I participated in an Influencer Program on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Carter’s. I received a gift card to facilitate my shopping trip and to thank me for participating A few days ago, I got to go on a bit of a shopping spree at Carter’s. Carter’s is a well-known name in children’s clothing. Their sizes run from newborn – 7 & they make it super easy to put together cute outfits for all occasions. There is a Carter’s store right nearby my house, so I do go in fairly often if I’m able to get out to the outlet mall. They usually are always running some sort of sale depending on what time of the year it is. I normally try to stock up on t-shirts since that is what my daughter wears the most through the year. Plus, all the clothing always seems to switch over to long-sleeves once summer is over & it never really gets cold enough here to need them (it’s Texas after all!). This year, however, I needed to find quite a bit of clothes since my daughter hit a bit of a ...

Product Review – My Hikes
A few days ago, I received a pair of My Hikes. My Hikes are clips that attach to the bottoms of your child’s pants to keep them rolled up if they are too long or drag the floor. They are available in several designs. I received a pair with butterflies on them (my daughter picked them out). The clips are clear except for the design on the tops, so they aren’t easily noticeable. To use, first fold up the pant cuffs the way you want them. Slide one of the clips on, with the rounded design in front (on top of the pants) and the larger back part underneath the cuff. Then press the round design part down until you hear a click. The clips will stay in place until you take them off. I used them on a pair of my daughters longer jeans, and they stayed on all day without sliding or falling off…and that was with her running around and playing outside. She loves them and has been using them on her stretch pants too. Overall, My Hikes are great, and would make a great stocking stuffer ...
Product Review — PrivateIslandParty.com
Last month, I was asked to take a look at PrivateIslandParty.com & pick out a few accessories to try out. The site offers an assortment of party supplies, novelty items, and accessories. Many of the items are available in bulk, like hats, wigs & capes. After looking through everything, I picked out a black cape, fishnet gloves, and a child’s superhero cape. After placing my order with the site rep, she called me to let me know that the superhero cape was out of stock and that they were going to send me out a new one. I was told that the items were being shipped that day, but after three weeks I still hadn’t received them. I found out through Tomoson that the rep was no longer with the company and that a replacement shipment was being sent out. I received everything three days later. The black cape was nice, and you can leave the color down or flip it up. The gloves fit perfectly and just about reach my elbow. I plan of using them as part of a Rocky Horror ...
Product Review — BuyCostumes.com
A few weeks back, I was asked to check out BuyCostumes.com & pick out a costume. BuyCostumes.com has a large variety costumes all year long, as well as tons of accessories. They also carry party supplies & pet costumes too. Since I had already picked out a Halloween costume already, I let my husband look through and see what he liked. The site is very easy to navigate & you can easily search by costume type, gender, size, price & more. They also have sections of related costumes, like Star Wars, Renaissance & TV characters. On the group pages, you can see both adult and children’s costumes along with all the suggested accessories. My husband & I literally went through the entire site, taking him about two days. He eventually went with the Tavern Man costume after I threatened him with a Hawkeye costume if he didn’t pick something. The costume consists of two pieces: a lace-up renaissance shirt and pants with laces to tie up the legs. We received ...
Bumbums & Baubles Review & Giveaway [ENDED]
Last week, I was asked to check out Bumbums & Baubles new Lily Mary Jane shoes. Bumbums & Baubles sell girls shoes that can be customized with removable baubles, which range from bows to flowers. The baubles attach to the shoes by either the strap on the end of the shoe or by the ankle strap. My daughter picked out the Pink Sparkle. The shoes look very cute on the site, but are absolutely adorable when you receive them. They are a princess pink with sparkles on the toes. They come with matching bow baubles already attached. I also received a pair of ballerina baubles too. They were very easy to attach since all you have to do is slide them on to the strap. My daughter went totally gaga over them. She calls them her ‘princess’ shoes and she would not take them off for anything. I had to wait until she dozed off during her nap to get them off. The shoes were a little snug on her, but that is due to the fact that she’s just about ready for a size 9. Overall, I ...
Product Review — Greek & Roman Costumes @ Wholesale Halloween Costumes
Last week, I got to pick out a Halloween costume from Wholesale Halloween Costumes. Wholesale Halloween Costumes offers a wide variety of the hottest costumes & accessories at discount prices. Since having my daughter, I’ve had a hard time finding larger size costumes that look good. However, this site has a bunch of them. I ended up checking out the Greek & Roman costumes, where I found the Women Plus Size Olympic Goddess Costume. It’s the classic Roman Goddess costume, in an off white/yellow color. It comes in several sizes, up to 3X. The site also has a variety of wigs and accessories to go along with it. I ended up ordering a pair of sandals & circlet (the shoes & circlet have not arrived at the time of writing) to go along with it. I also ordered an Athena wig. The costume dress arrived within a week, and I love the way it looks. The color is perfect and it fits well. It really looks like something out of an old gladiator movie. The bottom half is a ...
