Fashom is a fun styling service for the budget conscious

My First Fashom Box — Plus Get $10 Off Plus No Styling Fee

By

Thanks to Fashom for sponsoring this post. I was provided free product in exchange for my honest review. This post contains affiliate links. I recently tried the new fashion styling service, Fashom. With Fashom, you can get personally designed fashions delivered right to your door. I don't always have time to shop, so I decided to give this fun and affordable service a try. I've long been a fan of Stitch Fix, a popular fashion styling service, so I was eager to see how the two services compare.  Interested in giving Fashom a try?

the new black and brown Granite 25 backpack by American Shield

My Newest Go-To Bag for Day and Overnight Trips

By

Thanks to American Shield for sponsoring this review. I received a free Granite 25 backpack in exchange for my honest opinion. I recently celebrated a birthday in January. My family's tradition is to go away for a long weekend to celebrate. We usually pick a cute town within a few hours of our New Jersey home to visit. We shop, eat some good food and enjoy the hotel's pool. I love exploring new places and seeing new scenery, even if it's just a few hours from our house. When we go, I like to bring a small but roomy bag to pack my clothes for a night or two. I also like to bring my laptop, Continue reading...

Friday Five – Fall Fun in New Jersey

By

This post contains affiliate links. Today I’m sharing my “Friday Five” post, when I share 5 things that I’ve been up to lately. Today was kind of a low key week for me, but I was able to squeeze in some fun moments! Sunflowers A farm near my house - Holland Ridge Farms  - features a sunflower festival in the fall. I’ve been wanting to go with my family, but we’ve been so busy on the weekends. So on Monday I headed out to the farm on my own to take a look. The views were so pretty - there were rows and rows of sunflowers! I enjoyed walking through the rows taking photos! The farm Continue reading...

May Stitch Fix box reveal

May Stitch Fix Box Reveal

By

Just yesterday I received my May Stitch Fix box. I was excited to open it! I had ordered an April Stitch Fix box, but upon returning everything in my box, Stitch Fix offered to waive the styling fee for a new box. (The fee is $20, and is waived if you purchase an item from the box). So I decided to give Stitch Fix another go! I loved everything in my first Stitch Fix Box in November 2015, so I was hoping I'd be happy with my new Stitch Fix box. Stitch Fix is a great service for non shoppers like me. You fill out a profile and describe your fashion needs and likes, and they Continue reading...

April 2017 Stitch Fix box review

April Stitch Fix Reveal

By

I tried out Stitch Fix, a fashion subscription service where clothing hand-picked for you is mailed to your door, in November 2015. I loved everything, and kept all five items in my box. (You get a 25% discount on your picks if you purchase all five items.) Making returns is easy -- just return them in the United States Postal Service postage-paid envelope provided by Stitch Fix. This coming spring and summer, there are two important events that I need clothing for. In June, my twin daughters are graduating from middle school. I'd love to have a nice outfit to wear to their graduation Continue reading...

A Sunny Sunday & April Fashion

By

A week ago Sunday, my husband had to work and my one of my two daughters had a group mathematics project to work on with her classmates. So my other daughter and I walked into town together. Even though we live only about five blocks away from our small town's downtown area, we hardly ever walk into town! It turned out to be a wonderful day. My teenage daughter, who is an amateur photographer, took several photos of me in front of an old vacant rug mill (which once housed a rug company) a few blocks from our house. (There are plans to convert the mill into shops and Continue reading...

Spring FabFitFun subscription box

Spring FabFit Fun Box Reveal & Giveaway

Engravable wood JORD watches make a wonderful holiday gift

A Christmas Engraved Gift & Watch Giveaway

By

Thanks to JORD for sponsoring this post. I received a JORD watch in exchange for my completely honest review. All opinions expressed in this post are 100% my own. When my husband and I started dating some 25-plus years ago, most people wore watches. We both still enjoy wearing watches. For me, a watch is a practical item, as well as a piece of jewelry. So, for the holidays, a well-made watch makes a perfect gift for me to put under the tree for my spouse. See the bottom of this post for a giveaway from JORD wooden watches! For the holidays, I had a beautiful JORD Frankie Dark Continue reading...

Now that fall is here, I'm looking forward to wearing scarves again.  I adore scarves. I love them so much that I have a whole bin in my bookcase-turned-closet dedicated just to scarves.  I shouldn't buy any more scarves, but I am always on the lookout for more! I'm in love with this season's blanket scarves and the return of plaid scarves, so I will probably be adding more scarves to my collection this fall. These Continue reading...
