Giveaway: $100 to Wallflower Vintage- Closed

Wallflower Vintage is well seasoned in the art of selling vintage clothing.  They've been in the business since 1982 and their selection is authentic and HUGE - two important qualities if you're a vintage shopper.  Lucky for us, Wallflower Vintage is offering one D&OC reader a $100 gift certificate good for any item(s) in the shop!
My favorites include this Preppy plaid sheath dress, poppy red overcoat, and this Sweet George mini dress. Besides clothing, Wallflower Vintage also offers an awesome collection of vintage aprons (love these), linens,  and bedspreads.  No doubt, there is a little something for everyone.

How to enter? (up to 3 entries, open to all readers)
1.  Visit the shop and leave a comment telling me your favorite item.  This is mandatory to qualify.
2.  If you are a subscriber to D&OC, either through Google friend connect or through the feed, then you get a second entry for being awesome!  Simply leave a comment saying, "I'm a reader."
3.  Share this giveaway on Twitter, Facebook, or on your own blog and let me know you did.  Make sure to leave a separate comment for each entry.

Winner will be picked next Wednesday 10/20.  Thanks for participating and good luck.
Update: the winner is #25, Danielle! 
Bonus:  Receive 10% off your entire order with code "downout" through Oct. 31st.
