Flirty Aprons *Closed*


It seems like almost every time I cook,  something either splashes,  drops,  or just gets on me!  That is unless I am wearing an apron.  I love aprons because they save my clothes from stains.  And not only that but you can make a fashion statement while wearing the apron.  My apron would say that I am both girly and sassy.  What does your apron say about you? 

Flirty Aprons gave me an opportunity to choose a apron to review from their newest Mariliyn line.  The Marilyn line includes seven lovely designed aprons including:
  1. Marilyn Mint-a-liscious
  2. Marilyn Strawberry-Shortcake
  3. Marilyn Sugar n' Spice
  4. Marilyn Sage Sublime
  5. Marilyn Swanky Brunette
  6. Venetian Rose
  7. Marilyn Country Chic
Surprise,  surprise...I chose to review the Marilyn Strawberry-Shortcake.  It couldn't be because it's pink could it!  Yep,  that's right the girly pink apron decorated with polka-dots!  Each Candy Shop themed apron from the Marilyn line is single layered,  which means it costs less,  and it's not as heavy.  It is thinner so it makes it so good for Spring and Summer weather.

I couldn't wait to try it on as soon as I received it,  because it said one size fits all,  so I was anxious to see just how it would fit on me.  It surprisingly fit me perfectly,  and conveniently tied in the back.   The material is 100 percent cotton,  and because it is only one layer,  it is very light.  One of the things that really sets this beautiful apron off is it's cute little pouch pocket,  decorated with a matching Polka-Dot bow.  Add three rows of ruffles hems and you got yourself a really flirty,  cute apron!  To be honest,  I am in love with my new apron!

This girly apron makes me actually want to put an apron on when I cook.  They clean up easy too!  Flirty Aprons Marilyn line of aprons can be either  handwashed or machine washed.  They would make a great Valentines Day,  Birthday,  Mother's Day,  Anniversary,  Housewarming or Newlywed Gift.  And if you are purchasing an apron as a gift you have the option of including a special message,  just be sure to use the proper gift message section of the check out page.  You can purchase a Flirty Apron from their Marilyn line for only $27.95,  which is a great price,  because it's always nice to splurge a little on a really nice apron.  And with Mother's Day on the way,  it would make the perfect gift,  for a perfect mother! 
If you are not into the Marilyn line,  and would like a thicker apron, Flirty Aprons offer over fifty fashionable styles of aprons.  Each in a different style and pattern,  there is sure to be at least one that fits your fancy.  For me it is several,  then add a few,  and a couple more!   Matter of fact,  pretty much all of them!  Besides their line of women's aprons,  they also offer Men's and Children's Aprons.  They have some of the cutest aprons ever for men!  With humorous sayings such as "My Grill is Hotter than Yours",  and "I Like Big Buns",  how could you not like them!   I don't have a daughter but if I did I would love to purchase a matching apron for her!

The Marilyn Line is currently sold out at the moment,  but don't worry it should be back in stock by sometime this week.  For the inconvenience Flirty Aprons is offering my readers a 60% off coupon code to use toward any apron from their Marilyn line of aprons.  Use the code: "MARILYN60" to get 60% off your Marilyn Apron.  The code expires on May 10th.

NPW-USA

None of you know this,  but I live in Sacramento.  Here in Sacramento,  Downtown and Old Sacramento is the place to go!  One day while in Old Sacramento shopping,  a line of really cute products caught my eye.  I was so intrigued by their products, that I purchased one of their products,  and later contacted them when I got home.  It is one of those brands that everything is so cute you just don't know what to choose!  I ended up choosing a mini pack of Strawberry scented Cupcake Wipes. 

NPW-USA specializes in a wide range of high quality gifts and personal care products with a cute little twist!  NPW actually stands for Natural Products Worldwide.  They are a UK based Company but it's US office is located in Colorado.  They kindly sent me four of their awesome products to review.  It was so hard choosing which products I wanted to review because they have so many cute items to offer.  They sent me a Cherry Hand Cream,  Folding Butterfly Mirror,  4 Piece Brushed Stainless Steel Manicure Set and Anti Bacterial Paper Soap. 

Each item arrived nicely wrapped in Light Pink and Black tissue paper.  One of the first things that I noticed about the products is their packaging which really attracts your attention.  First I will tell you about their Cherry Hand Cream.  The  Cherry Feast Cupcake Hand cream comes packaged in a clear plastic box,  which allows you to see all the detail on the Hand Cream container.  I say this because the handcream is in the base of the cupcake and the cupcake is decorated with sprinkles and even a Cherry on Top! 
You simply open the top of the cupcake and the handcream is inside.  The handcream smelled heavily of Sweet Cherries and was thick in substance,  just like I like my hand creams.  This handcream would be perfect for a young girl or even a teenage girl!  Besides the Cherry scent they also offer other really great scents such as Coconut Dream Cupcake,  Strawberry Cupcake and Choco Deluxe Cupcake.  This product can be purchased at Hot Topic Stores nationwide.

I was very impressed with their folding Butterfly Mirror. It came packaged in clear plastic with butterflies and Pink and Black polka dots that decorated the package.  The mirror works great,  and easily folds over to store,  and keeps it from getting scratched.  I keep it in my purse,  and any time I need a mirror I have one handy.  I love the detail on the outside of the mirror,  along with the metallic Pink color.  Once again I think this product would be perfect for a young girl or teenager or an adult like myself!  This product can be purchased at Hot Topic Stores nationwide.


The 4 Piece Brushed Stainless Steel Manicure Set came packaged in Clear Plastic decorated with Pink and White Stars.  The outside of the case is a Glittery Bright Pink color and really stands out!  Inside the case is Nail and Cuticle Scissors,  Nail Clippers,  Slanted Tweezers,  and a Nail File/Cleaner.  It really goes along perfectly with the metallic Pink Butterfly Mirror.  The tweezers were easy to use along with the Nail and Cuticle Scissors and Tweezers.  I still have not used the Nail/File Cleaner. This product can be purchased at Hot Topic Stores nationwide.


The Anti-Bacterial Paper Soap is really unique!  It comes in a convenient little plastic package that holds 30 single-use soap sheets.  I also keep these in my purse,  as I can use them anytime I need them,  you just simply add water!  They protect by neutralising germs and harmful bacteria.  Anti-Bacterial Paper Soap is suitable for hand carry on airlines.  What a great product to take with you when you are traveling.  This particular product can be purchased at The Spoon Sisters Online Site.  

Besides these products, they also offer a bunch of other great products,  all at reasonable prices!  The 10 pack of Strawberry scented wet wipes that I purchased also sit in my purse.  They come in really handy, as I have already used four of them.  The package is resealable so they stay nice and fresh.  They also offer Lip Balms,  Fun Shower Caps,  Soap on a Rope,  Inflight Comfort Kits and many other unique products in trendy packages.

It's Rumba Time!!!




I have been in need of a nice new watch lately that is why I was extremely happy when Rumba Time offered to send me a couple watches to review!  Rumba Time is an online site that offers silicone watches in many different colors and styles.  I love their variety of colors and styles because it seems like they have something to fit every ones interests!  They are so lightweight that at times I forget I'm wearing a watch.  Not only that but they are made out of Silicone so you can easily slip it on your wrist.  Unless you have a link watch,  which contains a magnetic clasp that allows you to detach and reattach on your wrist,  with no stretching.  

Rumba Time Watches comes in four convenient sizes:
1. Extra Small-  Age 6 and under (5 inches / 140mm)
2. Small-  Most Women and Children (6 inches/ 160mm)
3. Medium-  Most Men and Some Women (7 inches/ 180mm)
4. Large-  Some Men (8 inches/ 200mm)

Rumba Time offers over 15 different style collections including:  Original 2.0,  Lafayette,  VanDam,  and Metallic- just to name a few!  Not only that but they also offer an awesome line of children's collection.  I received the Rumba Time  Glitter Watch to review along with the Cotton Candy Watch.  The Glitter Watch is Clear in color with silver sparkles throughout the watch that are sure to catch your eye.  I thought it would be a great selection  for children or for teenagers.  I ordered the size Medium which easily fit over my wrist with little stretching involved.  I  could have fit into a size Small but the Medium left me with extra room which I liked. 

I also received the Rumba Time Cotton Candy in a size Medium as well.  The bright neon color really stood out and made the watch "pop"!  Just like the other watch it was easy to slip on my wrist and fit really well with a little bit of extra room.  One of the things I liked best about the watch is that it is very light weight.  Matter of fact,  the actual weight of the watch is only 10 grams!  

The watches vary in price depending upon the style of the watch.  The watches I reviewed are both only $14.00 which is very reasonably priced.  Another great thing I like about the Rumba Time Watches is that they are water resistant.  This means you do not have to remove your watch while washing your car,  bathing, Or while it's raining!   Making these watches extremely durable and convenient to wear. 

They come packaged in a trendy little clear  plastic tube that they fit perfectly in.  The battery life of a Rumba Time Watch lasts for 12-18 months before you have to replace it with a SR626 Battery(if you have a watch from the original collection).  They offer an exceptional return policy- you can return any watch purchased within one year, for any reason. They are fun to wear and I love coordinating them with my outfits and moods.  Overall I think they are a great value!
