Dangit! I ain’t no hollaback girl!
Dear Gwen Stefani…
Please send tickets to your next show.
Kind regards,
Tabs
I was able to see her perform with No Doubt all the way back in 1994, and I still remember the way she strutted across the stage in her blonde locks and red lips. It was pretty obvious even by then that she was going to be a HUGE star.
And she hasn’t stopped with music, either, having ventured into the fashion, accessories and fragrance businesses, too.
Remember last year’s Harajuku Lovers collection? My favorite one by far was Love — coincidentally, she’s the star of today’s celebrity fragrance giveaway. 🙂
The prize
One lucky lady will take home a bottle of Harajuku Lovers Love Fragrance (a $25 value).
Isn’t the bottle super cute!? I love (ha!) the avatar’s (where can I buy her hairdo?) oh-so-coy pose on the top.
Inside the bottle awaits a floral with notes of pink peony, pink pomelo, rose, vanilla, orchid and musk.

Loved the teal eye look you did with the black liner to sharpen the look. Greenish colours really make your eyes look amazing! Cuddles to Tabs, I hope the new space is suiting the feline temperament 🙂
OMG I hate my job! At least I can access my blog reader though… you definitely help pass the time!
Gwen is gorgeous!! I love your blog, and I just watched 2 episodes of NCIS ha <3
The packaging is sooo cute! She definitely has her own sense of style that leaks into everything she does.
I love everything Harajuku 😀 Off to go for a walk with the westy!!

I also saw Gwen perform when she was in No Doubt! I was too young to stay the entire performance though (my curfew was 11pm back them haha). But she rocked!
I adore Gwen SO much! She seriously rocks!
Did I mention you rock too 😀
Have you seen the show called “The Mentalist”? Well, the lead actor, Simon Baker, is gorgeous! He was on The View this morning, and the ladies talked about how he has been called “the hottest man on television”. I definitely agree!
I loved No Doubt as a kid, I used to dress up like Gwen Stefani and thought I was sooo cool. :p
I have a cold, so I probably can’t smell this or any perfumes right now lol, but I love Gwen!
hey Karen!
hhahahahhah re “hella”

i love these perfumes! they look adorable AND smell great!
Ooh I would love this fragrance. Thanks!
I’ve always loved Gwen’s hair. It makes me want to bleach mine blonde, but I’m not sure I can pull it off.
I love the perfumes… and I think Gwen is pretty amazing. Strong enough to pull off her own style…
6am is such an ungodly hour to be awake D; though your website makes it much better ;D
Give Tabs a big hug from me and my 2 cats !
Gwen is actually really pretty, did you ever think of trying to do an inspired look by her?
RT-ed @linnnerzism
I’ve never had the chance to see a No Doubt show. Oh and the bottle is super cute!
I follow you via Gmail (subscription). ^^
I wish to one day be able to do giveaways myself. It looks like a ton of fun and I always receive products I don’t use anyway, but to do giveaways like you where you have a large quantity of a certain product, that, I am not yet able to achieve. I should really look into finding work again. =(
Thank you, btw, for your reviews and your giveaways.
I love Gwen’s hair. But I don’t think could pull it off in that shade of… white hot… platinum…
I love the little lady on the top… It’s so cute it’s almost worth winning just for her!
.-= Christa Holland’s last blog post… Poladroid Tuesday: Lights Off =-.
I adore Gwen. She is in such fab shape! It was really motivating to have her videos on a repeating circuit while running my mileage at the gym. If I could meet Gwen, I’d want to meet her at the gym for a killer workout.

I missed out on seeing No Doubt tour back in the 90’s and recently. Maybe next time? If Tabs ever gets an extra ticket, can you let him know that I would love to get one as well? 🙂
I SAW NO DOUBT OVER THE SUMMER THEY ARE INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!
It’s rainy and dark and the kind of night I curl up with a good book, a glass of wine, and my Sophie-cat (a.k.a. Sophie-Get-Down!). I love fall; don’t love what comes next…
Love is my favorite of the Harajuku Lovers scents, too! It’s girly and refreshing without being too cloying. 🙂
I just drank a ton of lemonade and now my throat is all sticky and my voice sounds squeaky. D:

I used to looove No Doubt, but I just haven’t been impressed with her solo career. I do love her perfumes though. XD
I have the itty bitty sample from Sephora once & boy was it mesmerizing! Love these perfumes! Gotta have me some more 😀
Gwen Stefani was pretty much my idol when I was a kid. No Doubt was and still is one of my favourite styles. She’s such a classy lady and she’s always pulled off the craziest styles with such finesse.

Gwen is a classic beauty (X
I love Gwen cuz she introduced this whole Harajuku line of perfumes and apparel!
My pencilcase (which is supposed to be a makeup bag, but i wanted to show it off at school so it is now my pencil case) is a harajuku.
idk i just think it’s really cute, i feel like a tiny tiny girl again.

When Taco Bell brought the tostada back to their menu a few years ago, it was LOVE.
Today I was late for work because the bus arrived over 10 minutes earlier than it was supposed to. It was so lame!
I have a great weekend coming up! Friday, I’m going to a bday dinner at Cha Cha Cha’s in the Mission. Saturday night I’m going to a house party (the first one I’ve been to in a couple years!…). Plus I get to teach all my little baby ballerinas in Saturday morning! They are the cutest things in their little outfits. : D
That’s why I should get the Love fragrance… because I’m doing everything I LOVE this weekend! (eat, dance, and be with friends)
I have always thought Gwen was just *cool*. Those perfumes are a-dorable!
All your pics of Tabs make me miss my kitties back home (I just moved). My sis and I have three together and then I have one more and a dog at my parent’s house.
My favorite Gwen song is “Cool.”
Gwen is my ultimate fashion icon. I love her style and I love how talented she is. Her music, both solo and w/No Doubt is amazing. I can only hope to look as stylish when I am her age.
Hope to win!!!
I love perfume! 🙂
Absolutely my fave. Love Angel Music Baby!!!
I saw Gwen in concert 2 years ago, and she has so much stage presence! And she is a great singer live!
I love Gwen. I saw her in concert this summer it was so amazing.
I’ve been wearing my hair completely natural for the past two weeks and realized that products aren’t really always necessary for me. Big time saver 🙂

I actually do really like Gwen Stefani & No Doubt. I love her clothes lines too, but I so wish they weren’t so expensive and that some of the things came in larger sizes for BBW woman, like the tees.
Ahhh what a cool give away, I wish I had the voice of Gwen, she’s amazing!
Oh wow, I’ve been really curious about the smell of these fragrances!

I wish I could wear platinum hair + red lips like Gwen!
I saw Gwen on tour a little three years ago, and she was amazing–so sassy and confident! Loved every minute of the concert.
spiderwebs brings me back to 8th grade!
I love Gwen! I just saw No Doubt on tour and they were still amazing.

I’ve been dying to get my hands on one of them, especially g and baby!!
i love the fragrances
i tested them in sephora and kept spraying them over and over lol!
Awesome, awesome giveaway! 🙂 I love Gwen!
I love perfume! Could always use some more.
I love Harajuku Lovers, but I only have their waistbag. Get lots of compliments when I use it. 🙂
i didnt bough anything from the style black collection… lipsticks i can get it from the drugstore… mineralize eyeshadow not my favorite… i found a base that helps me no crease no need to spend more money than i have to.. face stuff i got my own and it works great!
I have one of Gwen’s perfumes but it doesn’t speak to me. I think I got G, it’s in a baby blue box. I didn’t know what the scent was until after I bought it. However, I do like Love and Music though. I wish there weren’t such things as final sale…
I wish you could teach people how to do their makeup for them. Girls around my school need alot of help.
Too much dark makeup = looking like the walking dead, or just plain awful
Makes me sad D:
I just past my 12 hour mark in the library studying for my med school exams…i could use some gwen-spiration!
