SKO vintage & niche shop "the Blooming attic" is running a.... Justin Bieber challenge?

In celebration of all things young this summer, the Blooming attic - in its infancy itself - is running a competition for all you Beliebers out there. Since the majority of the phenom's fans are glued to twitter [mmm...guilty!] we've been using our @RealSKOriginals twitter account in an effort to drum up entrants. After a lackluster initial response, we're taking to the blogosphere on a mission to dispel any fears our JBiebz audience may have about the challenge being some sort of scam or what we call "the hungry tiger" where someone pines for mentions by dangling hollow promises *C'mon now, that's twitter faux pas 101 and SKO wouldn't dare ;)
So what's the deal already!??

  • How do I enter? simply retweet this message: @RealSKOriginals I want to win bloomingattic.com's #Bieblink! RT to enter (make sure to follow so we can count your entries)






  • What's up for grabs? The secret link to the hottest and dare we say "most exclusive" JB fan item of the year[our opinion] ;) Only the Blooming attic has it; you can't find or buy it ANYWHERE else in the world ~ and even the attic only has enough for 25 fans to gain access to the link!
    [we recommend the purchase of earplugs for the winning fans' families: the screams could be deafening]
    ;)






  • Is this just about selling something? No. the Blooming attic actually won't make a profit on these items - For us, it's about getting the word out to members of this audience who may not know about us yet, of what we're all about [see sub-note @ the end of this post for more info about us]





  • We've had some retweets/entrants, but we really want to help the attic get a big jump-start so it can be filled with more swanky, rare merch to make your heart rate rise, without gouging your adorable Angela Adams wallet* and further the potential of the SKO efforts for charity and awareness we're trying to grow. Please login, follow and enter to win! :] 

    *Angela Adams is a fellow female designer & entrepreneur who started right where we are in southern Maine :) We hope & pray everyday that our dreams can come true too. She's a great role model.. not unlike Justin Bieber! :) 

    Sub-Note [not a must-read for the challenge, just some info about us] This audience admires Justin for "starting from nothing and making it big" through hard work, determination and having something to give people that no one else can. The SKO family works with that same passion every day to hopefully, someday make our dreams a reality . We want to make a big no.. huge no.. ENORMOUS difference in the world through our Original clothing, shoes & life-goods that offer great money-savings with the only $5 on-demand custom designing in the world. Our designs for supporting causes and charities reinvest in communities and people in need [such as our HopeForHaiti & USA Patriot stores where a shopper can buy creative t-shirts, hoodies, stickers, keychains, etc.that promote the cause(s) and we choose to donate portions of our profits to the American Red Cross & UNICEF Haiti Relief Funds, the Veteran's Administration and similar charities respectively].
    Stella Karmine Originals has been/is being built from a very modest place which we feel only fuels our drive to succeed that much more. Our generation has a heightened appreciation for the genuine and honest, similar to what the previous generation saw in the 60's -- and the Stella Karmine Originals family is here to represent that with pride
    :)
