Royal Java Green Silk Batik Scarf by Novica

*Royal Java Green Silk Batik Scarf by Novica

I think a nice scarf is a "Must Have" for every wardrobe.  Especially a nice silk one like this Royal Java Green Silk Batik Scarf by Novica.  Once again, pictures do not do this justice!  The colors are much more rich and vibrant in real life.  The greens, creams and reds used in this scarf are beautiful and unique.  Plus, the pure silk is unbelievably soft.  

Made by Yuni Kristina she recreates the traditional parang raja batik motifs which symbolizes the ancient Javanese kingdom in general.  Her attention to detail and pride in her craft comes through and the scarf becomes a wonderful piece of art that you can wear!

I like to pair this scarf with a jean jacket, white t-shirt and tan pants for a more casual, "with a touch of elegance" kind of look.  This Royal Java Green Silk Batik Scarf by Novica adds the perfect finishing touch to any outfit.

This Royal Java Green Silk Batik Scarf by Novica is an original Novica fair trade product in association with National Geographic and designed by Yuni Kristina.  It comes with an official Novica story card certifying quality & authenticity.

You see how beautiful this Blue and Rose Mandalas Floral Shoulder Bag by Novica is just by looking at pictures of it.  But, what you can't see is the intricate detail and craftsmanship on this bag without seeing it in person.  To see it in real life and to touch and feel it makes you appreciate it all that much more.  It's a beautiful brilliant blue color with intricate embroidery detail and sequins comprised of complimentary vibrant colors.  It's the perfect size, it's even big enough to be used as a small tote bag and it looks great paired with any outfit.  I love this bag, it's almost too pretty for everyday use so it's reserved for special occasions!

Comfort Fit Silicone Wedding Band by Love Is Bold

*Comfort Fit Silicone Wedding Band by Love Is Bold

Since my husband is in construction it's probably been about 10 years since he has worn his wedding ring.  He used but he works with his hand all day and it's just too uncomfortable.  Not to mention he broke then proceeded to loose his first wedding ring and when we got him a new one he just stopped wearing it all together for fear of the same thing happening to the new ring.  Thankfully, this Comfort Fit Silicone Wedding Band by Love Is Bold came along.  We ordered him a size 11 in the black and he loves it.  He can wear it all day without it even noticing its on.  

The Comfort Fit Wedding Band is made from Silicone so it's not only comfortable it's also very durable, not to mention washable.  When my husband sets tile and gets grout all of his ring he doesn't have to worry about it getting damaged, the grout rinses right off!

If your husband works with his hands all day then I would definitely recommend this ring for him, he will love you for it!  Or, maybe you work with your hands all day?  I have a girlfriend that is a hair stylist and she wears one of these rings too!

Foot Covers, Toe Covers & Flats by Kushyfoot

*Foot Covers, Toe Covers & Flats by Kushyfoot

Several months ago Kushyfoot was nice enough to send me a pair of their Flats to Go and several different pairs of their Foot & Toe Covers to try out and now that I have had a chance to try everything out I wanted to share my thoughts!

First, let's talk about the Alligator Print Flats to Go that they sent me and why I LOVE them!  I love that these are totally portable and come with a nice little case to carry them in.  Since they can be folded or rolled up they are perfect to just keep in your purse.  Keep in mind that these are not flats that you would want to go walk around outside in unless it's going to be on a smooth surface.  They are meant for indoor use and are REALLY perfect for travel.  Not only are they cute and stylish but they are also super comfy, instead of shoes, they feel more like slippers.  Plus, they come in 5 different styles to choose from and they are really inexpensive.  

I cannot wait to take these on my upcoming trip!  They will be perfect to throw in my carry-on and then I can just take off my other shoes off, slip into these and settle in for my long flight!  I will be comfortable and stylish!

Kusyfoot also sent several pairs of their Foot Covers and Toe Covers and I have been totally hooked ever since!  

I have several pairs of the usual type of socks that you wear with flats and they have worked fine but now that I have tried the Foot & Toe Covers from Kushyfoot I will never go back.  They come in a wide variety of colors and styles to choose from but the unique part is that they have padded soles!  What a difference that padded sole makes!  As we know, most flats do not come with much support or cushion and I don't know about you, but after a day of walking in my flats my feet are pretty sore and achy.  These Foot & Toe Covers with the padded soles are amazing and add just enough padding to really help give your foot that much needed protection, cushion and relief!  Amazeballs!

Make sure you go check out Kushyfoot.com and get some of their Covers & Flats for yourself, I promise you will love them too!

Metallic Gold Flash Temporary Tattoos by Kiki

*Metallic Gold Flash Temporary Tattoos by Kiki

So, I finally broke down and tried out these Metallic Temporary Tattoos and I have to say I am super impressed!  They actually look really cool and could even pass for real jewelry and real tattoos from a distance!

This particular pack, Metallic Gold Flash Temporary Tattoos by Kiki, comes with 5 sheets and over 50 Tattoos to choose from.  My personal favorite is the sheet is the Sea Themed sheet that has the Mermaid on it.  The Seahorse is so pretty it has made me think about getting a REAL tattoo that looks exactly like it! 

These are also really easy to apply.  Simply cut out the tattoo of your choice, remove plastic fronting, place tattoo on clean, smooth, dry skin and hold a damp cloth or sponge on it for about 20 seconds and then peel off backing.  It's that easy!  (You may need to leave on a little longer if it isn't sticking).  The tattoos should last up to 5 days if they are kept dry and less if you get them wet, obviously.

I have been saving the Sea Themed sheet to take on our upcoming cruise and I can't wait to use them!!

Sexy Metallic Temporary Tattoos by BellEsentials

*Sexy Metallic Temporary Tattoos by BellEsentials

Has anyone else tried out the whole temporary Tattoo thing?  At first I thought they were a little too trendy for me but then I actually saw someone wearing them in real life, not just in a magazine, and I was really impressed with how cool they looked!  Some of them even look like you are wearing jewelry when applied correctly.  Plus, you get to enjoy what it's like to have a tattoo without the permanent commitment!

I was sent these really cool Metallic Temporary Tattoos by BellEsentials and I'm not sure who was more excited to try them out me or my daughter!  Thankfully they are really easy to apply.  Just pick pick out the tattoo and where you would like to put it and then cut it out and peel off the clear plastic that protects it.  Next, position the tattoo, image side down, onto your clean skin (how you want it to look to other people) and place a damp cloth or sponge over the back of it for at least 60 seconds or so.  Then just gently grab a corner of the paper and slowly peel it back.  If for some reason the image isn't sticking to your skin just hold the damp sponge back on it for another 30 seconds. 

Presto, instant tattoo that will lasts for several days depending on your activity level and how much you are in water!  It's really that easy! 

This particular pack includes 6 sheets of Metallic Tattoos in all sorts of cool designs.  I think the tattoos that are made to look like jewelry are especially cool!
