Nudge your kids with a Nudge Tee that is! So, what has your child accomplished on their own? Brushing their teeth? Making their Bed? Feeding an animal? Reading or writing? Celebrate with them! For $20.00 you can praise their efforts, and by wearing one of these tees they can let everyone else know of their good doings!

Guess what! They have them in adult sizes also! If your husband’s like mine and doesn’t like washing dishes. Get him a shirt that says “I wash dishes”! lol……! I Love You, Honey!

My Review:

Here’s the shirt my daughter received from Nudge Tees.

Granted we are still working on this, but she’s getting better. I would have shown my daughter in her new shirt Nudge Tee shirts as my daughter achieves more accomplishments. I love these shirts and what they do to boost my child ego.

Head over to Nudge Tees and encourage your child!

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas – PeaceLoveMom

Mother’s Day is coming! What a better way to celebrate than to receive a new shirt celebrating motherhood! Head over to PeaceLoveMom and get one today!

They have a variety of shirts and other products, including short and long sleeve shirts, tank tops, even Maternity! In addition, PeaceLoveMom also has accessories and kids and baby items! Can’t find the perfect gift? They also have gift certificates!

I received this burnout short sleeve shirt. Turquoise is shown here.

My Review:

I received a burnout shirt in a mossy color. For those who are not sure what a burnout shirt is. Here’s a picture.

It’s got a worn out, weathered, vintage look to it. You really can’t tell unless you hold the shirt up. If/when you wear a shirt like this you may want to wear a tank underneath to better cover your undergarments. The weathered look makes the shirt very soft and it’s long enough to keep everything covered.

The shirt says “Peace Love Grateful Mom”, which suites me just fine. As I am VERY grateful to be a Mom!

There are wonderful presents for expecting moms or any moms! Don’t forget Mother’s Day is May 13th! Head over to PeaceLoveMom to order today! Happy Mother’s Day!

Fresh Produce Dress Review

Posted by Brande on March 20, 2012
in Children's Clothing, Clothing, Fashion, Products for Mom, Shopping

Just add sandals and your ready for the summer! I was very excited when I found out I was able to review Fresh Produce clothing! I’ve heard many good things about them.

My review is for this Catalina Pintuck Tank Dress. The color of dress in this picture is “Peri”. BUT, there numerous colors to choose from depending on size. Speaking of size – this dress ranges from an XS to XL. According to the Fresh Produce’s site….This dress is 92% rayon & 8% Lycra. The dress has wide straps to hide your unmentionables. The dress is free flowing and is able to accommodate a tank top underneath if desired.

My Review of the Catalina Pintuck Tank Dress:

I got my dress in Oyster, it’s kinda gray – blueish. The instant I put the dress on, it felt like a comfy t-shirt. The material is very soft and free flowing. It’s breathable, not the type of dress that’s not going to stick to you in the hot weather. The dress is perfect for anywhere. If you put on flop-flops your ready for the beach or run errands. If you put on sandals and some jewelry with a shawl, your ready for an evening out. I love it! I plan I buying more pieces from Fresh Produce. Here’s a picture of me in my dress. I didn’t have my photographer or hair & make up crew here today to help me with my picture. Ha…Ha…Ha….

Other Fresh Produce Options:

Fresh Produce also accommodates plus sizes, kids, and they have accessories!

Check out these – Beach Dresses

How about Simple Dresses:

Of course Don’t forget about Casual Fashion…

You’ll also find a variety of tops and bottoms available!

Fresh Produce now ships to over 200 countries!

My Review:

I received the Ceramic Salsa Bowl, “Mexican Spice”, from Mexico. The artist is Javier Servin.

It measures 3.9′ H x 6.7″ W x 4.7″ D. It came with a small tags that says…

“Mexican Spice – Orange Blossoms add a spicy contrast to the turquoise and cobalt blue composition of this salsa bowl. in Javier Servin’s design, the hand painted motifs create raise textures over the bowl’s cool ceramic surface.”

It’s a beautiful bowl and I can’t wait to use it!

I also received a Leather Centerpiece, “Triangular Essence” from Peru. The artist is Johnny Jimenez.

The leather bowl measurements are 2.6″H x 7.9″W x 7.9″ D. The tag that came with this leather bowls says..

“Triangular Essence – Johnny Jimenez captures the artistic essence of geometry in the design of this handsome centerpiece. He tools it of quality leather in a triangular shape featuring shiny iron studs at the center.”

Again, another beautiful piece. My husband has confiscated it for himself to drop his keys and wallet in.

CapSac Review

Posted by Professor on May 23, 2011
in Children's Clothing, Family Stuff, Fashion, Gift Ideas, Girl Stuff

The Cap Sac is essentially a fanny pack for your head! What an innovative idea! We received a cap sac for kids. The hat is 100% nylon with a zipper pocket on the forehead section. My daughter (2 years old) LOVED the product! The color caught her attention as soon as she took it out of the package (bright yellow)! But, the draw was the pocket on the top of the cap where she could stash all kinds of goodies! My daughter is a pack rat and loves to carry around a purse with toys and crayons inside, so this was perfect. There really were no downsides to the product in my daughter’s eyes. As a mother I would have personally picked a different color, as the yellow is very bright. I do like that the cap has a brim to shield delicate eyes from the sun. However, I would have liked the product to provide some UV protection, as this is normally the type of headgear I buy for my children…but if UV protection on headgear does not matter then this is great sun protection for your family! You can view all the cool caps available for kids at http://www.capsackids.com/.

There is also a line of hats and t-shirts for adults. Check them out here: http://www.cap-sac.com.

Costume Discounters Review

Posted by Brande on March 18, 2011
in Children's Clothing, Family Stuff, Fashion, Seasonal Stuff, Shopping

Have your kids picked out their Halloween costume yet? No!? Halloween is only 7 months away! Well, let Costume Discounters help out the whole family! They have an extensive collection of costumes, including Easter, mascots, infants, and plus size.

My Review:

I received a Girls XS (3T-4T) Deluxe Toddler Alice in Wonderland costume for my daughter.

The deluxe costume comes with dress with attached pinafore, ruffle trim petticoat, and headband with a teal blue bow. The dress is 100% Polyester in a beautiful teal blue color. The attached pinafore has a silver edged ruffle with a lovely picture of Alice holding a cup of tea on one side and glittery tea cups on the other. The bow has a plastic piece in the center with a picture of Alice on it. The petticoat that goes under the dress is 100% Olefin. The dress and petticoat both have velcro closures. The headband is plastic, but has a good strectch that seems like it won’t break easily. The entire outfit needs to be hand washed separately in cold water, line dried, and cool iron (if needed).

We are heading to see a certain mouseland this year. This costume will be perfect for our trip. If you’ve been down there in the past few years you’ll notice the little girls in their princess outfits. Those outfits in the parks are VERY expensive. My advice is to buy your princess, fairy, or pirate outfit from Costume Discounters before you head out the door on vacation. Here’s a link to the princess costumes.

These opinions are my own.

Editor’s Note: We do not endorse all of the costumes found on this site to be family-friendly.
