Morning!

Just a quick note to show you who won the Goody DoubleWear giveaway. It definitely generated quite some interest and the official number of ballots were 123 in total!

As for the lucky winner who will receive what is shown in the photo above.

Artistik S.! Congratulations — please send me an e-mail (spiffykerms@gmail.com) with your full name, and mailing address so I can forward that onto the company.

Thanks for entering everyone. The contests aren’t over yet! There’s still two happening right now. $50 gift card to Spa Week, (US only) — and a $25 gift card to ErinCondren! Check them out.

I’m an old-school organizer and constantly write things down on sheets of paper, on my calendar or in a scrap book. I’m not one to use my cell phone or computer’s calendar. I’m not going to show you what my calendar looks like since it has personal info on it, but it is quite organized! Which is why I’m telling you about I site I found recently. As a Graphic Designer I can totally appreciate what everyone has done to make the website what it is today. I love everything about it.

What I personally love on the site is the personalized weekly planners you can buy. All sorts of designs, all kinds of variety.

The marketing department at Erincondren.com graciously gave me a $25.00 gift card to use on their website for my readers! One lucky person will be able to win this gift card and either put it towards something big, or personalize their own notepads and still have a few dollars left over. I also like the iPad stickers. There’s a ton to choose from, so have fun with it!

Just use the rafflecopter form below to enter the contest. Good luck all! Wish I could enter ;)

Sportin’ my first February 2012 outfit of the work week. Hope everyone had a great week. I find that lately Tuesday’s are really hard to get through and I don’t know why. It’s almost like I don’t feel like doing anything. It’s been going on like that for now two Tuesdays in a row, haha.

Also! Stay tuned for tomorrow as I’m going to be doing a giveaway for something from the Erin Condren store—her site is super great and keeps an organized person happy. I need to pick up one of the personalized journals on there. Anyway, I won’t get into it too much, as you’ll see tomorrow morning. Be sure to come back! But for now I’m going to show you my OOTWW and play a little more of yoyoplay for yomega before I head into work.

Care to share what your favorite outfit that you wore this week?

Just a quick reminder mentioning my other website again. It’s called Locupleto and it’s my “coupon saving” site. There’s always a link on the right hand side bar if you happen to forget. I don’t update it as much as I do this one. Mainly only when I see some really great deals that I can’t not share. Know what I mean?

On my coupon site earlier today I posted that well.ca is having a few freebie giveaways when you purchase off their site. They have everything a drug store and small grocery store would. But they probably don’t have a whispbar roof rack. Sorry. Well.ca also offers free shipping to Canadians, always. Which is always a nice added bonus. Go ahead and check out Locupleto and save yourself some dollah bills.

Well! I’m off to CrossFit, night all!

Just because I do a lot of reviews and giveaways in the run of an average month, doesn’t mean that I’m accepting anyone and everyone who e-mails me. Not everyone who contacts me, makes it on this blog. If you ever have any questions about whether or not I got a product for free to review, I do mention it in my blog post. If not, you can always question me in the comments below. Some of my reviews are even products I purchased myself.

Not every company gets a positive review from me. Vasanti has given me 3 great products to try out from bronzer, to mascara and eye cream. The eye cream made my eyes puff up. I’m just telling it like it is. It was strange though since it was a de-puffing cream, and had 4.5 stars out of 5 with 200+ reviews on their site.

Some PR companies don’t seem that internet savvy and I almost always delete the e-mails as soon as I see Hello Blogger, or just a plain simple Hello. They are most likely getting my gmail e-mail address from the right hand side of my bio here on my website and the third word, I say my first name. It’s a real pain in the arse to see something so informal, especially if that company wants me to help them! No way in the freaking world. You address me just like any other personal dealings. Just because it’s not face-to-face doesn’t mean that it should be addressed otherwise. It shows they did their research if they address me by Nancy, and not by spiffykerms, or hello or hello blogger.

I didn’t write this blog post because of a particular instance. I just want my readers to be able to relate to me, trust my reviews and continue to be a reader of spiffykerms.com :)

Now, off to read about ct electricity! Bye :)

I’m blogging like a monster lately. How about we do a re-cap in case you missed some things you may be interested in reading here!

• My skin saviors for dry winters.
• Why is CrossFit so effective?
• How to store your grocery bags neatly!
• **GIVEAWAY** Trop50 is giving away a $50 gift card to Spa Week
• **GIVEAWAY** Win 3 packs of Goody DoubleWear hair elastics.
• Marcelle BB Cream recap, I LOVE it.

As I said I’ve been on a blogging spree blogging about guitar easy songs and everything in between. What does everyone have planned for this Wednesday evening? I’m starving, so I’m going to have supper basically all made for me when I get back from CrossFit.

Morning all!It’s hump-day, almost the weekend yet again. Boy the years are just flying right on by, aren’t they!?

I wanted to make a quick blog post to tell you about something. On Monday I was featured for the forth time on ActiveWearUSAs website. This time the topic was: Makeup at the Gym— is it ever okay?

Leave a comment either here, or on ActiveWearUSA’s site. So, do you think it’s okay to wear makeup to the gym? See what I think! As long as you’re not smokin la flor dominicana cigars you’re probably okay with makeup at the gym ;)

With the amount of giggling that Julie and I do, you would think that we haven’t seen each other in months and had tons of catching up to do. That’s what our server at the local Boston Pizza up the road, thought of us when we dropped in for lunch randomly on Monday afternoon. No, we just work across the hall from each other and make everyone want to work with us when we go out and have fun.

We love pizza! This is my excited face.

Can you please take our picture for my blog Mister Danny server guy? Thanks friendly man!

Jule-ster had a coupon to use. She’s a learnin’! Saving money = awesome.Full on sugar pepsi. This girl’s gonna be hyper. A personalized Rustic Italian, for the lil’ Italian lady.  Looks like love, right? I had a deluxe pizza, and I posed kinda creepy looking so you’re not going to get to see that one.

By the end of our lunch hour, we were the only one’s in the entire restaurant and couldn’t get our server’s attention for more (!!) pepsi, and our bill at the end of the lunch. Plus, heck man—we were on a time limit. We only got an hour for lunch. It was a tad annoying.

Love breaking up the day with a lunch time date with a co-worker (and not having to get HCG shots Austin done)! So fun!

How I Style… edition 11, moses!

Last week you saw how I styled my favorite brown cardigans. This week isn’t much different. It’s how I style beige cardigans! Ha.There’s a lot. Again. Don’t need a degree online to know I like my neutrals.

Check out previous How I Style posts below:

Week 1 // Week 2 // Week 3 // Week 4 // Week 5 // Week 6 // Week 7 // Week 8 // Week 9 // Week 10 //

ANOTHER surprise giveaway for you guys today! I didn’t realize that Tropicana wanted me to publish my blog post before the end of January so here I am trying to get this together for you guys. My coupons haven’t arrived in the mail yet—they’re getting sent in from the United States. But I wanted to post the giveaway up so you guys can be eligible to win a $50 Spa & Wellness Gift Cards by Spa Week.

I also wanted to mention the new juice that came out which is called Trop50. It has 50% less sugar and calories with no artificial sweeteners. You can even get a coupon code for $1.00 off Trop50 and enter a  sweepstakes  for a $1000 gift card (no purchase necessary). You just have to tell them what your New Years resolution was. It ends today though, so hurry on over and see Official Rules for details.

What is Trop50?

The reason I had no trouble posting the giveaway is that I remember trying the Trop50 juice out back in August when I was in San Diego for BlogHer, not that you guys would be getting it – the winner remember will get a $50 gift card to Spa Week. Back to Trop50: It was refreshing, and I remember drinking the pink flavored one which is appropriately called pink lemonade.

1 Winner will be chosen for the $50 gift card, and it’s only open to residents of the USA. Enter below:
