Vote for Me and I'll Set You Free! (Not Really)

For the past three years, I have been very proud to have Couture Allure voted as one of the Top 10 Vintage Websites at Lulu's Vintage Blog. Lulu has two categories - her own favorites and the People's Choice award. My friends, Couture Allure needs your help! If you love this blog and my website, please pop on over to Lulu's Blog and vote by leaving a comment on this post naming Couture Allure as your favorite vintage website!

OK, so I can't set you free, but as a thank you, I will do two things for you.

1. I'll continue to bring you the best selection of vintage clothing on the web and daily posts on my blog.

2. I'll share this video of the Temptations performing "Ball of Confusion" so you can stop wondering, "What song was it that had that line, 'Vote for me and I'll set you free'?". If you're like me, that was going to bother you all day until you figured it out, right? By the way, "Ball of Confusion" was released in June of 1970 and hit #3 on the Billboard charts. Rock on. Now go...vote!

Thank You!

Wow! I'm feeling pretty special this morning, and it's all because of you. You know that moment when Miss America is chosen from the finalists and crowned? That's how I feel today.

Did you ever imagine how it must feel to be the princess riding at the top of the float in a parade? That's how I feel today.

Have you ever dreamed of how it must feel to wear a sparkling jeweled tiara and scepter? That's how I feel today.

Why? Because Couture Allure has been chosen by you as one of the Top 10 Vintage Sites in Lulu's People's Choice Award for the second year in a row! I am deeply honored to be included in such an elite list of fabulous vintage sites and I am most humbly grateful to each and every one of you who took the time to vote for me in this year's contest. Thank you!
