Smiles that Rock Contest and a @Crest 3D Collection #Giveaway!

November 11, 2011 By 76 Comments

I’ll let you in on a little secret… I secretly wish that I had the talent to be the next big thing.  I know it’s insane for an overweight stay at home mom in her early thirties to even think that this dream is possible but you never know.  Consider this post the closest thing that I will ever get to putting this on my vision board.  In truth, I love to sing but my brother always told me that I sounded like a dying cow so the only public appearance my singing voice ever made was at a concert solo in the fifth grade.  After that night my career was over and I stuck to singing in the shower. 

I have been an American Idol fan since its inception but I never had the balls to audition.  I still don’t – but now that I am a huge X Factor fan too all hope is not lost because they have that illustrious over 30 category that I fall into.  I can’t help but think how great it would be if one day my dream became a reality.

I guess for now I will have to settle for just having a gorgeous Rock Star Smile, courtesy of good hygiene and Crest 3D White products that I love.  I started using Crest 3D White Toothpaste over the summer and in September I tried out the 2 Hour Whitening Strips kit.  Both products are amazing separately but together they helped give me that extra boost for a rock star white smile.  Read my review of the whitening strips or just take a quick look at my before and after smile on the right.

“Smiles That Rock” Contest Presented by Crest 3D White and Billboard

Do you have smile that rocks too?  Would you want to flaunt your amazing smile on a Billboard magazine cover?  Well put your money where your mouth is – literally.  If you have the best Rock Star smile you could win a trip for two to the 2011 Women in Music Event, where you can walk the red carpet and flash pearly whites at a real rock star event!  I know that I’m entering cause for me this would almost be as good as having the chance to be on the X Factor – almost.

Entry is super easy too.  All you have to do is upload your picture to the widget and come up with a catchy headline to tag it with.  That’s it!  Check out the one I created!  It ROCKS, I know :D

It takes certain flair of confidence to brighten up a magazine cover like a true music star. Show us your most sparkling and stand-out smile by making a Billboard cover of your own, and you could win a real red carpet experience at Billboard’s Women In Music event on December 2nd in New York City — featuring the 2011 Billboard Woman of the Year honoree Taylor Swift — courtesy of Crest 3D White, the #1 most awarded whitening brand recognized by top beauty magazine editors, and Billboard, the #1 music brand.

Kingston DataTraveler 109 with urDrive #Review & #Giveaway #CleverUrDrive #spon

November 11, 2011 By 62 Comments

Thank you to Kingston for sponsoring this review. Please ; click here to learn more about Kingston. I was selected for this sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective. All opinions are my own.

 

 

I must admit that I’m not the most tech savvy girl.  I consider my skills to be on the average spectrum of things.  So when I heard about Kingston urDrive flash drives had to do a little research on my end to figure out exactly what they are all about and what makes them different from your average run of the mill data storage device.

I was sent the 8GB Kingston DataTraveler 109 with urDrive software USB Flash drive for review.  Research always works much better with a hands on approach in my experience, and let me say, I’m quite impressed!  Basically the urDrive is preloaded software that pops up on any PC and acts like a portable desktop.  The interface actually feels extremely similar to the program that my husband’s company uses when he wants access to the company intranet from home.  After he logs in the company desktop appears on the screen and all work done is saved to the U drive associated with his log in.  Check out this video to get a better picture -

 

Cool right?  The Kingston urDrive software allows the user to organize files, photos, videos, music and more on the go.  There are tons of great features included like a Norton PC Checkup, internet browser, an additional 6GB of storage, access to games and the urDrive Store where you can purchase and download tons of great apps and popular games like Bejeweld 3 (my favorite) and Plants vs. Zombies (hubby and the kids favorite).  I have to say though that my favorite feature included with this gem of technology is Fooz Kids!  My boys love their Fooz Kids and to be able to download the software while on vacation at grandma’s this Thanksgiving will be so awesome!  We have a premium account so once the software is downloaded once we log in it will be good to go!

I love that I can take new pictures, videos, games and Fooz Kids to grandma’s for Thanksgiving.  We will be staying with them for three days so having access to these items is priceless!  I know that the boys will love sharing the Fooz Kids site with our extended family and my mother-in-law will thank me for providing something to keep the boys busy with.

I also really like how small and compact the DataTraveler 109 is.  It can easily be attached to a lanyard or keyring plus it’s capless so you don’t have to worry about losing that either. The DataTraveler 109 is available in seven different fashionable colors.  I think that these would make some great stocking stuffers or gift for the white elephant company Christmas party – just sayin’.

 

Buy It!

You can purchase the fashion forward Kingston Technology DataTraveler 109 for $9.95.

 

Win It!

Kingston Technology is offering one lucky Pretty Pink Momma reader a DataTraveler 109 urDrive USB five pack valued at $50!

 

Entry is easy!  Use the Rafflecopter widget below to enter.  For the mandatory entry I would like a comment on this post telling me what you like most about the urDrive software.

Have Fun Dropping the LB’s with This Cool #WeightWatchers by #Conair Scale

November 11, 2011 By Leave a Comment

Check Out This Beautiful New Scale from Weight Watchers by Conair

For some of us, jumping on the scale is not our idea of a good time.  It can be depressing to see the numbers go up, exciting to see the numbers go down – either way – it’s a roller coaster ride.  But recently getting on the scale has gotten a lot more fun!

I received the Weight Watchers Glass Body Analysis Scale Model WW52 by Conair for review and I have never been more addicted to weighimg myself.  It’s nuts!  I  love the look, the style, the extra large blue backlight, but most of all, the ridiculously cool ways to measure my body weight.

This scale isn’t your average run of the mill scale.  It measures your body fat, body water, bone mass and tells you your BMI.  Over the last couple of months I have lost about 15 lbs and I love seeing the breakdown of my body fat percentage going down. It’s like an entirely differently goal to achieve than just hitting your total weight loss goal in pounds.  There is so much that contributes to your total weight that its great to see all of these tools combined in one sleek, sexy scale.

Another plus is that it was easy to program.  I even did it myself, which is huge for me because usually I leave any set up for these types of things for my husband to tackle.

Scale Features Include:

  • Affordable – Retails for $49.99
  • 4 User Memory
  • Extra Large 2 Line LCD with Blue Backlight
  • 400 lb Capacity
  • Impact-Resistant Tempered Safety Glass Platform
  • Multiple Load Cell Technology
  • Easy to Use Tap Feature that Turns Scale Off and On
  • Measures Each User’s Body Fat, Body Water and Bone Mass
  • Displays User’s BMI
  • Operates on 4 AAA Batteries

 

I’ll say it again, I LOVE this scale!  This would make an elegant addition to any bathroom.  If you are looking for an affordable, beautiful scale with tons of great features you need this scale.  It would also make a great gift for someone that is working towards a healthier body so keep it in mind for the health conscious person on your holiday gift list.  The WW52 and other Weight Watchers Scales by Conair are available at several retailers nationwide.

 

*I received the above mentioned scale in exchange for an honest review of the product.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.

My Feet are Loving #Naturalizer’s Fall 2011 Collection – #Review & #Giveaway #MyBlogSpark

November 3, 2011 By 167 Comments

Typically I live in flip flops most of the year because I live in yoga pants and stay at home about 90% of the time.  All things considered I do live in the Northwest and when it rains, it pours.  The change in seasons from fall to winter makes for wet, if not frosty, mornings.  When this happens my beloved flip flops just won’t do.  When it comes to needing a real shoe, and a comfortable pair at that, I fall back on my favorite pair of Naturalizers to keep my feet warm, dry and happy.

In August I shared with you that I really love my Naturalizer shoes.  They are my favorite brand because not only are they chic and stylish but they fit my feet from the moment that I slip them on.  Which is really important for me because I have wide feet, probably from all that flip flop wearing, and I hate that whole wearing in process.  You know what I’m talking about, when your pinky toe blisters for a week or two until finally all the rubbing and stretching out pays off and you can wear your shoes without cussing every other step.  Naturalizer is the only brand that fits like a glove from day one.

I moved this past year and in the process somehow I lost two pairs of my favorite fall boots.  I have no idea where they could be other than lost somewhere in the multitude of boxes in my garage. So naturally I was really excited when I learned that not only would I be receiving a pair of boots to review but they would be from my favorite brand!

There are so many gorgeous pairs of boots and shoes in the Naturalizer Fall 2011 Collection to choose from.  Tall boots are so in this season and I have been dying for a great pair.  My problem is that my calves are wider than most so they usually don’t fit the calf of the boot.  I love that Naturalizer offers a wide calf option for tall boots, perfect for a gal like me.

I chose to review the Dinka boots, featured left, and I love them!  They are so comfortable!  The lace up eyelets in the back are stylish and sexy.  The heel is 2.5″ tall and the perfect height in my opinion.  I can’t wear heels that are much taller than that because my legs just aren’t used it from all the flip flop wearing.  The Dinka’s also feature a smooth lining and the cushioning insole features N5 Comfort Elements.

I love, love, love these boots!  And from the rave reviews posted on the Naturalizer site I am clearly not the only one.  It’s so nice to have great looking boots that are comfortable and chic.

About Naturalizer and the Fall 2011 Collection

Turn Your #Favorite #Photos into a Canvas Print at Easy Canvas Prints – #Review & #Giveaway

October 31, 2011 By 40 Comments

I love taking pictures of my children and family, in fact, I think that it’s a rule in the mom handbook.  My husband and I make a point to take lots of pictures of the boys while they are growing up.  It’s extremely important to my husband because the first six years of his life he spent in his native country of El Salvador and he just doesn’t have a whole lot of pictures of himself from when he was a child.  I think he has about six or seven total.  So it has been a goal of ours that each of our boys have tons of pictures to look back at when then they are older.

One thing that we did for each of our boys when they were babies was to have their portrait taken and framed.  Now that they have all gotten bigger, but not too big, it’s time to get a large portrait of the three of them together.  We just never seemed to get the money together to set up a portrait session.  Thankfully last Thanksgiving we finally had a wonderful family picture session with a Seattle area photographer and we captured a priceless picture of all three of the boys together.  For the last 10 months I have been meaning to find out how I can get it put on a canvas but I have been putting it off because I thought that it just wasn’t in the budget.  So when an opportunity to review Easy Canvas Prints came to me I was super excited!

Easy Canvas Prints creates beautiful, high quality canvas prints from your favorite photos or designs.  I knew exactly which photo I wanted to see turned into a gorgeous canvas print, none other than the great shot of my three boys.  If for some reason you aren’t sure what you would like to create Easy Canvas Prints has a huge idea gallery at your disposal.  They even have ideas that are ready for you to print if you are are looking to add some art to your walls that isn’t a photo and need some inspiration.

In just four simple steps you can transform any picture or image into a canvas print!  First you choose your canvas size, if you can’t find the size you want you can choose a custom size.  Next upload your photo, you can choose files from your computer or even pictures from Facebook.  Once the photo is uploaded and adjusted the way that you like then you choose the border that you would like to see on your canvas.  I chose the image wrap option as opposed to the mirror or colored border options.  The last step is to choose any image effects you would like to add, if any, like black and white or sepia finishes or retouching areas if needed. Then, voila! Your canvas is ready to be ordered!

After I placed my order I was SO excited to see how it would turn out!  Luckily for me my canvas print came extremely fast, I think I had it in about a week’s time.  The day it came I couldn’t wait to get it out of the packing, which by the way, it was very securely wrapped and held perfectly protected in it’s box.

Here is what it looks like!  Drum roll please…

 

Aren’t my boys just the cutest?  It’s hard to believe that this picture was taken last Thanksgiving – boy how they have grown!  Check out how it looks on my wall next to the boys’ baby portraits:

 

The canvas itself is the same size as the other portraits but the frame is something that I might want to add later to make it fit in just a bit better.  I do love that the image is wrapped around the edge of the frame so that guests will see that all though there isn’t a frame the canvas has a finished look to it.  Here is a picture of the image wrap up close:

 

 

All in all, I love Easy Canvas Prints.  It really was an easy process to transform my favorite photo of my sons into a beautiful canvas that my husband and I will always treasure.  I would definitely go back to them for any future photos that I would like to see on my wall.  I’m even considering blowing up my Pretty Pink Momma logo into a canvas for my home office, I think that would be such a great way to define what my workspace is all about.

 

Easy Canvas Prints Sale!

Right now when you order from Easy Canvas Prints they are offering 25% off all canvas’ and free standard shipping!  This is such a great deal and I think that if you are looking to create a fantastic and thoughtful Christmas gift you should definitely take advantage of this sale!

#LadyAntebellum Newest #Album Own the Night is in Stores Now!

October 31, 2011 By Leave a Comment

On September 13th Lady Antebellum released their third album, Own the Night, through Capitol Nashville/EMI Records.  When I was offered the opportunity to review this album I jumped at the chance!  To be quite honest I haven’t been listening to country music lately but I know that I love the hit Need You Now by Lady Antebellum.   This group is wildly popular and given the chance to catch a listen to their new album I knew that  I would enjoy it.  And wow, I was SO right!  This new album is awesome!

My favorite song on the album is We Owned the Night followed by the very popular single Just a Kiss.  Some people like songs because of their lyrics and others like them for their instrumental components, I value a song by both.  Many of the songs on this album resonate with me and I could listen to them over and over again.

Take a listen to my favorite, We Owned the Night, by clicking here.

Lady Antebellum’s third album, Own The Night is scheduled for release Sept. 13. The upcoming 12-cut set features the band’s fastest rising single to date, “Just a Kiss” plus 11 additional tracks. Charles, Hillary and Dave wrote or co-wrote 10 of the songs, including “We Owned The Night.”

“‘We Owned The Night’ opens the album, “says Dave excitedly, “and I really love this song. We reworked the title slightly to make it present tense for the album title–Own The Night. When people come out to our live show it’s a call to action. Be confident, live in the moment and enjoy the experiences you’re going through—own them. That’s the premise of what we wanted to say.”

We Own the Night 2011 Concert Tour Dates

Lady Antebellum is going on a Own the Night Tour!  This will be HUGE for Lady Antebellum fans.  Over the summer Lady Antebellum performed at the Oregon State Jamboree in our tiny little town of Sweet Home, OR.  The show took place in the high school field, and it was such a sight to see all the fans hoarding our tiny little town, so excited to see Lady Antebellum.  My husband had complimentary tickets to the show but seeing as he had to work that day we gave our tickets to some of his employees to enjoy.  It was still really amazing to hear Lady Antebellum and see all the fans from street near the high school.  I heard that they put on quite a show!

Simply Charmed Magnetic #Wine Charm #Review & #Giveaway @wineswithcharm

October 28, 2011 By 25 Comments

 

I’m not much of a wine drinker but even I can’t ignore a completely fantastic idea when I see it.  Wine glass charms that hang from the stem have been around for awhile, I myself have even made some as gifts, but recently I was introduced to magnetic wine charms created by Simply Charmed, thanks to Friends You Love.  Let me tell you, they blow any other wine glass charm that I have seen out of the water!  Also, because no stem is required, they are multi-purpose and can be used on anything to beer glasses to mason jars.

As someone who doesn’t even own a wine glass the ability to own charms that work for guests as well as my own personal needs is very appealing. I love that these charms work on wine glasses, beer mugs, keg cups and more.  It’s great that they are versatile no matter what type of shin dig that you are hosting.  Check out this example of a beer and pretzel party:

See?  Aren’t they cool?  Now everyone will know whose cup is whose!  They cling to just about anything because of the ridiculously strong magnet.  Just be careful when attaching them to glass because due to their super strong magnetic power they can cling very quickly which could cause thin glass to break if you’re not careful.  I didn’t have any problems attaching mine to one of my kitchen glasses that I was experimenting with. Plus they conveniently can be placed back in their package when you are done using them and store them on the side of the refrigerator for future use.

For review I received a cute set of butterflies that I practiced putting on all types of glasses and cups.  I realized that you could even use them on a pyrex dish too.  I thought that using them on a dish, near the rim or on the cover, might be a great way to indicate to guests dishes that have onions or if someone has an allergy they know to avoid the dish.  Probably not a good idea with children though just in case the little magnet slides off into the food.  Otherwise though I think it would be a great idea!

Enjoy Fall with #Yummy Godiva #Coffee, #Pumpkin Spice and Caramel Pecan Bark – #Review & #Giveaway

October 27, 2011 By 98 Comments

I must admit, I’m not much of a coffee drinker, but the new flavors from Godiva Coffee sound so heavenly even I want to pour myself a cup!  With flavors like Pumpkin Spice and Caramel Pecan Bark who wouldn’t want one, am I right?  These two flavors are the perfect compliment to the fall weather and sound like the best way to wind down and relax after being out in the crisp cold air.

To be honest, because I am not a coffee drinker I wouldn’t be the best person to review Godiva Coffee so to be fair I shared the flavors with some of my friends that are avid coffeeCaramel Pecan Bark drinkers to get their honest take.  Which I thought was fitting seeing as I received these Godiva Coffee samples through my partnership with Friends You Love, in which Godiva Coffee is one of the event sponsors.

Pumpkin Spice

So what did my friends think?  Each of them felt that the Pumpkin Spice was the best tasting pumpkin flavored coffee ever!  They also thought that the

Caramel Pecan Bark flavor was good too.  Especially when their favorite creamer was added to it.

One thing that I can relate to is the love of the smell of coffee.  We all agreed that the aroma that comes from these coffees is heavenly!  It is such a pleasing scent that fills the entire house and makes it feel so home-y and just in time for the holidays too.

Try out these great Godiva Coffees for yourself!  Be sure to grab this Godiva Coffee coupons to save $2 off of your purchase of Godiva coffee at your local grocery store. 

Win It!
