WishWishWish Is Six + Huge Giveaway!
Happy Birthday, Blog!
Woah! Six years! I can’t believe I’ve collected six years worth of memories here on WishWishWish, and what I’ve been able to achieve as a result.
Starting my blog as a bit of a geeky 17-year-old who liked to make websites and collages in Photoshop, I transitioned from sharing my life on Livejournal (put your hands up if you were there too!) to creating WishWishWish in 2008. I read as many blogs as I could find (mostly Swedish, hej!) and took outfit pictures in my messy bedroom as I stared at the floor.
Six years later and it’s my own business. I’ve travelled and worked with brands that I admire from across the globe – something 17-year-old me would never ever have anticipated. And it’s totally all thanks to you guys! I’m so so grateful that you visit – whether you’ve been following my journey for years or have just arrived, I read every single comment and appreciate every one of you!
SO! To say thanks to you lovely lot for sticking by me for six years, I’ve collected together six birthday packages, each of them relating to a category on WishWishWish – Beauty, Fashion, Food, London, Travel & Photography, and all of them well worth over £100!
to enter:
Simply leave a comment on this post stating which birthday present you would like to win! For extra entries you can Tweet or Instagram letting me know which prize you’d like to win, but making sure you use the hashtag #WishWishWishIsSix so I am able to find all entries.
Due to the heavy nature of most of the items (I told you, these are some amazing prizes!) I am only able to afford to send out the smaller prizes internationally, so make sure to read the details under your chosen prize to check if you are eligible. All birthday presents are available to entrants in the UK!
The giveaway closes on Sunday 22nd June and winners will be announced that day.
London
If you pick the London package, you’ll be in with the chance to win a gift certificate for two to go to the Prêt-à-Portea afternoon tea at The Berkeley. I’ve been myself and can vouch for what a wonderful experience it is – just take a peek at my review here.
You’ll also get an Orla Kiely umbrella (’cause any Londoner knows you need an umbrella on you at all times!), an Orla Kiely notebook to jot down your plans for the day, and a beautiful illustrated pop-up guide to London to help you decide where to head after your tea!

Photography
If you pick the photography prize, you’ll have the chance to win a pastel pink Fujifilm Instax Mini 8, complete with film. I photographed my own Instax above – yours is fresh and in the box ready to be shipped off! You’ll also get a beautiful photo album.

Travel
If you have as much wanderlust as I do, the travel prize package may be the one for you! If you decide to enter for this prize, you could be getting your hands on a brand new travel set from Aspinal of London, including a leather travel document wallet (which is the cutest thing for organised travelers!), a passport cover and luggage tags.
I’m also throwing in a set of Luxe city guides that come in a beautiful presentation box, and a pair of sunnies!

Food
Yum! I hope you like baking cakes as much as I do!
Cath Kidston have kindly sent over a huge crate full of goodies for the budding baker, including a rolling pin, floral tupperware, a cake stand, oven mitts, an apron, a spatula, measuring cups, a flour shaker, a timer and tea towels. Phew!! Absolutely everything you need to make your kitchen look (and taste!) beautiful.

Beauty
You’ll know after my last post about them that I’m a huge Lush fan, so this beauty birthday present couldn’t be more perfect. If you pick the beauty prize you’ll be winning their Lush Legends giftbox. This thing is HUGE – it contains their 25 most popular products. The image above is just one of the tiers – imagine the fun of discovering what’s in all of them! A serious beauty haul.

Fashion
This is a good’un! If you love quirky luxury accessories as much as I do – make sure to pick the fashion prize! I’ve got not one but TWO Lulu Guinness clutch bags up for grabs. You’ll be getting a candy-striped pouch (RRP £125) as well as a magenta Katie clutch (RRP £245). Both beautiful pieces, I think you’ll agree!
