Fragrant Jewels: Shipment One

So I decided to try a new Subscription Box... Remember when that was all I did??  I'm sure most of you have heard of the company Fragrant Jewels.  They create candles, bath bombs, and other fun products, all with rings hidden inside!

The first box I received was a present for a friend, and I liked hers so much I decided to try it out as well!  I really wanted a candle though, and sadly this box didn't contain one.  But regardless, this is the Sweet Retreat collection.  The scent is described as "Cool Marine Breeze, Fresh Lavender, and Soothing Chamomile."  It is a bit to floral and fragrant to be especially soothing, but it is very nice and bright for spring.

The first item in the box were mini bath bombs.  I actually prefer this size of bath bombs to the big ones!  I was, however, afraid that since they were mini that this product wouldn't come with a ring, which kind of defeats the purpose of Fragrant "Jewels" doesn't it?  But no worries!  There was one tucked inside the bag!

Aside from the mini bombs, I also got a full sized bomb!  This one has already been used, and it was lovely!  It turned the bath a beautiful lavender color, but didn't dye the bathtub.  My skin was fragrant and soft after the bath, and the ring floated right up to the top!

Finally, I also got a sugar scrub.  Normally in a box you only get two items, but I guess they did three with this to equate the value of a candle.  This scrub also had a ring in it!  The scrub sticks together very well, unlike some sugar scrubs that are difficult to scoop because they fall apart.  It isn't the most abrasive, but it is nice nonetheless!

In case you are wondering, the rings come packaged like this to keep them safe from the water, scrubs, and bombs.  They look a bit like gum ball rings!  The gold slip in there is a code you enter in on the website.  It will tell you the value of the ring, give you reward points to redeem on the website, and enter you to win a $10,000 ring!

And finally, what we have all been waiting for, the rings!  I don't wear silver a lot, but these truly are very pretty rings!  The bands on the left and right are very similar, but they are simple, and exactly what I want in a ring.  I know I won't get as much use out of the purple, but it is very pretty as well!

Overall, I am very happy with the box in retrospect.  Even though I really wanted a candle initially, and I would have preferred gold, getting three rings makes up for it!

Nadine West: Fourth Shipment

So this wasn't the most successful shipment ever, but I still got one nice piece out of it!  And they left me a sweet surprise which I'll tell you about at the end, so I wasn't upset at all! This is actually two items from my shipment!  This outfit contains both the shirt and leggings from this month, and they kind of go together!   Though I really liked the pattern of the leggings, they are much more like tights.  They were totally see through, which made me pretty sad.  If they were marketed as tights then I wouldn't be too disappointed, but these were called Leggings.  They retailed for $14.49, and I didn't keep them. The shirt fit very well and was extremely comfy.  I have been looking for a shirt this color, so I was pretty excited to see it in my bag, even though it is pretty basic.  This shirt also retailed for $14.49, and I did elect to keep it! These are the "Beauty Within" earrings, and I'm actually pretty sure I received

Three Ways to Christmas Shop on the Cheap

Christmas shopping is something a lot of us tend to put off until the last second, and then are scrambling the week before Christmas to buy things just because you feel like you have to.  You end up buying something, at exorbitant obnoxious prices, that you know the person you are buying for won’t even like! I came up with a few ways you can get awesome presents, not have to kill yourself trying to get them at the last minute, and not break the bank... My first suggestion, is to shop in advance!  I know, this seems super simple, but you wouldn't believe the difference it makes to start a couple months in advance, and just buy things you know the person would like as you see them.  This year, I stopped in an antique shop on my way to work one day, just to look around.  I ended up leaving with this gorgeous bowl, mug, and tea set with I am planning to give to family members, and because the place was about to close down, I got them for half off the original price!

So I have been big into working out lately, because who doesn't want to look their very best when vacation time comes! I found this workout calendar on Pinterest so I'm not able to give you the link to the exact website but I thought if you liked it enough you could copy, or print it out. I have been looking for the rest of the months that go with this but so far this is the only one I've found. I am doing it myself and so far its working pretty well, I would love for you to do this with me, just comment below and tell me any of your thoughts about it . Enjoy!! :)
