Sweet Mildred

It’s finally time! The prizes have arrived and I’m ready to start the 2015 Petticoats for Philanthropy charity event benefiting the Make-A-Wish Foundation!

Make-A-Wish is a charity that has always been close to my heart. When I was doing my college program at Walt Disney World I met countless children having the time of their lives with their families thanks to Make-A-Wish. One little girl in particular stands out to me, a ten-year-old girl who was in remission. When I complimented her cute pixie cut she told me that her hair was just growing back but she was thinking about leaving it short and I told her it was a great idea. She was looking at the Glow toys I was selling and decided that she wanted the most simple and inexpensive toy on the cart, a small wand that lit up and blinked in different colors which I gave her as a free gift. It was such a small thing but her face lit up and she was so thankful. When I asked her who her favorite character was she said it was Elsa and that she had an Elsa dress that she decided not to wear that day because she wanted to wear her Make-A-Wish shirt with her family. I told her that if she had been wearing her Elsa dress maybe she could have used her ice powers to cool down the hot day and she promised me that the next time she wore it she would practice for her next visit. Making kids like her smile was one my favorite things about working at Disney and made me even more enthusiastic to raise money for Make-A-Wish. On average, Make-A-Wish grants the wish of a child diagnosed with a life-threatening illness every 38 minutes in the United States and I want to help as much as possible to make sure even more children can have their wishes come true.

How can I help?

Visit wish.org and donate any amount of money $5 (USD) and over. For every $5 donated you will be entered into a drawing for one of the prizes above. Just follow these steps!

The Prizes:

There are three prize packages, each one based on one of the three Lolita Tips mascots and their corresponding styles.

Set A: Gwendolen, the Gothic Lolita

Set B: Lettie, the Sweet Lolita

Set C: Celeste, the Classic Lolita

Disclaimers and stuff

This is a game of chance. There will be one winner for each prize set and the winners will be chosen by random.org. This event has nothing to do with tumblr and will not technically be held on tumblr, it will all happen via email. Reblogging, liking, and following will not increase your chances of winning the game and you do not require a tumblr account to participate.

Special thanks to…

With the last event we were able to raise over $1500 and this year since I have twice as many followers I would like to raise twice as much money! The event deadline will be Saturday, January 16th. I’m very excited about this event and hope that we’re able to raise a lot of money for this great cause!

I’m having a mother-daughter day with my mama since my father is out of town and there have been lots of stressful family events recently. We’re going to see Cinderella and going shopping, so I thought wearing Disney princess themed outfit would be appropriate!~ <3 Shoes & Stockings~ Bodyline Tee~ Torrid Skirt~ Sweet Mildred Frozen bracelet~ Claire’s Necklace~ repurposed keychain from Disneyworld Everything else~ offbrand/etsy/Storenvy/etc.
