a bit 'silly' giveaway...((gala day five))

day five...ALREADY!?! this week has seemingly flew on by!! and each day has brought some new faces to my blog. it gets me excited to see you all coming back too! i'm almost bummed that i only have today's giveaway, and one more tomorrow left... and remember all giveaways will end on APRIL 12th. so be sure to enter the other giveaways if you haven't already.

and onto today's giveaway.

last year for my birthday i got a nikon d90. and almost a year later i don't think i know any more than i did about it than last year...i think i need a private lesson or something...ANYWAYS...i loved seeing all the slip covers for the straps out there. and knew i needed to find one for my camera. i mean...a black boring nikon strap? come on. i wanted something FUN! or maybe silly?

silly is a play on words..because i found Silly Jilly Boutique on etsy. all of their straps are beautiful. funky. and really not silly at all! i asked if they'd be willing to send me a strap to review...and they were so willing!! i said i didn't care what i got...this is what i got:: ((and i already had the strap on my camera, and didn't feel like taking it off...so that's why the picture is the way it is))

i absolutely LOVE IT!! ""the camera straps are out of the highest quality cotton fabrics. and they are lined for the ultimate in comfort and style"" and i must say the strap is highly comfy and super stylish. they offer a ton of other cute patterns too::

i just love the variety of patterns. and i have more on my list of ones to get! i really just should learn how to sew...but then no one would make money off of me!

silly jilly also offers up lens cozies...cute matching 'bags' for your lenses. how fun!! now if i only had more lenses! ((which this is way off topic...but does anyone have any reccomendations on a good extra lens for the d90? i'm trying to find one!))

so guess what!?! i KNOW you want one of these, right?! or maybe you know someone with a DSLR that this would be a great gift for! well...

one of you get to pick ONE CAMERA STRAP COVER out!!

((my tip...hmmm...i guess i really try to shoot without a flash. but most people tell you that. and i guess try taking shoots from different angles, not always centered. those are usually my most favorite pictures! and i'm no where near a professional...or semi-professional...i just love to take pictures!))
