Well That's Helpful

My friend and neighbor "K" alerted me to this interesting product. Aromaflage-it's perfume for repelling bugs. We are always on the hunt for bug sprays, and while sometimes the bugs are so bad we would like to spray something that makes us glow from it's strength, it's not good for you! This comes in a larger bottle, but I liked the idea of the purse spray. Bug defending on the go! $30


They had me at blister tab! These socks are from Bombas, and they are made for your athletic endeavors. Available in different lengths and colors. I like the ankle. $9

Where have you been all my life? That was my first thought about the Handbag Handcuff. I am so annoyed when my pocketbook slides off the seat onto the floor. Could I zip it up and then sit it there? Sure. Rest assured when I forget to, I'll spend several minutes collecting my belongings from my purse. This comes in several different colors-I like the pink, of course. Boy would this make me happy. $42

Guy Code

Need a candle with a manly scent? Try the New Mitt scented candle from Man Cans-$9.50. It's a good compromise-new baseball mitt scent is much better than funk!
Here's a great gift for the traveling man. A Skin Care Kit from Ursa Major. This kit includes: Body Wash, Shave Cream, Body Balm and Face Wipes in a can. $40 TSA Approved.

Guys, if you have a beard, for goodness sakes, keep it clean and tidy. There's nothing worse than a beard with gunk in it! Grab the Extra Conditioning Beard Duo from Bluebeards Original. $42 Included: Beard Wash and Beard Saver.

At The Beach

Just got back from a great visit to Florida to see family. It got me thinking about things that would make a day at the beach even better-if that's possible. Much better than a day at the office.

The Sun Friend Monitor tells you when you've been in the sun too long. It lets you know when it's time to go inside, put more sunscreen on, etc. I think this is a great idea. Especially for kids. It's pretty amazing how sun doesn't show up until it's too late and you've gotten too much. $49.99 at Sun friend


I really should have gotten one of these drink spikes for the trip. How cute are these? And so helpful. Find this one at SimpleandSassyGifts on Etsy. $11

Spend a ton of money on those highlights at the salon? Yeah, me too. Seems like a good idea to try and protect them, so you can get your money's worth! The Pre-Soleil Mist from Fekkai has UV filters and adds shine and softness to give your hair a fighting chance. Available for 15.99 here.

Monday Again?

Well, there's only one thing you can do about a Monday-well, besides staying in bed until Tuesday. Let's talk about some sunshiney fun gifts!

This is what we all need at work on Monday morning-a Jumbo Confetti Balloon. At least there would be something to look forward to. This would be great for your next birthday party or celebration. Messy perhaps, but fun just the same. Find it at Dabney Lee for $16.


I love these cups with the tops and straws. I have cats that think it's a great idea to dip their paws in a drink and groom themselves-ugh. These cups are perfect and keep my drink safe. This Skinny tumbler features a pineapple and your monogram. Great gift for bridesmaids, bride or anyone you know on the go! Find it at The Preppy Polka Dot. $16.50

Be good to have a passport to leave the country before work on Monday, right? Well, a gal can dream. The Ditsy Passport Cover from Flight 001 is just the perfect accessory for that trip abroad. $20

Today is my mom's birthday! Wishing her a great year filled with lots of love and laughter.

My Bag Wishlist

The Kindle/EReader sling bag from ElisaLou is perfect for toting! I need this as I take my Kindle everywhere. It fits in my purse, but it really should have it's own space-don't you think? $40

This makeup bag combines two of my favorite things-Chevron Patterns and the color lime! Madimaydesign offers this bag that you can customize. Choose from a canvas lining ($18.95) or a waterproof lining ($20.95) and choose your favorite zipper color!

I love weekender bags as I like to visit my mom for the weekend as often as I can. I don't need a huge bag, and a tote bag is too small. The weekender is perfect-especially this really cute Gray Polka Dot and Teal bag from SeptemberSkye. $58

Gifts For The Clean Freak, Germaphobe, Etc.

My husband says I'm a Germaphobe, I say, I have a healthy respect for germs. There's nothing wrong with trying to protect yourself, is there? Even though I am constantly made fun of, but oh well. Here are some gift ideas:




Mrs. Meyers products are some of my favorites. From laundry detergent to all purpose cleaner, you can't go wrong. For a holiday pick me up, grab one of these gift sets in Iowa Pine, Cranberry or Orange Clove. $12.99-includes: Hand Soap, Liquid Dish Soap and Countertop Spray.


This cute little owl sanitizes your toothbrush in just 7 minutes! The owl may be more for a child, but I love owls, so this one is on my wishlist! $29.95 at Walgreens.


The Sweet Tea caught my eye, and I had to check out the website! Roux Maison offers a cool travel bottle bundle (which is perfect for finding your favorite scent) including:

1 each of Essential Detergent Fragrance-Free, Ambrosia & Sweet Tea (1oz)
1 Delicate Detergent - Fragrance-Free (1oz)
1 Swimwear Detergent (1oz)

1 Stain Remover (1oz)

Try it out and pick your favorite: $23.99

All Bags Big & Small

Small: The Big Dot Cosmetic Bag from Basement Bags can be personalized and is available in several cute color combos! $14


Medium: The Owl Tote from Sloane Ranger is too cute and reminds me of Spring. Check out the rest of their collection. $46




Large: I have a confession to make. I used to dislike Le Sport Sac. My Granny used to carry this pocketbook made by them and would carry nothing else. I don't know what I had against said pocketbook, it just irked me. Recently, on our trip to Las Vegas, we went into a LeSportSac store, fell in love with their prints and now I am 100% a fan. This Garden Pals Large Leisure Bag is perfect for a weekend getaway. If my Granny is any indication, these bags will last FOREVER as hers did, so give them another look! $158
