JORD Watch Review

A few weeks ago I was asked to review a wood watch from JORD. I was so excited because I had secretly been coveting these beautiful wood watches on Instagram for months. I had such a hard time choosing which watch I wanted to review but in the end I chose the Sidney in Red Sandalwood and Mother of Pearl.

I love watches and I really think they help set the tome for your outfit. I was so excited to see the Sidney in person.

I was not disappointed! My watch arrived in the mail a few days later and from the moment I opened the package I was smitten. There in the package was this beautiful carved wood box and when I slid back the cover, there was my beautiful watch shining on a fabric pillow.

When ordering my watch I had to provide my wrist size using the easy instructions from JORD. I was a little nervous that my watch would not fit but it was perfect. I even saved money on going to a jeweler to have my watched sized. Included in the box were a few extra links incase I needed them. What a great addition to be included in the box.

I was so impressed by the quality and the attention to detail to my JORD wood watch. The natural wood grain texture was stunning and as an art teacher I can appreciate the time that went into designing these watches so that not only are they hip and trendy but they are beautiful as well.

The SIDNEY series that I choose for my watch comes in a variety of woods but I chose the Red Sandalwood and Mother of Pearl finish. I love the red hues in the wood and I feel that the Mother of Pearl face gives it an elegant and chic look. This is a stunning watch and I absolutely love it and will cherish it for many years to come.

JORD has many different styles and woods to choose from so there is something for everyone. They range in price, but the quality, design and unique accessory is really what you are paying for and believe me it is worth the price.

These watches make excellent gifts from birthday to graduation or even anniversary gifts. I bet whoever the recipient is on your gift list would love to have one of these wood watches. This is a beautiful gift from the moment the box is received. And with free shipping in the USA, you will not be disappointed.

Give Your Hair New Life With The Living Proof Timeless Collection

This post was sponsored by Ulta as part of a Blog Blast Activation for Influence Central. I received complimentary products to facilitate my review.

My hair has been the glutton of punishment my whole life. I have been dying my hair since high school, using hot rollers, straightening tools and sewing in extensions to torture my hair so I can look good. I honestly don’t remember what color my hair is or was in its natural state.

I was recently introduced to the Living Proof Timeless Collection available only at Ulta Beauty to help combat the signs of my aging hair. Since using this collection my dry, dull hair appears to have more luster and is softer to the touch. This system offers results to transform your hair to a healthier and stronger state.

For this month’s box, my husband received a tie, a pair of socks, cologne, collar points and a pocket square (well in this case a pocket circle). Everything was coordinated around an icy blue color. This Dapper Box was a beautiful gift and it is something that you would not neccessarily buy for yourself.

Back to School In Style With OshKosh B’gosh

I participated in a Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for OshKosh B’gosh. I received a promotional item to thank me for my participation.

I can’t believe that summer is almost over but one thing I can always look forward to is Back to School shopping and this fall OshKosh B’gosh is sporting the must-haves of the season paired with modern heritage.

I love Back to School shopping both for the kids and myself. I love seeing all the new styles in the stores. OshKosh B’gosh has plenty of different pieces designed for today’s active, expressive kids. From moto jackets & jeggings for my daughter to awesome bold and colorful graphic tees for my son. The possibilities are endless.

First and foremost, my son needs jeans for school every year. It seems he sprouts up ever summer. I love B’gosh blue jeans because they have an adjustable waist, great color selection and they are durable. Plus I love the giving component of the B’gosh Jeanius Campign.

All denim donated from July 28 through September 16, 2015, will be delivered to local children in need through K.I.D.S./Fashion Delivers, while cash donations will be dispersed to local DonorsChoose.org. Plus The Carters Charitable foundation will match all cash donations up to $50,000 and all denim donations with a new item of clothing. You can help too by simply donating a pair of new jeans or cash donation at the register of your store.

I really enjoyed the style selections for both boys and girls clothes at OshKosh. I know I can count on OshKosh B’gosh for all the latest trends. My daughter loved all the glittery styles- especially the moto jacket, while my son thought the bold, colorful printed tees were so cool. They even have styles that glow! While the new black, white and indigo collection are so chic.was beautiful too.

Having a sherpa lined sweatshirt for fall is a must! We loved the color combinations that OshKosh offers, while I love how well they wash and my son loves how soft and comfortable they are. Perfect for the chilly fall mornings waiting for the bus. Win-win!

To make back to school shopping a little easier on the pocketbook, I have a special 25% off coupon to use for stocking up on sparkly leggings, B’gosh jeans, bold graphic shirts, super cool moto jackets, sweatshirts and more! But act fast it expires on September 30, 2015.

For more information about OshKosh B’gosh products and styles or to find a store nearest you, visit them on the web to make your back to school shopping one that is easy and will last. We had such a hard time choosing what styles we wanted, let me know what you picked!

What is Stitch Fix and Why You Need To Try It

As you all know I live in the middle of the woods but I like staying stylish, at times this can be hard due to the limited resources available around me. I was told about a company called Stitch Fix where you receive your very own stylist and they send you great things to wear… all packaged in a pretty box and sent to your front door.

What? Come again? This is the best idea ever, I had to try it out myself. I went to they easy to navigate website to check this out for myself. So first you get started with a personal style quiz. They ask you numerous questions and have you look at photos of clothes to see where you tastes lie. The quiz was so much fun!

Next you receive five personalized pieces that were hand picked just for you. During your set-up quiz you can pick items that you do not wish to receive (i.e.: handbags, necklaces, pants) to be sure you will not get these pieces. So when my first box came, my excitement was pretty high. I could not wait to get into this box. So what did I get?

Super cute notes were included with certain pieces with styling suggestions. The next step is to try these pieces on in the comfort of your home and mirror. Try on and discover styles hand-picked just for you including your budget! You keep what you love and send back the rest in a prepaid return envelope.

This really is the most convenient way to shop and stay within a budget. I love that you are introduced to new styles and designers that you may not have looked at before. Stitch Fix is a great option because you decide when and how many boxes you want, whether it be once a month or one every 3 months. You are never obligated to purchase anything. The $20 styling fee is applied to the pieces in the box should you choose to keep a piece.

I can’t wait to go in and schedule another shipment, its like a Christmas present on your front door at any time of the year.
