Product reviews for trendy Moms & Dads, their children & pregnant moms
So this is totally fun - stickers for your otherwise boring keys on your keyboard! It's $14 for a sheet of removable adhesives called Keycals that will fit one keyboard. Kind of love this - how many hours a day are you staring at your keyboard/computer on any given day? Probably a lot more than your cell phone or other item you have a decal … [Read more...]
Comfortable, springy and colorful - I am loving my new pair of Riptide shoes from Nine West ($75). A brand new shoe from Easy Spirit - they only just became available a few days ago! You can order them now but they aren't available to ship until tomorrow, April 30th. (No biggie!) Easy Spirit sent me the blue multi (pictured) to test out. I've … [Read more...]
You know it must be good if my boys are stealing it out of my shower - which happened shortly after I got a sample of Dial's Coconut Body Wash ($4.99) in the mail. It's the smell. You guys have to check this out next time you're in your toiletries aisle at your local drugstore or grocery store. Not too overpowering at all, it's just a fresh, … [Read more...]
The great thing about the blazer is how much it can change up an outfit. They are perfect for spring - go blazer, tank and skirt/pants by day and take off the blazer by night for a more casual look. I recently got the Navy Lightweight Wool Blazer from Banana Republic ($198) for a work function. I paired it with a plain white tee from … [Read more...]
What's not to love about the Happy Chic by Jonathan Adler collection of furniture, decorate accents and home textiles available at JCPenney.com at an affordable price? I'm totally loving these pillows featured in this picture on the right- they would be PERFECT for my living room sofa (same color as the one in the picture!) I found out about … [Read more...]
Over the years, my family has used several products from the fabulous DadGear. Years ago, DadGear started out of the inspiration to make baby gear that's Dad-friendly. We've all seen our hubbys and other Dads carry the frilly pink diaper bag and had a chuckle out of it. DadGear makes guy-friendly diaper bag gear. We've used the DadGear … [Read more...]
Last fall, I had hosted a small gathering of friends in my house with Lee Jeans. Lee Jeans flew out to Philly to fit us in some of their jeans. I'll be honest - prior to that party, the name "Lee Jeans" immediately took me back to my middle school fashion experiences in the 80s. I would not have considered Lee Jeans in 2012 for jeans to wear … [Read more...]
Last weekend, one of the better known Mom bloggy conferences - Type A - came to Philly for a day conference! I was thrilled when I heard they'd be in my own hometown stomping grounds so I signed up for the day. Many of my blog friends made a weekend out of it. My schedule has been just too insane to offer up any more time than a day trip into the … [Read more...]
The following is a sponsored post. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own! Today's Earth Day! Are you celebrating in any way? I think of Earth Day not so much as a day to celebrate but to consider what we're doing as a family to help sustain and support the earth. We recycle and we try and reuse as much as we can. My Green Resolution is … [Read more...]
So I just ordered one of these Lori Greiner Jewelry Safe Keeper and I'm so excited about it! You guys have to go watch the video to see how it works. I saw one of these in real life at Mom Mixer last weekend and I knew I had to have one. My current jewelry situation? A nightmare! Necklaces tangled up, bracelets piled up, earrings gone … [Read more...]
You know how there's never two snowflakes that are alike? I feel like we can pretty much make that same statement about women. We may have similarities but we each have different body types and shapes. And thank God for that, how boring if we were all the same, right? Lands End recognizes that women come in all shapes and sizes and they offer … [Read more...]
Knowing that I was going to have my kids in one space for close to eight hours while I hosted a work event last weekend, I knew I had to bring out the big guns for entertainment. Cole (6) had been seeing the commercials for Luigi's Mansion - Dark Moon, a new game from Nintendo for the Nintendo 3DS and I ended up caving and buying it for both boys … [Read more...]
How cute, fun and springy is this Vera Bradley laptop tote? I'm tempted to order one! Pick any pattern but the sale ends end of day today April 17 so get it today if you want! Which pattern would you pick? I love so many of them - this one above is the Doodle Daisy, love the bright blues! … [Read more...]
A gorgeous day in Philly, 150 Mom bloggers & some amazing brands - what more could a girl want out of a social media party? My head's still spinning from everything that goes along with planning an event and I'm still in cloud nine about how great Mom Mixer was last weekend. Today, I thought I'd bring you some more photos and a bit about … [Read more...]
It's a primer, concealer and foundation all in one. It's the new COVERGIRL Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1, a product that is meant to last all day long. Which in and of itself is pretty awesome since having a product that covers what 3 products previously did is pretty amazesauce - plus long lasting power? I'm in! But does it really work? I … [Read more...]
Yesterday morning, as I was running my 9 mile training run, some 26K+ people began running the Boston Marathon. No easy feat to even get in, they have to qualify just to cross the start line. As a runner, I am in awe of those people. Training to run a 10 mile race has not been easy and I can't even fathom going 26.2. They are running … [Read more...]
Yesterday was a full day for me; I was in in Center City Philadelphia co-hosting Mom Mixer. This is our second Mom Mixer event at the Hyatt at the Bellevue. And again, I have to reiterate how it really does take a family of people to support one of these events. So before I really dive in with sharing photos and details about everything from … [Read more...]
OMG people. This has to be the most ingenious and funniest thing ever. Watch this. It'll make you ship your pants ;-) … [Read more...]
I just love this time of year. The 80 degree weather here in Philly earlier this week was like music to my skin. Of course with this spring weather can come warm days and some not so warm days. So what does a girl wear? I'm a huge fan of the skirt. In fact, I can count the amount of shorts I wear on one hand. I'm all about the skirt. What … [Read more...]
Ever since returning from Spring Break in Orlando, I've been running around with an insane schedule. (Two days 'til Mom Mixer!) I wanted to share with you guys some of the reviews I've been doing of our trip from over on my travel site - Family Travel Diary. I definitely have more reviews coming - namely of Epcot and Magic Kingdom. But in the … [Read more...]
