Comfortable Shoes by Therafit

September 16, 2014 by Samantha 6 Comments

When you spend a lot of time on your feet, sight seeing and dashing from location to location like I do, you understand the importance of comfortable yet stylish shoes. A pair of shoes can make or break an outfit or an entire day of travel. When I saw that there are few things that are less frustrating than a pair of shoes that pinch or leave blisters while you are on the road, you will just have to trust me.

Therafit sent me a pair of Roma Women’s Sport Casual Shoe in Taupe to try out. Before I tell you what I thought of the shoe, let me tell you a little more about the style.

Roma follows a chic trend in footwear ; fashion athletic shoes. While the style is trendy, the shoes are made with your feet in mind. With arch support and deep heel cups, this shoe is made to provide relief from foot pain. In my case Therafit prevented the on my achy feet all day long woes.

Win a Women’s Watch From Original Grain

Disclosure: The watch from Original Grain was provided for me in order to facilitate my review. All opinions are my own and honest. I am disclosing this in accordance to FTC Guidelines. Please see “Disclose” tab for more information.

I am a big fan of jewelry. I absolutely love my new watch from Original Grain and have received a ton of compliments on it as well.

About Original Grain:

Original Grain emerged from the minds of three regular guys who grew up together intheir home state of Oregon. Brothers, Ryan and Andrew Beltran and their lifelong friend, Jasem. As natives of the beautiful Pacific Northwest, the cultural influence of the great outdoors was engrained in their minds from an early age. So, designing something that incorporated wood was a natural fit when they sat down to create the first line of OG watches.

To put things simply, the wood symbolizes the nature of the Pacific Northwest, a place known for it’s superior outdoor lifestyle, and the stainless steel represents the cityscape of Hong Kong, a hot pot for trendy fashion. And as we all know, a little California style never hurt anyone.

About Women’s Rosewood:

The women’s Rosewood is a slimmer, more feminine version of their Men’s Rosewood. When you can’t steal your boyfriends OG watch, you can keep this on call for the occasions that require a more delicate approach to accessorizing.

Our dog is incredibly important to us. Honestly if you ask my husband, he is a third child in our family. Brutus has been in our family for almost 7 years. We honestly only want the best for him. I was very excited to find out about Petbrosia, and I am sure that if you are an animal lover like us, you too will be impressed with them.

About Petbrosia:

Petbrosia began when Mickey and Rosie came into the owners family. His wife foudn a couple of puppies that had just been saved from a kill shelter and needed quick adoption.

Mickey and Rosie are Jack-Russell Terrier-Beagle mixes with distinct personalities. Rosie acts like a true terrier, chasing down tennis balls all day and playing tug-of-war with her rope toy. Mickey, on the other hand, is more like a beagle; he loves lounging on their deck, keeping watch for squirrels in their backyard.

As Rosie got older they realized that she wasn’t eating enough and was becoming too skinny. Micky, liked to lounge around a bit too much and was putting on some weight.

Traveling with the Kia Soul

September 10, 2014 by Samantha 9 Comments

When is a sporty fun car a bit more- when its got Soul, of course. The Kia Soul has just that, especially the new version of them.

The newest Kia Soul is built upon the concept design from Kia for the Trick’ster concept which first showed up at the Chicago 2012 auto show. The concept packed more power and all wheel drive traction into a nifty design showing promise of things to come. The new Soul is the next iteration toward that future with a sportier exterior closer to that of the Trick’ster.

Driving wise, the car is a dream. It is smooth and has pick up, but is not as sporty as the previous Soul. But something keep in mind is with the toned down engine from 6500 rpm’s to 6200 rpm’s, you do get a more automatic friendly vehicle. It does very well on gas, only making me tank up roughly 4 times to Virginia and back to NJ.

Arcopédico® Offers 10 Tips for Finding the Perfect Travel Shoe

September 9, 2014 by Samantha 3 Comments

Consider Comfort, Weight, Material and More for Light Feet from Airport to Exotic Destination

There’s nothing worse than a blister or aching arches to sabotage an ambitious travel itinerary. Arcopédico, maker of high-quality, Portuguese-made women’s comfort shoes, believes that finding the ideal travel shoe is at the crux of any successful adventure, whether walking the Great Wall of China or island-hopping in Fiji. After over 30 years in the business of crafting reliable, comfortable, durable and lightweight footwear for world-wandering women, Arcopédico offers its own “Top Ten” travel shoe tips to avoid the common pitfalls:

1. Travel Light. Look for shoes that won’t weigh you (or your luggage) down. At a mere 10.9 ounces, the Arcopédico L2 is an excellent option, and the flexible, metal-free shanks also make a strategic choice for airport security lines.

2. Keep it Compact. Instead of stiff, bulky footwear, stay streamlined with a shoe like the Cinderella (pictured top right; MSRP: $69), featuring an ultra-comfortable knit upper and slim enough to slide into pocket of a carry-on bag.

3. Have a Support System. Don’t sacrifice support for portability or style. Skip the paper-thin sandals and opt for lightweight, arch-supporting shoes like Arcopédico’s signature twin-arch construction, to help prevent foot fatigue, cramps, and other travel woes.

4. Plan to Get Dirty. The best travel shoes are ready for action and adventure—which can involve a bit of mud. Opt for a shoe that can easily be washed and ready to start anew tomorrow, such as Arcopédico’s washing-machine-friendly line of Lytech and Knit material shoes.

September 8, 2014 by Samantha 1 Comment

When can you step into the world of super heroes in the flesh? Of course, you need explosions and action, fights and excitement, but all the while in a safe and fun environment. The answer to the question is with Marvel Universe Live. This new live action show features The Avengers, Shield, Spider man, and even a few X-Men join in the adventure. This makes the show big and action packed, and of course not to be missed by any comic book or hero fan.

The story of Marvel Universe Live is easy enough to explain, the heroes must split up into teams to save the planet from some of Marvel universes fiercest foes, including Hydra, AIM, Lizard, Rhino, and Red Skull. But fear not the super hero bill is quite large two including Captain America, Captain Marvel, Thor, Iron Man, Spider Man, Hulk, Wolverine and Storm to name a few. All of which play key roles in saving the day. As the group splits to various parts of the world the action splits up too, from secret laboratories to snow capped mountains to the Statue of Liberty the scenes are big and feel like you are in the action. There is lots of fighting, lots of explosions and also motorcycles and tricks. One of the most memorable scenes would have to be Spider man and Thor at the Statue of Liberty. Not only is the statue represented but the high flying action between Spider-Man and his foes are represented in a big way including flying gliders, web slinging and of course Thor’s famous thunder hammer.
