Never Leave Your House Again Without A Bagnet! #Giveaway

* This post is sponsored by Bagnet. All opinions are mine. *
Ok, all my women readers (and men readers can think of their wives or significant others) think back with me now....
Remember that time you went into that nasty bathroom stall at the movie theater, restaurant or gas station and you look and look and look for somewhere to put your purse... 
...and you can't find a hook or shelf ANYWHERE!

Where do you put your purse?

Do you struggle to hold it while you go to the bathroom? Do you risk setting it on the floor and having a gazillion germs and nastiness on it afterwards? Do you get up and skip the bathroom altogether? 
Well, now you have another, much better alternative and it is called the Bagnet! It is a super simple, super versatile and super amazing purse accessory that you are going to thank many, many times in the future!


Bagnet™ is a magnetic leather accessory that clips to your purse and magnetically hangs your purse in many different situations. Not only does it work in restroom stalls but also on barstools, chairs, tables, at concerts and sporting events, in arcades and casinos . . . the list goes on and on.

Clip your Bagnet™ to your purse strap or hardware - that's its new home! Leave your Bagnet™ there as an accessory. It contains strong magnets and when you encounter a restroom stall without a purse hook, your Bagnet™ is at the ready to magnetically hang your purse from the stall wall. Bagnet™ keeps your hands free and your purse safe from theft so you can take care of business! To prevent it from unintentionally sticking to objects simply clip it on the inside of your bag. Don't worry, it won't harm your cell phone or credit cards.


Bagnet™ comes in handy in dozens of situations and on countless objects. So far in just the couple weeks I have had it, I have used it many different ways - at the movie theater, in the bathroom, in my house - pretty much anywhere I can! My husband is SOO happy my purse doesn't lay around our house anymore taking up space. I just simple stick it to the back door so I don't forget it on my way out (mommy brain!) or stick it on our closet for easy access any time I need it.

I am using the Jane Bagnet™, a black pebbled leather. Jane fits the bill with just about any look, whether it's date night or work day - Jane's got you covered. Her hardware is a polished nickel open/close O-ring.


The Jane Bagnet holds a capacity of 9 lbs so even my heaviest purses can get hung!

I just love finding ways wherever I go to use my Bagnet! Never again do I have to place my purse on nasty floors, lose it in my house somewhere or struggle with holding it when I don't want to! The Bagnet has seriously become a lifesaver many, many times! It amazes me that such a simple concept can not be something I can't live without!

Buy It:

You can purchase Bagnets from their online store in many colors and weigh limits.

Trakline Belts by Kore Essentials

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.


Father's Day is coming up and most men want something practical that they can use every day. Not just something that sits in their closet or desk for years on end without being thought about.

So if you want to give Dad something he will LOVE and use every day, then let me recommend Trakline Belts by Kore Essentials.



This belt is so unique, comfortable, easy to use and durable - all characteristics any man will LOVE!!!

Instead of belt holes – Trakline uses a simple, hidden track with over 40+ size positions to adjust with – all in ¼” increments. In the other corner, most “regular belts” have just 5 holes, a full inch apart. The result = Trakline is 8X’s more adjustable, giving you a precise fit every time, and there’s no belt holes to stretch, crease, or add to. Ouch, that had to hurt. Sorry regular belt.
These belts are built to last. The belts are premium Full-Grain Leather (the highest grade of leather). Full-grain actually improves with age, conforming to your waist shape. The belt buckles are constructed of either solid stainless steel, or high-grade zinc alloy, depending on your choice.

Plus, they are so easy to use! Trakline leather belts fit any waist size from 24” up to 44” (XL sizes to 54"). Try on the belt, then trim off the excess leather (using household scissors) to attain your optimal size range. Then the 10" track creates a precise fit as your waist fluctuates in and out every day.

I gave my husband the BLACK EVOLVE BUCKLE & BELT (STAINLESS STEEL) for his birthday and he absolutely LOVES IT!

He has lost over 20 lbs recently and so his belts were way too big and had no holes left to adjust to. When I gave him this belt for his birthday, he instantly loved the ingenuity and the style!


He is so happy to have NO MORE BELT HOLES! He loves how easy it is to use and the precise, comfortable fit, that snugs to your exact waist size every time, no matter what you ate for lunch. And the discreet release tab under the buckle allows you to easily adjust, or remove entirely with the touch of a finger. It is so easy to use and so modern and sleek looking!

This particular belt has the EVOLVE solid stainless steel buckle face. The belt is Full-Grain leather, the outermost part of the cowhide and the best available grade (XL belts are Genuine Leather due to the length).


It is perfect for dress, work or play. He can wear it to work, around the house or out on a date with me!

At last, a men's belt that's smart, simple, and stylish for dress, work or casual situations.

Buy It: 

You can purchase Trakline Belts by Kore Essentials from the Kore Essentials online shop.

Hipsi Belts

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.



Looking for a smart HOLIDAY GIFT idea for $50? Look no further than HIPSI!

HIPSI belts are the belts that are SMARTER than all other belts …They reinvented the belt as you know it. You can wear it lo-rise to hi-rise and it is so comfortable to wear!


Hipsi is …

  • Totally FLAT buckle ... no lumps behind your tightest T's
  • Won’t hurt your shirt ... NO MORE HOLES in your shirt
  • Fits perfectly ... NO MORE TUGGING
  • Totally FUN ... 15 swappable buckle options and three strap colors ... and two more on the way!


I have always HATED wearing belts because I have never found one that is comfortable, doesn't cause a giant lump in the front of my pants and underneath shirts, and that is so cute! I have found a solution to all three with the HIPSI!

I love that they offer both black and brown straps and the variety of buckles are perfect for anyone's style!



My favorite set is the "BACK IN BLACK" BELT SET. This basic set goes with everything and is a streamlined look to complement all your favorite outfits.

hipsi "Back in Black" belt set includes a black strap with black stitching and one black genuine eelskin buckle.


One of my favorite combinations is the brown belt with the Diamond Ring Buckle! It is the perfect look for any holiday party!


The "DIAMOND RING" BUCKLE pairs beautifully with black, brown and champagne straps and is fun and flirty for any outfit!

I was skeptical at first that I may have finally found the perfect belt, but after wearing it several times with several different types of pants and outfits, I am truly a fan! If you hate belts but still wish you had one at times, definitely try Hipsi!!

Bazzle Baby



I have mentioned several times before how much of a sucker I am for cute baby accessories! I just love to accessorize my little girl (and my toddler boy too!) with cute accessories like cute headbands, cute bibs, shoes, socks, etc!

My daughter's latest cute accessories that she is showing off are from Bazzle Baby. They sent us some great hair accesssories and bibs for review and I have gotten so many compliments already!

Bazzle Baby is a family owned and operated company that strives to make fashionable, functionable and safe products for babies and toddlers.


When developing their products, they believe it is important not only to have each product tested by parents, but also to have them safety tested. Materials used in our products do not contain harsh chemicals that would irritate your baby or ours. Every product is designed with purpose and love in mind.

Their signature products (and one of the cutest!) is the Banda Bib! The Banda Bib has been awarded the influential iParenting HOT Best of Award and PTPA Media Inc’s Seal of Approval.

The Award-Winning BandaBib is a bandana style baby bib. Often confused for an article of clothing, the BandaBib is super stylish and functional. It is 100% Cotton designer print with a hi-dry cotton flannel backing and velcro closure. It is a super cute accessory for any drooling baby!


These Bandana Bib Set - Red Apples -Set of 3 is the super cute set I received for my daughter! Although she is past the drooling stage, she has been using it for snacks and less messy meals. They are pretty small so they don't work great for messy meals but these are definitely perfect for drooling babies because it sits perfectly under their chin and protects those cute clothes from getting soaked!


I also received the Little Digger Big Bib for my son! He is a big fan of trucks, diggers, and construction vehicles so he instantly was excited to wear this bib and he has refused to switch bibs to any other one! It fits comfortably for him and he can easily put it on and off with the velcro closure! It gives great coverage and protection from spills!


However, my favorite items have to be the cute accessories I received for my daughter: the Big Flower Headband - Lemon and the Crochet Beanie - Grape

Add a bit of Bb style to your sweet girl's wardrobe! She will be ADORABLE in this cotton, hand made, crocheted beanie! Its light weight and absolutely awesome for mild weather. The beanie is super functional...your little girlie will stay warm wearing it OR keep her little head sheltered from the sun!

With the Bb beanie you get 3 looks in 1! Wear it as pictured or take the removable gem Daisy off and just clip the flower in her hair on its own! Buy two beanies and mix and match your hats and flowers! This beanie is so cute and will be perfect for my daughter to wear everyday AND in pictures!


The cutest thing I received is the Big Flower Headband - Lemon! Headbands are a must for my "hair challenged" daughter and it makes such a difference when she wears one! This yellow headband matches so many of her cute outfits and it is really comfortable for her to wear! Plus, it is stretchy so it will fit for many years to come!


So as you can see, Bazzle Baby has everything you need to make your children the cutest children on the block! Whether you are catching drool, out on the town, or eating, your child will be super cute AND comfortable in the products from Bazzle Baby!

Buy It: You can purchase all the products above and much more from Bazzle Baby's website.
