Full-Freedom Cotton Bra by Carole Martin #review

**I received this product for free for review purposes.**

If you ask me, it would probably be easier to find a needle in haystack than find a bra that fits all my needs.  I want a bra that is easy to put on, comfortable, reasonably priced and offers support to the twins.  I actually found a bra that can do all of this!  It's the Full-Freedom Cotton Bra by Carole Martin. 

The clasps are in the front which makes putting it on really easy.  It is so comfortable that I almost forgot that I was even wearing a bra.  You can buy this bra on Amazon for $12.99 and there are three different colors to choose from.  And now for the most important bra feature: it is very supportive and it doesn't even have an underwire!  I think this may just be the perfect bra...

#SkinnyTie #review

**I received this item for free for review purposes.**

I love it when my husband dresses up for date night.  He looks so good in a dress shirt and tie.  I got him a Skinny Tie because I want to increase his collection so he has more of a variety to choose from.  I knew that this tie was going to be skinny, I just didn't realize how skinny.

Just look at the difference!  Skinny Ties are handmade and come in several different bright and vibrant colors.  Of course you can choose a more neutral tone like black or blue. 

I love the way the Skinny Tie looks on my husband.  There's something about the material and smaller width that captures my attention.  I'm thrilled with this tie!

Men's Collections Neckties #setof2neckties #review

**I received this product for free for review purposes.**

My husband looks good no matter what he wears.  He looks so sexy when he wears a dress shirt and tie.  He's pretty picky about what he wears so finding him a good tie can be quite a task. 

My husband was extremely happy with the Men's Collections Neckties.  According to him the ties are the perfect length and width.  He can wear one of these ties with a pair of jeans or he could wear it with a suit.

Lucky for me, my husband likes dressing up. I'm going to have to get him some more dress shirts and more Men's Collections Neckties so I can take him out and show him off. :)

Switch Socks #switchsocks #review

**I received this item free of charge in exchange for my honest review.**

I'm always trying to find comfy yet stylish socks for my husband.  I think I may have just found the perfect brand!  I love the look of these Switch Socks.  I wear funky socks all the time and I like it that there is a pair of men's socks that aren't just one solid, boring color.  I know, I'm not the one wearing them, but it's still nice to know that my hubby can put on a pair of comfy and playful socks whenever the mood strikes him.  Here is what he has to say:

Switch Socks? Possibly.

When I first put the socks on, to be honest, I was slightly disappointed. They felt quite thin, like a pair of dress socks, which made me wonder why they were be categorized as athletic socks. After wearing them for a few hours however, I was more pleased than I originally expected I would be. Yes, the top of the socks are thin, nearly like a dress sock as I mentioned earlier, but they are so much more than that.

The sole of the sock is quite soft and also closer to the regular thickness that you would expect an athletic sock to be. I realized, which seems obvious now, that the top of the sock is thin intentionally so that you feet can breath and not become excessive stinky like a lot of thicker athletic socks cause them to be. These socks are exceedingly comfortable. I actually wore them for 2 days before finally putting them in the laundry. Yes, it was the 2 days of a weekend where I didn't really do much, but still, I didn't want to take them off. I did wear them going out and about a few times, I wore them while taking my dogs for a walk, and I wore them just sitting around the house. My feet did not get hot, sweaty, smelly or any of the other nasty words that could be associated with discomfort or odor.

I really like the styling of the socks as well. They have several color options and designs to choose from. I also like the “S” emblem sewn on the side of each sock. I'm not sure why, but I like it. Probably because I can walk up to people and say, “Hey! Check out my cute little “S”!” The styling is especially nice if you need to wear a dressier outfit, but still want to feel a little “wild” underneath, like you've got a funny little secret or inside joke. I also like that the socks lay perfectly flat and even, rather than laying at an angle like most socks. The heel is on the back, rather than to one side or the other, and the toes are at the bottom instead of being at a 45 degree angle, or so, from the heel. In my opinion, this makes them much easier to put on, fold, and put away. Even after washing and drying, they came out of the dryer the same way they came out of the package. Flat.

Overall, yes, I would definitely recommend these socks to anyone. I would also recommend that a certain someone, who just happens to be posting this on her blog, buy me a few more pairs... hint hint Bridget. So, to answer my original question: Switch Socks? Yes. Yes I would.

Doctor Who Tardis Striped Knee High Socks #review

**I received this item at a discounted price in exchange for my honest review.**

When it's time for me to pick out some new socks, I always seem to end up with a funky pair.  I don't know what it is about wacky socks that makes me so happy.  I'm in love with my new Doctor Who Tardis Striped Knee High Socks.  They are so comfy! 

I love everything about them, how they look, how they feel and how long they are.  Best of all, they show off my personality. I'm a proud sci-fi nerd and my colorful Tardis socks are great!  They are super long and will be perfect for keeping my feet and calves warm this winter. 

Buttons & Pleats Womens Cotton Crew Socks Colorful Series #review

**I received this product free of charge in exchange for my honest opinion**

I have some more Button and Pleats Socks! I'm beginning to think that this brand makes socks especially for me. I love the funky colors that they throw together. This company makes the softest socks I have ever worn.

 

It's hard for me to find good socks because my feet get really sweaty. At the same time I don't want my feet to get cold. The blend of 76% cotton, 22% polyester and 2% spandex allows my feet to feel cool and comfortable. 

 

There are several different patterns to choose from.  Thankfully, you can clean these socks by putting in the washing machine and setting it to warm.  Once they are all clean, you can transfer them to the dryer and set it on tumble dry.  Make sure you don't use bleach. 

I am so glad I was introduced to Buttons and Pleats Socks because they make a bold statement with fun colors and do a their job perfectly.

I have had a funky sock obsession ever since I was a little girl.  I love the combination of bright colors and crazy designs.  That's why I got so excited when I saw Buttons & Pleats Womens Cotton Crew Socks Cute Series 5 Pairs.  Buttons & Pleats offers several different patterns and colors to choose from.

On the day that I received my new socks, I pulled them out of the plastic and tried one on right away.  I really like how the socks feel on my feet.  They are a combination of cotton, polyester and spandex.  My feet get really sweaty, so it's hard for me to find the right combinations of materials that will keep my feet warm and allow them to get some air.  Luckily, these crew socks are breathable.

They are so soft!  I'm so happy that I have these comfortable socks to wear to work or even just when I'm sitting at home.  If you wear a ladies size five through nine, these socks will make a wonderful addition to your sock collection!  What do you think?  Do you like the design?

Get Mom the Perfect Gift from #Teddy_the_dog

I am very blessed because I have a mother who loves me unconditionally. It doesn't matter how many mistakes I've made or that I am not the perfect daughter.  My mom makes me feel like I am exactly who I am supposed to be.  She is always right there waiting whether I need a helping hand or just a shoulder to cry on.  So when Mother's Day comes around, I always want to shower her with the perfect gifts. 

Mom is a lot like me.  She is more interested in the meaning behind a gift than the monetary value.  She is just as happy with a meaningful card as she would be with an extravagant gift.  This makes me want to spoil her even more.  It's too bad that I don't have the funds to go nuts over Mother's Day but then again, I don't really need to.  I can find her the perfect meaningful and pocket-friendly gift from Teddy the Dog.

Having a dog in my family means that you have an extra family member who happens to have more legs than you do.  We do not have "pets".  Our dogs come with us for family get-togethers, car rides and vacations.  I was so thrilled when I found this "Kiss My Mutt" t-shirt!  It's so cute!  I love it when I find something to wear that brings meaning and humor together. 

 

My entire family, including the mutts, like to curl up with blankets.  It is not uncommon to see a dog with their head on a pillow and a blanket over their body.  The best part is, they are the ones who make it that way.  Yes, the dogs in my family are spoiled and they definitely know what it means to be comfortable. 

 

When I laid eyes on the "Let Sleeping Dogs Lie" blanket, I knew that I had to have it.  It reminds me so much of those furry, four-legged animals that brighten up our lives.  My mom is going to flip out when she sees this!  It's absolutely adorable.  Plus, it is the softest blanket I have ever felt.  Seriously, it is so soft that you just want to keep rubbing it in between your fingers.

Review - Star Wars Logo Blast Mens Hoodie Sweatshirt

As I have said before, I was pretty much born a Star Wars fan.  A love for the force was deeply embedded in my DNA.  I remember back when I was young and my dad and I would have a Star Wars marathon, watching Episode 4-6 back-to-back.  You can imagine how thrilled I was when I came across Simply Superheroes all of their products.  They have all the great selection of products, including Star Wars, The Green Lantern, Batman and more.

When I first laid eyes on the Star Wars Logo Blast Mens Hoodie Sweatshirt, I knew that I had to get one!  I like to wear apparel that allows me to express myself.  This hoodie is super soft, comfortable and warm.  The letters even glow in the dark!  The drawstrings are adjustable and the front pouch pockets are perfect for storing your cell phone.  You can purchase one of these hoodies for yourself in size small through XXL for under $50.

Review & #Rafflecopter #Giveaway: Jockey Sports Bra & Purex Crystals

I have always hated shopping for a new bra. In my experience it's impossible to find one that fits in all areas. I usually end up spending an entire day and then eventually give up and just buy the last one I tried on. One of my New Year's resolutions is to get fit. I normally like to work out in the privacy of my own home, so I decided that I needed a good sports bra and a pair of workout shorts. Luckily, I received the 2012 Jockey Tech Terry Performance Sports Bra.

Wearing this sports bra gave me the support I needed (even while moving around all over the place) and gave me the comfort that my body craves.  My workouts are much more enjoyable thanks to Jockey.  

Features:

Moisture-wicking sports bra helps keep you cool & dry

Convenient key pocket so you can work anywhere

Breathable mesh panels

Soft bottom band for Comfortable support

Most performance sportswear should not be washed with fabric softener because of the oil content.  Well, that has changed that thanks to Purex Crystals.  Purex Crystals are 92% natural crystals and should be put in the washer along with the detergent.  The first item that I used the Purex Crystals on was my comforter and I couldn't believe how softer it felt against my skin and how intoxicating the scent was. 

Purex Crystals do not contain oil which makes it possible for me to use it on my new sports bra! 

 

#HGG Review & #Rafflecopter #Giveaway: Crazy Dog Tshirts

Crazy Dog has some of the coolest tee's ever.  I've always been a tshirt and jeans kind of girl and as you all know, I can't get enough of funny shirts.  Especially when they are super soft and don't shrink after the first few washes.  I have been working on brightening up my wardrobe and getting something besides my normal black tee.  Crazy Dog actually makes that pretty easy with their wide selection.  I had a horrible time trying to narrow down my choices but I decided that I would just get them all eventually.  Here are a few that I have added to my wish list

I'm a Star Wars fanatic, so this shirt is right up my alley!

I love to read and the fact that it's someone sitting on the toilet makes me laugh every time I see it.

Who doesn't love Sheldon?

I couldn't believe it when I saw this shirt! I used to love playing Heads Up Seven Up!

The shirt I ended up choosing made me giggle and here it is!  The I'd Hit That tee from the Funny t-shirts category.  I don't like for my t-shirts to be to thick or too thin, this shirt is just right.  It's extremely comfortable and a conversation starter.  I've had people come up to me just to tell me that they love this shirt and ask where I got it.

Holiday Gift Guide Review & Giveaway: Costume Squad Tee

When I was asked to choose a t-shirt from Costume Squad to review, I looked through all of the available shirts so that I could make an informed decision. I picked the Coexist shirt from the All Tshirts category because I love the fact that there are so many different people with different ideas.  Meeting people who can help expand my knowledge is important and I like being able to wear a comfy t-shirt that means something to me.  Plus, it's nice to wear a bright, pretty blue tee instead what I usually wear, a black tee with jeans.
