Five years ago today I decided to build a website with zero (ok almost zero) experience. I don’t really count my CS 200 module in University because I built something pretty crap and that was around the turn of the century (literally).
So torontoShopoholic.com is 5 today. Wow. I seriously didn’t give much thought to the fact that I would still be blogging and writing about of all things shopping and style 5 years later. But here I am.
One thing I know for sure is that if people had not started catching on to what torontoShopholic is all about I wouldn’t still be doing this. Yes it takes a long time to build up a blog following. Even the “overnight” sensations will tell you there is alot of largely unpaid work that goes into blogging.
Still I love it. I like having a space to share what I have to say and be creative. But I want to say Thank You. Whether you have been following for 5 years (Thanks Mom!) or 5 days, I have alot of gratitude for you following my little piece of the internet.
So I am saying Thank You in the one way I know how; with a HUGE Week Long GIVEAWAY!!!!!
The first giveaway is a $100 gift card to shop ELUXE + a Song of Style Sweatshirt/T of your choice. If you aren’t in the know ELUXE is a Toronto based online luxury retailer that is known for their extensive selection of Mini Macs, casual luxe labels like Joie and Splendid as well as fantastic designer labels like Clover Canyon and Rebecca Taylor. I am a part of their blogger network but I THANK YOU very much team ELUXE for sponsoring this giveaway. The collage below is my picks for on which I might spend that $100.
I have been loving all the different pop-up shops that have been making appearances on the site and the Aimee Song collaboration has proven to be quite popular. ELUXE has free shipping over $150 and just started shipping to the US.
This giveaway is open to USA & Canada. Bonus if you happen to be local to Toronto because you will get a free styling session too! There are plenty of ways to enter, so get to it.
