String Beans Inc! Review

For today's review I will be showing you a few different items from an etsy shop by the name of String Beans Inc. This shop is filled with all types of wonderful items. Her shop is truly adorable and has some one of a kind pieces that blow my mind. Here you can find jewelry, sunglasses, purses, décor and so much more. She does such an amazing job at offering something for pretty much everyone. I'm almost certain you will be able to find something in this shop you just cant live without so I suggest checking it out for yourself :)

 

The very first item I will be sharing with all of you today is this bib style of necklace. I must say this isn't something I would typically wear but I love it. This would look great with so many different looks and you could really dress this up or even dress it down too. The fact that it's black too makes styling this piece a lot easier as well. This would look great with so many different colors, or even with just a black outfit too.

 

The thing that I really like about this necklace is that you tie it. You don't have to worry about fussing with a tiny clip to get this necklace on and off which can be a huge pain at times. I hate asking for help when putting on jewelry to be honest lol, so this makes it so much easier for me. I wont have to ask for help when wearing this which is a huge bonus for me!

 

This necklace is super light weight, it might not look like it is, but it truly is. I was quite surprised how light and comfy it would be. I thought this necklace was going to be kind of itchy too because I just figure on the back of the necklace it would be scratchy from the rhinestones, but the back of this necklace is completely flat. When this is laid against your chest you can hardly feel it

Retails:($15.00 not the same necklace but a very similar style)

 

Next up we have two pairs of earrings to take a closer look at. She sent me two of the same pair of earrings just different colors. These are stud style earrings, which are probably my favorite because you can literally wear these with anything. These match with everything and they are so easy to wear, and they are usually super comfortable as well. I never last a day or night ir I am wearing big earrings, the only ones that I usually end up keeping in my ears are studs. In my opinion you can never have to many right lol. The studs that she sent me are in a bronze/brown color and a blue color. They both have a matte finish to them which is super popular right now. I think the colors she sent me are gorgeous. I'll probably get the most use out of the blue ones, just because I think these are going to be perfect for the spring and summer time.

Retails:($5.00 for one pair)

 

The thing that really makes these stand our from your traditional stud earrings, is that these are pretty much two earrings in one! The backs of these you could easily flip around and were them reversed. I have seen some of these before and have been curious about them to be quite honest. I love the whole concept of these, just because you can get so much wear out of them and you get two different looks. They are pretty similar, but then again really different too. I am super excited about these.

 

The next item I have for you all today is this gorgeous necklace. I was unable to find the link for this one or something similar to this so please bare with me. Out of all the items she sent me I think this has to be my favorite one. This is gold necklace with silver crystal accents. I think it is truly gorgeous. I'm not typically a fan of gold, but in this case I am. The actual chain of this necklace is pretty heavy duty and seems pretty durable. This is another piece you could wear a million plus ways. These are the types of jewelry piece I am a big fan of. I like being able to wear my jewelry with all kinds of outfits, that is important to me. 

 

Here's a close up of the actual necklace so you can see the crystals on this piece. As you can see this is gorgeous. This is bib type style of necklace too which is one my new discovered favorites. I have to say I wore this out one time and was impressed with the quality of this piece. I received a million compliments as well on this. I do have to say I don't recommend wearing this when it's cold lol The metal gets freezing! This is a pretty heavy piece, but it is really comfortable as well.

I bet you will never guess what's inside this coral colored pouch..... lol

 

Sun glasses! Lol I'm sure you all guessed that from the picture above. Anyways she sent me this pair of gorgeous glasses that I am kind of obsessing over at the moment. This is totally outside my comfort zone completely. I usually wear aviators and that's all that I stick with. I am sooooo loving these however. It's not everyday you find glasses like these. They are so different and so funky which is why I really love them. The round style is such a hot trend right now.

Retails:($20.00 not the exact glasses but the same style)

 

I love the gold accents on the front of these it adds a little pizzazz to the glasses which is important of course. As you can see from the sides of these glasses they are covered in different colors.  It isn't in your face however. It isn't noticeable right at first but once you look at them you will start to notice. There are hints of pinks, blue, reds, oranges, and white. These are going to be perfect for summer time because they are going to match with some many outfits. Another thing I really like is that these glasses are super sturdy. The plastic that these are made out of is super durable and really thick. I am notorious for breaking sunglasses, but I'm sure these will stand up to my roughness with glasses which is really exciting!

 

I am in love with everything that I received from this shop! Everything has amazing quality, and everything is super trendy and stylish. Her prices are amazing as well. I would highly suggest having a look for yourself :)

Fashletics! Review & Coupon Code

 

I have another awesome review for you all today on something a little different, which is exciting! Today I will be reviewing a company by the name of Fashletics. This is an online store that creates some amazing jewelry pieces that are inspired by the passion for fitness. All the pieces on this website contain some type of fitness related pieces. I have never seen jewelry quite like this before. I love the message behind every piece on their site and that is SRENGTH

 

 

The amazing people at Fashletics let me choose one piece of jewelry from their online website to review and let me just tell you this was a very hard task to do, just because everything that is listed on their site is adorable! Inside my package contained two little cards the first one which is listed below contained some information on the company it self. I learned from reading this card that every piece of jewelry is hand made which is unbelievable. This makes me love this online store so much more lol. The other card that was included has a coupon code for all of you guys to use! I will make sure to include all that info at the bottom of this review for all of you to use to get your very own piece of jewelry from this store.

 

Each piece comes in it's own box. This is extremely important to me when buying jewelry online. I'm always curious to how something will be shipped and it's something that truly does say a lot about a company and how much they care about packaging their products up for their customers. The fact that their pieces come in small boxes really gave them an extra brownie point from me!

 

 

Like I said earlier in this blog post I had a really hard time picking out an item to review because I loved so many of them that were listed. This is the one I decided to go with because I felt like I would wear this one most often. This piece of jewelry is called the fearless spike which is pretty self explanatory to what this necklace looks like. As you can see from this picture it looks like a long spike. This spike measures to be 2.5 inches long. I would definitely say this would be a statement piece. I love how the chain that I received with my necklace is a really long one as well. Long necklaces are my favorite. For some reason if long necklaces aren't your thang, then have no fear! You can get whatever chain size is best for you! They have them in 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, and 30 inches so I'm sure you will be able to find the best size that is right for you and for your style!

Retails:($75.00)

 

Here is a side view of the necklace so you can see the word FEARLESS on the side. This necklace was hammered with the word fearless on it which is pretty cool. This means not all the necklaces are going to be identical which is probably my favorite part about it. It may have some flaws in it but that is just because this was hand made which is incredible.  From the side of this necklace you can see some hammer marks, which really gives this necklace some of it own character which I really enjoy. If this is your style of jewelry and your not a huge fan of the word fearless that isn't a huge worry either! They have a few more of these listed in their shop with words such as love, strength and few others, which gives you some more options to pick from. These necklaces are made from gun metal and sterling silver so you wont need to worry about these babies tarnishing which is the best part! These necklaces are made to last which is fabulous as well.

 

I love the whole idea behind the meaning these jewelry piece. Strength and fitness is such an important part of your life, and if doesn't happen to be it really should be. I think these would be great pieces to wear when you are working out to give you some extra motivation to keep you going which is so important because it's so easy to feel defeated at times. You just have to remember to keep on going!

 

 

The people at Fashletics were so nice to send me my own coupon code for all of you out there! Make sure you use "DaniiBabii" for 15% off your entire purchase!

Rhea Footwear! Review

 

For Today's review I'll be showing you all a pair of sandals. I think this will be the first footwear type of review on my blog which is pretty exciting. The online website I will be promoting today is called Rhea footwear. This online sells a wide range of shoes for men and women. They even have a wide rang of styles that available too such as sandals, flats and booties. There is truly a pair for anyone on this website. Each pair of shoes listed has amazing super grip technology on the bottom of each shoe.

 

 

The pair of shoes I will be reviewing and sharing with all of you today is called the "Eva White". These come in a huge variety of colors on their site such as  yellow and green and even have them in two toned colors as well which is pretty cool. Rhea Footwear let me pick which color I wanted to review which was awesome. I decided to go with white because it's just such a staple to your wardrobe and I knew that I would wear these ones the most. White goes with every outfit and you really can't go wrong with white sandals ever. I have been wearing these for the past few days and I can't get over how much I love these sandals. To be 100% honest with you all I'm not a huge fan of this "thong" style of sandals because they usually are just soooo uncomfortable, but these are so comfy it's not even funny! I'm so shocked with how well I really do like them. Most of the time it takes me and my feet a few days to get used to a pair of shoes and break them in, but that wasn't the case with these. My feet automatically loved these lol.

These sandals are made from Patent PU. They looks like they have a shiny service to them which concerned me at first because I have owned shoes like this before and they have been super slippery, but not with these. I was also extremely nervous when choosing the white because I know how prone white shoes are to not staying white lol. Especially when your name is Dani lol. I'm not the best person that can keep a pair of shoes white. The type of material used to make these shoes literally makes them stain resistant which is beyond amazing. I have been wearing these for the past few days and they still look brand new which blow my mind. Any other pair would have been stained and ruined by now. I am impressed with how well they are holding up.

 

Here you can see the amazing grips that are at the bottom of the shoes I mentioned in the beginning of the post. All the shoes on the site have grips like this. Let me just tell you these work great. I was wearing these the other night when it was down pouring outside and these worked wonders. Any other pair of shoes I might have been wearing I would have slipped! I feel like you all know what I'm talking about especially if you live in Florida like me. It's always raining off and on and if you are caught outside when its raining in flip flops it can be a little scary lol. I always take my time when walking because you can really hurt yourself. I did not feel like that at all when I wore these.

 

I am beyond in love with the shoes that I received from this company. They are super durable and perfect for me! They are comfy as well. I don't know what else I could ask for in a shoe, but these really hit every part that I am looking for in a sandal. I highly recommend checking these shoes out for yourself. They are perfect for the spring and summer and they are really worth the price I can assure you.

Treska! Review!

I have a very exciting review for you all today. I will reviewing an online store by the name of Treska. They make some beautiful statement pieces of jewelry, as well as handbags, scarfs, and other accessories. I must also add that all of the pieces on their online store 100% hand crafted and made in the U.S. Today I will reviewing two different jewelry pieces for you all. Let's get into the review!

 

 

The first item I have to share with all of you is statement necklace. This is a very loud piece lol. I must say this isn't something I would typically wear but I am in love with this piece to say the least. I love how unique this is. I love how wearing this piece on a plain basic outfit would really spice it up and make it look totally different which is pretty awesome. As you can tell from the picture there is so much going on with this necklace. As far as the color scheme goes I really love it! I love the blend of these oranges, blues, creams, and greens. They really all go together beautifully. I love the blend of the different colors. By having so many colors in one piece this really makes it a lot easier when it comes to pairing this piece with an outfit sense it will go with so many outfits.

As far as closure goes for this necklace this has something a little different. I have never seen something quite like this before. This is called a hook clasp. It's pretty self explanatory you simple slide the open hole on the hook and boom you are secure. The extra little notch on the hook makes sure it doesn't slide off. This is a pretty simple clasp but I love it! It's super easy to use to take on and off your jewelry. I hate asking people to help put my jewelry on for me and this is super simple you can easily do this by yourself.

 

Another reason I really love this piece is because how different all the beads are. There are four different rows when it comes to this necklace. Each one is filled with all different beads of different sizes, shapes, and colors. It is so funky but they really all do go together so perfectly. The material used to make these beads are different too they range from stone, plastic and wood beads.

 

 

 

The last item I have to review is the matching earrings of this set. I am truly in love with these too! I wouldn't say these are as loud as the earrings, but I would say these are pretty cute too! I think together wearing both piece your bound to get some compliments. You could easily wear these earrings on their own too which is nice. These earrings don't have as much color as the necklace which makes these a little more plain. These however are my favorite style of earrings. These are the dangle type, which looks good on pretty much everyone.

The back of these earrings are my favorite type as well! You simply just hook these in and your good to go. You don't need actual backs but you could wear them if you wanted. I love how they did include these with the earrings just in case you wanted to wear them. For my own personal preference I don't like wearing the plastic backs, it just creates an extra un-needed step for me which I don't usually have time for, but that's just me.

 

I have to say I love these jewelry piece. These are some gorgeous pieces and the are made beautifully. I am amazed with how well they have held up with me wearing them each a few times already. They both feel really sturdy and secure which is nice. I highly recommend checking this site out for some awesome pieces to add to your jewelry collection.

 

I really hope to work with Treska again and review some more products from them!

JDzigner! Review

 

I have a review for all of you today on an online store by the name of JDzigner. This jewelry designer creates several amazing pieces and she was able to send one to review which is awesome. Her online store is filled with all types of jewelry such as bracelets, necklaces, earrings. She even has an assortment of clothes such as leggings and dresses. Also there's even home décor item such as clocks, and coasters. This shop owner makes some pretty amazing things and has such a huge range which I just love. For the review today she sent me one of her aluminum cuff bracelets to try out and give my opinion on for you. So lets get into the review!

 

 

 

The bracelet that she sent me to review is in an adorable pink camo print which I love. Camo is pretty popular and I love how this is pink, it really has a nice girly feel to it which is what I am all about lol. Before I get on with reviewing the actual bracelet I have to first start off by saying this bracelet was shipped inside a small clear bag as you can see in the picture above. This was such a great idea, just to ensure that it arrived in perfect condition which is really did.

 

I was unable to find the actual link for this particular bracelet but I did include a link to the same bracelet just in a different pattern. The link I included is one of my favorite ones she has listed on her site, it reminds me a lot of Vera Bradley, so make sure you check this link out and have a look for yourself. I'm sure you will agree with me :)

Back to the bracelet review now. As you can see from this picture this bracelet is actually pretty thick. I was kind of surprised to be honest with you. I have several types of bracelets that are super similar to this style, but I can assure you I have never seen one quite like this before. Most of the ones that I already own are super flimsy and really thin. This one is super sturdy, which to me is really important when It comes to me jewelry. This honestly feels like a piece I could wear over and over again and It would never wear out. I wear jewelry a whole lot so having a piece like this is awesome.

 

 

I am super impressed with not only the quality of this bracelet but also how it looks. I absolutely am in love with the style of this bracelet. This isn't something you would see everyday and its definitely not something you see all the time in the stores. I love being a little different and standing out from the crowd and I think with owning this piece it will really help with that. I love how this bracelet is so versatile. You can really wear this to achieve a lot of different looks, you can dress this up or dress it down too which is awesome and I love pieces like this because they making styling so much easier. I wore this bracelet a few time already and I received so many compliments on it which always in nice to hear :)

 

Overall this bracelet is amazing hands down. It's really cute and pretty. It's really study and heavy duty and its just a nice piece to have. I would highly recommend checking these out on her website along with all her other items she has for sale. This shop owner is extremely talented and makes some amazing pieces. I am so honored that I got to work with her and I really hope to work with her again in the future.

AmyZolkowskiDesigns! Review

Today I have a very exciting review for you all. I will be reviewing an online Etsy shop that goes by the name of Amy Zolkowski Designs. Her online store sells al kinds of my handmade jewelry made by Amy herself. All of her pieces are one of a kind, and they all are just so gorgeous and unique.

 

 

One awesome thing about this shop is that all of her jewelry pieces are shipped in these nice boxes. Inside the boxes there is some extra cotton, which acts like a cushion or your jewelry. This is to ensure that all of your jewelry pieces arrive in perfect condition. This I can assure you happened. I love how she places each item in the boxes it adds a lot to the pieces, and it's really nice if you plan on giving any of her items as gifts, because they are already boxed up! That saves you an extra step which is something I'm sure everyone would appreciate.

 

 

The piece that Amy sent me to review is a gorgeous pair of earrings. Like I said previously all of her pieces are made one of a kind so I am unable to include the link for this actual item. I decided to include a link for a very similar item that is in her shop, just in case you are interested in buying a piece like this you know exactly where to go. As you can see the earrings that were sent to me are a pair of her wire wrapped earrings. I have gotten a few pieces of jewelry pieces with the similar style with the wire but I can honestly say these are nothing like what I have seen before. There are many things that really make these stand out for me. One being that the type of metal that she uses to create her pieces is oxidized and polished the copper, which is why it's the color that it is. I love the color of the copper and the color of the green bead on each earring. The color go great with each other and contrast really nicely together.I have never seen someone use a metal like this when making wire wrapped jewelry most of the time it ends up being just plain silver, so I really like how this is a little different.

Retails:($18.00)

 

I included a close up picture of these earrings so you can see the detail that was put into making them. As you can see above the bead, towards the top of the earring this is where all the wire wrapping is done. It looks amazing and pretty perfect if I do say so myself. These earrings really look like something you would find in the store. I would consider these earrings to be on the plain side, there isn't a lot going on with them which I really like as well. These earrings are pretty much easy to wear with any outfit. You can easily dress these earrings up, or you could dress them down as well. All of her jewelry pieces are topped with a protective coating which helps the jewelry from tarnishing which is amazing! That is something that I am constantly worrying about with my jewelry so it's nice to know that I will not have to worry when it comes to these earrings. I have to say after I received this package from Amy for the review I put these on instantly. These are my favorite style of earrings, the sort of dangle style. I think look the best on me. I thought these earrings were extremely comfortable and very light weight. I honestly forgot I was wearing them for a while at first, and they didn't irate my ears which was a huge plus as well.

Trust Fund Beauty! Review!

 

I have a review for you all today for a company by the name of Trust Fund Beauty. This is another company I have never heard of before doing my review for them. They are an online store that sells makeup. They have their own brand as well which is pretty cool, and they sell lipsticks and nail polishes. They even offer a subscription service which is pretty awesome.

 

 

 

Trust Fund Beauty decided to send me one of their products to try out for myself and they sent me a nail polish. The color that the sent me is called "I love my #selfie". I would describe this color to be a darker red. This color is almost like a berry color. I really love this color. I think this is the perfect color for pretty much all year round. I do have to say I don't normally paint my nails my self. I usually just go to the nail salon and get them done myself. I do have to say that I am so in love with this color I decided to try it out by painting my toes with it. I really was impressed with how well this painted on and how quickly it dried. I do have to admit i'm not the best nail painter lol but you wouldn't have guessed. This nail polish is really easy to paint on. The formula for the polish is beyond the best I have ever tried. I applied this to my nails just as is with no base coat or no top coat and it looked beautiful. I honestly don't think it needs any top coat. It looked like there was already one that was applied. I've had this on my nails for over a week and it still looks perfect. I am beyond impressed with this nail polish and I am so glad that is one for my own personal collection now.

Retails:($15.00)

 

 

I also would like to say that I love the bottle that these polishes come in. I think the square bottle is a little different and you really do get a lot of product in one of these bottles. Most of my nail polish bottles are rounded and it makes it really nice how this sticks out from all my others. Each polish also comes in a box just to give it a little extra protection when shipped out which is really nice as well.

 

 

I decided to include a picture of what this color looks like. I didn't want to include a picture of my toes because that would just be weird. I currently have acrylics on so I was unable to paint my finger nails. So this is just a swatch of the color on a plain white piece of paper. As you can see this is a very pigmented color. This nail polish swatch was done with just one swipe of the brush. A second coat is definitely not needed with this nail polish which is really awesome as well.

 

 

I highly suggest checking this online store out for yourself. I am in love with this polish and I hope to work with them again in the future!

Artsy Aries Designs! Review!

 

Today I have a product to review for all of you from an online store on Etsy that goes by the name of Artsy Aries Designs! I love getting to review homemade products, and I am super excited to share this store with all of you today! 

 

 

The product that was sent to me from this shop is a jewelry item. Jewelry items are always my favorite to review, and lets just be honest you truly can never have too much jewelry can you? Lol well I don't think you can. Jewelry can add so much to such a simple outfit. It really can make an outfit look so much different. This is why I am such a huge fan and have so much of it. I love being able to add just a simple piece and changing up my whole look! The item that was sent to me to review is a handmade beaded bracelet. Let me just tell you this is such a gorgeous piece. I was unable top find the exact link to this bracelet so below is a link to a similar bracelet just in different colors.

Retails:($22.00)

 

The color scheme for this bracelet is green and dark brown. I have to say these aren't colors I would typically go for. In this bracelet however I just love the two colors together. I think they balance out each other perfectly and I am actually super impressed with how much I love this piece of jewelry. I think both of these colors would pretty much go with any outfit. I am a a fan of having a lot of jewelry on at once and I think this will be perfect for when I layer bracelets on at once.

 

If you look closely at the image above you can really see how much detail was put into this bracelet. The beads are teeny tiny. I cant even imagine how long this took to make. I also wonder how many beads are on this bracelet too. I think this bracelet is gorgeous and truly is one of a kind. As you can see this bracelet just isn't simply beaded it also has a pattern to it. The description of this bracelet is that it looks like the Human DNA and it really does, it has a sort of spiral effect to it. I have to say she did an amazing job at creating this piece and it really is gorgeous. It feels pretty sturdy as well, which was something that I was concerned about because of all the little beads in this piece. I can happily say I have no concerns in wearing this bracelet and I am so excited to have this piece in my jewelry collection as well.

 

This shop owner is extremely talented and I highly suggest checking out her shop for yourself!
