Loving Moments by Leading Lady Review and Giveaway

Faith and Family Reviews received the following product in exchange for writing a review. While we consider it a privilege to receive products to review, our reviews are our honest opinion and thoughts of the product.

Going bra shopping has never been one of my favorite things to do. Normally I have to buy them at stores I don’t shop at on a regular basis so I have to make a special trip all the way there. I’m kind of picky when it comes to bras, so after trying them on in the store, I always go home and try them on again to make sure I like them. More often than not, I have to return one or two of them because they felt different when I tried them on at home. Then I have to make another trip back to the store to return them, and restart the process. Needless to say, I only bra shop once or twice a year. When I received the opportunity to review a nursing bra sold exclusively at Wal-Mart I was delighted. How convenient to buy bras at Wal-Mart when I’m already shopping there at least once a week.

Loving Moments by Leading Lady products include nursing bras for everyday, active, sleep and leisure. They also offer nursing camis as well. Normally I wear bras that have an underwire, so I was anxious to try a couple without. The first one I tried was the Cotton Wirefree Nursing Bra that is sold as a 2-pack. In terms of style, they were absolutely adorable! You can choose either black, black dot, pink, or pink dot and then they come with another white bra. Each has strech lace lining at the top that really flatters the chest and is ultra soft. It also gives a lot so you can easily move in it. I like that the cups are seamless so you don’t see any lines through your outerwear and they don’t irritate the skin. The neck line is low enough that you can still wear V-Neck shirts while wearing them. As a nursing bra it was very easy to clasp and unclasp with one hand. Nursing pads fit very easily inside as well. This bra gave so much support, I could not even tell it didn’t have an underwire. Usually by the end of the day I cannot wait to take my bra off and “relax.” I honestly didn’t feel like that wearing this bra. It was so soft and not confining. I definitely recommend this bra to nursing moms!

The other bra I had the chance to try was their Active Wirefree Nursing Bra. I will be honest. I never knew nursing “sports bras” existed. I always just wore regular sports bras when I was nursing and then it was just a pain in the butt when it came time to nurse. This bra was amazing! It was so soft and comfortable to wear. I loved that the shoulder straps were padded and a little wider to help support when I went for my walks and light jogs. This nursing bra was also easy to clasp and unclasp using only one hand and nursing pads fit in easily. I could not believe how comfortable it was for walking and for doing the day to day jobs around the house. I highley recommend this bra as well.

Loving Moments by Leading Lady nursing bras are absolute great products for nursing moms. They are also extremely affordable and conveniently sold exclusively at Wal-Mart and walmart.com. Their nursing bras are available in a variety of colors, styles, and sizies. I plan on buying more and trying their nursing camis when they debut this month. Loving Moments also created a website for new moms. From product information to sizing assistance and breastfeeding tips, www.LovingMomentsBra.com is the destination for new and expecting moms!

PinkBlush Maternity Review and Giveaway

Posted by 278Wife on April 12, 2013
in Clothing, Faith and Family Reviews Friday Giveaway, Fashion, Giveaways, Reviews

Finding maternity clothes is never an easy task. Some of the major retailers carry them, but it’s usually one very small rack with very few choices. While their clothes fit, they don’t necessarily accentuate your body in the right places. PinkBlush Maternity, on the other hand, knows exactly how to make you look and feel good in their very fashionable maternity clothes. Since they sell exclusively online, their prices are very affordable. PinkBlush Maternity is constantly changing their inventory to keep up with the everchanging styles.

I was lucky enough to receive their Pale Pink Chiffon Cap Sleeve Maternity Top days before my “Sprinkle” party. When I opened it up, I thought, wow, am I going to look cute in this! I tried it on immediately and was blown away by how soft the material was. The bust part fit perfectly and did not tug or pull. It’s textured material made me feel very feminine. The cap sleeves were a little tight at first, but once I wore it to my party they loosened up just a bit. The pink chiffon on the bottom had an underlay of pink silk-like material. I was concerned that it might make me feel too big, but I think it really hugged in all of the right places. It was a little longer than I had expected, but when I paired it with leggings, I think it worked perfectly. The top was extremely breathable and airy. I could not believe how comfortable I felt all day. The top just flowed with my body and did not feel confining or tight in any way. I felt so fashionable wearing it. I cannot tell you how many compliments I received the day of my party asking me where I bought my top. Two of my good friends are also pregnant so I passed their website onto them. I’ve worn the top a few times after my party as well, and I still get huge compliments on how adorable the top and my belly is. The top is machine washable, but I hung it to dry. Since the material is so lightweight, it dried in less than an hour.

PinkBlush Maternity offers tops, bottoms, and dresses from small to extra large. They even have a clearance section with really cute products at extremely low prices. I wish I would have known about them in the beginning of my pregnancy. They even offer $5 flat rate shipping or free shipping if your order is over $50. Go to their website and sign up with your e-mail to receive exclusive coupons and offers. PinkBlush Maternity is the place to go for fashionable, comfortable, and affordable maternity clothes. I will be telling all of my preggo friends this is the place to shop!

Tandem Review

Posted by 278Wife on April 6, 2013
in Fashion, Reviews, Techie Stuff, Technology/Electronics

I am always trying to stay current with the new fashions, especially when it comes to accessories. As crazy as it sounds, my cell phone has now become an accessory that expresses who I am. Normally I buy a pink case to cover my iPhone since pink is by far my favorite color. When I heard about a phone case that had images from top photographers of the world it immediately piqued my interest! Tandem is a company that sells high quality prints and iPhone cases at quality prices. They offer five different collections of photos to choose from: Underwater Dogs & Pets, America’s National Parks, Abstract, Nature, and Urban Environments. The images are all from the world’s top photographers.

Tandem offers three different styles of cases, the Barely There, Vibe, and Tough. I was able to try the Tough case for an iPhone 4 in the Paradise image. When I took it out of the package I immediately was drawn to the vibrant colors and how perfect the image looked. It instantly relaxed me and made me want to go to the beach. It had a very smooth feel to it and I was very anxious to try it on my phone. The case I currently have is three pieces and a pain in the butt to take on and off. The Tandem Tough case slipped on in seconds. I loved how easy it was to put on as well to take off. I like to clean my phone, so being able to quickly remove the case was a huge plus to me! The case had two pieces; a black flexible rubber to cover the phone and the hard case to protect the phone. The rubber piece seemed a little too stretchy, mostly on the bottom. I think if it was a little stiffer it would have fit nicer. Once the case was on, I held it up to my ear and loved how it felt. It was very easy to hold and felt good in my hand. It easily fit all of my chargers, adapters, and charging docks. The Tandem case was extremely durable. My toddler likes to play games on it and he definitely dropped it a few times, and the case didn’t crack, chip, or move. The case was a little heavier than my other one, but I feel it is much stronger and more durable.

Overall I was very impressed with the Tandem case. With so many beautiful images to choose from, you could change your case daily to go with your mood! Tandem offers a 90-day Limited Warranty on all of their products. Check out their website to see all of their amazingly brilliant images. They are truly breathtaking!

BellaVita iPhone Wristlet

Posted by html404 on February 8, 2013
in Fashion, Gift Ideas, Products for Mom, Reviews

I’m getting tired of lugging my pocketbook around everywhere I go and have been looking for a wristlet to carry my iPhone, license, and a few cards around. Thankfully, BellaVita iPhone Wristlet came along!

These sleek leather wristlets are perfect for a person that is always on the go. No more sore back with these BellaVita wristlets. They are light weight and are approximately 4 3/4 inches long and 2 3/4 inches wide. So they are small and fit in a pocket perfectly! There is a snap closure to keep your cards and phone safe. There are 2 pocket card holders along with a pocket on the inside middle part. The phone is still very functional in the wristlet, including a hole where the camera is! The lobster claw clasp is sturdy for the wrist loop part.

The BellaVitaiPhone Wristlet is available in many colors for iPhone 4/4S and they also have some available for iPhone 5!

I received the BellaVita Cioccolato iPhone 4/4s model. It’s a beautiful chocolate color, the wallet is very soft, ít’s great that my phone is still very functional. I don’t need to take it out of the wristlet to text or take a picture. The snap closure is a plus, you don’t want those credit cards next to a magnet.

Great present for a birthday or Mother’s Day!

iPad and Kindle Case Review

Posted by Brande on February 5, 2013
in Fashion, Technology/Electronics, Uncategorized

I don’t know about you but I enjoy a little color and design in my life. Christian Inspirations’s iPad and Kindle Cases are beautiful and inspirational.

Here ‘s the iPad Case in Spice Bouquet has a magnetic closure.

Flip open the flower side and the pattern continues on the inside.

Then again to reveal the entire case. Perfect for on the go! A beautiful note pad and pen are inside.

Here is the notepad with an inspirational note (Spice Bouquet is from John 3:16)

There are 4 elastic holders in each corner to hold your iPad securely in place. Christian Inspirations Cases get even better! They not only lay flat, you can prop them up to watch a movie on your iPad.

Here it is full standing and the next photo will show it at a lower angle.

These angles are great for when you don’t have a desk.

Case Sizes are –

iPad – 10 3/8″ x 8 3/8″ x1 1/4″

Kindle – 7.5″ x 5.75″ x 1″

In addition to Spice Bouquet there are 5 more designs to choose from.

Marche De Fleurs, Boutique De Luxe, Birds on a Wire, Peacock Fantasy, & The Librarian.

You can find these beautiful cases for your iPad and Kindle on tabletcovershop.com or Amazon.

I had one of those black cases for my IPad, not anymore! I love the vibrant orange color of the Spice Bouquet. I take my iPad with me to a lot of places, having a pen and paper close by is a super plus. I’m no longer digging in my purse for a tiny ripped up piece of paper and a pen. It’s all right there.

Looking for a gift? Mother’s Day is coming!

Sears #styleSURPRISE

Posted by html404 on December 11, 2012
in Fashion, Holidays, Seasonal Stuff, Shopping

Over the years Sears has been a trusted brand in my life. Guess I learned that from my mother, as well as my mother-in-law as they shopped at Sears…and still do. As most of you know, Sears provides everything from appliances and apparel to jewelry, electronics and more.

This holiday season Sears is hosting their Holiday #styleSURPRISE Sweepstakes where entrants can enter to win $5K worth of SYW points. I entered. It’s very easy, especially if you already have an account. Just sign in or sign up and follow the prompts at the link I just provided.

I think if I won the Holiday #styleSURPRISE I would update my wardrobe, costume jewelry and even buy my family some goodies. Below I’ve shared a little bit of my style.

My Style

At Sears.com I found a pretty Maxi dress that I like, except for the low neckline, love the empire-like waistline though. I usually have to buy petite sizes because I am so short and regular size/length dresses are too long.

Fashion Accessories

I like pretty simple and practical when it comes fashion accessories. Here are a few pieces of jewelry that appealed to my eye and no I don’t think either of them go with the dress above:

You can visit Sears for more everyday fashion inspiration.

Imagine if you won $5k worth of SYW points? What would you buy? Leave me a comment.

This is a sponsored post, I am a Sears blogger, though all opinions are my own.

TopFloor’s Louboutin Promotion & Giveaway

Posted by html404 on September 6, 2012
in Fashion, Giveaways, Products for Mom

My oldest daughter is a huge shoe person. She LOVES shoes. I am rather boring and practical. I like to have brown shoes that go with everything and I don’t have to have white shoes for spring and summer and black for fall and winter. She, on the other hand, loves to have wedges, heels and flats galore. She gets excited about styles, colors and sparkles. I think she takes after my husband because when we first got married he had a ton of shoes! He’s not like that now but as a single guy he must have liked spending money on shoes, mostly athletic ones. Regardless of where you are at on the shoe spectrum, I am sure you can appreciate Louboutin. Even I do. They are so pretty.

UV Skinz Review & Giveaway!

Posted by Brande on August 3, 2012
in Baby Products, Children's Clothing, Fashion, Fun Stuff, Gift Ideas, Girl Stuff, Giveaways, Health, Kids Stuff, Reviews, Safety

It’s summer time which means most people will be spending lots of time outdoors! With the sun being so harmful, sunscreen isn’t enough! UV Skinz has a wonderful line of 50+ UV sun protection clothing for everyone in the family! This company is approved by the Melanoma International Foundation as well as an iParenting Media Award Winner!

Kids sizes range from 6 months to 14 and adult sizes go up to a size 4 XL! UV Skinz carries shirts (long and short sleeve), hats, shorts, gloves/sleeves, shades, and sun screen! It’s a one stop shop for sun-protective clothing for the entire family!

My UV Skinz Review:

My daughter received the Pink Mermaids sunwear set, which included a reversible hat, short sleeve swim shirt, and shorts.

This picture is with the Mermaid side of the hat.

This picture is the reverse side of the hat which is pink.

I have a very active, wiggly 3 year old. Sometimes trying to put sun screen on her is like trying to put it on a cat! I always miss a spot, however, with her new outfit I can worry less. The shirt covers her arms to her elbows and the hat is wide brimmed for fun at the beach. It’s light weight and doesn’t make her hot. I love the modesty of the entire outfit. It’s very age appropriate and fun!

It also washed up nicely! Gentle wash and drip dry.

UV Skins has my vote for UV-protective clothing! Check out their website to buy yours today! You can also find them on Facebook and/or Twitter.

Special Offer: BLOGS15 code that you can use for a 15% discount on UV Skinz’s site.

Kidorable “Lucky Cat” Backpack

Posted by Professor on May 22, 2012
in Children's Clothing, Family Stuff, Fashion, Fun Stuff, Kids Toys, Reviews

Kidorable delights both children and the adults who love them by transforming everyday, functional kids accessories into objects that excite their imaginations and enrich their lives at play.

From rainwear to backpacks to knitwear and towels, Kidorable speaks to the precious spirit of childhood.

OUR REVIEW:

We were very excited to have the opportunity to review an item from Kidorable’s backpack collection. We were able to choose which backpack to review and my daughter chose the “Lucky Cat” backpack! When we received the product both my daughter (3 years old) and myself were elated with the product. My daughter loved the whimsical kitty design on the front of the backpack as well as the little mouse zipper pull! I loved that the backpack is made of sturdy PVC material that can withstand a toddler’s wear and tear. The backpack is the perfect size for my 3 year old…the dimensions are roughly 10”x8”x6” so the size is great for little shoulders! I also like that it has both and inside and outside pocket for children to stash their items! ”

I do have to say that there are so many cute backpacks to choose from that I had a hard time deciding which one to review…so I did actually pull my 3 year old to the computer and let her “shop” for the one she liked. The online photos and dimensions were great! We were not surprised with any difference in the product than what is listed on the website…everything is just as described! This was great! The product also cam very quickly (to my surprise) and was packaged neatly in a box…this was great because too many times I get items mailed in an envelope that arrive misshapen because the bubble mailer was smashed and mishandled! Kudos Kidorable for great packaging and delivery!

Thank you KIDORABLE for another great collection!

From May 23 through May 31, you can purchase your own backpacks for 20% off by using code BACKPACK99 at checkout on www.kidorable.com.
