LuLaRoe Clothing Review and Giveaway

feb 2016 001 feb 2016 007

     As you all know I love great fashion. What’s even better is being able to shop online and know what that the clothes you are getting are not only great quality, and a great price, but very cute too. I cannot tell you how many times I bought a cute dress online just to get it and it is just worthless falling apart or just does not look like the picture. With LuLaRoe this will not be a problem at all. The biggest problem you will have is not buying too many cute outfits all at once.

    feb 2016 042   feb 2016 040

The Nicole dress came in so many designs no matter what your style is you will find the one that is perfect for you. I also love that they make a minimum number in each design, which means you will not see 100 different women wearing your fabulous dress.  They material on this dress was not only soft but stretchy. If you are like me and maybe go up and down a few pounds this is a perfect dress for you. It is going to fit whether you are having your let’s call them bloated day or your skinny day.

       So let me tell you a little story about leggings. I have not worn a pair since the 7th grade. I always thought they would be tight and uncomfortable. There is nothing worse than sitting down and your clothes are tight. I thought for sure they were going to cut into my no so perfect six pack stomach. Boy was I wrong I think these are now my favorite pants. I did not have to suck and squeeze into them. When I am wearing them it’s like a second skin. Best of all they are like a great pair on spanks that you don’t have to cover up. While they helped hold everything in they had great style that I could dress up. I have seen the light I am now a believer in leggings.

     When I opened the leggings the first thing I notices was how soft the fabric was. Think of you cuddliest blanket made into a cute pair of leggings. That is what you will get with them. They have a ton of different designs to choose from and best of all they are one size fits all. This means no worry about getting the wrong size. The stitching on these is fantastic and there were no loose threads at all.

   To shop their fantastic style head over to their Facebook Group. They will keep you informed on their new styles and designs. You can also shop right from their page. They will invoice your right on paypal. They have very fast shipping and great customer service.

SNOWTIME Hits The Theaters Feb 19th #SnowTimeMovie

SNOWTIME

Hits The Theaters Feb 19th #SnowTimeMovie

 

snowtime

 

I was so excited when we got the change to watch SNOWTIME. This awesome movie will be in theaters February 19th. My son loved this movie, it keep him sucked in to the very end. As a mom from California who now lives in Colorado this time of year all I see is cold and snow. Sometimes it takes a cute movie to remind you of the beauty of snow and how much fun it can actually be.

   The charters in this movie are well thought out they are cute and entertaining. The songs are perfect. All together I would say this was a great movie for us. It made a great family movie night. If you are looking for a cute fun adventure that will teach your kids a lesson this is a must see for you.

 

P.S  I am now ready for a family snowball fight.  A friendly one of course.

UPDATE:

I always write my reviews when I am half way done with the movie.  That way I don’t give away the ending.  I had to write an update to this one.  There was truly a heart breaking moment near the end.  You will have to watch to see it I don’t want to give away spoilers.  Just be ready for it

More about it.

 

“New animated feature SNOWTIME! is a romp through childhood full of heart and humor. To amuse themselves during the winter school break, the kids in a small village decide to have a massive snowball fight. Luke and Sophie, both 11 years old, become the leaders of the opposing sides. Sophie and her cohorts defend an elaborate snow fort against the assault of Luke’s horde. Whichever side occupies the fort at the end of the winter break, wins. But what starts out as pure youthful fun and enthusiasm deteriorates into a more serious conflict, where children learn valuable life lessons on friendship, the importance of unity, and the emotional consequences of vicious rivalry. The film’s underlying message – neither side wins in war – is as relevant today as ever.
Based on the acclaimed live-action film classic La Guerre des Tuques (The Dog Who Stopped the War), SNOWTIME! is a captivating cinematic adventure about hope and friendship. The film explores the sometimes mercurial relations between friends during childhood, and the role that enthusiastic competition and energizing solidarity play in the lives of children.”

Live Like An Aristocrat

This Vacation Package Let’s You Live Like An Aristocrat

 

Crom_Castle_private enterance

You want to be treated like royalty this vacation? You’ve got it. Honestly, this new vacation

package will treat you like you are part of the aristocratic family as your host, Ireland’s 7th Earl of

Erne opens up his castle to you for a three night stay. Exclusive tours, rubbing shoulders with

other prominent figures-it all will unfold with this new vacation package. Not convinced yet?

Here are just a few more reasons why you might just want to ditch the beach this year and head

to Ireland instead.

Crom Castle Boathouse

Three Nights Stay in Crom Castle

This working Irish castle will be your home for three nights. As you will be hosted by a member

of the aristocracy, you will be treated just like a member of the family by his staff. In fact, they

won’t let you lift a finger as they take your luggage to your room and prepare you drinks in the

conservatory. Aside from the castle itself, you will also receive exclusive access and tours around

the luxurious grounds.

The Earl of Erne

You Will Be Hosted By The Earl of Erne

John Critchton, the 7th Earl of Erne will be welcoming you into his family home and hosting you

during your stay. The home has been in his family for generations and he will see to it that you

feel welcomed. Earl Critchton will introduce you to other prominent figures and give you tours

of the surrounding area that only he could get you access to.

private castle dining room

You Will Be Wined And Dined

From a four course dinner in the conservatory and a full Irish Breakfast to afternoon tea and

pre-dinner cocktails, you will be spoiled with your choices in fine dining. Guests will be taken for

pints in local Irish bars and receive a gala dinner in their honor.

You Will Get Exclusive Tours

Guests at Crom Castle should be prepared for afternoon boat trips around the grounds, tours of

other aristocratic properties, walking tours of historic towns and access to other castles.

Crom Full Bathroom - Copy

You Will Meet Lords And Ladies

That’s right, you will meet living, breathing lords and ladies during your exclusive tour. The Earl

will introduce guests to his cousins the Lord and Lady Anthony Hamilton at their own private

You Will Have Exclusive Transport

One of the biggest hassles of traveling is the trains, planes and automobiles that are required to

get you to each destination. This tour takes the grunt work out of the experience by providing

private, comfortable and luxurious transport to get you from one destination to the next.

If you do decide to live like an Aristocrat this vacation, then there are plenty of other things that you must see whilst you’re in Northern Ireland. The titantic museum in Belfast, the Giant’s Causeaway, the Mussenden temple and Derry city walls are all popular tourist attractions for very good reasons. And if you decide this isn’t the hotel for you, then don’t be put off visiting as there are plenty of amazing hotels in derry, Belfast, and Omagh to name just a few.

Who else is excited for such an awesome vacation?

Lady Gaga set the 2016 Grammy Awards red carpet

Lady Gaga set the 2016 Grammy Awards red carpet on fire last night with a special look to honor the legend of David Bowie and his musical legacy. Her flaming red Ziggy / Gaga hair look was styled by Frederic Aspiras for L’ANZA Healing Haircare.

 

 

How the Style Was Created

Keratin Healing Oil Shampoo Design Foampolyester-RGB

  • Aspiras first washed Lady Gaga’s hair with L’ANZA Keratin Healing Oil Shampoo and L’ANZA Keratin Healing Oil Conditioner.

 

  • After towel drying he applied L’ANZA Healing Style Polyester on top of her hair, for texture, volume and shine.

 

  • He then applied L’ANZA Healing Style Design Foam to the remainder of her hair including the ends.

 

  • Aspiras then created two hair sections, separating the top from the bottom. Using a small round brush he blow-dried the top back of the hair for further volume.

 

  • He blow-dried the lower section with a large round brush, to give the style movement and a soft curl.

 

  • Using a large 2-inch curling iron, Aspiras then curled the sides towards the back and center, then curled the back of the hair going upwards. He pinned each curl with a clip and allowed it to cool.

 

  • After removing the clips and letting the curls drop, he gave them a light misting of L’ANZA Healing Style Dry Texture Spray. He then used a large paddle brush to brush out the curls.

 

  • He then applied L’ANZA Healing Style Beach Spray throughout.

 

  •  Next Aspiras used L’ANZA Healing Style Sculpt Dry Clay to piece and mold the top and sides. He also noted that Dry Clay is great for fly-aways.

 

  • To finish the look and for lasting hold and bounce, Aspiras applied a final misting of L’ANZA Keratin Healing Oil Lustrous Finishing Spray.

Forever Cool Instant cooling towel

feb 2016 010

    I was so excited when I got the chance to review this towel. We had seen infomercials about these towels. My dad and I always debate whether we should order one, now we have the answer yes you should order it. Want even better news you can actually get it right off Amazon.

feb 2016 021

In the summer here we get so hot no matter what I am doing. My daily walk, gardening, or just playing with little guy you can get over heated fast. This towel is perfect. Just taking it out of the package I could feel it was already cooler then the temp in the house. That was without it even being activated yet.

feb 2016 022

This towel is very easy to get it cooling down. Take the towel out pour water over it, snap it in the air and let the cooling begin.

                            feb 2016 025

This is a very different kind of fabric, It is a rubbery fabric but not uncomfortable. I just lay in over my shoulder against the back of my neck and it cools me down instantly. With summer coming I would recommend this to everyone. It even has 45 UPF to help protect your skin from the sun.

Gozbit Pizza Cutter

feb 2016 004 feb 2016 006

 

    Pizza lovers unit. As many of you know I am a true pizza lover. I used to run a pizza hut and when it comes to pizza it has to be good and my pizza tools have to be the best. When our pizza hut closed down, the stuff that was left over we got to keep. The one thing everyone was fighting over was the pizza cutter. I have looked forever and could never find a rocker pizza cutter. The rollers are good but nothing beats the perfect cut a rocker gives you.

feb 2016 013

       This one was truly the perfect pizza cutting tool. It is very sharp (so be careful) and it sliced right threw the pizza. No more cutting in all different directions loosing ½ the cheese because you have to go over it again and again. As you can see from the pizza it was a perfect cut. I could also cut any way I wanted to make the perfect little (just cheese) pieces for little guy and a few bigger pieces for myself.

feb 2016 014

This was also very easy clean up. I did not wash it right away and left it over night. We all know what that means soaking and scrubbing cheese off the next day. Not with this one just some warm water and soap it cleaned right up. I hand cleaned and dried this one. With any kitchen tool that is sharp and has wood on it always make sure to hand clean. Keep it working great for as long as you can.

feb 2016 015

I would completely recommend this pizza cutter to everyone.

  As you all know I love Candles.  I love to have a great center piece that also helps the house smell fantastic.  When these showed up I was very impressed with them.  These candles would make a great valentines gift.  If you have teenage daughters they are a perfect gift.  Not only do you get two great fragrances Raspberry White Chocolate and Romantic rose, they also have these very cute charms with them.  They made a very cute bracelet.

      jan 2016 004    jan 2016 007

  This also came with a wick saver.  It is a cute heart design that you can use to dip the wick when you blow it out, so your fantastic smell will not get messed up by the smell of a burned out wick.  

                                 jan 2016 008

 They also come in a cute mason jar that can be reused after you are done with the candle.

                                   jan 2016 009

  These were fantastic candles, not only did they smell great they came with very cute extras and were cute themselves.  If you are looking for a cute Valentines gift for that special person in your life I would completely recommend them to everyone.
