Just a Quick Post so you Aren't Left in the Dark....

I hate, HATE those tiny button batteries. I've been using a book light that uses AAA batteries, which works ok (& doesn't require a tiny screwdriver), but my mom says I must upgrade to this-- it's rechargeable, which means A- better for the environment & B- you'll never be left in the dark! Moreover, it's got three brightness, which mom is raving about. Here's the link:

And while you're at it... Grab this book! One of my latest five-star-reviewed books on my GoodReads page :)  Light without being silly, & with plenty of fashion~

How to Try Before You Buy

The sweater that made this outfit arrived at my house yesterday, & I haven't paid for it yet! This was one of 8 items in my first Amazon Prime Wardrobe box. There will be more boxes (don't tell my husband. He gets really grumpy about organizing the recycling). 
Here's how it works:
1. Head to Amazon. Start your search by clicking on Prime Wardrobe on the left hand side as you're searching.
2. Add up to 8 items to your box!
3. Order! Nothing gets charged to your card until 1 week after it arrives at your house.
4. Run to your porch/mailroom/whathaveyou when your Prime Wardrobe box arrives! You'll get 1 week to try things on. Enjoy, ask friends for their opinions, etc. 
5. Return what you don't want, love what you keep!
Here's what came in my first box:
Daily Ritual Long sleeve Black & White
AWESOME deal. You get this shirt in black & white for $22, total! It's silky but not thin & the length felt great to me. I sized up & didn't regret it.

I love Lucky shirts-- such beautiful details~
Cable sweater

My favorite find from this shipment! It's in the top picture, as well. Just perfect. Great weight, soft, perfect length, & it'll look great under a vest, too~
Superga canvas sneakers
Kate Middleton wears Superga, so I had to try :)  I really liked these, it's just hard to spend $65 on sneakers I probably won't wear until spring... if you live in a place where you can wear white sneakers all winter, definitely click above!
LIghtweight long cardigan

I loved this, but I think I need to get it in another color, since I bought the other wine colored sweater above. This is lightweight, falls really well, & the length was great on me (I'm 5'6").
Daily Ritual Two-pack tank tops
Picture
A super-simple look, but these are comfy & soft & not too tight. 
Daily ritual long sleeve- 2 colors
Last item! I ordered these in a small, & they were a tighter fit than the black & white above. I would suggest sizing up, but there are some cute color combos when you click on the link above.
So that's it! I tried on everything, chose what I wanted to keep, & "returned"  things I didn't want under "my orders" on Amazon. Then, I taped up the box & dropped it off at UPS using the return label that came in the box. Really couldn't be easier, & oh-so-fun! Let me know if you have any questions or if you find anything awesome when you try it out!

    I'm so grateful to have you here with me.  I LOVE being a mom, but I'm trying to still be "me" while being a mom, & this blog has been a tool for me to figure that out.  Hopefully it's that for you, as well.  I look forward to hearing from you so that I can make this blog meaningful for you.  Thanks for being here!
