    Wowwww,what an awesome giveaway :)

    And the bracelet is such a classic and its gorgeous!

    Fingers crossed on this one. What makes me unique ? I guess I feel I’m special and that whatever experiences I have in life,which my close friends don’t get to go through that. In turn,makes me know that I’ve got through that to share my views with people who have gotten into a rough patch.
    And I help them get through that time.

    Friends have said I’m a great encourager and person to go to for advice. Maybe its my calling <3

    ps.you’ve asked how tall am I. I’m not super tall,just 165cm.

    Oh gosh….what makes me unique? I suppose its my interest in vintage…and my willingness to wear lots of different colors and extremely old fashioned hair styles and clothes sometimes. The bracelet is beautiful, what a great give-away!:) I hope everything worked out well at your house.

    Love the bracelet!

    What’s unique about me: Apart from the fact that my name (Apurva) means ‘unique’ or ‘special’ in Hindi(national language of India) =P …. I believe that we are who we are because of the choices that we make – almost nothing is pre-defined so everything we do, everything we are, is because of the choices we make. Right now, I really like this bracelet and would love to have it, so i made the choice to write a comment haha!
    Thanks,
    Apurva

    What makes me as unique as an individual snowflake:

    A) I can chug beer like a man.
    B) Nothing I own in my closet costs more than USD50.
    C) My sense of humour is crude, sarcastic and blasphemous to the point of soul-condemned-to-burn-in-hell-for-eternity.
    D) As opposed to most … ‘vintage fashionistas’, I do buy my second hand clothes from proper thrift stores (one dress = AUD4) and not expensive vintage stores that charge you 4000% more than the original price they got it at some Salvos or something.
    E) I’m chubby, and loving it.

    If you need any more points, let me know. :)

    What a beautiful bracelet! I would love to win this!

    What makes me unique is actually very relevant to the prize being given away:

    I have unusually tiny wrists.
    - So small that I can only wear adjustable bracelets, such as this one. :) (not kidding)
    (bangles, as much as I adore them, are out of the question for me).

    I only own one bracelet (because of my unusually tiny wrists) which is one that my sister custom made for me when I was 16.

    Awesome giveaway!

    Now, on to what makes ME unique? I’ve got freakishly flexible double-jointed wrists, which means I can twist my hands and wrists into all sorts of ridiculous positions, and even 360 degrees around the other way. It’s a great party trick (some people tend to gag after seeing that).

    Sooo…if I do win the giveaway, I believe the bracelet would look great on my wrist the next time I pull out this party trick!

    Wow! That is such a pretty bracelet! Pick me pick me pick me!

    I believe that women can be glamourous all the time. Whether I’m up to my armpits in poopy nappies at home or staggering around 7 months pregnant or after a non-stop 30 hour shift, it makes me feel good when I know that I still look HAWT. I guess it makes me unique, that I can be bothered to look after my appearance and embrace my womanly beauty, even if I know that the only person who is going to see me is my 20month old baby.

    this piece is fabulous!
    Im a girl that has everything rolled into one.
    hightlight: having weird and quirky body language and plain jane fashion sense, i guess this makes me stands out in my group of friends.

    The thing that makes me unique is that half my family is Chinese and half is american, both of my sisters were adopted from china as babies.
    Ps. I didn’t get to comment on it but your Halloween looks super fun, love miss blow up doll-so funny!

    Some people know exactly why they’re unique, while some are still searching for a reason other than wat others may have already stated. But I think God has made us all unique in our own special way. Be it our character, interests, physical appearances or even the way we talk. And perhaps a lot of times we don’t even know we’re special in that way :)

    So what makes me unique? I’m not too sure to be honest, hoping someone will tell me some day.

    I am unique in the fact that I have the worst singing voice on the planet ( think nails on a chalk board) and yet my kids still love to sing along with me in the car.

    I am unique in the fact that I am a horrible cook, (ex. once at a friends house the smoke detector went off and my son said “is dinner ready?”)…but my family still eats dinner every night with a smile and thanks.

    I dont think that anyone is really ever unique as we get inspired by so many different ideas, people and places and most of the time this happens without us even realising it. Its not a bad thing; its almost like a progression of a map showing us how we have changed or grown. xx

    i like to wear colours that completely and devastatingly clash. i don’t know if that makes me unique; i just know that my friends always have something to say about it!

    I have a geographic tongue. It has deep cuts throughout that make eating overly salty, sour or sweet foods hard!
    Plus I dont eat any fruit or vegetables……unless fried….

    Hello!!! Really enjoy reading your entries and the wonderful photos and escapades that you embark on! Am loving the giveaway in this entry too!

    What makes me unique/sets me apart : I eat my kfc chicken with just 3 fingers on my right hand! With the left hand all clean to tear apart chilli packets! A habit I cultivated since young. =)

    That being said, everyone of us is unique, because there can only be 1 “me” in this little circle mass we call earth.

    I enjoy haikus
    Syllables form magically* –
    Give me the bracelet**

    *With my accent, I pronounce “magically” as three syllables
    **With my accent, I pronounce “bracelet” as two syllables

    In non-haiku form:

    I really like writing haikus, and I think I have a special knack for making them on the spot. Sometimes I wish I was less good at haikus and more good at rhymes, though. I would win rap contests and be a famous rapper, but alas — my true calling is the haiku.

    I think what makes me unique is that I’m willing to fail as long as I give it all a try.

    I don’t know any other 21-year old who has secret crushes on men with grey hair, and my interests make me seem like I was born in the ’50s :P I feel like there’s a reverse generation gap and I get along better with people in my parents’ generation than people in my own. I love hearing their stories, and immersing myself in the past fascinates me. I think my experiences in life set me apart the most– I grew up traveling around the world and the friends I’ve acquired over the years are so diverse and different from one another that I can’t imagine them ever being in a room and getting along sometimes! Also, the people I love make me feel incredibly special, unique, appreciated and blessed :)

    i guess its my weird understanding for why people are who they are. i have met many people with many personalities, sometimes its difficult to get along with them so i put myself in their shoes, try to see things from their perspective & understand how their mind works. its successful most of the time & because of this, i am seldom angry at people. it makes me very happy person.

    Well.. I guess it is how I really like to play dress up at home. I’ll just try on clothes for no reason and try to make them look interesting. I’m rather addicted to it. I even play dress-up games online sometimes when I’m free, but not often now. And to top it off, I dress up when the occasion doesn’t call for it, like heading to the supermarket or just some friend’s house.

    I think what I still find unique about myself is because of this little indent at my neck – collar bone area. I never exactly knew how it came about, it’s like this small little hole that’s indented in the skin. I suspected it was most probably because when I was still a newborn baby, the equipments in the doctor’s hands accidentally gave it a press on my skin – which also resulted in an accident in my mum’s large intestines. Well, too much of a story said up there, but I always felt that was very special. People like to ask me “What’s that?” and I’d proudly say “My diamond”. It’s situated in a spot whereby it really looks like it’s a diamond necklace, just missing out on the string/ chain, well which is why I always prefer long necklaces that will not cover it. Now that I’ve got my own ‘diamond’, my arms are always empty so that’s where I like accessories for the arms, bangles, bracelets, what nots. I’ve always been buying those cute colourful accessories in the past, but nowadays I thought I should add on something more unique and matured instead! Well that’s basically it about myself :>

    i am unique because there is definitely no other me in this whole entire earth. it does not matter that i have long hair that may be cut in the same way as some other or many others in the world; it does not matter if there exists some person that looks 99.99999% like me because, i am the 100%; it does not matter if i cook/bake the same things the same way as you because our love put in are for different people; it does not matter if i like the smell of rainy days and the tapping of keyboards like the other 5 million people who do because i smell it different and hear it different. i am me because i am not you.

    thank you for the lovely giveaway:)

    I love to read your blog. Its interesting. Me being in the finance line hardly meet anyone interesting. Marrying my husband is the most wonderful thing. I get to know a lot of friends from the creative line. What makes me unique is I have unique friends :)

    OH! I hope I’m not too late for this.

    I have a teeny mole just under and to the right of my bottom lip. The number of times people have said to me, “Hey. You have a bit of chocolate under your lip,” and then laughed when they realised its a mole is pretty priceless.

    :D I’ve been stalking your blog for ages but hurrrah first comment!

    I’m unique because I am me alone and while I might try to be someone else at times, there is something that essentially and fundamentally belongs to me that no one can take away from me. :)

    Wow that’s a really pretty bracelet which I would love to own! :)

    What makes me unique? Hmm….I have a fetish for rings and I can’t leave the house without wearing one, it makes me feel odd, like something bad is going to happen to me. Up till now, I’ve collected more than 30 rings! I’m also really good at remembering faces. Once I’ve seen a person on the streets, the appearance of the person would be registered into my mind and if I bump into he/she many years later, I can still remember where I’ve seen that person before. However, I am not very good at following instructions. I have that problem where if someone said go right, I went left. This is just a curse I have been born with.

    I have a special talent for finding my way throught cities when travelling. I´m good at remembering places and how to get there, even many years later, and understanding how to get from A to B even though I haven´t been there before… Quite strange, considering the fact that both my parents are utterly lost when we´re travelling :) I´m also good at finding out what animal people look like. Myself, I´m an otter.

    I’m only 4’11″. My eyes change colors from blue/gray to green depending on what I wear. I have a birthmark on my forehead that only shows when I’m sick or when I’m mad. I can drum my toes :)
