Giveaway: $50 Gift Certificate to Ruche- CLOSED

Ruche hardly needs an introduction. I feel like I've been singing this shop's praises since I began this blog. If you aren't familiar with this vintage inspired boutique, I encourage you to click over there right now and peruse the selection of indie clothing, accessories (many of which are handmade) and items for the home and office. Besides have a great selection of affordable pretties, Ruche also has some of the best look books around. I've purchased many items from this shop and I've never been disappointed.
This week, Ruche is offering one D&OC reader a $50 gift certificate.  As you can see, I've put together a little collage of some of my favorite items, all of which happen to be under $50. 
This giveaway is open to all readers and the winner will be chosen and announced next Wednesday, May 4th.
Entering is simple. Simply leave a comment after visiting Ruche and tell me what you like. If you'd like to increase your chances of winning, you can Tweet, FB, or blog about the giveaway and send me the link in a separate comment. Are you a subscribed reader to D&OC? Awesome (if not, what are waiting for?) You get a third bonus comment. Simply say, "I'm a follower!" (3 entries total)
Good luck! xo
update-

The winner of the $50 Ruche Gift Certificate is #148, Meesh! Thanks for your participation and thanks to Ruche for the giveaway!
