Review: Design our Own Charm Watch

http://www.beadinspirations.com/images/manufacturers/charm_watch.jpg

Item: "Design Your Own Charm Watch" Klutz book instructions and materials
Rating: 4 out of 5
Review:

Do you have a creative side? Do you like fashion? Or maybe you just want a cute watch so you'll be able to tell your little brother that he has been on the computer for not his promised 1 minute, but rather 30! If so, than this book is for you. It comes with a booklet full of instruction with cute ideas plus a watch and charms so you can design your own!

This is a really fun project, and my bracelet turned out adorable. It even looks store bought! The nice thing about this booklet is that it has so many different ideas and instructions on how to do them. You can also mix and match the charms to tell the story of your life! The one thing that I don't really like however, is that there ended up to be so many extras. I think it would be nice if you could purchase just a single extra watch that you can use your extra charms on.

You can purchase this item from Amazon here, as the "Klutz" website is currently not working:

Wednesday Wishlist - 1 Day Late!

I have decided to start a new meme called, "Wednesday Wish list!" The reason that I am posting it on Thursday this week is because I didn't decide that I should do it until today! For my Wednesday Wishlist post, I will be featuring one item that I wish that I owned!

Mini Mirrors, Hearts

This week I am featuring these adorable "Mini Heart Mirrors" by PBTeen! Aren't they absolutely adorable? I think they would really make a nice addition to the right bedroom, probably one that is a bit bigger and is more simple without much clutter filling it!

A "Fearless" Review



CD: "Fearless"
Artist: Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift has recently (November 11th, 2008) came out with a new CD, "Fearless." There are 13 songs on the soundtrack all of which are written by Taylor herself! You may have heard her song, "Love Story" or "You Belong With Me", which are both songs on the CD, on the radio many times. Taylor's songs are very catchy and make you want to sing!


I love Taylor Swifts songs on her "Fearless" CD! A few of my favorites are, "Breathe," "Your Not Sorry" and "Best Day." Her songs are easily relatable and she isn't afraid to use the names of her ex boyfriends in her songs! I purchased this CD and was not disappointed. If you are a fan of Taylor Swifts, or even if your not, I encourage you to listen to this CD!



This is not a paid review. I was given this CD as a Christmas gift.

Review: N.Y.C Color -Quick Dry


Rating: 4 out of 5
Purchase:



Purchase here
Or here


N.Y.C. Nail polish has come out with a whole new line! "New York Color" and I love it! Currently, I am wearing the "East Village" color which is a turquoise'ish blue and I absolutely love it! The color has a bit of a shimmer to it and it looks really neat! However, I found that to get the color more vibrant you have to apply two layers. The nail polish dries quickly and doesn't clump up like some cheap brands. And one of the best things about this line of polish is that is very inexpensive! The bottle could be a little more fashionable, however, it really isn't about the bottle, but rather whats in side, right?

Review: "Beaded 4-Strand Bracelet"



Item:

Beaded 4-Strand Bracelet

Store: Aeropostale

Price: $12.50 or Buy 1 get one free.

Purchase Here

I purchased this bracelet because I needed accessories for a yellow sunflower dress that I was to wear for 4-H Fashion Revue. It can be hard to find reasonably priced jewelry that dosen't look cheap, so I was excited when I found this set off four adorable beaded bracelets! They look very nice and they have held up through being worn. They don't look as cheap as they are and they are a really nice color brown! They also come in a pink color. I think that the ribbon that ties the four together adds a really nice finishing touch to the bracelet. I enjoy wearing this and think that you will as well!

This is not a paid revue, I purchased this product.

Review: Alyssa Shirt Dress



Delias.com
"Alyssa Shirt Dress" Review
Rating: 4.5 out of 5

I love this dress from Delias. You can wear it with a lot of different things, dress it up, or dress it down! It also has the somewhat old fashioned look to it, but keeps the sophisticated look that us teens love today! I've worn this dress quite a few times already and have received many comments saying that they love my dress on it! It also comes in quite a few different colors, white, black, teal, as well as a few others! This dress is overall, just a really, really nice dress that makes you look cute and sophisticated while wearing!
