Giveaway—Enter to Win $200 in Shoes & Ice Cream From Famous Footwear!
August 23, 2009 by Jyl Johnson Pattee · 638 Comments
Did you know that two things most all women share is their love of shoes and ice cream? Famous Footwear blends these two ingredients together on its site Make Today Unexpected, which gives us women the chance to discover our style and flavor in a most unexpected way.
I just went there, took a short quiz, and found out my personal ice cream flavor is “Double Bubble Sorbet,” which means that I have the following ingredients: “tons of fun, a few rays of sunshine, a little bliss, some flirtatiousness, vivacity, brightness, and spunk.” Who knew? LOL!
I can’t wait to hear what your flavor is when you enter this stylish, not to mention FABULOUS, giveaway!
