Over the Holidays, we welcomed you to share your Cherry Cheer with us, in the form of pictures of your precious moments in Cherry Velvet style. We tremendously enjoyed seeing your gorgeous photos (and many furry friends), and now we have reached that moment we've all been waiting for.
Without further ado...here are the winners!
Drum roll please!
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to everyone that sent some Cherry Cheer our way over the holidays! It was so delightful to see your posts and you genuinely filled our hearts with cheer and happy smiles.
Third Place
Megan Chambers gets an A for outstanding effort with her clever and beautiful hello to 2021! She'll get to choose one of our new Sophia Shrugs in the colour of her choice.
Second Place
Monica Benoit clearly needed to be our second prize winner for braving the chilly Canadian winter! We'll be sending her a beautiful Evergreen Cape to help her keep warm!
First Place
How lovely is first prize winner Geneviève Parisé, in her Dita dress and victory rolls, in this beautiful retro black and white photo. Genevieve is the lucky recipient of a Cherry Velvet dress and crinoline of her choice!
Random gift card draw
Awarded earlier were our gift card winners, @elizabethkinsey and @kitskt - lucky gals!
And of course, all your lovely entries made it very hard to pick the winners! Browsing through the #CherryCheer tag on Instagram and Facebook has been truly fun.
Plus, we had to make an honorable mention to all the pet friends that made our hearts fuzzy in so many entries ♥️
Please know we appreciated each and every one of you and your beautiful photos.
Thank you for spreading the Cherry Cheer and we hope we brought a little fun and excitement to your holiday season too!
Happy 2021!

Stay Dressed Challenge WINNERS!!!
Published Apr 24 2020 in #staydressedchallenge, Cherry Velvet, Contest, Gift card, Prize
These past couple of weeks, our #staydressedchallenge has received over 100 entries. It's been a uniquely wonderful experience, connecting with our customers in this way that's brought us so much joy. We've read message after message talking about how great it feels to put on something nice, even when just staying home.
With this contest, we found even more proof that treating yourself well has a real impact on your well-being. It's a privilege for us to be a part of this - to provide you the frocks that make your faces smile.
Your creativity, joy, and humour have amazed us and inspired us each day with every new entry. We could not be more thankful for the chance to get to know each of you a little bit.
Before we jump into the final results, we'd first like to showcase some beautiful entries. We could not possibly include every single entry here (unfortunately), but we most certainly appreciate everyone! Here's a few we think you'll enjoy seeing, though:
Domestic divas leaving no chore undone...
Families being brought together...
Brainy babes having a read...
Everyone staying hydrated...
And everyone just having wild amounts of fun!
We really recommend you browse the #staydressedchallenge tag on social media, and feast your eyes on the awesome entries!
And without much further ado... Here are the winners of the #StayDressedChallenge!!!
In 3rd place... @yyc_mamma_p!
In 2nd place... @mrspugbaby!
And in 1st place... @rainywindigo, with a staggering number of entries!
(Seriously, she made so many awesome and beautiful entries!)
Congratulations to our lovely, beautiful, creative winners!!
Experiencing this with you all has been amazing, and we really want to create more engaging contests like this in the future. Thank you all for gracing us with your beautiful, funny, charming, sweet photos and messages, and Stay Dressed!
Much much love,
XOX Cherry Velvet

**CONTEST ALERT!!** - #staydressedchallenge
Published Apr 02 2020 in #staydressedchallenge, Contest, COVID-19, Dresses, Fashion
These past couple of weeks, the whole world seems to have implemented preventive measures against a certain virus. The order is clear: Stay home (if you can)! Many of us are working from our living rooms and home offices, while others are simply staying home, without much to do.
Although the initial impulse when staying home may be to relax, perhaps stay in your pyjamas, or wear your hair in a messy bun and abolish pants altogether, we are here to say: Halt!
Stop right there if you're wearing your nightgown past noon!
It is known that staying in PJs all day can be a hit to your self-esteem and overall mood. On the other hand, it is beneficial to your productivity (whether you are working from home or doing other activities) to change into day clothes. At the end of a productive day, getting into your loungewear is a great way to relax and "leave work".
To look after you (because we care!), we're challenging you and all your friends to Stay Dressed - And what's more, there're prizes!!
So put on a frock, and show us how you rock it at home - be it doing your chores, doing your job, working out, or passing the time in any way (such as doing our coloring pages!)
And with a dress, you still don't have to put on pants!
INSTRUCTIONS:
* Take a photo or video of yourself passing the time while sporting a retro-inspired dress/look - Bonus marks for creativity and styling!
* Share your look via Instagram or Facebook, and tag #staydressedchallenge in your post to be entered into our draw to win 1 of 3 Cherry Velvet E-Gift Cards - You could win a $100, $150 or $200 E-card. Don't forget to nominate your friends!**For every 3 nominations, you'll get an extra entry to the draw, so tag your friends and challenge them, too!**
We can't wait to see your entries, good luck!
