Summer is tantalisingly close.
The sun keeps peeking out, before running away again and driving me back to central heating and overcoats. But in just 2 weeks time it will be June and that’s Summer proper, regardless of the weather!
A couple of weeks ago Fat Face asked me if I’d like to take a look at their new upcycled denim bag, made from pairs of recycled jeans. I said yes, and when it arrived I thought it would make the most perfect beach bag as part of a nice giveaway to take you into Summer!

It’s a nice sturdy bag and is selling on their website and selected Fat Face stores for £20. For every bag sold Fat Face will also donate £5 to the Fat Face Foundation which supports Charities that work to protect the environment.
To make this a proper Summer giveaway I’ve got a few extra goodies to throw in so your full prize will consist of:
- Fat Face Upcycled Denim Bag
- Tatty Devine Telephone ring
- Avon Dial-a-Glow moisturiser
- Retro Print Summer purse and matching lapel pins
- Green floral hairband from Be Gorgeous, plus a 10% off voucher
- 10% off voucher for Vivien of Holloway to go towards a beautiful new Summer frock.

In total the bag and contents are worth over £50!
To enter all you need to do is be a Retro Chick follower and leave a seperate comment for each way you follow on this post.
Or course, if you’re not already a follower then feel free to become one leave your comment for a chance to win. You’ll get one prize draw entry for each item on the list, but just one will give you a chance to win!
These are the ways you can follow Retro Chick:
- Subscribe by RSS feed (this will allow you to use your normal feed reader, or have the blog delivered daily by email) or use the Google Friend Connect module in the side bar.
- Become a Fan on Facebook
- Follow me on Twitter
- Sign up to the Newsletter
Remember, you can get up to 4 entries in the prize draw but you MUST LEAVE A SEPERATE COMMENT for each one!
This is because I use a random number generator to pick the winning comment.
Good Luck!
The Competition will run for 2 weeks, closing at midnight GMT Sunday 30th May International entries are welcome, but the vouchers might not be of much use and I might have to ask for a very small contribution to shipping! Winners will be selected at random from all qualifying entries and notified by email
