Blacksmith - Labs BARRETT FOR APPLE IPHONE 5/5S - BLACK LEATHER #review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

I got this awesome leather case for iphone to review. Even the box screams luxurious. Here is a little about the product.


BARRETT COLLECTION


The Blacksmith-Labs BARRETT was designed with traditions in mind, with a classic look that never goes out of style. The design goal is very simple: to create an elegant yet functional holster with clean lines. The result is a perfectly proportioned holster in our premium leather. Each piece of our leather has its own special touch and unique texture. To further enhance the classical elegant design, every BARRETT is finished with ultra fine stitching to give an unmistaken look and feel of refinement. Combined with our Blacksmith-Labs Signature Series metal belt clip, the BARRETT is the perfect companion of your bespoke outfits to complement your everyday life.
The first thing you notice when you pick up the Barrett is the texture. Its made from soft pliant leather that feels amazing when you touch it. I don't think I have ever seen leather like this in the past. The second thing you notice is the smell of the leather. I have never really known what people meant by loving the smell of leather; most leather I had smelled didn't appeal to me, but this smells amazing. It makes me think of new things and new beginnings.

The only thing I would wish to change on this case would be the clasp. To me if I was wearing this on my hip I think this would be difficult to close.  You have to push the leather flap over the metal stud until it goes through the hole on the flap. I would like to see this with a magnetic enclosure instead just for convenience sake. Although the current enclosure would make it more difficult for someone to steal your phone without you noticing unlike the magnetic clip.

This case is great for those that don't use otterbox and just toss it in their purse (like a lot of my co workers.) Please if you are going to toss your iphone in your bag with screen protector or case on it please get something like this to slip your phone in first to protect your investment. It makes me cringe when people just toss it in carelessly. 

I love the metal belt clip! I am a sucker for brushed metal and love that its the same shape as the logo. You can feel the strength of the clip when you open it. Have no fear when this is clipped to you its not going to go anywhere. I used to have a case that I got at an autoparts store that slipped over and didn't actually clip and if I was to lean too far one way it would fall off. Scared me quite a few times but not with this!

These retail for $79.95 and are worth every penny.

Order them at:
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

The Sparkle Egg #giveaway

The Sparkle Egg Giveaway Hosted by Pea of Sweetness

Sponsored by Ideals Books

Co-Hosted by Deals of Sweetness

The Sparkle Egg 
 Easter is coming, and Sam loves Easter! But this year, he is upset about a lie he told his parents. Even though he apologized and they forgave him, Sam can't shake the feeling that he is a bad kid for what he did. Meanwhile, his parents help him make a special Easter craft called a Sparkle Egg. His mom tells him to write anything he feels sorry about or ashamed of on a piece of paper and put it inside his Sparkle Egg. On Easter morning, when he opens his Sparkle Egg expecting a surprise, Sam finds that it is empty! His parents explain that because Jesus died and rose again, we are forgiven. Like the tomb that first Easter Day, Sam’s egg is empty—and Sam’s wrongdoing is completely forgiven. Once he accepts this forgiveness fully, Sam realizes a truth: we can sparkle and shine with God’s light when we let God’s gift of grace into our hearts. This touching story will strike a deep chord with readers of all ages, and the Sparkle Egg tradition will help readers and their families grasp the totality of God’s perfect grace. Emilee at Pea of Sweetness loves resources that help children focus on the true reason we celebrate Easter. See what her family thought in their review of The Sparkle Egg.

I recently got the chance to work with PeachSkinSheets.com and was super excited. They have many colors to choose from and it was a hard decision to make. We went with MIDNIGHT BLACK in a queen size.  Our bed is a bit of a custom build and a lot of sheets aren't big enough. Not so with these sheets they went across the entire bed and down the sides just short of the floor.

Jammy Jams - "Eighties Babies: Awesome '80s Go Lullaby"

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.



I love the 80's and this is something I would have loved to have as a child. I was born in 1988 so my memories of the 80's are non existent but I love music from the 80's. I was excited when I got the chance to review this cd. I was thinking it was going to be singing along with the music but when I hit play some of my favorite 80's songs came out in soothing sounds of piano and more. I listened to the cd from beginning to end and I can tell you it even had me ready to go to sleep. This is something I would love to upload to my ipad and then play over my bluetooth speaker as I fall asleep.

How to make a fashion book with Blurb




Blurb is a cool company that lets you make books about anything that interests you. And if you’re interested in fashion and style—and love to show it off—making a book of your personal fashion is a fantastic way to capture your sartorial genius for all time. Whether you want it just for yourself, so you can look through your greatest hits, or you’re a bit of an Internet fashionista who wants to make a book to sell, you’ll find these tips pretty helpful:

1. It’s all about lighting. To make your fashion really pop, choose natural light or studio light with a soft box (you can even make one from a lamp and last season’s white t-shirt). If you’re using a flash, you’ll probably want to bounce it or stick a diffusion filter on it.



2. Make a shot list. This is a critical step, and even more important if you are photographing models. Even if your model is just your best friend who owes you a favor, they’ll appreciate it if you know exactly what you want to shoot. Think about the poses you want to capture, the outfits you want them to wear, and the details that you want to highlight in every shot.

Single Wall Mount Dispenser by ToiletTree Products #review


Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Here is another great product for me. I hate having to try to shake the conditioner bottle to try to figure out what I have left. With this dispenser I can see exactly what is left. I love the easy to use pump and not end up in the shower trying to wash my hair and having no conditioner and soaking the floor trying to get to more. Now I can glance at the dispenser and see what's left before jumping in! This has made life so much simpler and I will be looking into getting a second to be able to use for shampoo.
