I am so excited about this giveaway, it couldn’t be more fun. Or more racy. It’s based on a scenario that it is all too familiar for so many of us girls: You meet a guy, sparks fly and one thing leads to another. A magical encounter ensues and the world is all rainbows, sunshine and bluebirds singing sweet songs. Until the next words out of Mr. Wonderful’s mouth are “Did you used to be a bit of a slag?”
The horror! Ring any bells? For Miss Jacqueline White, a London-based fashion and costume designer and stylist who can create just about anything, it was these very pitfalls of dating that provided her lightbulb moment. After enduring the unthinkable and listening to her friends’ own shocking tales of pillow talk faux pas she began collecting these ‘post-coital clangers’ (love that) and embroidering them on T-shirts along with the date and location of the love crime, which became her debut collection. This saucy siren will not suffer in silence.
Other wicked utterings include “Spare me the lifestory”; “Just don’t fall in love with me”; “I run with a pretty sexy crowd” (that one is highly laughable) and gasp “As a woman you have nothing to offer the world.” Oh no he didn’t. Oh yes, he did.
Miss Jacqueline White has generously offered to embroider the winning clanger – submitted by you! – on one of her original appliquéd woman-in-the-throes-of-passion T-shirts. Brilliant!
So, if you’re willing to share/confess/blubber the cocky communiqué that put the passion in the crapper, you could win your very own bespoke Miss Jacqueline White piece!
Now, certainly this behaviour is not limited to girl/guy relationships as nastiness in intimate situations knows no bounds, so this contest is open to anyone who has done the shame walk home shaking their and asking the world in general “Did he/she really say that to me??”
To enter please visit The Swelle Life for details. The contest will run until midnight of Sunday, November 8, London time. The super lucky winner will be drawn at random, and announced on Monday.
Good luck!
