Bloggers United 4: Finally it's Set! (Get a chance to win tickets!)

I'm so psyched that finally I got to watch out for the fourth installment of Bloggers United 4! During the last BUs, it was either I didn't know where or when it was or I was stuck in the sea of school and extracurriculars. Now I'm free and I'm all set to go on December 15th/16th! FINALLY! :D

I just bought my ticket online recently. Well, I actually bought two 'cause shopping would be lonely with just by myself, right? But then I thought, hey, why not get a chance to meet people and treat them to a date then?

Soooo...

I'm launching my very first blog giveaway! Woot woot!
Hehehe! More about this silly photo soon :D
Up for grabs: A ticket to Bloggers United 4: An Interactive Shopping Affair @World Trade Center c/o World Bazaar Festival on December 15 or 16,2012 (I'll be picking 2 winners OR MORE!)

Joining is very easy, like all others. Here are the instructions:

Step 1: You gotta add me in GFC (Google Friend Connect) if you have one.  (Plus pogi points in winning!:D) There's a widget somewhere there in the sidebar, just hit + >>>>

Don't have an account? No problem! Step 2 doesn't require you one!

Step 2: Review my past posts (or wait for the ones to come before the contest period ends) and pick one you like. Make the most creative comment in any one, and voila, you're in!

Step 3: For some more winning pogi points, share Fad Salad or this giveaway on Facebook or Twitter! No need to tag or hash tag anything, just be sure to post the links for reference, of course. You can also add/follow/+fan/hype me or Fad Salad up in FB, Twitter, Lookbook.NU, Chictopia, Fashiolista, BlogLovin and NuffnangX (search for: Fad Salad/http://fadsalad.blogspot.com).

Step 4 would just be for formality and increased chances of winning: Comment below this thread with your name, e-mail address, the link of your comment or the post you left a comment on and the link of your Facebook and/or Twitter account and your share (if you did).

So how will winners be picked?

I'll judge the comment based on creativity or wisdom (haha, no I mean, those who'll even impart tips and great critiques) with a point scale of 1-10, with 10 being the highest. Then, I'll up the points from all the adding/sharing which would be the following:

  • Adding me in GFC - 5 points
  • Having another friend add me in GFC - 5 points each friend
  • Sharing Fad Salad/this giveaway- 5 points each share
The ones with the most points would win. That's it. (:

Contest Period: Today up till December 2, 2012 9:00 am, Manila Time (that's exactly 4 weeks so there's so much time to join!)

How do the winners claim their prizes?

We can meet up whenever before or during the event. I might be going during the second day only but I might also go on the first. We'll see. We can just talk it over text once the giveaway's done. (:

Now, I'm not expecting many adds or shares 'cause this may not be too big a deal, but those who would take the effort would really deserve more chances of winning, right? And unlike most online giveaways I browse, I don't like leaving everything to fate and randomness (not that there's anything wrong with that), but I think these prizes should be given to those who'll be most creative and "effort-ful." Also, just to give the emphasis, I might be picking more than two winners so get yer creative juices flowing!

And for all you bloggers out there who'll be joining BU4... See you there! Can't wait!

27 Dress-Ups 04: Monochromatix

Oh, hello blogging. We meet again. After all the busy-ness, finally!

It’s the middle of the week and it all feels so dull. There are just these unavoidable times when you can’t help feeling out of your game. Good thing at the end of it, I still feel pretty fab despite the monotony. Haha!
As a tribute to monotonous middles of the week, I sported monochrome hues in this look. Grays and black and whites just really feel so natural to me. I bet they’ll never go out of style in whatever generation to come.
Of course, pops of color would be advisable. A pinch of red timelessly does the trick. Maybe a red belt or something would make this look better. But I was too in to a monochrome look to even consider.



Well, have a less dull week ahead. Hope we all have more exciting surprises along the way. Happy halloween btw! Hope we have a halloween thing later at work so it'll fun! :D
