Allow me to introduce you to Deirdre, whose love for vintage jewelry inspired this unique and truly fabulous shop:
Candy Shop Vintage
Deirdre contacted me after one of her most beautiful pieces, a large gold rhinestone brooch, appeared in the Get The Look post for Emma's bow sweater chain. Talking with Deirdre, her love for beautiful vintage pieces comes through. I'll let her tell you a little bit about herself and her shop.
I collect and sell pieces of costume jewelry that are affordable, chic, and have contemporary appeal. I visit estate sales, antiques stores and flea markets all over the east coast. Each item is a special, hand-selected treat and I never choose anything I wouldn't wear myself! Candy Shop Vintage is inspired by the aesthetic of vintage candy stores and soda fountains and I hope that my jewelry elicits that same combination of nostalgia and excitement.
I live in Charleston, SC where I often hold trunk shows and participate in retail events. I love the South and I love visiting the flea markets and antiques stores all over the Southeast. Charleston is a very feminine city, with a lot of beauty and history. Here, it is OK to wear a skirt every day if you want. Emma Pillsbury would love it here!
Emma would love Candy Shop Vintage! Every one of the pieces in her shop is something that would be perfect for Emma, and most certainly for us, too!
Thanks to Deirdre's incredible generosity, I am so happy to announce this really special giveaway. She has offered a beautiful piece of jewelry to WWEPW, which will go to one very lucky reader. Are you ready for this? Seriously, sit down, because you might faint when you see this necklace.
Description
Lovely, ladylike, three strand pearl and green glass necklace. A strand of green glass beads that are finished to resemble jade sits in between two elegant strands of pearls. The necklace closed with an ornate gold clasp, set in the center with a green glass bead. Absolutely stunning! Retail $65.00
I KNOW, RIGHT? Isn't it gorgeous? Can't you just see Emma wearing it? Except it won't be Emma wearing it! It will be a WWEPWer! And it might be YOU!
How To Enter
1. Please visit Deirdre's shop, Candy Shop Vintage. Look at the lovely, handpicked pieces she has in her shop. Try not to drool. Buy something, if you can!
2. Leave a comment here, telling us which of the pieces from Candy Shop Vintage is your favorite. Or maybe tell us which one you'd like to see on Emma. Basically, spread the Candy Shop Vintage love.
Entries will be accepted until 9PM on Thursday, May 27.
Everyone who reads WWEPW knows that it is very important to me to support Etsy artists and shops as much as possible. In a world of strip malls and giant department stores, where we take home our goodies in boring plastic bags, isn't it so nice to receive a carefully and often beautifully wrapped package with a handwritten note by someone who created or selected something by hand, simply because they love to?
Thank you, Deirdre, for being one of the people who loves to. And thank you for this beautiful necklace. I'm thrilled and honored to be partnering with you.

I love the lucky clover pin!
huffychic@gmail.com
oh geez.. that's not a good place to visit because now I want all of the items in the shop!!
but if I have to, my pick will be the Boucher Serpentine Bracelet, or the Three Strand Beaded Filigree Bib Necklace or the one in this giveaway.
yeah, this is tough one.
Ooh, I love the pins, too! My favorite is the white star brooch. It looks like a starfish!
Huge deco style rhinestone pin! Rhinestone star-shaped brooch! Rhinestone filigree bow brooch! I inherited a lot of old costume jewelry from my great grandma, so I started wearing brooches on my winter coats. It's such a fun way to cheer up the long, dreary winter.
Um, I love the gold bow pin. Emma would look abfab in it!
I am in love with the Kitschy Owl Necklace and think it would look amazing on Emma
love the Huge Deco Style Rhinestone Pin! i would rock it, but i could see it on emma, too.
mianpian@live.com
Trying not to drool...
This is a hard pick, but I love the turquoise bird pin--and it looks like something unique and just a little quirky that Emma would wear!
I agree with Nat. The Kitschy Owl Necklace would be great! I also love this:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/43449312/pearl-birdcage-necklace
I truly want one of everything, but I love, love, LOVE the square rhinestone necklace.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/42737972/square-rhinestone-necklace
The Lucky Clover Pin is so gorgeous, definitely my favourite! Would look so cute with a nice blouse, definitely a little something to liven up one of Emma's already fantastic outfits!
kv.pacey@gmail.com
White and Black Chunky Disco Necklace is absolutely stunning! I could wear that necklace both to a black tie party or just to a totally casual party!
I would choose the West German Green Stone Brooch for Emma. The color would definitely compliment her gorgeous hair, and it is an incredibly dainty and detailed piece. Very feminine = very Emma!
For myself, I would choose the German Yellow and Orange clear bib necklace. Perfect colors for all seasons, flattering "cascading" shape - I want!! AND similar theme to the necklace in the give away!
luvableoreo@gmail.com
I was going to say the Rectangle Amethyst Ring, but I decided to but it on the spot!
But I also love, love, love the Long Violet Pearl Necklace.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/46766363/beautiful-long-violet-pearl-flapper
The necklace is gorgeous! My favorite item from the shop is the violet pearl flapper necklace.
Everything is so cute! But my favourite would have to be the oversized teardrop pearl clip-on earrings. They're gorgeous. Very Audrey Hepburn.

ykyngdon@gmail.com
wow so much beauty on one site :)
i absolutely fell in love with the Kitschy Owl Necklace, its so elegant and beautiful and would suit emma beautifully, and the Funky, Fun 80s Style Clamper would go amazingly with it. but wow that necklace is exquisit. you are so lucky to have contacts like these :)
alloyd92@hotmail.co.uk
The Kitschy Owl Pendant is right up my alley! I might have to buy it for an early birthday gift... to myself :).
I love the white star brooche-- very lovely, indeed.
Oh, I love *this*! But in the shop, I especially love the Violet Pearl Flapper Necklace and Green Rhinestone Stretch Bracelet.
I like the kitchy owl necklace!
The Kitschy Owl Necklace stood out to me the most as something Emma would wear...and then it was also my own favorite thing in the shop!
the Kitschy Owl Necklace is SO cute!!
ashley_botica@yahoo.com
WOW!! every thing is beautiful!!
I think my favorites are the White and Black Chunky Disco Necklace and the Vintage Pearl Bib Necklace!!
I love Etsy for the same reasons you do :)
And what a great shop! I love the Rhinestone Filigree Bow Brooch!!
Caroline
juicy.couturegirl (at) yahoo (dot) com
Long time reader, first time commenter and WOW that shop is in my new favourites.
I think i'm going to have to buck the trend (though i can honestly see Emma in all of this!) and say the Gold Knot Pin, because can't you just see that working perfectly into a nautical-themed outfit, maybe with the Milly striped sweater? yeah, i thought you could. But i also think the necklace in this competition just SCREAMS Emma. in a polite way, of course. :)
I love the Elegant Turquoise Deco Bird pin - I love bird-themed accessories. Love the kitchy owl necklace for the same reason!
I love the bamboo circle pin!
I love the German Yellow and Orange clear bib necklace. I think it would be just perfect to wear to a summer barbeque!
West German green stone brooch, for sure. That color is gorgeous.
Ok, damn you for showing me this shop, 'cuz it is DANGEROUS.
I'm torn on the White Star Brooch and that adorable Kitschy Owl; I hope if anyone buys the owl before I can afford it, that it's Lou Eyrich for Emma's future outfits. ;D
Ah, I love it ALL! But I have really been wanting a snake bracelet like the Cleopatra one for awhile! :)
oh my....this is so difficult especially because every single piece in this shop is absolutely beautiful and very "Emma". I think the Pearl and Chain Link Bracelet would be an absolute staple piece in Emma's wardrobe because pearls are so classic and timeless.
I would also love to wear that bracelet myself :)
I love your support and enthusiasm for others!
There are definately many sweet things in her shop, the most stand out piece for me is the Pierced Rhinestone Heart Earrings. Very cute indeed!
I love so many pieces, but the giveaway necklace is by far my favorite! Perfectly lovely!
Holy cow, you aren't kidding! I think I did faint. Another piece I'm in love with... the Three Strand Beaded Filigree Bib Necklace. For Emma? The Oversize Gold Bow Brooch. No question! It's hers!
I love the hand painted horse head cufflinks and tie pin. I'm a rider and these would be perfect! They are in my shopping cart right now. I think Emma would wear the turquoise deco bird pin on a yellow sweater.
Pick one?!?! Lucky Clover Pin, German Yellow and Orange Clear Bib Necklace, and Beautiful Rhinestone Star Shaped Brooch are now in my Etsy favorites list!
I think I love the jade and pearl necklace most of all but tied for second are the square rhinestone necklace and the classic elegant oval pearl earrings.
Ohmygosh, all of the pieces are beautiful! This is my favorite that I could def. see Emma wear. http://www.etsy.com/listing/42390317/lucky-clover-pin In fact, it would look great with what she wore in the last epi!!
My personal favorite is the necklace you have for the giveaway! It is ABSOLUTELY gorgeous!!! I would wear it with my yellow sweater. Ek, I am coveting now....;)
I like the amethyst rhinestone floral brooch, but everything on there was so pretty!
That gold brooch is amazing!! defiantly my favourite!!
might have to put some extra spending money in my bank tomorrow!!;)
Oh... my... goodness... all the stuff in the store should be mine. :) I especially love the Kitschy Owl Necklace. It's so beautiful :0 and I think I should buy it... once I get some money... I also really love the Turquoise Deco Bird Pin. Again, maybe if I get some money... :)I would love to see the Bird pin on Emma.
Wow what an beautiful shop! That owl necklace is AMAZING!! Although I don't think Emma would wear that. I could see her in the Elegant Turquoise Deco Bird Pin, that would be so cute on a sweater or blouse. She would totally rock that pin just like she did the telephone one!
that was fun to browse!
my fave is the wild one - the german 3 strand yellow/orange necklace.
i think emma might wear the little birdcage one.
I love the pearl birdcage necklace, it's gorgeous!
Wow, these are all great! I love scouring fleas for vintage pieces, but I never find any that are in as nice condition as these! I particularly love the West German Green Stone Brooch ... I love the color. *swoon*
Oh gosh, hard to pick just one thing!! I love the kitschy owl necklace the most...and then the white star brooch (which might have to come home to me, hehe).
I had to struggle to narrow down my choices, but I think my very favorite is the Gold Knot Pin; it's just so perfectly, subtly nautical while still being quite a statement!
If I had to pick one it would be the long Violet Pearl Flapper Necklace. The pearls look nice with the beautiful accent beads. Love it!!
LOVE the white star brooch! It's gorgeous!
The necklace for this competition is my favorite -- where can we buy it since we can't all win it?! Sigh. I love that you could dress up it to be classy and elegant, or dress it down to be fun and flirty.
I really liked the Expandable Multi-Colored Bracelet. I felt like it had a story behind it... I imagined the carnival scene from "The Notebook." Date-worthy, hanging out with friends, wearing to work to make your outfit pop... So many uses!!
I am in love with the rhinestone bow brooch!(p.4)
-molly
I love the Oversize Gold Bow Brooch, and I'm currently on a bow kick.
:)
Oh, the Turquoise Wonder Cocktail Ring is GORGEOUS! If Emma doesn't wear it, I will!!
Oh, wow. Wow wow wow. Candy Shop Vintage is going to completely blow my budget for the month. I am absolutely in love with the long violet pearl flapper necklace! Love pearls, love enamel beads, so this is pretty much heaven.
GORGEOUS! My absolute favorite is the lion's head pin. Wouldn't that look stunning on Emma's blue drum major style sweater from Rhodes Not Taken?
I stared at it until I could stand it no longer and bought it for myself :). Candy Shop is a new favorite at my house.
This is such a fun site!!! I see Emma in this Gorgeous Green Give away,but
I want it!! So pretty! I just book marked CANDY SHOP....Beautiful stuff!!
I love all the white & gold braclets & the criss cross clamper. I could totally
see Emma rockin some bangles w/ a whimsical vintage cashmere sweater!
I love the Elegant Turquoise Deco Bird Pin and the white Star brooch. I could see emma wearing either of these,very vintage looking and cute!
I love the yellow and orange bib necklace--so bright and pretty, even if my pale skin can't pull off those colors.
This giveaway necklace is even more gorgeous!
oh gosh! I am in love with so many pieces, esp the interlocking circle pin!
I think Emma would totally rock the owl necklace on the first page. It's that perfect blend of adorable and slightly weird that she pulls off so well!
I really like the flapper necklace. So unique.
I love the
Three Strand Bead Filigree Bib Necklace
White Star Brooch
Kitschy Owl Necklace
All so very cute.
My favorite's the Oversize Gold Bow Brooch--so similar to what Emma wore!
I am in absolute LERVE with the Turquoise Wonder Cocktail Ring!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/37214449/turquoise-wonder-cocktail-ring
this was a hard one... but im absolutely in love with the Boucher Serpentine Bracelet. i know the description says "cleopatra on disco", but it made me think instantly of peacocks! :)
i really hope to win this one, it would travel all over france with me :D
Ooh, I loved that Violet Pearl flapper necklace, but somebody scooped it up already! I also like the Three Strand Beaded Filigree Bib Necklace.
How about the oversize pearl collar pin for Emma? A bit of a departure from her sweater clips...
Rebecca
What a fabulous giveaway! That necklace is stunning!
Everything is so beautiful! I adore the brooches...my favorite is definitely the Lucky Clover Pin!
The Hand Painted Horse Head Cufflinks and Tie Tack is my favorite!! www.justafewofemilysfavoritethings.blogspot.com
I love the huge deco rhinestone pin! Gosh, she has great stuff!
I love this necklace!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/43449312/pearl-birdcage-necklace
All of the stuff in there is really lovely though, and all of it would look great on Emma. The featured necklace is absolutely to die for!
What a cute shop! So many adorable items it was hard to pick. My favorite would have to be the large rhinestone egg necklace. So lovely!
I'm loving the natural pearl drop earrings! But my all time favorite is still the bow brooch you featured.
Oh dear, so many amazing jewels to choose from, but I gotta go with the bow brooch. In fact *want* for my own self!
i am absolutely drooling over that necklace. and the oversize gold bow brooch is just sheer perfection!
what a fun giveaway!
How gorgeous!
I love the Boucher Serpentine Bracelet! And the bow brooch! And the bamboo brooch! So many pretty things!
Love love love the Pearl Birdcage Necklace!! http://www.etsy.com/listing/43449312/pearl-birdcage-necklace
oh my gosh! i want everything in that shop so much, it actually gave me heart palpitations. it's a tight race, but i think my favorite is the kitschy owl necklace.
I LOVE the kitschy owl necklace for sure. I'm all about fun animal pieces right now, especially owls.
Everything is so beautiful. The green West German broach is my favorite though.
I love the duck pin:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/45470434/elegant-turquoise-deco-bird-pin
and the serpentine bracelet:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/33572006/boucher-serpentine-bracelet
Love your blog and the shop (I'm emailing the link to my husband, wink wink!)
I think Emma would wear the black and white chunky necklace!
I literally cant choose because they are all so amazing!!!!!! I think that emma would look amazing in the owl or the chunky b/w necklace, but i sure would look great in this one!
So much to choose from, but I loved the white star brooch!
I adore the pearl birdcage necklace...so unique.
But Emma would wear that or the Filigree Bow Brooch for sure!
I am in love with the Pastel and Gold Pearlized Leaf Bracelet. Emma would look fab in the Oversize Gold Bow Brooch.
I am sooooo totally in love with Pearl Birdcage Necklace and the Amethyst Rhinestone Flower Brooch.
I think Emma would looko amazing in the Three Strand Beaded Filigree Bib Neckleace too!!
My favorite piece is actually the necklace in the giveaway, haha. I also really like the Beautiful Vintage Pearl Bib Necklace and the Lucky Clover Pin (I could totally see Emma wearing this pin; especially with the monochromatic greens).
oooh that's a lovely necklace.
I'm a sucker for a bow, so I love the oversized bow, the rhinestone filigree brooch and also the Owl necklace.
All of these would also look fab on Emma.
German Yellow and Orange clear bib necklace! It is STUNNING! Roll on, payday =)
i think emma might pull off those rhinestone heart earrings, showing her glamorous & girly side, with a bit of flirty fun thrown in for good measure.
for me..the same piece. emma's looks continue to inspire my work looks every day!
I don't know where to begin! I really love the kitschy owl necklace (without sounding redundant) and the turquoise wonder coctkail ring. And the expandable multicolor bracelet. And the pearl birdcage necklace. It's hard to just pick one! I can see Emma wearing everything listed on this site, because she can pull off things that some people cannot. I would love to see her in any of the above as my top choices.
Thanks for the chance, and what a great site! Good luck everyone!
Oh, I agree, Emma would LOVE Charleston! It's one of my favorite cities!
I love the Kitschy Owl Necklace and the Turquoise Wonder Cocktail Ring. What a great Etsy shop!
What a great giveaway! I love the Pearl and Chain Link Bracelet...so pretty!
I love love love the Lucky Clover Pin or the White Star Brooch. Emma's needs more brooches - she pulls them off so well!
Thanks for the opportunity! And thanks for sharing this etsy shop with us - I love it!
What a cute site! I'm loving the black beaded flapper necklace, along with pretty much every brooch!
I love the necklace that she's giving away, but the Pearl Bib Necklace is very pretty too. Thanks for another great store!
Love the store! A personal favorite from a quick look through would be the triple strand filigree bib necklace. Very delicate yet still a statement piece
Oh I really love the black and white disco necklace!
I love the necklace you are giving away! It is such a pretty mix of classic and color. I LOVE pearls!
meinmillions@gmail.com
Can I just have it all? No? Well then my favourite is the large rhinestone egg necklace because it's just super fab.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/43372959/large-rhinestone-egg-necklace
LOVING that owl necklace!!!
What a great shop! thanks for introducing us! i love the boucher serpentine bracelet. so perfect for the summer and fall!

Danielle,
This was the best homework assignment ever. I will get no work done again today. thx.
First off: Pins
I am never without a pin, usually a flowery old lady brooch, but I have been branching out lately. Telephone, anyone?
TURQUOISE BIRD PIN. Turquoise sends me to my a happy place filled with rainbows and kittens.
Filigree Bow Brooch. I fear I would never take this off and would become like Little Edie and attach it to the top of my head with a fabulous Hermes scarf. If I had a Hermes scarf.
Next up: Bracelets. I adore bracelets but never wear them due to my abnormally small wrists. Srsly, I have the wrist circumference of a 6 year old little girl.
All to die for: Filigree & Pearl Bracelet/White Cabochan (which I love to say because it makes me feel fancy)/Boucher Serpentine Bracelet/Lucite Cream bangle
Rings:
Turquoise Wonder Cocktail Ring. Srsly. Turquoise AND cocktail inspiring? Who doesn't love a good cocktail ring? Anything that encourages a delicious cocktail (preferably made with Pearl Plum Vodka and lemonade) is good in my book.
And finally Necklaces:
B & W Disco Necklace. Divine.
German Yellow & Orange Bib necklace. I am sucker for sparkles.
KITSCHY OWL!!! KITSCHY OWL!!! NEED IT. WANT IT. INNER EMMA SAYS SO.
love the pearl birdcage necklace:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/43449312/pearl-birdcage-necklace
I love love love the owl necklace! I think it would be so nice over a plain top, would really dress it up!
My favorite is the bird brooch (I love birds and brooches- perfect!). What I would love to see on Emma is the large orange and yellow necklace. I would also love to see that on me. I think I need to go back...
This Rhinestone Filigree Bow Brooch is soooo adorable!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/37015311/rhinestone-filigree-bow-brooch
Thanks for the link to this shop it's great :)
I love love LOVE the pearl earrings! http://www.etsy.com/listing/38533501/large-natural-pearl-earrings
I want everything in that shop!!
Gorgeous necklace, very Emma. And you're right, this etsy shop is a gold mine for Emma-esque pieces. Three of my favorites are the White Cabachon Bracelet, Elegant Turquoise Deco Bird Pin, and Turquoise Wonder Cocktail Ring. Great prices for vintage jewelry too!
OK, now I will be obsessively shopping here. My favorites are the German Yellow & Orange Clear Bib Necklace and the Boucher Serpentine Bracelet. These pieces will now haunt my dreams!
I think if I had to pick just two (because, obviously, one is not enough) it would be the Rhinestone Filigree Bow Brooch and the Cleopatra Snake Bracelet.
I don't particularly think that bracelet is very Emma, but I love it.
I really like the Pearl Birdcage necklace (and no, not because of Miley Cyrus's new video :P ) and if I were't going to see Glee Live next week in Chi-Town (ie, shopping in Chicago), I'd probably be wiping out the visa ;)
as for one I think Emma would sport...I'd like to see her in the oversized gold bow broach. I love emma in bows <3 !!
Wow, this shop is amazing! First off, this necklace in the giveaway is spectacular. I agree with everyone, very tough to decide. But I was immediately drawn to the Classic Elegant Oval Pearl Earrings. I wore some very similar in my wedding (many, many years ago) but they were clips and cheap at that. I've always loved that clean, classic look. I think I may just need to treat myself to some new earrings...
Good luck to everyone (though I do really hope to win! :) )
I love the turquoise wonder cocktail ring!!! kimbers@gmail.com
Three Strand Beaded Filigree Bib Necklace
Its Awesome!! Too bad I just don't have that kind of money right now. Thanks for pointing out her jewelry. I will have to flag her site.
I am SUCH an etsy fan...I'm seriously considering getting my wedding dress there, I did all my christmas shopping on etsy and I am constantly trying to convert people to its use. I mean, it's usually not ridiculously expensive, the alchemy feature is GREAT, and for a fraction more than you'd spend at Target, you can get something unique.
Anyway.
I loved all the bracelets, especially the expandable ones from Candy Shop Vintage, but I could see Emma wearing the Gumball Blue Enamel necklace. With a super cute cardigan.
-Morgan
The Gumball Blue Enamel and Gold Necklace would be perfect!!!
rhinestone filigree bow brooch! Think about all the headbands and sweaters you could stick that on! gorgeous! new favorite etsy site - i'm sure they'll be getting some orders from me in the future!
Love, love, love the Three Strand Beaded Filigree Bib Necklace!
Wow! What a beautiful selection!
For myself, I like this the best: http://www.etsy.com/listing/46533754/black-and-gold-highly-detailed-woven?show_panel=true

I love the Beautiful Vintage Pearl Bib Necklace!!
I love the Kitschy Owl Necklace!
I like the pastel and gold pearlize leaf bracelet.
kvg323@gmail.com
There is a reason I will not go on that site!! That necklace is enough to make any emma fan to go insane!! <3 BEAUTIFUL <3333333
I loove the classic elegant oval pearl earrings, the long gold flapper-style necklace (who doesn't love a little 1920s in their life?), black beaded flapper necklace, the red and gold Asian cuff links...I'm definitely smitten with this store now!
(bjacqueline@socal.rr.com)
Wow! Everything is so drool worthy. I totally love, love, love the turquoise deco bird pin.

I love this filigree necklace, and the Kitschy Owl necklace is cute too!
Everything's so pretty! I especially love the lucky clover pin. It would look lovely on a coat.
Annie XX
I love the look of that gold knot pin. Emma would look great in a nautical inspired ensemble, brooch included! Everything is so pretty in this shop.
Valerie
vthomas4@gmu.edu
Ooooo, like so many others here, I absolutely adore the Kitschy Owl pendant. It is so adorable! Thanks for introducing this shop, although I don't think my bank account thanks you!
I love the three strand pearl necklace, by far, though there were so many wonderful pieces. Thank you for tipping me off to this etsy user - I love the site and am always on the lookout for new, awesome vintage pieces!
I love the white and black chunky disco necklace. Everything in the shop is beautiful!!!
oct02@oppcatv.com
Can I say all of them? Haha... the items I loved the most (!) were the three stranded beaded filigree necklace and the Beautiful Huge Pearl Cluster earings. :) lmesselstrom@hotmail.com
Oh gosh I LOVE the Elegant Oval Pearl earrings so much, but I think the Expandable Multicolor Bracelet is SO something Emma would wear, with an orange cardigan, ruffled white shirt, and melon skirt. Also a sweater guard.
soloensemble@gmail.com
The Pastel and Gold Pearlized Leaf Bracelet is to DIE for!
ecsmith310@gmail.com
great collection-- i think the mod gold ridge cuff bracelet matches my personal style best, but i love this necklace, too!!
-liz
I like the Three Strand Beaded Filigree Bib Necklace. Such a statement!
I looove the 'square rhinestone necklace'--amazing!!
Ooh, I LOVE the Kitschy Owl Pendant. Not quite sure I could pull it off, though...
Picking a favorite is torture for sure. There are too many lovelies in the store. I really love the rhinestone filigree bow brooch and the German yellow and orange clear bib necklace.
I am loving the white cabachon bracelet and am currently trying to figure out how I can justify purchasing it on a very, very negative shopping budget...
The Gold Twist Detail Cuff is fabulous--chic and sophisticated, but loud enough to make a statement!
juliec@princeton.edu
Wow! Everything is so BEAUTIFUL! I really love the Huge Pearl Cluster Earrings and like many of the other readers I also love the Oversized Gold Bow Brooch and the Kitschy Owl Necklace! Each piece is so unique...I'm tempted to buy them all!
hinklejulia@gmail.com
I LOVE "Beautiful HUGE Pearl Cluster Earrings" and "Rhinestone Filigree Bow Brooch"! What an amazing store!
I hope this giveaway is open world wide!
PS I totally drooled while looking at the website! :)
Contact info: dilarayuksel@yahoo.com
I am in love with everything on this site! Deirdre, you have amazing taste!
So picking one...hmm...
I think Emma would love the Interlocking Circles Rhinestone Brooch!
While I am very much in love with the Red Asian Cufflinks, the Cleopatra Snake Bracelet, and the Square Rhinestone Necklace, and would like to marry them all in a Big Love-style arrangement.
wow! what a great shops she has! i love the Pierced Rhinestone Heart Earrings. i think emma would approve!
boon1211 at gmail dot com
I really like the Pearl Bib Necklace, it just makes me want to Breakfast at Tiffany's.
These are my favorite: Classic Elegant Oval Pearl Earrings. Thank you for introducing me to this wonderful store! What a great giveaway!
I had a very difficult time deciding, particularly between three different items.. but I'd have to say my favorite is the Kitschy Owl Necklace. LOVE. And Ms. Pillsbury could obviously pull it off like no other. Great shop.
I like the vintage pearl bib necklace. great shop

Thank you to everyone for giving such wonderful feedback on my Etsy shop! I wish I could give something away to each of you!! Hunting for and collecting just the right vintage pieces is a huge passion of mine and I love to be able to share it with an appreciative audience. I am really, really flattered by all the kind words and can't wait to send the necklace to the final winner!
Oh my goodness! I think I want everything in the shop!
But, I think I'm totally loving the Rhinestone Filigree Bow Brooch.
lahoorah at gmail dot com
DYING over the Turquoise Wonder cocktail ring!!
I love everything in this shop! It is all so beautiful.
My absolute favorite is the Kitschy Owl Necklace...so adorable!
LOVE the Kitschy Owl Necklace!
Also, the Oversize Bow Brooch, because I couldn't pick just ONE. :)
I love the white and black chunky disco necklace, and I really love the necklace in this giveaway!
What gorgeous stuff!
I love the oversized bow brooch, and the simplicity of the long, gold flapper style necklace.
It's all beautiful!
I've spent far, far, FAR too much time perusing Candy Shop Vintage, but I can't help it: not only are the pieces themselves lovely, the photographs are styled to the point where they are works of art in their own right.
For myself, my personal favorite piece is the Beautiful Vintage Pearl Bib Necklace. It looks exactly like a pearl necklace that was my grandmother's and has now found a home in my jewelry box, alongside many of her other treasures. Even though it's a "fabulous fake," I paid the ridiculous price to have it restrung when it broke because I couldn't bear to let it go. One of your posts a few weeks ago was about grandmothers' jewelry, and it struck such a chord with me: my grandma was from the grand era of "ensembles," where you had a coat, shoes, purse, and jewelry for every outfit in your closet. Now, when I wear her jewelry, it makes me feel a little bit like my fabulously attired grandmother and a little less like a Stuffy Businesswoman. I'm wearing the necklace today!
For Emma, I love the Oversize Gold Bow Brooch (I should also mention that I love it myself!). But when they reprise my personal favorite Glee moment ever (The Rhodes Not Taken, the shot of Emma watching the performance of "Somebody to Love" where she puts her hand over her heart!), I hope that this brooch is front and center on a sheath dress. It's perfect for her!
I love the Kitschy Owl Necklace! It's so cute.
