Win some Durvillea Wine – just think seaweed

December 2nd, 2009

We recently profiled Meg and her family’s wine label Durvillea. It’s summer time and holiday season and no doubt you’re going to be going to parties or hosting them yourself sometime soon and we reckon that Durvillea is a wonderful wine to accompany those activities (or even to sit inside drinking by yourself when it’s raining. But maybe that’s just me). So, exciting news! Those lovely Durvillea ladies want you to win some to make holiday entertaining easier!

Because Durvillea is a seaweed, we thought it would be great if you came up with an outfit inspired by seaweed. You can assemble a fantasy one on Polyvore, dress yourself up and take a photo, or draw a picture – we don’t mind how you enter as long as you do it! You’ve got until December 12 to get your entry into our comments section. The best submission will be chosen by a panel of experts and will win a mixed half case of lovely Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio. Two other entries will be drawn at random to win a consolation bottle.

To inspire you, here are the Polyvore sets that Amy and I put together. So get creating, because this wine is delicious and I’m tempted to keep it all to myself – but I won’t… » Read more: Win some Durvillea Wine – just think seaweed

You smell delicious and other good lines

November 24th, 2008

deliciousThe lovely Lou from Delicious has sent us some more goodies to try. Remember how we were in the pink and we wondered what it would be like to get the blues? Well, we’ve got the aquas now, and so can you.

Two out of two people in a blind smell test have said that the aqua hand balm would be for boys and the pink would be for girls, but Amy reckons it would be nice as a bodywash for girls too – and the site agrees, calling Aqua Delicious “fresh, clean and unisex”.  One person described the scent as similar to that of Davidoff Cool Water, while someone else said it was a little generic-Lynxy. I say that it smells manly, but you can decide for yourself because that’s right – we’ve got another giveaway! We have the awesome-feeling hand-balm, some fragrance mist and the body exfoliator, and if you want it, you’ve gotta work for it.

In keeping with the manly theme, gentlemen and ladies, we want you to chat us up. Leave us your best pick-up line in the comments before next Monday, and we’ll choose a winner based on whatever we like the most on that day (so personalised compliments could be a go).

Prize will be sent to NZ addressees only, unless you want to stump up for packaging or send us reciprocal products.
