lucky penny is oftentimes guilty of dancing around her house in nothing but a t-shirt and knickers. cute boyfriend finds this rather endearing… the ’80s power ballads? er, not so much. “i don’t want to find another way to make it through the day with you…”

um, she digressed.

drum roll, please… the winners (yes, plural) of the spec-tacular sunnies by kaytran eyewear are brittany, kathy and kortney. congratulations, lovelies!

“i said i loved you, but i lied.” now back to the topic at hand: more free stuff. urbanears headphones, originally from sweden, will sure add a pop of colour to her spring wardrobe.

the plattan (pictured left in mustard) has a zoundplug for instant music sharing, so simply plug in a friend and enjoy. the medis (pictured right in grape) has an earclick construction, keeping them firmly in place while relieving pressure from the ear canal.

***psst… to win one of two urbanears (plattan or medis), simply leave a comment below telling us “what is your favourite album of all-time and why?“. the winners will be announced on tuesday, may 1st. good luck!

lucky penny and cute boyfriend are not on speaking terms. [insert silent treatment here.]

not only did he have time to update his facebook status and tweet, but he also did not respond to her text message this morning. she is absolutely livid.
