I hadn't checked my PO BOX for a while and was thrilled when I did the other day to find it stuffed full of wonderful packages.
The Hanging Space sent me this darling vintage dress as a surprise and I think it's fab. Their website stocks Australian and vintage labels with a nice mix of accessories as well.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Then I opened up a rather slick envelope from Mag Nation to find this:
I also have some movie tickets to give away as well to the latest Jane Campion film, 'Bright Star' staring our own Abbie Cornish.
So I thought as it's the new year what better way than to put it all together as a give-away to say thanks for all your support in 2009.
All you have to do is leave a comment, comp closes this Friday 8th January AEST.
3 runners up will each win a double pass to see the film as well!
You will receive:
One vintage dress, no tags so no size but if you think we look the same it will fit. Precise, no?!
Two x $5 vouchers to Mag Nation stores valid in Australia and New Zealand. Check out their website for locations.
One double pass to see 'Bright Star' at participating cinemas Australia wide.

I definitely want to see Bright Star. We studied The Piano in English this year, and I love Jane Campion's style! I hope the wardrobe and music is as good as it was in The Piano.
I loved all those hoop skirts and bonnets!

No amount of email and blogging can ever replace the thrill of finding parcels in the PO Box, or mail box in my case. Always a thrill. Do you remember that book, Free Stuff For Kids. I love that book. A generous giveaway is a great way to start the new year. Thank you.
Hi LM,
Just started following your blog the past few weeks and am enjoying it very much; you represent my beloved Melbourne's warmth and elegance perfectly. Mag nation is like a vortex on the street! Everytime I'm on Elizabeth St. that place just sucks me in!!
cheers!
You are a generous girl. My day isn't complete without checking out your blog, it's taken me to lots of other great sites.
Happy new Year!
Oh Gosh - That dress is sooo pretty. Thank you for being so generous - and just after Christmas too!

oOoo totally want that dress! And also dying to see Bright Star (although Abbie Cornish annoys me greatly)!
My goodness! I can't believe you are giving all that away. You are the most generous soul.
You are my fashion inspiration every day.
thank-you for running this competition, the perfect way to start the year :)
xxJay
My goodness. The dress is just stunning.
Bright Star looks amazing, there is a point in the trailer were Keats says “There is a holiness to the heart’s affections you know nothing about.” where I just want to squeal like a teenager again. My heart stops.
What a fun give away for the start of a new year - happy new year to you!
wow LM, your giving away such wonderful treats.... a new dress, a magazine & a trip to the movies!
happy new year!

How nice to still get old fashion mail :) While I love email a letter or parcel in the mail wins hands down!

That is kind of you to give away that dress when it looks stunning on you! After spending Christmas in minus fifteen degrees (and sometimes even colder!!) I am so excited to return to dress-wearing, sunscreen-smelling and sandal-friendly Australia! Another dress and a good movie wouldn't hurt either, so count me in;)
Happy New Year... The dress looks great!
*sigh* what a super cute dress. i love it.
cute cute cute cute cute dress. The print would actually look great as pillow cases I think!
ooh great giveaway!
the dress looks lovely :)
My heart just stopped. That dress looks breathtaking on you...I adore it! xx

I wannna be at the giveaway!
many kisses LM!
I have been following your blog for sometime now and admittedly I'm obsessed... Keep up the great work LM!
Lady Melbs I am a fashion tragic so have signed up to follow your blog for guidance and inspiration!! Now you are giving away prizes? What more could a girl want?!
Nina
Brightstar looks like a lovely movie
thanks for the freebies LM!
Do want! Brightstar is by all accounts sounding wonderful, not to mention sitting in an airconditioned cinema, haha!
Bright Star > Brilliant cinematography, outstanding acting and delightful fashion. I'd love to see it again xx
Floral dresses, magazines and a great movie, what more could a girl ask for? Thanks Lady Melbourne!
Love the colours in the dress... gorgeous!!
I've been wanting to see that movie. Great dress, too! Annie.
OOOH! Am I too late?!
Do you read ALL the comments? Is there a particular type of comment I should leave? I like that your blog inspires me to try different things with my wardrobe. On another note, I was a little disappointed with the Sartorialist in Melbourne... I think there are a range of stylish Melbournites and he only photographed a few. In my humble opinion anyway.
I can't wait to go see Bright Star! And the colours on that dress are beautiful xx
