The Classicist Holiday Gift Guide Giveaway

GIVEAWAY ENDED 11.13.09 -- WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED BY MONDAY 11.16.09

The holidays are around the corner! As a kid, the holiday season was my favorite time of year. Why? Well, I'm the youngest and the only girl in my family, so I get whatever I want. Spoiled? Yup. Rotten? No. Nowadays, I don't ask for much or anything really. But, I love a good present!

Chelsea of PinkRockCandy, Melissa of Fashion Trend Guide, Jamee of Confessions of a Marc Addict, Christina of Candybox and yours truly are collaborating to bring you a 5-week Holiday Gift Guide and giveaway for that unique gal in your life. We're kicking off the Holiday Gift Guide with a giveaway for the Classicist!

The Classicist enjoys clean lines and classic shapes. Elegant is her middle name. Not sure of who she is? Think Holly Golightly or Victoria Beckham. One lucky person will be able to win the classic yet edgy Juma jacket or the simple and pretty Rachel Leigh earrings from Chickdowntown, a total value of more than $300!

To enter and win, leave a comment (link located near the post title) with your e-mail address and what you think is the ultimate classic item. On Friday November 13, 2009, one of you will be picked at random!

I think the classic item is the Blazer. It has been around for decades and can be virtually worn with anything.

The ultimate classic item is the little black dress. The perfect lbd can take you literally anywhere. Dressed down for day, professional for work, and dressed up for night. Classic.

Are you kidding way too easy. Simple, classy and sexy, the 'mock stocking' tights of course. Wearing tights like those get you into trouble, the good kind that is...

Hi, I love all the items!
Definitely all of them are THE ultimate classic item!
But for me, the must have for every occasion and never gets out of style, is the black dress!
You can make it every style, and add any accessory you want. That is why I love it.
Thanx,
Lucy ♥

The ultimate classic item is the floral dress. It's very dynamic and can be dressed up with pumps or dressed down with a cardigan and oxford boots.

I think the ultimate classic item is a simple, black dress. It is classic yet versatile. You can pair it with colorful pumps or red lips for some pop, pearls for sophistication, or flats for a casual look.

A little black dress never goes out of style.

Jaime. said...

Whenever I think of the word 'classy', I think of a woman dressing up, spending an hour creating a perfectly coiffed chignon in front of the mirror, and, of course, dabbing herself with that classic Chanel Perfume.

miss ambiguity said...

it'd have to be the watch. Time is of the essence. aand it would look good with any outfit.
We always search for time in life...and having it right on our wrists make it so much easier to be more organized!!!

Time's precious!

Valerie Chao said...

What says classic better than a little black dress?

Lourdes said...

I think that the Classic look is Awesome! :)

Valencia Lia said...

The perfect classy and timeless item is either Chanel No 5, a sleek black pencil skirt, or a pair of nude Loubs. Chanel No 5 smells like a woman, a black pencil skirt can be dressed up or down, but always looks ladylike, and a pair of nude pumps makes anyone's legs look much much longer.

Cheers! I love the post.

Classic Item: rounded toe, stacked heel. Think of the everyday secretary in the 50's. Perfection.

Cat said...

LBD-a deffinite winner. a classic look that can be spiced up or left as-is

Nhat Truong said...

Christian Louboutin ‘Bouquet Platform’ – Neiman Marcus
That is my choice for the ultimate classic. When you look at those heels, you can see the classic flowery detail, very simple but original. The designer is very bright and talented when he chose black and soft pink for this heel. It reflects the girly beaury but strong inside.

A cocktail ring. You can dress any outfit up with a big, fancy-looking ring!

Cambry Rene said...

I think the ultimate classic piece is the black stiletto, and the confidence to rock it throughout the ages to make it timeless.

The feeling a stiletto gives a gal is almost unbelievable (when setting aside the pain after a long night or day). Not only that, but they make a woman feel like a woman.

I think the most essential classic item, is the grey cardigan. It can be dressed up or dressed down.

Emily said...

I think the essential classic item is a string of pearls - they make any outfit classier.

ana said...

Diamond stud earrings! Even better when worn with a quilted Chanel bag!

Samantha McSween said...

A classic, sheek and ultra versatile item would have to be a black blazer. It can be worn casually with jean shorts or spiced up with stilettos and a dress for that "oh so sophisticated look".
A black blazer is the must have piece in everyone's wardrobe. A true classic indeed.

daisymay said...

A trilby, it adds an edge to any outfit and can be found in so many colours and fabrics that you can buy one to match every piece in your wardrobe

Alacransita84 said...

I would have to say the Black Dress. It can be worn to work, When going out, and so many other occasions. There are also so many choices in accessories, etc... that will go well with it. You can make it look Classy, Flirty, Business-like, etc... So it would definitely be my choice.

The ultimate classic item... ooo that's tough! I'm going to go with a classic trench coat, a la Burberry - it can be dressed up or down, and it increases your chic-factor no matter what you're wearing underneath!

#6 Chronograph watch crosses over nicely into every style. It's so Audrey! It wears well with everything shown here. It can be dress-up and dress-down. That's what classic does, it looks approperiate and timely everywhere, all the time.

June Paski said...

I think the classic item is tee, jeans and shirt, they're never out of trend and still trend until now

Samantha said...

Ah... can red lipstick be considered a classic item? Because that is my idea of classic, even more than the LBD, because red is such a sensual color and I feel like it goes right back to the idea of being female (and empowerment in that knowledge).

tinabean said...

The ultimate classic item are some black leggings with an oversized T.

I believe that a black dress is the ultimate classic item because every girl needs a simple black dress. It can be paired with some accessories, some simple or bright colored heels, a cardigan and voila!

annalene said...

I think the Burberry trench is THE classic item!

The Juma is AMAZING. The thing I love the most about it is the fact that you can wear this in so many different ways! Leggings and some platforn wedges or booties, I can totally see myself wearing ( and blogging about this lol) it, the color is great too btw.

The most classic item ever? Hmm I would say a beautifull formfitting black dress. Why? Well every girl needs one, and it will never go out of style. This is the kind of item you can wear you a funeral and a wedding and a party and a jobinterview, that is what makes an item Classic!

Love the post.

Xoxo melodees
