Pennymeade Classic Children's Clothing Review & Giveaway

Pennymeade offers classic children's clothing for the practical parent.  Modeled after the classic English style, the clothing is beautifully made, comfortable, and just plain adorable!

Designer Monica Noone has always taken pleasure and pride in dressing her young children in classic, coordinating childrenswear. But with four little ones, the joy of putting together the perfect ensemble quickly became an expensive endeavor. Tiring of paying hundreds of dollars for even casual collections, Monica launched Pennymeade with the goal of providing families like hers with the high-quality, classic clothes she loves, at a price point even a mom of four could appreciate. The Pennymeade brand is designed to be comfortable and practical, yet still timeless and treasured, with quality that ensures today’s favorites will become a handed down delight for the next child.

I was able to review two pieces from Pennymeade's Silhouette Collection and I have to say the quality blew me away. You would expect to pay a lot more for this type of clothing if purchased anywhere else. The fabric designs are clean and crisp, yet the fabric is soft and very comfortable.

My twin boys are wearing the Silhouette Button Down in a 100% cotton, summer sage design. These outfits are perfect for church or any outing where you want a dressy-casual look. I also love how you can coordinate the looks between girls and boys.

My daughter is wearing the Silhouette 'Lillian' Dress with matching baby doll dress. This apron-styled dress offers a 100% cotton, pink and green floral design and will be a favorite all summer. 

Elasticized back and two button positions on the straps will keep this dress fitting well throughout the year. The dress is also fully lined.


The cuteness is too much for words! 

I received so many compliments when I took the kids to church in their Pennymeade outfits. You just can't help but love this clothing line!

Pennymeade also offers monogramming for a small fee to further personalize your children's clothing, making them treasured keepsakes. 

Both pieces are offered in sizes 12 months through 8 years.
Pennymeade is also offering a monogrammed 'Lillian' Dress from their Bulldog collection to one lucky reader (a $48 value)! 
Giveaway is open to US residents, ages 18 and over.

Good Luck! :)

Best Home Furnishings Recliner Review - Made in the USA

Best Home Furnishings started back in 1962 with just 2 men. Now, over 50 years later, this family-owned and operated facility is quickly growing to become one of the largest furniture manufacturers in the world!

They offer chairs, recliners, glider rockers, sofas and more, and are proud to have their furniture made right here in the USA.

About a month or so ago, I was given the opportunity to review The Beast recliner in Roscoe.
Best Home Furnishings offers many different shapes, colors and sizes of recliners, and I picked The Beast since my husband is 6'6 and has a hard time comfortably fitting into any piece of furniture as it is.

The Beast takes oversized recliners to new lengths. The extra-large, hand-assembled hardwood frame reclines to a full 83" and is tested to withstand more than 400 pounds of everyday use (per their website).
As you can see from this photo above, my 6'6 husband has no problem getting comfortable in this recliner! In fact, I hardly ever get the chance to sit in it because he won't sit anywhere else!
It's also my children's favorite place to sit. 
So if you're looking for the perfect Father's Day gift (and what man doesn't love a recliner?), visit your local furniture store who carries Best Home Furnishings or click here to find a retailer near you.

Platinum Glo Airbrush Spray Tanning Review & Giveaway!

Platinum Glo Airbrush Tanning's "Tan Can" is a quick and easy way to achieve that beautiful tanned glow anytime and anywhere.

There are plenty of at-home spray tanning products out there, and I've used quite a few, but I've found this one to be my personal favorite.

The biggest thing I noticed right away is that it smells wonderful! Usually I hate the smell spray tans leave on my skin, and it's one of my biggest complaints. Platinum Glo's Tan Can reminds me of the smell of Hawaiian Tropic products that I used to use back in the day. Just a nice beachy scent.



  • You start by having exfoilated skin, free from perfumes or lotions.
  • I also put on latex gloves just to ensure I didn't get any on the palms of my hands.
  • Hold the can 8 to 10 inches away from you skin and begin spraying. 
  • Keep the can moving slowly and let the mist coat your skin. 
  • I then used my hand (covered by the latex gloves) to blend the spray evenly over my skin. I moved my hand in small, circular motions until I felt it was well blended.
The whole process is quick, easy and dries super fast.
I also didn't shower for 4-6 hours after application.

Here is a photo of my legs (left leg is 2 hours after application and nothing on my right leg).
You can keep coating your skin to achieve your desired tan. As time went on, my skin became a little darker than what you see here.

I am so happy with the results. No orange legs (as have happened with some at-home tanning products in the past).

Platinum Glo uses a purple base, not green, and that's why you won't get that orange, oompa-loompa look ;)


The "Tan Can" is currently $30 plus $3 shipping. They are working on their website but do accept Paypal, so if you visit their Facebook page HERE, you can order your own "Tan Can". 

Platinum Glo Airbrush Tanning is also offering a "Tan Can" in a giveaway! YAY!
