EXECUTEES AND CUSTOM MADE SHIRTS GO HAND-IN-HAND

EXECUTEES AND CUSTOM MADE SHIRTS GO HAND-IN-HAND
February 12, 2010 by Shynea
Whenever I get the chance to promote women owned businesses I get really excited. I have found a lot of nice products made entirely by women and they are made of some of the best quality materials around. This is how I felt when I found the company Executees. Owned by Tracy Wright ,she makes some of the best custom, embellished t-shirts that I have seen. A little bit of information about Executees: Executees is the place to shop for premium quality embellished t-shirts, apparel and accessories. Executees uses larger sized Swarovski Crys...

VALENTINES DAY EXTRAVAGANZA GIVEAWAY

VALENTINES DAY EXTRAVAGANZA GIVEAWAY
February 11, 2010 by Shynea
I'm very excited for Valentine's Day this year. (Not because I am a big stickler on celebrating it, because in all actuality it is one of my least favorite holidays.) The reason I am excited is I get the chance to host a   Valentine's Day Extravaganza on my website for my readers. I have six really nice prizes to give away. The Valentine's Day extravaganza giveaway gets even better. How? Because it is going to coincide with my very first radio show. In order to win the prizes listed below, you will have to leave a comment on their respect...

MACY SUPPORTS GO RED FOR WOMEN: PLUS A GIVEAWAY {closed}
January 30, 2010 by Shynea
I was really excited when I was given the opportunity to work with Macy's to spread the word on the Go Red for Women campaign that is being led by the American Heart Association. "The Go Red For Women campaign is the American Heart Association’s nationwide movement that celebrates the energy, passion and power of women to join together and wipe out heart disease, the #1 killer of American women and men."  Macy’s Go Red for Women campaign is celebrating National Wear Red Day on February 5th.

LET M&M PRODUCTS HELP MAKE YOUR HAIR SOFN’FREE – GIVEAWAY {closed}
January 17, 2010 by Shynea
Hair is an important component of our lives. Yes that's right, it is.  Not only is our hair able to show our unique style as individuals but it also allows us to feel good.  I think everyone has a goal when it comes to hair, for it to be soft, shiny and well maintained.  Sometimes that is hard if you don't find a line of products that work well with your hair type. When an opportunity arose for me to review a hair care product line, I was ecstatic to try it out. This line, Sof'n Free, is for girls.  I have a daughter that has curly hair an...

LET BABY SO SMART SLINGS CARRY YOUR BABY IN STYLE + A GIVEAWAY {CLOSED}

LET BABY SO SMART SLINGS CARRY YOUR BABY IN STYLE + A GIVEAWAY {CLOSED}
December 20, 2009 by Shynea
As you all know, I am the mother of four sons. With all four sons, it seemed like I learned something new. I either discovered a better way to do something, or I was introduced to a new product that made me think "I wish they had this around with my other son. Life would have been SO much easier." That is how I felt a year ago when I was introduced to baby slings and baby wearing. Of course I had seen a few other mothers wear them, but I had no idea how to use them exactly. I also had this pre-conceived notion that they would be extremely unco...

CUSTOMIZED NAME JEWELRY FROM WOW IMPORTS & A GIVEAWAY

CUSTOMIZED NAME JEWELRY FROM WOW IMPORTS & A GIVEAWAY
December 10, 2009 by Shynea
I love personalized items. From clothing, to bags, to jewelry if I can get my name on it I want it.  Even if it's only my initials I feel that personalized gift items show that you put some thought into it. So imagine my happiness when I discovered the company Wow Imports. I have a team of awesome reviewers so when I presented Priscilla from Life of Mine with the opportunity to review their customized necklaces, this is what she said: If you asked me what one item was that I really like but never really buy for myself, my answer would be ...

PEARL PARADISE BRINGS YOU ELEGANT PEARLS & A GIVEAWWAY

PEARL PARADISE BRINGS YOU ELEGANT PEARLS & A GIVEAWWAY
December 8, 2009 by Shynea
I never thought that I would be the kind of person that would wear pearls. When someone even mentioned the word “pearls” to me, whether it was in the form of a bracelet, necklace or earrings, I automatically assumed that all pearls were white. I just couldn’t fathom myself wearing a strand of “proper” pearls. I have to say that my misconceptions have been so wrong. I was introduced to Pearl Paradise and my eyes were opened to a wide variety of different types of pearl necklaces. Contrary to popular belief, pearls didn’t just come i...

BUMBLERIDE INDIE TWIN: THE ULTIMATE STROLLER GIVEAWAY
December 6, 2009 by Shynea
With two children two and under, it is often a well orchestrated show when I have to venture anywhere outside of my house. I am a mommy of many, and with four kids small trips seem like field trips to me. With two children barely in the walking stages, I was in the market for a good stroller. THE BEST opportunity was presented to me by Bumbleride to test out their Indie Twin stroller before I bought it. Imagine my excitement when I rushed over to their site to take a look at the features that the Indie Twin offered. A multi-adjustable ...

HELP DOVE SUPPORT THEIR SELF ESTEEM CAMPAIGN & A GIVEAWAY

HELP DOVE SUPPORT THEIR SELF ESTEEM CAMPAIGN & A GIVEAWAY
December 2, 2009 by Shynea
I am honored to say that I was invited to participate in the Dove campaign for Real Beauty. I don’t have a daughter of my own but I am the oldest of four girls with my youngest sister being only 15. I know firsthand how important having the right self esteem can be. I also know how destructive having a lack of self esteem can be as well. Dove has a new campaign out called “Thank You For Making A Difference.” It is Dove’s mission to reach 5 million girls with programs on self esteem by 2010. Since 2005 Dove has been reached over 3.5 mil...

BLACK FRIDAY AT SAM’S CLUB
November 24, 2009 by Shynea
I am a HUGE Black Friday shopper. I have been going every year for over eight  years with my mother, and each year we always find a good deal. This will be my first year attending the Black Friday sales at Sam's Club though and I am really excited about that. If you are interested in attending your local Sam's Club event, make sure you get plenty of sleep the night before.

TASTE OF SAM’S WEEKEND EVENT STARTING 11/20

TASTE OF SAM’S WEEKEND EVENT STARTING 11/20
November 17, 2009 by Shynea
I know that I am a sensual person. I am very influenced when I go to the grocery store by the displays that are set up. This happens to me a lot when I go to Sam's Club, because they offer so many good sample bites of products that they sell there right in their store. I am a firm believer in "sampling" before I buy. Sam's Club goes above and beyond this measure by not only offering taste of snack items, but by preparing entire meals for you to sample. (I even went as far one weekend as buying EVERY item that was in that meal sample so I could ...

This year, I am making an effort to help my family become healthier. We have started by changing our eating habits, and the next step is having us exercise as a family.

SAM’S CLUB HAS GIFTS GALORE
November 13, 2009 by Shynea
Sam's Club is making this Christmas holiday a lot simpler by updating the special section to the website, Holidays Made Simple, on a daily basis. Another good feature of the Holidays Made Simple site is the Gifts Galore section of it. The best thing that I love about this sub-section to the Holidays Made Simple site is the fact that Sam's Club has divided up potential gifts into monetary categories. Now you can search for presents that are: Under $20 Under $100 Under $200 Under $300 Under $500 $500 & Above This is the ...
