The Andean Collection Giveaway + a Flash Sale

Happy Thursday, y'all! So excited to be able to bring you a giveaway today!  

The Andean Collection is a really cool jewelry company that I first heard about reading Real Simple. They make beautiful, natural pieces that are also sustainable - they help impoverished communities in South America and use fair trade principles.

They're graciously giving one (1) lucky NYC Recessionista reader a Floresta Necklace in Midnight Teal -- one of my favorite pieces on the site!  This necklace normally retails for $72 but you have the chance to snag one for free!



Okay, so here are the rules:


  • To enter, you must leave a comment below telling me what you would wear this gorgeous necklace with and why. 
  • For a second entry, 'like' BOTH NYC Recessionista and The Andean Collection on Facebook, and leave a separate comment here letting me know that you did or already do.
  • For a third entry, follow @NYRecessionista on Twitter, and leave a separate comment here letting me know that you did or already do.
  • For a fourth entry, tweet about the giveaway (linking to this post!) encouraging your followers to enter (including my handle @NYRecessionista in the tweet), and leave a separate comment here with the URL to your tweet.
  • For a fifth entry, write a blog post about the giveaway (linking to this post!) encouraging your readers to enter, and leave a separate comment here with the URL to your blog post.

I'll be accepting entries from now until Sunday, August 5th at 11:59 p.m. EST and will choose a winner at random, which will be announced early next week.


Good luck, everyone!

PS - they are also having a Flash Sale Friday through Monday, so be sure to check out their other pieces and support this do-gooding brand!

Beautiful necklace! I would wear it with a white dress that I just got because it would set off the color really well.

The color and shape of the necklace are beautiful! I would wear it with a coral top, because it would go really well with the color and neckline of the top! Thanks for the chance to enter the giveaway!

I just got this cute white summer dress that this would work as the perfect pop of color for!

I would wear it with a gray top I have that has very subtle blue, lime and fuschia accents. I think the color of the necklace would bring out the blue in the top.

I would love to wear this with what I'm wearing now, actually! It's a very light white boyfriend shirt. This necklace would pop against the white shirt my superwhite skin!
