I want my wife to have these!

My wife drove the car to our friend’s house yesterday afternoon for dinner. The dinner has nothing to do with thanksgiving; it was just a normal get together kind of thing and meeting her mom’s future daughter-in-law. I wish I was there to meet her too but unfortunately I had to work. My wife told me that her mom like the girl and they all couldn’t wait to settle down. My wife and I haven’t attended wedding party yet as couple and it would be nice to witness one soon. Whenever that happens I want my wife to wear pretty dress and look beautiful that day too. I heard her talking about the Dress First website and I was curious of it. I went ahead and take a look at their website and found a lot of beautiful formal dresses that my wife would love to have. They have so many nice dresses that it took me a long time to choose for a possible dress that I could buy for her.



I wanted to surprise her but since I don’t know the size of her clothes I think it’s better if I will just have her order it instead of me. The dresses I pick are the dresses that I know my wife would love to wear. While I was browsing at their website, my little girl saw me and she said that she want some nice dresses too. Well, I am hoping that my daughter will be one of the flower girls in the wedding that way she can have a princess floor length dress just like the ones she saw at the Dress First website. They offer free shipping for prom dresses and wedding dresses too and it will end on December 1st, so hurry and grab the chance to avail their amazing offer.

Bows 'N Ties - Review & Giveaway

Wearing ties for me is pretty much a normal thing since I have religious meetings to go to as well as going out in field ministry. I’m always on the lookout for fashionable ties that will match my wardrobe. Whenever we go to our local department store I would always want to buy a new tie but my wife stops me because she knows that I have a lot of ties collected and most of them are just sitting in my closet. I gave some of them to my wife’s family in the Philippines because they wear ties too. As a product reviewer it’s my pleasure to work with many different sponsors to review their products and one of the recent item I received in the mail a few days ago was a PUCCINI’s tie. I have never owned a PUCCINI tie so having this kind of tie is an honor.


Of course I am so excited because I don’t have to buy one, I got one for free in exchange of my honest review. The color was a surprised to me and it is very timely because I don’t have a bright peacock-teal colored tie with a contemporary striped design yet. The texture and material of this tie is really nice and smooth. What I love about it is that it is stain resistant and it s made from a unique microfiber fabric that looks and feels just like silk.


I wore it today with my white shirt (it matches perfectly) and I noticed that the fabric was so soft that my daughter was rubbing all day and couldn’t keep her hands off of it. This is definitely one of the best ties I’ve ever owned and it’s a keeper in my closet. It's actually available in 10 trendy color combination (spring & summer collections), you can check them out at Bows 'N Ties website. They also have numerous selections of ties that you can choose from.

They are giving away one PUCCINI spring/summer tie collection and you can win it by joining the giveaway. Send your entries now. This giveaway starts today 02/17/2013 and ends on 03/10/2013. Hurry and join now, the more entries you send the more chances of winning. Open to US residents only.

Shoes for the modern life




When I think about my most favorite and most comfortable pair of shoes I have ever owned there's only one pair that I can think of that really satisfied me the most and that's the dockside shoe made by Sebago. Other names you may be familiar with are boat shoes or top-siders. I can remember the first time I purchased a pair of dockside shoes. They fit so nice and were so comfortable. I didn't want to take them off. These shoes are considered the epitome of the casual shoe. Usually made of water and stain resistant leather and non-slip soles perfect for boating or just casual use hence the name boat shoe but if you want a good pair of boat shoes, expect to pay good money for them.

My wife has been reminding me that she wants to buy some comfortable shoes for going out in service since her shoes are wearing out and she complains about pain in her feet after several hours of walking. I asked her if she would like to pick something out in the Miz Mooz collection. Woman loved to shop for shoes so she jumped at the chance to pick out some new shoes. While browsing through the online website, she wanted to shop for some new boots. She loves the cowboy style boots. A good pair of boots when broken in properly can last a long time and they are so comfortable. She has some boot’s but she would like to buy a pair of these Frye Boots but in a darker color to make her look good in a pair of jeans.

Shopping is my wife’s weakness

Boy, am I glad that my wife is driving now. I go crazy when my wife asks me to take her to shopping because I know it takes forever for her to get done shopping. Usually, I’ll wait in the van with my children while she’s inside the store. She can’t seem to make up on her mind what and which clothes she’ll purchase. I patiently wait for her until she’s done because I will never win when I start argues with her about her shopping thing. Now that she can drive, she can go shopping alone without us bothering her.

I gave her money for shopping a few days ago and she bought some winter outfit for all of us. However, she bought a lot of kids outerwear clothing such as; winter hat, scarf, zip-front and hooded jackets, hooded vest and as well as boots. According to her, it was on sale. For the clothes that she purchased, it was indeed an excellent deal. That’s what I love about my wife, she is a wise buyer. She makes sure that she will save a lot of money from her purchased. She also uses some coupons and I don’t know where and how she got it from, but whatever it is, she’s smart.

You get what you pay for

I firmly believe that the price you pay for something reflects on the quality of that item. If your going to spend a little money on something, then the quality of that item is not going to be built to last and you will suffer. In the long run, you will be wasting your time and money. Take for instance a pair of work shoes. Twice a year, my wife and I have to go shopping for a new pair of work shoes for me because I don't have the kind of money needed to buy a quality pair of work boots. I usually go to a well known general merchandise store for my shoes. As a bus technician for MTS, I work full time and I'm really hard on my work shoes. I often work around various oils and greases and they sometimes get on my shoes. Also, when I'm walking around the shop, sometimes I can't avoid walking in little spots of oils or greases on the floor so I need to wear a quality shoe that's chemical resistant and slip resistant so that I won't slip and hurt myself.

This time around, my wife wants me to reach into my wallet a lot deeper and stop buying cheap shoes. She gave me a suggestion to shop online at zappos because the quality and craftsmanship is extremely well. I would like to go have my foot measured first before I consider ordering any shoes online so that I can get my order right the first time. I told my wife I would like to order these ecco iron cap toe boot I like the low cut feature and included design of the steel toe cap. Two things that's really neat about zappos is the Free Shipping and 365 day return policy. Yep, you can return your items without any questions as long as they are in the same condition as when you purchased them. How do like that?
