Nadine West Fifth Shipment

This actually ended up being my final shipment from Nadine West...  I loved the subscription while I had it, but after quitting my job and returning to school I felt the need to cut down on the amount of money I was spending.  I still reccomend this service 100%!

If you are looking into it then it is a clothing subscription service for $9.78 a month.  All of the clothes are under $30, and if you decide to keep anything then the price you paid for shipping goes to the price of the item(s).

This is the Floral Dream dress, featuring my pastel pink hair!  This was a thin jersey material as is typical with most clothing from Nadine West.  To be honest, I really liked the print and fit of this dress, but is was just a bit too tight for regular wear.  I couldn't think of an occasion to wear this to in the near future, so I didn't think I should keep it.  This retailed for $24.99.


This is the chloe top and the Indie Go shorts.  I don't really think they were supposed to go together, but I figured I'd give it a shot!  

The top was very big and loose, which I am usually into, but the arm holes came a bit low for comfort.  I feel as if the straps needed to be taken up, and I don't really want to have to alter clothing from this subscription.  It was cute, and I did consider keeping it, but decided against it because I already have too many tank-tops.  It retailed for $11.49.

The shorts were super cute!  They are soft and comfy, and could be worn out or as lounge shorts.  I really didn't need these, but decided to keep them anyway because I'm a shop-a-holic.  These retailed for $19.99, which is a bit steep for cloth shorts, but I liked them enough I guess!





I think the outfit totally goes together if you hold a puppy though, wouldn't you agree?
Also, why can I never seem to style these outfits with shoes?  I always forget...

These are the Buttoned and Beautiful earrings.  I honestly really liked these and considered keeping them as well.  If I am going to be wearing earrings that dangle, I want them to be subtle like this.  These retailed for $11.99, and though I didn't keep them, I kind of wish I would have!

Finally, this is the Mustache bracelet... Why?  Why is the mustache trend still around?  This was very very bad.  When I first saw it was a bangle I got pretty excited because I thought it would look good with my Alex and Ani bracelets, but then I saw the icon.  This retailed for $11.99 as well, and I couldn't send it back fast enough.


So though I only kept one thing, I honestly loved all of the items aside from the bracelet!  I also shared my bag on Facebook this time, which gave me a $3.00 discount on the clothes I kept, making the shorts only $7.21 above the original price of the bag!

Once again I have to say, this is one of the best subscriptions I've ever tried.  It is super affordable and fun to try and I reccomend it 100%!  The customer service team is the best I've ever seen, offering solutions to problems and discounts when they didn't have to.  They were ready to go above and beyond to keep their customers happy, and that means a lot to me.  Though I am no longer a current subscriber, I plan to re-up in the future when I have enough money to spare!

My Petal Club

A new box!  And a PERIOD subscription box at that!  I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable!  This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50!  And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras.  This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need.  Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did.  It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice!  So I suggest going straight through their website....

My Summer in a Nutshell...

So I know I have been in and out throughout July, and then completely off the face of the Earth for August... Forgive me guys? I knew you would :) In some ways I thought you might need an explanation for where I have been, so here is it! July... So for the first two weeks of July I was recovering from a June (beach and packing the first two weeks, You saw all of this remember? :)  work and Bible School the last two), This was part of our Bile School castle, it was so cool! :)   doing Summer work (sort of not really ;), and working with the children's Librarian which was amazing! :)  We made Dirt Babies!! Aren't they cute??? The next week was consumed by church camp, which I can honestly say was one of the best weeks of my life! We had services every morning and night, and were part of a huge youth choir. It was a wonderful experience to bond with new people, and get closer to the Lord :) Our group was the second bigge...

"Safe Tanning"

Ok... we all know that there is technically no such thing as "Safe Tanning", but there are ways to tan that are safer than others. Here are some tips that will help you get an amazing (and slightly more safe) tan this summer. 1. Exfoliate The key for an amazing tan is to exfoliate your skin! If you don't exfoliate, your tan will end up patchy, you will peel, and will altogether be a very unattractive situation... Try to exfoliate every other day or at least once a week while you are on vacation, and use a hardcore intense exfoliator before you leave and after you get home. And don't forget your lips and face! But remember, to exfoliate your lips and face you will need to find a exfoliator made specifically for each of those areas. 2. Put sun protection Put sunscreen on at least 30 minutes before you head to sun tanning. Some people say at least a minimum af 30 SPF, but personally I use 15. As silly as this sounds, pay attention and read your ...
