As I mentioned earlier this week, we’ve partnered with Zara Terez to bring an entire week of great giveaways. That’s right, each day there is a new handbag up for grabs. Originally this giveaway was just for NYC residents since it involved a scavenger hunt around the city. However, Zara and her team reached out to us and will be giving away those same bags to a different PurseBlog follower each day. Sounds pretty awesome huh? Well better yet, all you have to do is follow ZaraTerez and PurseBlog on Twitter and each day post a comment as to why you’d like to win the bag of the day.

In order to peak interest, Zara or someone for her team will be stopping by this post and offering up the same scavenger hunt hints they are promoting in NYC here. Even if you aren’t in NYC it will be a fun way to feel involved. Stay tuned since there are only 2 more days to go!

Good Luck!

When Proenza Schouler opened up online shopping, they did so by offering limited edition items for sale. One of the items was the Proenza Schouler Wallet, which was offered in six color options. The limited items sold out quickly, yet we managed to grab three of them. And now we are giving one away to a lucky Twitter follower.

This means you could own one of the limited edition Proenza Schouler wallets, in blue to be exact.

How to Enter

1. Follow PurseBlog on Twitter

2. Write to PurseBlog on Twitter why you want to win this wallet. Make sure you include @PurseBlog so we can see you entered. Also, use the tag: #WinPB in your tweet.

Entries will only be counted if they follow the above format. Winner will be chosen at random on May 23rd at 10:00 pm EST. Only one entry per person. Good luck!

Mondays are always a bit sluggish. It doesn’t matter if you had a raging weekend or simply hung around, I don’t know many people who really look forward to Mondays. However, today is a bit different. We’re partnering with handbag designer Zara Terez to bring you an entire week of giveaways!

Starting today, May 3rd through Friday, May 7th you have the chance to win a new bag each day. It’s really rather simple. All you have to do is follow us (purseblog) as well as Zara Terez on twitter. Zara is conducting a scavenger hunt in NYC with clues as to where the bag of the day can be found. But since we don’t all live in NYC, she thought it would be great to extend the giveaway to PurseBlog readers. Once Zara has posted a clue as to where you can find the handbag of the day, post a comment on her twitter page as well as ours and, voila, you’re entered to win.

Have fun and good luck!
