Purse
http://www.lavintage.com/70s%20Stevie%20Striped%20Purse.htm
and add the finishing touches with the "Show White glasses"
http://www.lavintage.com/Snow-White-Glasses.htm
And of course I'd use all of these pieces to form a story in my blog!!! It's these pieces that I find incredible!

Jenny (Fashion for Writers)
The Mary Elizabeth Gown and shoes to go with it!
pleasepassthepie.blogspot.com
What a great site! I would probably spend the whole 100$ on shoes..! :D I've only just been browsing the shoes for a few minutes and found several pairs that I really wouldn't mind owning :)
Oh, what a great giveaway! I am looking for a dress to wear to my cousin's wedding this summer and think the Janis Embroidered Dress would look fantastic. I might top it off with the Colette Red Cloche for an extra kick.
I would spend it on this dress
http://www.lavintage.com/No-Tea-Party-Dress-60s.htm
Been looking for something flowery, soft, and of course, vintage!
or this one,
http://www.lavintage.com/Made-In-Rio-Dress-80s.htm
the idea wearing it with belt, black stocking, and brown boot just splendid for me!
What a gorgeous shop!! I love all the skirts!

love the pretty sweetie dress! and a ton of other things too, there is so much to choose from!
So many cute dresses! I'd definitely put the $100 towards the No Speed Limit Dress and the Silver Dollar dress! Beautiful! :)
Oh my! How could you possibly only spend $100 at LA Vintage? By just scanning through their wonderful clothes, shoes and accessories I really wish I was payed more. There dresses are things that I covet with all my heart. There 1950's section I just adore, and I wish every time I look at another beautiful picture that I could own what they are selling.
If in fact I did have a hundred bucks to spend(the thought is fantastic!), at first I wouldn't know how to start. But after some deep breaths I'm sure I would find a lovely dress or two that would fit the bill. Or maybe a cute pair of shoes...so many choices!
I don't have a blog(I wish I had the time), but my name is Emily and you can reach me at emilyalaska22@yahoo.com. Have fun picking the winner! <3
My perfect outfit pick would be:
Lydia Tangelo Blazer 80s
Melissa Oxfords
Amy Lee Denim Jumper 80s
Aurelie
What a terrific giveaway! (and yes...it was indeed easy and fun to browse the store, though not so easy to make choices!)
I'd start with a dress, like the All Eyes on Me dress (http://www.lavintage.com/All-Eyes-On-Me-Dress-60s.htm) or the Twister dress (http://www.lavintage.com/Twister-Dress-80s.htm), and then grab a beautiful scarf or hat!
ejessop at gmail dot com
What a fantastic find! This shop looks incredible. I think I'd spend $100 on pretty dresses. I need some bright spots in my closet to help me get through my first winter in NYC!
I would get both bowtie heels and maybe some of the cute dresses -there's so much to browse through!
The Janis Embroidered Dress is amazo! As is the Sophie Floral Dress, wow! The selection is endless!
ali@soooali.com
I would get these things:
The Claire Mint Dress $675
Loco Coco Skirt $17.50
and the Baske Box Bag $16
with a total of $98.50
Just under $100 - woo! Hope I win. Want want want. I want that bag pretty bad so if it's still there at the end of the week I might nab it anyway :-D
My contact email is available on my blog :-D
I love the dizzy lizzy Mod dress!
I spent most of my life in jeans and t-shirts. Weary of this wardrobe, I have begun as of about a year ago to wear skirts and dresses. this is a slow process considering I am not blessed with expendable wealth. A few things that caught my eye:
http://www.lavintage.com/The-Brown-Hibiscus-Dress-50s.htm
http://www.lavintage.com/Drench-Wench-Dress-70s.htm
In addition to these...growing up in Phoenix has unfortunately influnced my bad habit of wearing flip flops yearly. It is a habit that his since been broken since my move to the midwest. The downside is my recent love of footwear has not been satisfied due to the same lack of finances that cripple my ability to get pretty dresses. I liked these:
http://www.lavintage.com/Kenzie-Platform-8-1/2.htm
http://www.lavintage.com/Roger-Workman-Boots-9AA.htm
So there you go!
Kelly (pilourey at hotmail dot com)
Oh ... pretty much every single one of those 60s era dresses caught my eye. Gorgeous stuff!

Ooooh, what a cute store! I would love the tanya periwinkle shirt and the suri knit dress!

mmmelanieyates@hotmail.com
I'm in love with the Liza Mod Kimono Dress, and I'd throw in the Headed West Saddle bag. So gorgeous! This store is amazing for an afternoon of searching.

When I was little I wouldn't wear jeans save for one gorgeous little floral pair - honestly, I was so terribly sad when I grew out of them - - I kept them for a few years hoping I would magically shrink?!? So, it's easy, I would buy the Darla Floral Jeans for $51 - a grown-up pair to replace the ones I loved when I was 10!!!
The tosca nightie is beautiful and I wish I had it to wear for valentine's day!!! But with this and the jeans I am well over $100 and would certainly be happy with either piece!!!
In any case, a wonderful place to find lovely vintage treasures!
Ooh, I would get the Somebody for Me dress and maybe a pair of cowboy boots, too. What a great site with an awesome selection!
kalexan2@gmail.com
Ah, LOVE the searching by size function!! Definitely will be a repeat visitor to their site. I didn't find any tops that would work, that's my main wardrobe goal right now, but I could definitely go for a dress, a pair of shoes, and then a tooled leather bag--I've been lusting after one for awhile but just haven't been able to bring myself to that just yet.
If I won a $100 gift certificate to LA Vintage I would definitely go for a pair of black boots - they have been on my to-buy list.
I AM IN LOVE. I most definitely want to snatch up the Botanical Scent Dress, among many other pieces. Actually, I am grossly infatuated with the entire dress section.
colourofconfusion@gmail.com
There are too many beautiful dresses to choose from! And a nightie would be nice too!
http://singlesuccessfulstruggling.blogspot.com
oh goodness, so glad you brought this shop to my attention! tottaly loving the Lilia Ruffled Dress 60s
and i wish the 60s Do Gooder Swimsuit hadt sold!
The sophie floral dress and the alice tapestry bag... 100 dollars gone. That was easy.
Oh wow, I would get the Biz Bee Skirt and the Floral Florence bag! How wonderful :)
I love LA Vintage its definitely fabulous. If I had some money to spend here I would definitely act crazy and get like 3 or 4 pairs of their boots there so perfect its unbelievable.
kirstiemccarthy@yahoo.com
Seriah boots. And a dress of some sort. Maybe the Sophia floral dress.
Thanks for running the contest!
I love this site! I'd get the Winter Romance cardigan and the Starlight peep toes.
I'd spend it on flowy summer dresses, winter boots, springy shoes, and tons of accessories.
hollyberry 81 at hotmail dot com
There are several lovely dresses and shoes I wouldn't mind adding to my closet. :)
Wow, I love that site so much! I think I got a little giddy looking through all the lovely clothes, but the one standout item for me is the Carry Pom Pom Cardigan. I want!
LA Vintage is such a cool site! Their selection is so awesome. I would totally stock up on spring dresses and skirts! Oh, the florals!
Holy cow, how did I not know about this site? The way they've set up the search so you can go by measurements is BRILLIANT - takes a lot of the crapshootin' out of hunting for vintage online.
I'd go for the supercute Brickwall Waterfall scooter dress...and then kick in an extra two bones to cover the Pepperdine pumps (holy crap, it's adorable vintage shoes in size 11!)
While it's several inches to big for me, their 'In the Tree Tops' Maxi Dress is beautiful and I wouldn't mind going through the trouble of pinning it everyday. I'd also get their adorable 'Rebecca' Pumps. <3 Thank you very much for sharing the site!~
This is a great shop, so much good stuff! I love the Nancy Frock, the High Waist Jester Pants, and the Childhood Dreams Dress. I would have a hard time narrowing it down further!
Their shop is so diverse! And there's so much to choose from. I definitely fell in love with the winter romance cardi and the hunt club oxfords, though they are a bit big for me.
janninemaso@hotmail.com
First, I'd start with this amazing alligator purse:
http://www.lavintage.com/Alligator-Jones-Bag-60s.htm
Next, I'd get my first pair of oxfords:
http://www.lavintage.com/Alexander%20Oxfords%208%201/2.htm
Kelly ( aeuriopa@yahoo.com )
If I had $100 to spend at LA Vintage, I would buy as many pairs of strappy, wooden-soled platforms as I could. I've fallen hopelessly in love with Swedish Hasbeens shoes, but can't stand the price tag--so any shoe that is similar (like the Bicycle Heels or 70s Carrie Platforms on the LAV website) but less expensive immediately captures my heart!
xoxo, Erin Robertson
errobert@uark.ed
Hmm theres so much! I would definitely choose the suzanne mod dress 60s with the stuart weltzman pumps...add some black tights from my closet, a blazer, and maybe a bowling hat
-Maia
ninetieschild92@aol.com
Very pretty website with awesome clothes to boot (: I'll be taking the One For My Love Cardigan 50s and throw in another $5 of my own to get the lovely Crochet Monet Sweater 70s please!
i'd buy the susie doozy sweater (what cute colours!) and the mammoth rust suede bag.
email teganacorker at hotmail dot com
I love this store! How would I spend $100? So many ways! First I'd buy the Red Rocket Flats in size 8.5, then maybe the Botanical Scent or Floral Crush Dress. I also love the Rebecca flats.
What a cool store! I love all of their 60's dresses, especially the go go pastel dress. So adorable! Also, the red rocket flats would be perfect for spring!
catsmidwestmayhem@gmail.com
Love this store! Especially the 'You Babes Dress' and 'Half Moon Pleated Clutch'. Now that I've put a whole outfit together I really really want them :-)
what an awesome giveaway! I've really been wanting to add some vintage dresses to my wardrobe but not knowing really how to get around the cost factor. This would be such a great opportunity if I won. Some of those 60s dresses would definitely be on my list!
dothewhirlwind (at) gmail (dot) com
What a nice and easy mission. I'd opt for this darling dress:
http://www.lavintage.com/Claire%20Mint%20Dress%2050s.htm
and cobine it with those heels:
http://www.lavintage.com/Karen-Scott-Heels-9.htm

There's a 80's dotted secretary dress that I love and a 70's water blouse that is so fresh and would be so cute in the summer time!
Love your blog!

I would buy a floral patterned seventies dress and save it for summer. Then I would find a roof to climb up on, and sit there in the middle of the night, drinking yogi tea and meditating.
Wow, so much beautifulness! The shoes, the coats, and the shirtdresses are particularly intriguing to me - that's where I'd spend my gold coins!
lovely! definitely would have to grab up some of the swimsuits and a dress!
It's funny.... I'm a 90s kid, and I just can't get used to seeing the floral print prairie dresses and babydolls going as "vintage." I remember the moment they looked dated, sometime around 95, and now they look fresh again. Makes me feel elderly. And like I'll never throw anything out again.
Despite that I found some lovely stuff at LAVintage. With 100 bucks in my pocket I'd take:
Memphis Boots (9.5! I can't believe they have my size... usually vintage is for the teensy-footed) and the "80s brown squares bag."
That leaves a little cash left over. I liked some of the accessories. Maybe brown leather gloves.
(rcampb48 _at_ uwo.ca)
ok...ok..
i just did a quick browse, but I am seriously in LOVE with some of their vintage swimwear. There's a good chance thats where i would spend it.
I saw the Claire mint dress from the 50s and almost screamed. I has to be one of the cutest dresses ive seen in a LONG time. I would also get the Nicole Kitten heels and i would be able to not spend a little extra on those adorable grey sweet step heels. They are just too cute to let go! This store just makes me excited... and I havent even looked at the bags yet!
Omg, if i won a $100 to LaVintage. I would be so happy because honestly I haven't purchased new clothes in 3 months. That's not really such a long time, but it would be a nice change to have new clothes. I love all the 1950s clothing!
iris.palma@sbcglobal.net
Oooh I'd be doing the pretty sweetie dress 60's and those Peter Kaiser heels in 5.5. :)
I love the Simone LBD and the 60's oxford heels!
I would snatch up one of the 80's dresses and a skirt. Love it all.
Ooh, this is difficult. I would probably go with the True Blue Dress, Hints of Color Sandals, and the Headed West Saddle Bag. So many pretty things!
lots of big life events coming up for family and friends this year, with all the celebrating that goes along with it... I'm loving the Pretty Sweetie Dress for my sister's baby shower! Or maybe the Katie Kaleidoscope Dress for my BFF's bachelorette party... too many choices! Thanks for sharing this site!
I love the Shirley Sunday Dress from the 60s and the Christmas Party Skirt from the 60s also. I see a trend and it wasn't even intentional.
Thanks for the opportunity!
Wish For Me Coat 70s $74.00 and the 70s Sheer Floral Dream Dress $21.50. = 95.50
With Tax and what not $100 dollars-ish
oh my it's hard to choose! the china garden dress,the de wesse swimsuit, the mine is lime sweater......
Wow, so many gorgeous dresses, but I would die for some of the scarves!
email: xfoxglove@gmail.com
I could spend a fortune at LA Vintage.
I love love love the Pretty sweety dress and the twister dress.
and all those shoes I could blow every last penny on them especially the Minnetonka Moccasins, Scallawag heels, and Abagail Platforms.
Love your blog too btw such inspiration.

thank you!!
wooh! I love the pieces LA Vintage carries.
If I have the $100 GC, I'd buy the Claudia Swimsuit, a pair of the rainbow huaraches, and the rest of the money will go to sunglasses. The weather here in the Philippines is already summery. :)
I'm newly following your blog, and I probably shouldn't be writing this on your V-day post, but its the only one of the many love posts that I've come across which has made me smile.
I'm not even kidding when I write this, no joke, my bf of 2 years broke up with me on Sunday morn.. I can't quite believe it still and its Tues in Australia..
So, I'd spend the $$ on mending my shattered heart, the best way I know how- vintage shopping. I'd buy the "Gray cap sleeves 70s" dress and add some of my own $$ to get the "Notations Top 80s" too!
Thanks for sharing a great site too. Sorry to blab, C ya.
Wow that site is awesome, they have a plus size section and that's so rare to find. But yeah i saw an amazing dress i would get if i won this contest.
fobulousstyle@gmail.com

I think I would spend all of the money on the dresses!!!
Thanks!
i would totally buy the pretty sweetie dress 60s, and then buy some shoes! i need myself some great sandal wedges for spring :)
It's a bit over a hundred bucks but I'd pay the difference because the pieces I want are so lovely! I'd totes buy the Abagail Platforms and the Darla Floral Jeans. In fact, I'd wear 'em together for spring!
Such a great giveaway, thanks for the opportunity!
darlingvintage@gmail.com
Oops, I was on my brother's account. Haha, sorry.
darlingvintage@gmail.com
Hello! Love your blog and had never heard of this site before. Wasn't too hard to pick items out at all! I would have bought the Pretty Sweetie dress and Edward Sharpe Briefcase bag :)
Probably cute shoes or dresses with adorable bows. I think something Orla Kierly Spring'10 inspired
WoW thanks for showing me this site! sooooo many cute dresses on there. I am temped to say i would buy some nice vintage for my boyfriend, but to be honest i would just spend it on a cute 60's mod dress and some shoes to go with it.
*fingers crossed (timkoj@gmail.com)

I never ever have any luck in that type of giveaways, but at least i tried.
You can email me at HeKurvet@hot.ee
I have been searching for months for just the right pair of vintage boots. I think I may have finally found the right place. I would definitely use the $100 to buy a great pair. Great site with a large selection.

Spent way too long on the site. I am in love with the pearl evening dress and would probably also pick up the outsiders biker jacket.

I would buy those things!
(And pay 5$ more...^^)
I've always loved LA Vintage! I don't know why I haven't bought anything there, everything is so lovely! Maybe this will give me the chance to?
Definitely a couple mod dresses and some 70s platform wooden heel sandals!
oh my, this website is splendid! i know it has been mentioned how many times, but the pretty sweetie dress has had my heart from the beginning. and the annabelle 60s loafers - gorgeous!
love your beautiful blog!

I'm trying to save up for post grad studies at the moment so some money for beautiful things would be ever so appreciated
You can shop vintage shoes by size??? Be still my size 10 wearing sole(s)!
I'd probably buy some lovely shoes (!!!) and a cute little dress that I'll never take off. Swoon!
Love the blog, love the shop!
I would spend it all on shoes! If I'm the lucky winner, it would make my day! Thanks for the chance to win!

well, the Kermit Cut Out Swimsuit would DEF help hide this beer/wine gut i have lately... I'd love to blow $100 there.. I bet I could do it faster than anybody else. thanks for the giveaway!

Wow, it would be so difficult to choose! I'm so torn between the Ms. Grinch 1960's Coat, the Renee Bow heels, and the 1950's Winter Romance Cardigan. I would probably have to add some extra cash and purchase all three!
What a great shop!

i feel like sometimes it's IMPOSSIBLE for us not so tiny girls to find great vintage stuff online. looking through the etsy shops of my favorite bloggers i stare at a selection of adorable things in xs and s, but very rarely do i find an l. luckily, this isn't the case with la vintage. they've got all kinds of amazing dresses, coats, skirts and blouses for those of us with a little bit of meat on our bones.
i'd probably drop the money on a new dress (like the sunflower blues dress or j taylor new york dress) and spend the rest on a cool new pair of flats to tie it all together.

Ooh! The My Connections Dress or Candy Cane Dress and a funky belt.

The Starlo and Atomic Bomb dress are pretty amazing! anne.e.cullen@gmail.com. Annie.
Epic dresses! I'm entering myself in an attempt to win the $100 xD

I am thinking the 60s sailor girl swimsuit and maybe some sandals...the site really is phenomenal!

The dresses and shoes are killing me! I would definitely spend it on a print dress for spring and splurge on boots.
i'm a huge sucker for vintage nighties and swimwear! i love the 70s Citrus Peel Suit...wish it wasn't sold out!
I had a peek at the website. I couldn't believe how many dresses have sleeves that stop at the elbows! Burn scars cover half of my back and my left arm to the elbow - I'm not ashamed of them, but I don't show them off. It really limits my wardrobe options, especially since I'm an idiot who can't stand layering.

I really love vintage floral dresses ... I think the two I would have to go for would be the lovely 50s Botanical Scent Dress, with a floral print that matched everything, and the 80s Ellyn Floral Dress, which just has such an amazing shape.
-Sarah, sarah.ifft@gmail.com
I would get the Maple Oxfords & the Mary Tyler Moore Skirt..I'm a librarian so it totally makes sense!
I cannot believe I haven't seen the LA VINTAGE shop before.:) Thanks. They have lovely pieces.
I would spend the money on some trousers and a pair of oxford flats.
Your blog is wonderful :)

In LOVE with all of their 70's stuff, oh my. I could go for some of those shoes too, sadly the moccasin boots I want are already sold!
xxoo
I would definitely splurge it on spring dresses......I'm so excited for spring...
I would buy a pair of boots, and a dress!
little (dot) blue (dot) shoes (at) gmail (dot) com.
Lovely collection! I would definitely get one of those gorgeous dresses and maybe the zooey pastel romper, those colors are perfect.
I would probably buy a few of those dresses and some of their lovely accessories! What a great contest :)
inbugsdrawers@gmail.com
WOW...I spent hours and hours looking and some of my favourites were sold out and there were too many beautiful ones left I started writing them down but there were so many! I think if I won I would go with how I feel on the day and try and find something with a bit of room for my baby bump!
Aah, my first comment after almost a year (?) of lurking :)
From the LA Vintage shop I'd probably buy just shoes. And probably for more than 100$...just seeing so many pretty flats and heels in my size (high street fashion has been getting more and more dissapointing, and I don't have the money to the designer shoes that cause my heart to skip a beat) is making me so happy.
If I get to be the lucky winner, I can be contacted at tuntematon_olento@hotmail.com

I love the Do I Make You Randy Jacket 60s with a solid white shirt, skinny jeans, with the Man Eater Heels! Great for a night out.

DRESSES!
I would love to get some clothes for this spring and summer! That'd be a ton of fun :)
A 50s dress and a pair of shoes! Easy choice. Those are great clothes.
The Bobby Joe Boots. Or the Romina Reversible Coat! Or the Baby Blue Pumps, how cute :D
... or anything, really!
How would I spend a hundred buckaroos? QUICKLY! Look at all the beautiful pieces already sold!
I am such a 60s girl and I really like the Gloria Skirt, but I'm pretty sure I couldn't pass up the Claire Mint Dress from the 50s if it were still available. It's beautiful and has a similar vibe to the dress Zooey Deschanel's character wore as a wedding guest in 500 Days of Summer. Just lovely!
I only recently began building my vintage wardrobe so I would also spend this prize very gratefully, too. Thanks for the chance to win! My e-mail is kntimko at gmail dot com.
Love the fadoras on some of the girls! so grannie chic!
How did I not know about this store before?!
I love how one can search specifically for the era you are looking for- nice! I love the dresses. And skirts. Gosh, cuteness.
love me LA, love me some vintage :)
I can never find any good vintage shoes on my own, because I have big feet! I can't tell you how often I come across the perfect pair in a thrift store and they are a size seven. Always with the size sevens! Sigh.
But this store, with so many size 9's in one place..? I could easily spend a hundred bolstering my feeble shoe collection.
(If I were so lucky as to win, you can click on my user name to get to my blog)
Thanks!

the madeleine blue coat, an accent with a lovely pair of grey suede boots.
Wow, I love the 70's dresses! I could snag a few of them quite easily!
Wish they'd take the sold items off the site though... what a tease :) They have sooo much cute stuff!
Thanks for introducing me!
The Love Me Tender Dress and the Oliver Victorian Boots. That's about $125. Of course I'd go over a hundred!
I would spend the $100 on River Boat Boots 7 and Made in Rio Dress 80s! It is such a great store!
madisonsnaric@gmail.com
I adore the dresses, especially the Got To Love It Dress 70s!
barinda@gmail.com
Lovely Giveaway!!
To many great dresses to choose from... might need some help there!
Thank you, Ingeli
The Madeline '60s coat and the Galliano platforms.
I love dresses but I always figure a belted trench coat passes for a dress in cooler weather!
Ooh I would love to get the Nancy frock or Claire Mint dress! So many lovely dresses :)
I love the Pucker Up Baby Dress and the Millie Striped Dress, but even more I love those bags and scarves..I'm in love with every single onw of them, and since I don't have a lot of money right now this certificate would be perfect! :)
annette.am.mueller at gmx.de
Well I definitely would want the Suzanne Mod dress. And probably the Lime is Mine sweater. Wish me luck!
So many cute things! I'd get the Thumper Floral Coat Dress.
Thanks,

I love LA Vintage. I sometimes spend hours parusing around the site for cute finds. The problem is that I barley buy anything because it's out of my price range so this contest is perfect. I've been eyeing the Lilia Ruffle dress for ages so with the $100 I would definitley buy that. I would also get the T strap Low Wedges and the Baske Box Bag. I would buy everything if I could, but I'm pretty sure that would cost way over $100.

Oh my good gravy boat! There is far too much to choose from. Some of those dresses are going to haunt my dreams, but if I had to choose something to spend money on I can't help but cave in on the 80s flowers and peacocks shorts and those tapestry granny boots. Make a statement, AND spread some floral joy in the upcoming late winter/early spring looks.
You're an absolute doll. Thank you for doing this!
Kiss.

i love these clothes!!! but sadly, many of the dresses i like are the ones that are sold out =X from the MANY remaining, i would go for the Starlo 80's dress and pair it with my black tights and the Maple Oxfords. This would be over $100 total but I'd be willing to get it at the discounted price after the gift card!! :)
