The Best Personalized Gifts for Different Occasions

September 13, 2012 by Samantha 4 Comments

Looking for something memorable as a gift? Bored of the usual things? Personalized cards are a great way of making a standard item that you can otherwise just buy from a shop into something that’s out of the ordinary and special. The cards at www.gettingpersonal.co.uk come with free UK delivery, making the whole experience even more simple and easy to use.

One of the most popular choices on the website is to upload your own photo and make a completely unique card that no one else will ever have. It comes in a glossy laminated finish and you can have it in full colour print. You can either post it straight from the website, or have it posted to yourself with an envelope so you can deliver it to the recipient yourself. It can become a really sweet gesture to accompany christening gifts for example.

From creative genius Tim Burton (“Alice in Wonderland,” The Nightmare Before Christmas”) comes “Frankenweenie,” a heartwarming tale about a boy and his dog. After unexpectedly losing his beloved dog Sparky, young Victor harnesses the power of science to bring his best friend back to life—with just a few minor adjustments.

Shopping at Cookies Kids @CookiesKids with #Cbias

September 12, 2012 by Samantha 11 Comments

We always enjoy shopping at Cookies Kids. You can shop both online and in stores (if you are local to the NYC area) and enjoy great prices, great style, and an easy shopping experience. My son just started Kindergarten, and needless to say- his wardrobe needed some sprucing up.

My little guy has a uniform he needs to wear to school, and Cookies Kids specializes in kids school uniforms. They have tons of colors, styles, and brands available- our favorite is French Toast. He loves his new pants and sweater by French Toast that we got at Cookies Kids- in fact, we bought almost his entire wardrobe for back-to-school at Cookies Kids. Fast and easy online shopping, and we really do prefer French Toast, and all the things we needed at a great price, with free shipping available.

(You can get free shipping too- just use this code- havesippywilltravel)

He also needed a new swim set for our upcoming travels- he really grew this summer, and since we are always on the go- Cookies Kids to the rescue with this adorable set on sale for under $10. You can’t even get the swim shirt for that price most of the time, in most stores. What a Deal!

If you have never shopped with Cookies Kids, you are truly missing out. We are true fans, and recommend the store to anyone and everyone. While many companies promise good service and returns when needed, Cookies has proven it. If you don’t want your item for whatever reason, you can ship it back and get it replaced with no hassles at all. Of course, you can also exchange in stores if you prefer.

While we were there, we were able to try out the new AvaKids app- with an iPad available to use right in the store- that helps you choose the right size and items for your children, even as they grow.

AlvaKids is a service for children’s apparel sizing recommendations. The
app/widget allows users to create an account on the mobile application or through using
the widget on retailers’ websites. Once the account has been created, the user can
make a profile for their children. These profiles hold basic measurement information
as well as some background information about the child. All of this data is used by
the AlvaKids proprietary algorithm to create a personalized sizing recommendation.
Using the account credentials the profiles can be accessed through the mobile
application and the online widget.

Features
– Create kids’ size profiles based on basic body measurements

#searsStyle #NYFW Blogger Brunch

September 12, 2012 by Samantha 6 Comments

It is that time of year again- Fashion Week! It is so much fun seeing all the new styles and watching what the designers will come up with next. I had the pleasure of attending the SearsStyle Blogger Brunch, and got up close and personal with the latest styles from Sears.

Some people don’t think about Sears when it comes to shopping for clothes, but they are missing out. You can find tons of great brands and sizes, from infant, to kids, Jr.s, Womens, Mens, and Plus Size all in one place. Easy peasy one stop shopping. Then you can head on over to the other departments, and get what you need for your home. Love the convenience factor.

My Little Man and I hopped on over to the brunch just after his Kindergarten orientation. He was one of 3 dudes in the room, LOL.

We not only got the chance to see some of the latest from collections like Bongo and the new Kardashian likes, but we were also able to choose a pair of jeans we like, so we can be in the most [Read more…]

Halo Sleep Sack Crib Set Review & Giveaway @HaloSleepSack

September 12, 2012 by Samantha 32 Comments

With the American Academy of Pediatrics now saying “no” to crib bumpers, HALO Innovations has introduced its own Safe Sleep Crib Setdesigned to create an attractive and safe sleep environment for babies.

This five piece HALO Safe Sleep Crib Set consists of a Halo Sleepsack wearable blanket, SleepSack Swaddle, both in 100% cotton; two coordinating crib sheets in soft cotton jersey; and a matching crib skirt.

What HALO has to say:

“Too often parents ‘overdress’ the crib with quilt and bumpers, both of which can pose a breathing threat for baby,” comments Bill Schmid, founder of Halo Innovations. “The Halo SleepSack and SleepSack Swaddle are the only things a baby needs in the crib to stay warm and sleeping safely, and the soft jersey sheet provides a snug fit on the mattress.

My thoughts:

I absolutely LOVE everything about this set!! It is an amazing set that has been great for my girls! My oldest daughter had a SleepSack swaddle when she was younger, but I never realized that this Set was available. [Read more…]
