Review: Sip Stainless Steel Straight Straws



I admit. I'm a kid when it comes to using a straw. Plus I can't handle drinking a beverage with ice without a straw. Just a weird sensitivity I have. I've recently become a fan of stainless steel straws. I wasn't totally a fan because they aren't flexible so you're stuck drinking them in that curved position. Not always easy for me; definitely not easy for my kids. I really like these straight straws because they're a bit easier to use.  I know they're more expensive than the disposable straws you buy, but over time they do pay for themselves!  Plus these Sip Sip straws come with a little brush so it's super easy to clean them!

These straws are BPA free and easy to clean.  They are the same size as a standard straw so smoothies, milkshakes and sodas can be drunk with ease.  Even though they are stainless steel they don't fluctuate in temperature much so your drink will remain a consistent temp, too!

Review: Sublime Beauty 9 Piece Sampler Box





I normally use the Sublime Face Whisperer Day Cream so I KNEW I would love this 9 piece sampler set.  First of all, everything smells AMAZING, especially the Vitamin C and Cellulite Cream/Gel.  I'm used to cellulite creams smelling gross, and Sublime Beauty definitely made sure their's did not.  Of the 9 items, 5 come in little tubs and 4 come in pump bottles.  I tried each product on the back of my hand for now and they all absorb quickly and clearly.  None of the products leave nasty, oily residue.

This 9 piece kit contains:
Collagen Serum (4-5 apps)
Retinol Serum (4-5 apps)
Hyaluronic Serum (4-5 apps)
Glycolic Serum (4-5 apps)
Collagen Mask (1-2 apps)
Vitamin C Cream (4-5 apps)
Cellulite Whisperer Gel and Lotion (1-2 apps each)
Facial Oil (4-5 apps)

I love this set, as I love all the other Sublime products I've tried.  I definitely recommend them!

You can find them on Amazon right here!

Review: Stanzino® Women's V neck 3/4 Sleeve Casual Tunic


I'm usually very leary about ordering clothes online.  Even if it's from a store I normally physically shop at, it just seems clothing that gets shipped to me fits differently.  I was given the opportunity to try and review this Stanzino Women's V-neck 3/4 Sleeve Tunic and I must say - I am in love.  I wear it to work every chance I get (well, I've worn it twice now).  I chose a size medium in black.  I was worried that it would be too small because online clothes tend to run small and I've been gaining weight.  Well, to my surprise, the medium fit!  Yippee!


As you can see the tag only says the brand name and that it was made in the USA (bravo).  I was concerned that maybe I got the wrong size.  Again, it fit fantastic.  When I first opened the package I took a good look at the shirt.  It's very flowy and I was thinking it was going to make me look bigger than I was because it really didn't have any definite shape to it.  The back is a bit longer than the front (which I love because I don't always like showing my butt).  Also, my boobs look HUGE in the shirt!  I'm already fairly voluptuous, and this tunic accented that in a classy way.  The V-neck wasn't too deep so I am able to wear this to work without showing any cleavage.

My only complaint - the black dye rubbed off on my bra and on my skin.  That happened the first two times I wore it.  I didn't have any problems washing it (probably because the leftover ink was already on my skin and bra LOL).  It easily washed off with soap and water, though.  Everything else about the top is great - the stitching is tight and even, the material is soft, it fit just as expected.

You can find them on Amazon right here!  Or you can search by ASIN B00VS2HU16.  Clicking my link is probably easiest!

Runtlly Review Style RR6




I seriously love this shirt so much.  It's so soft and the design is so detailed.  The actual tank top is long so I don't feel like I'm wearing a crop top.  All I do is add a little sweater to it and I wear it to work!  Plus this shop, Runtlly, is the best company to do business with!

Review: Hers By Herman Womens Sexy Kiss of Envy Matching Set #HersbyHerman


I am quickly becoming a fan of Hers by Herman (which can be found on Amazon).  Like I said in my other post, I normally don't buy intimate apparel online.  I was given the chance to try Hers by Herman out and I must say, I am VERY HAPPY and will now be a loyal customer.

This black and white (the white is kind of a very light pink) "Sexy Kiss of Envy" Pushup Bra and Boyshort set is very sexy, and for the price, totally worth it!  I normally buy my bras and panties from Victoria's Secret, Aerie and sometimes Kohls.  I probably will be saving a lot of money and time by ordering straight from Amazon!

I ordered a 36C/L combo and they fit as expected.  I do have to play around with the straps to get my chest to look the way I want it to.  That goes with any bra, though.  And this pushup bra really gives great support and really makes them perky!  I don't lie when I say this bra is amazing.  Since it is detailed in lace it will show through if you wear a form fitting top, so take that into consideration. The bottoms are very comfy...the material is breathable and fits like a standard boyshort.


Fun facts about this set:
  • Soft
  • Imported
  • 90% nylon, 10% spandex
  • Hook & eye closure

Review: Hers By Herman *Womens Southern Belle Lace Push up Bra & Matching Panty Set* #HersbyHerman


I normally don't order undergarments from the internet.  I'm a loyal customer to Victoria's Secret, and some times Aerie.  This "Southern Belle" set I bought from Amazon (at a discount) was my first ever online purchase of intimate apparel.  I am now a VERY BIG FAN of Hers by Herman.  I normally squeeze myself into a 34D... I probably should move up to a 36 because I'm not as skinny as I once was, but I digress... I ordered a size 36C/L combo.

This Her by Herman set is silky soft with intricate detail along the top of the cups.  This isn't a bra you can wear under tight shirts because of the lace and jewels (unless you don't mind the bumps showing).  That being said, this bra does lift in all the right spots and fits as well as I thought.  Since I'm normally a D cup, the C is a bit snug BUT I can play with the straps and probably get it to fit just right.  Or I can lose a few pounds...



The size L panties fit perfect.  They are soft and comfy, and don't show any lines under my dress pants.  Both the bra and panty feel like silk and are VERY comfortable.  I'm definitely a fan of this brand and since I know how sizing works, I'll know how to order my next set (and the set for my daughter)!

The price is right, too.  Check them out on Amazon right here!!
