			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><h3 style="padding-left: 30px;">It&#8217;s time to announce the winner of this years AMAZING Christmas Stocking!</h3>
<p>There were over 800 entries to sift through, but I plugged the numbers into <a href="http://random.org/" target="_blank">random.org</a>, ever the bloggers favourite random number generator, and came up with a winner.</p>
<p>And that winner is&#8230;..</p>
<p>&#8230;if we could just build up the tension a bit&#8230;..</p>
<p>&#8230;maybe a bit more than that, it is a big prize!&#8230;..</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Loook, at all the goodies&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" title="A Christmas Stocking stuffed with goodies worth over £250" src="http://www.retrochick.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/003.jpg" alt="" width="650" height="433" /></p>
<p>Ok, that&#8217;s enough tension, I don&#8217;t want to come over all reality TV and leave lots of big pauses&#8230;.</p>
<p>Or maybe I do&#8230;.</p>
<p>OK, no, the winner is&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10187" title="kate collison" src="http://www.retrochick.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/kate-collison.jpg" alt="" width="650" height="488" /></p>
<p>Congratulations Kate! Your prize will be with you imminently, if I can bring myself to part with it!</p>
<h3 style="padding-left: 30px;">In Other News&#8230;..</h3>
<p>I have a couple of other exciting things to share as well, so I thought I&#8217;d tag them on the bottom of this, while I&#8217;ve got your attention, sort of!</p>
<p>Exciting news number 1 is that Retro Chick has been included in the Channel 4, <a href="http://www.channel4.com/4beauty/style/fashion-tips/best-fashion-blogs" target="_blank">4 Beauty list of the Best Fashion Blogs</a>, which pleases me greatly! They like my red lipstick reviews apparently, which means I must pull my finger out and write up all these ones I&#8217;ve had queued for ages! Sadly they took a snapshot of my header to use in December, which means that I will forever be on the list in a red dress and Santa hat *sigh*</p>
<p>Exciting news number 2 is from<a href="http://www.vintagenorwich.co.uk/" target="_blank"> Vintage Norwich </a>which has managed to be featured twice recently. Once in the <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/travel/2011/dec/09/best-uk-shops-christmas-shopping?CMP=twt_gu" target="_blank">Guardian </a>in a feature on the best Independent shopping destinations, and once on the <a href="http://enjoyengland.typepad.com/enjoy_england/2011/12/we-love-vintage-norwich.html" target="_blank">Enjoy England blog</a>, which is the official English tourist board site, no less.</p>
<p>Exciting news number 3 is from the <a href="http://historicalsauces.com/2011/12/what-katie-did-and-besame/" target="_blank">Historical Sauces</a>, who, I&#8217;m REALLY excited to announce, will be stocking What Katie Did Stockings and Besame Lipsticks from the New Year. The first order is winging it&#8217;s way to us as you read and you can come and visit us at a <a href="www.vintage-wedding-fair.co.uk" target="_blank">Most Curious Parties Vintage Wedding Fair</a> in February if you&#8217;re need of hosiery or lipstick services!</p>
<h3>Hurrah! Have you got any exciting news to share? I&#8217;m in that kind of mood!</h3>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><h3 style="padding-left: 30px;">On the Twelth day of Christmas Retro Chick gave to me&#8230;&#8230;..</h3>
<p>A Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Fire &amp; Ice.</p>
<p>Ok, so it doesn&#8217;t rhyme and would make a rubbish Christmas song, but it&#8217;s still a lovely festive red lipstick for you to wear to all those Christmas Parties I have no doubt you&#8217;re planning over the next week.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10145" title="Revlon Fire and Ice" src="http://www.retrochick.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Revlon-Fire-and-Ice.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="320" /></p>
<p>Fire &amp; Ice is a shade that Revlon have been making since 1952, and it&#8217;s a nice, classic, red shade that should suit most people. Or, according to the advert, it&#8217;s like &#8220;flaming diamonds dancing on the moon!&#8221; right-ho.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10146" title="fire and ice" src="http://www.retrochick.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/fire-and-ice.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="537" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><h3 style="padding-left: 30px;">Eeeeee! Only 1 day left and someone is going to win one hell of a prize!</h3>
<p>Todays I&#8217;m pulling another gift out of the Christmas Stocking and you can get 2 more entries into the draw.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.farfetch.com/" target="_blank">Farfetch.com</a> is a designer and luxury shopping website that pulls together stock from boutiques all over the world, and they were kind enough to let me pick something from the site to add to the Christmas Stocking.</p>
<p>I spent ages browsing jewellery and accessories, but in the end I picked out something a bit different and chose a set of <a href="http://www.farfetch.com/shopping/women/thornback-peel-union-napkins-item-10121537.aspx" target="_blank">8 napkins by Thornback &amp; Peel</a>. They come from a London boutique called Beyond the Valley and I thought they were a bit festive and would look brilliant on a Christmas dinner table.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10139" title="thornback and peel napkins" src="http://www.retrochick.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/thornback-and-peel-napkins.jpg" alt="" width="399" height="410" /></p>
<p>So, I promised 2 more chances to enter today and here they are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Leave a comment. Any comment.</li>
<li>Follow Retro Chick on Twitter, then come back here and leave another comment to let me know</li>
</ul>
<p>Remember you can get yourself 15 more entries into the draw by going back over the last 12 days posts and entering on each day! All the rules and links to each days posts can be found on <a href="http://www.retrochick.co.uk/2011/12/05/the-12-days-of-christmas-giveaway/" target="_blank">Day One</a>.
