it ended yesterday and is still taking entries and votes ?? is it over or what?

I'm wondering how it will be judged. Will the number of votes be factored in too, or was someone just able to sneak in a photo at the last minute and get the highest score that way?

I'm not sure exactly how the judging works, but I do know there was a member creating false email accounts to vote her photo higher and other down(lots of comments with no pictures).
And yes, I think your right about sneaking a picture in at the last minute. For the fairness of the other entries I hope they take a good look at those closely.
I hold Lucky in high regard and would hate to be let down by not running their contests fairly.

I'm so with you! It was not judged on style. I tried to enter with my puppy picture and didn't get in and rightly so. I'm sorry but there was no style in that picture to win. View all my down loads of others to see style. I'm not putting yellow dress down, but even I know my sense of style would not have won,honestly how can you think that entry was stylish compared to others who entered. Fashion is not based on family and friends. Look at the current contests,you must notice the difference. I'm not a sore loser I just am confident of knowing style when I see it in others,hope the ring makes you happy,it won't bring you style,sorry! (wow I was harsh)

I followed the rules we were all allowed to enter till the last minute ,and I am wearinng a floral outfit. I figured there would be tons of last minute entries , rulse say higest score wins. I hope I do win I realy LOVE the ring !

As for "creating false email accounts," I am a new user who registered as a Stylespotter to vote for a family member who had an entry in the contest. I know a lot of other people did too. New accounts don't mean people are cheating.

I'm sorry but I just don't agree...

You're entitled to your opinion, heatheranne99, but contests like this one draw new users to the site. Personally, I'm so happy I now know about Lucky Style Spotter, and I will continue to visit the site.
I think it's bad form to accuse another user of "creating fake accounts." How would you know that?
Only Lucky can determine who played fair, and I truly hope they do!

Sounds like someone is a sore loser.

By the way, I've been a member as long as you, and still don't have a pic on my profile.

Hi Everyone,

Thank you for entering our first contest - the response was amazing!

To clarify, the contest is ranked based on the number of votes and average rating that a look receives.
To increase your chance of winning you'll want to have as many of your friends as possible vote for you.

We are tabulating the results for the diamond ring contest and will announce the winner shortly.

Until then, please keep entering our monthly contests (and get your friends to vote for you)!

Congratulations to whomever wins the ring!

Yellowdress won our Spring Bling contest. Congratulations!

Yellowdress received the MOST votes and the HIGHEST average rating.

Remeber everyone - in order to increase your chance of winning our monthly contests you'll want to get all of your friends to vote for you!

I debated all night whether to comment and decided I need to get this off my chest.
I honestly didn't care who won the ring as long as Lucky judged the contest fairly. I feel so let down by this decision. The competition ran for a month, during which many contestants accrued MANY votes. Am I really supposed to believe the winner entered a few minutes before the contest ended and had more votes than others who worked on this ALL MONTH? I don't believe it for one minute and this is really sad.

blazegirl,

We are sorry that you are disappointed but regardless of when yellowdress entered the contest she had the MOST votes. We are legally bound to reward her with the prize because she followed all of the contest rules.
There will be a great contest EVERY month on Style Spotter so don't be discouraged - plenty more chances to win!

ok just going to put my two cents in so it really does not matter if people vote, not cute or a 5 just as long as you get the most votes? i just want to know because this is a style spotter site meaning you have to have some since os style yes or no. ok im going to stop now because my mother always said if you have nothing nice to say dont say anything at all! but on that note i think the contest should be for power spotters or people who have been members since a certain time so that this does not happen again last min. people slippin in and gettin the goods when they are not into fashion. thanks

kddunham,

Yellowdress did have the highest average rating. She got a lot of her friends to go on to Style Spotter and vote for her - which is what we hope everyone who enters the contest will do in the future.

I think it's fair Yellowdress got a lot of her friends to vote for her. Next run I'll round up some friends for the next contest. After all Lucky wants this place to grow right?

I missed the last minute voting but I have to agree with Heatheranne99, Blazegirl, and especially Kddunham, LOL.

If family and friends all vote that isn't really judging style that is showing favoritism? I can't get my family let alone my friends not on this site to join so I can just get a comment, even if negative. I have to put an animal or friend to get comments, something is not right. The winner then comes out who has the most friends and family,not style! JUST MY THOUGHTS.

Look at who won the MARC JACOBS BAG: That yellowdress is "STYLE"! Do you and your family read LUCKY,WWD,VOGUE,INSTYLE,MORE,etc? Just wondering? Who are your style icons if you have any?
Your profile doesn't tell much about you?
Sorry getting in on this topic so late.

To be fair I'm going to rate myself on what I have learned from style spotters here,hope it is ok Lucky? I will be fair and honest with myself!

REMEMBER I RATED YOU TO BE FAIR,HOPE I WASN'T TO HARD ON YOU. I ADMIT I'M FAMILY.
ONE MUST ALWAYS KEEP A SENSE OF HUMOR WHEN POSTING,DO NO HARM!
