Bebe au Lait Deluxe Gift Set Review & Giveaway

I have been a huge fan of Bebe au Lait for a couple years now. In those short years I’ve been lucky enough to review several of their products and have truly loved each and every one of them! They really do know what works and what doesn’t and they haven’t forgotten that you want to look good while doing it. What especially stands out to me with Bebe au Lait is their quality. They are above and beyond their competitors and will far outlast your need for them. One of my favorite products from them have been their Hooded Towels. I have a couple of them and they are the only “baby” towels I still use for Gavin. They are really thick and still a good size for him. While the others I had deteriorated over the years these ones are still as nice as the day I got them.

Looking for the perfect baby shower gift? Then look no further then the Bebe au Lait Dleuxe Gift Set! It has an Original Stylish Nursing Cover and three matching Burp Clothes. You can pick from 17 different patterns!

I have a couple of their nursing covers already and I’ve been impressed with each one. I love that they go over each and every one to make it uniquely special. Some are simple and to the point, others a re pretty with soft patterns and ruffles, and some even have pockets! I hadn’t had a chance to see out the burp clothes before now. They have the same great quality as those hooded towels I told you about so you know they are built to withstand a lot. I’ve used other burp clothes and found it was pointless. Unless it was just a little spit up they didn’t protect you. We’ve all been there when our child pukes right down our shoulder. Not with these ones though. Sure, I can’t promise that you won’t get yucked a few times but at least this burp cloth is thick enough to absorb the normal every day spit up when other brands can’t.

Primo Jewels Hematite Jet Crystal Hoop Earrings Review & Giveaway!

I love jewelry. All kinds of jewelry. What I hate about jewelry is that sometimes it gets so expensive that unless it’s classic jewelry you don’t want to spend a lot of money on it so when it goes out of style you aren’t as upset. Primo Jewels has all the latest styles but at prices that are so affordable you can get everything you love most without breaking the bank. You can get everything from earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and rings.

As you’ve probably figured out by now, I love hoop style earrings. So when I saw the Hematite Jet Crystal Hoop Earrings I immediately knew I had to have them. I loved that they were black and that every angle of the hoop had the rhinestones as well. I actually loved the entire Hematite Jet Crystal Collection!

When the earrings arrived they were a bit more “chunkier” then I expected. They are big and a bit heavy but surprisingly when in they don’t feel heavy. I wouldn’t wear these earrings on a regular basis but they will be a perfect touch for an upcoming wedding I’ll be going too. I love when the sun hits them they sparkle. With my sensitive ears these haven’t bothered me and I like that they also come with earring backs and that they are the dark metallic color so they blend in well too. Now I really want the matching bangle to wear to the wedding too!

Primo Jewels has offered one Mom Spotted Reader a $25 Gift Certificate towards the purchase of their choice!!!

The Sharper Image Wireless Indoor & Outdoor Speaker Pair and Dock Review & Giveaway!

When I first got my iPod touch a few years ago I used it mainly for email and checking a few online sites. I wasn’t really aware of all it was capable of and all of the devices that you could use with it. Then just before Christmas I was lucky enough to get the latest version of the iPod touch and the iPod nano as well. The nano encouraged me to start using iTunes and downloading all my CD collection. Before I knew it I was turning to my iPods for the latest music. Problem? I didn’t like having to always wear my earphones to listen to the tunes.

That’s when I started looking into all the different devices I could use to make the most of them. The Sharper Image was already one of my favorite go to websites for the latest and greatest electronics. What I didn’t realize was that they had THIRTY different products to use with your iPod! I was super excited to check the iPod electronics out! However, when I saw the Wireless Indoor / Outdoor Speaker Pair and Dock I knew it would be a perfect fit.

Indoor/Outdoor Wireless Speakers

Your fun will not be boxed in, or limited to one indoor space – not when you have these Indoor/Outdoor Wireless Speakers. Heading out to the pool, or out to the BBQ? Grab these wireless indoor/outdoor speakers with, and make tracks. You won’t be dragging wires behind, because they are cordless.

Outdoor speakers that don’t need to be babied near the pool or hot tub – that’s what you get with these weather resistant Indoor/Outdoor Wireless Speakers. A few splashes of water from an unexpected rain shower or from the pool aren’t going to ruin these 900 MHz beauties. You can relax and enjoy the clear sound, without fussing over wires or raindrops. The Indoor/Outdoor Wireless Speaker system features a dual power transmitter. Use AC power, or batteries if you’d like – you get complete freedom whenever you want. These wireless indoor/outdoor speakers support multiple audio inputs including iPods, iPhones, MP3 players, computers and much more. Remote included.

• Supports all types of audio inputs including RCA inputs for home theater

• Supports MP3 players, computers, iPods, iPhones and more

• Remote included in indoor/outdoor wireless speaker system

• Includes 2 wireless indoor/outdoor speakers

• Cordless outdoor speakers are weather resistant

• Indoor/outdoor wireless speaker system with 2 AC adapters

• 1 dual power transmitter with 1 AC adapter

• Comes with user manual for cordless outdoor speakers

• 900 MHz transmitter sends audio signals without speaker wire

• Wireless indoor/outdoor speakers can use battery power or adapter

• Add additional cordless outdoor speakers to enhance listening

• Create outdoor surround sound with weather resistant indoor/outdoor wireless speakers

• Cordless outdoor speakers can be up to 150 feet away from audio source

• Wireless indoor/outdoor speakers are perfect for poolside, spa, BBQ and deck

Batteries: 12 C, 4 AA, 2 AAA Required

These are great because I use them all the time when I’m cleaning. I have one in my kitchen and the other in my dining room. They work incredibly well. I don’t recommend turning them all the way up because I do think you’ll blow the speakers easily. If you use them reasonably they are still pretty loud and they sound great. I personally felt that these were the type of product that a written post just wasn’t enough and decided to show you a video. This is my actual set in my home.

As you can see these little speakers pack quite the punch. Plus, since they are easy to use I love being able to take them where ever. You’ll often find them in my scrapbooking room!

Kelly Moore Camera Bags Review & Giveaway ($250 Value!) Plus $15 Off Discount Coupon!

18,383 views

May 6, 2011 By Jennifer 2,601 Comments

I love bags as you have probably already figured out but it has been awhile since I have gotten so excited about one. When I found out I was going to be able to review a Kelly Moore Bag I was beyond excited and couldn’t wait until it was on my door stop. Lately I’ve been doing a lot of airplane traveling and I’ve been having difficulty finding just the right carry-on bag. Once that wasn’t for my clothing but for all my electronics and extra’s. I needed something that could accommodate either my laptop or my iPad and still keep my camera and other electronics sale.

Then my eyes landed on the Libby. Isn’t she beautiful? The moment I saw her I knew I had to have her! I loved all the photos that were available on their site it made finding the perfect bag to fit your needs easy as can be.

I really liked that when it came it was very well protected. It was packaged well and also in a protective bag when it arrived. I also liked that they took special care to all the protect all the external pieces as well. Each zipper tie was wrapped, the metal protected, and even the handles were nicely wrapped..

Once you remove the protectants you are left with a stunning bag!

I really like the decal that you see right on the front of the bag.

In the front of the bag there are three, yes three, zippered pockets. the front ones are great for things you need to keep handy. Be careful what you put in there though as the way the zipper is you have a tight opening making it not as easy to get in and out. The large pocket is great for paperwork you need to keep handy as it is a thin deep pocket.

outside specs:
Front:
• 2- 6.5″ x 7.5″ zipper pockets
• 1- 10.5″ zipper pocket
Sides:
• 2- 6.5″ x 8.5″ open pockets
Back:
• 1 – 11″ zipper pocket

You can see that Kelly Moore didn’t overlook any details. Each zipper pull is a nice leather pull with brand labeling. The front pockets have a nice decorative buckle on each pocket that really adds style to the bag.

The back of the bag has another deep thin pocket and is a little deeper then the front one. The side also has great little pockets for things like airport passes, your cell phone, and more. These pockets are really easy to get in and out of.

The bottom of the bag is has metal stands so it doesn’t get all scratched up every time you place it down. This bag also has a nice removable messenger strap with padding.

I tried taking photos of the inside but they didn’t come out well since this bag is deep and it shadowed every time I tried so I used their photos. As you can see this bag can hold it all. This is great for professional, education, and personal purposes. This bag is going to make a great traveling bag for myself. I have been flying a lot lately and my camera and pieces get tossed aroung my other bags as the focus always seems to be on the laptop., Not with this bag. It allows you to safely pack both!

Here is one photo I took of the inside. I wanted to show you one of the best features! This bag is completely adjustable to what you need it to be. The inserts have like a strong foam board inside the material so the are soft for packing but strong enough to keep their shape. Have you ever had that bag that was almost perfect because you just needed one more inch here or one less there. This bag can be adjusted so everything fits perfectly!!

inside specs:
1 – laptop divider – Will hold up to a 17″ laptop
5- padded, removable, adjustable dividers

I wish I took a photo of the top of this bag. There is another long foam piece that lays over the top keeping everything in their place and then it zippers closed. This really is such a great functional bag that will allow you to pack everything and keep it safe.

Kelly Moore has an amazing selection of photography bags! One of her bags is sure to be a perfect fit for you! I just want to warn you though that the moment you go over to her site you’ll be in love.

I also have a $15 Off Coupon towards any purchase between now and June 15! Just enter momspotted at checkout!
