FYLO- For Your Lips Only!


I think I'm in love! (Yes, of course with my husband!) But most recently with FYLO, that's "For Your Lips Only!"
I am a huge lip gloss fan and FYLO is the perfect solution for creating my very own lip palette of colors that I will actually use! All too often, when purchasing a lip palette, a few of the colors will go to waste since they are not right for me.
FYLO allows you to design a personalized compact filled with little luxuries chosen from 28 lip colors, 12 lip glosses, 12 lip pencils and a lip treatment. The colors come in these great little cubes that fit into a compact. You make a one time compact purchase and fill it with 2 or 4 color cubes (depending on size of cubicle you purchase). When you run out of your favorites, reorder the color cubes and refill. What a beautiful idea!
I will tell you that the best part of receiving my FYLO samples was opening the pretty packaging and cute tiny boxes that held the color cubes. For me, part of the fun of cosmetics is the packaging. FYLO offers great packaging. You feel that you are really getting the top notch product that it is.
Visit Heidi, the creator of FYLO, at fylocosmetics.com and see for yourself the great lip treats that await you. You'll be in love too!

Corsierre 3 in 1


Check out this nursing bra! What?....nursing bra? Can you believe it?! This is 3 in 1 nursing bra, cami and corset! It has so many fabulous features, including fiber filled straps which help support "the girls" and totally comfortable on the shoulders, endlessly classic round neckline, curved hemline and multi-panel design which both are very stylish and flattering in the tummy area. The Corsierre also has built in nursing pad holders in the inner cami! It has the look of a corset without the constrictions, so comfortable it almost feels like you are braless!

This nursing Corsierre™ holds you in all the right places and hugs all the right curves. Great to wear anywhere ~ with your favorite pair of jeans when you are out and about, or to yoga class, or as an under layer. Even if you are no longer nursing you can wear it to bed for support while you sleep!

Join the Hot Mama Tribe!



A new company called Hot Mama Ink was launched Spring, 2006. They offer a sexy line of clothing featuring original tattoo inspired artwork which celebrates the mother/child bond with an edgy rock and roll feel.

The clothes were inspired by company co-owner, Andrea Jarrell's frustration with ill-fitting, matronly clothing options for her post-partum shape. A frustration that I think all moms can relate to!
Hot Mama Ink styles include hoodies, tees, tanks, nursing tanks, yogo pants and baby slings. Pieces come in form fit or free fit.
Each piece offers original tattoo artwork. A variety of "tattoo" artwork is available. My favorite design is the "Geisha".
See for yourself all the great products for Hot Mama's at Hot Mama Ink!

Planet Mom T-Shirts: The Truth Be Told




9:00 am: 4 year old pre-school, 9:15 am: 2 Year old Gymboree, 12:30pm: Adaptive P.E., 3:00pm: Physical Therapy, 4:00pm: Swim School, 5:00pm: Home... And that's just Monday! I AM the Secretary of Transportation. Thanks to Planet Mom T-Shirts, the truth can be told! Planet Mom offers a great selection of clever t's that show off your "mom" jobs. Founded by longtime friends Eileen and Elise, Planet Mom was created to provide fun, high quality apparel for moms who like to laugh. All Planet Mom apparel is top of the line, comfortable, and flattering. Their sizes range from small to plus and if you don't see what you need, they take custom orders as well. All t-shirts are made by American Apparel, 100% super soft cotton. Their phrases are embroidered with mesh interfacing on the inside of the shirt to insure comfort and stability. Planet Mom t's will definitely put a smile on the faces of those you encounter. Some of their clever catch phrases are ones that I'm sure you already use, so why not show them off! They've got: Nanny Deprived, I Need A Playdate, and my favorite (besides Secretary of Transportation of course), BECAUSE I SAID SO. Take a look at Planet Mom, they also have fun gifts for Dad. After noticing our yellowing lawn today, I think it would be appropriate for my husband to have the "seeking rich, fertile, disease free lawn" hat. Planet Mom has been featured on The View, Fox and Friends News, The Today Show, and much more. Treat yourself to a new favorite t-shirt, you can never have too many!

Love the Bread & Budder



After finding this product, I will no longer be able to live without them! Bread and Budder is a wonderful company out of Watkinsville, Georgia that makes buckets hand wrapped with fabric. Created by founder, Stephanie Cartright, the buckets are all one of a kind and are finished off with the secret Bread and Budder seal, which makes the fabric permanent. They will not peel and are waterproof too. Do you know what this means? The possibilities are endless! Check out their "102 Uses" everything from ice buckets filled with drinks at a party to toilet paper holders in the bathroom. The fabric choices are incredible too: from vintage to baby to holiday, you can find something to fit your needs. They make great gift "buckets" too. Toss the gift bag and fill up a bucket instead. Who ever thought buckets could be so stylish? These definitely are. Bread and Budder also makes custom buckets. You pick the fabric, they make the bucket. Again, the possibilities are endless. I plan to have some custom made to match my son's room, just think, stylish storage! Bread and Budder buckets are quickly becoming a celebrity favorite and they have received some great press. Check out their site today and pick up some Bread and Budder.
