It, wedding dresses, seems like you girls like gold + pearl jewelry as much as I do, which is awesome for our contest sponsor, Erin McDermott, (because, let’s be honest: she’s pretty awesome) but bad for me since I was hoping to steal some of these pieces myself.

Anyway.  If you were buzzing around the blog last week, you probably saw that Erin was giving away two pairs of earrings, the Whitney and the Lucky Penny).  Our lovely SW brides-to-be wrote in to tell us which of Erin’s many gorgeous pieces would best convey her unique style, and we’re happy to report that the winners are in!  These lucky ladies were hand-picked by Erin herself.

Of course, it’s only appropriate that the Whitney earrings be gifted to their namesake, Whitney, who wrote:

"I la la la looooove the "Whitney" earrings! Long Sleeve Mother Dresses, When I first saw them in the pos,t I said "Omg! Wow!"  When I visited Erin’s site, I realized they were named after me!  How more my style can they be? It's as if they were created for me. It would be a great gift for my bridesmaids to wear in my wedding! And I'm not going to a lie: I will definitely have to get myself a pair. They are perfect because you can dress them up for a night out or a wedding, or dress them down with a fabulous pair of jeans. I love things that are versatile and classic... the definition of my style!"

And like Erin herself, the winner of the Lucky Penny earrings will be getting married at a Vineyard in our home state of Virginia.  Congratulations, Annie!

"My wedding is going to be held at a rustic vineyard in the countryside of Virginia.  My mother is sewing my dress and my engagement ring was my great-grandmother's.  While I consider myself a modern and fashionable young woman, the traditional and rustic ties that these elements will bring to my wedding are very me as well.  Erin McDermott's jewelry is gorgeous and unique!"
