The winner of my Sammydress $20 giftcard is...
Entry # 9 Melissa from ChinkyMel's Corner
Congrats,I will be contacting you through email soon =)
I wanted to do a bit more for today's post, but I have been so busy. My attempts to get my college stuff done before vacation, didn't happen, so I will need to bring that with me (it's only a little bit) and I also need to bring all my tax forms as well so I can fill out the fafsa when Jan. 1st hits since I won't be back till the 2nd. I haven't actually packed yet either which is not a good thing to say, but I am multitasking right now between blogging, packing, and eating! I find packing to be super tiring, so blogging helps me relax!

The first package that I opened was the one from Amazon.
In the amazon box, I had ordered 3 things. I got 2 bags of Hazel hamster food (the other bag is already open and with my hamster!) I needed 2 2lb bags because that is the only way I would have gotten free shipping from Amazon! There is no way I was paying $10 to ship stuff to me when I could buy another bag of food with that money and get free shipping!
This hamster food is the best hamster food on the market for any hamster because of it's nutritional content. I will pair this food with the oxbow pallets and a daily treat and she is going to have the best, and healthiest food possible.It has lots of protein, just the right amount of fat and low sugar content. The only thing that I have to do is pick out the sunflower seeds since I like to hand feed it to her. (That is what I spent a good chunk of my night doing yesterday!)
The other item in my box is the canon Rc-6 Wireless Remote Controller.This remote is suppose to make taking pictures much easier since it allows you to take pictures without being behind the camera. This is perfect for my when I take my pictures because often times, I don't have someone helping me out and it's hard to get my camera to focus without me standing there! With this remote, hopefully my issue will be solved!
This remote is sold on the canon website for $30 and only ~19-20 on amazon! I was very fortunate because right before checkout, Amazon gave me a promotion (which I am still not clear why) and made the remote 8 something instead of 19!! Could it be because I recently brought a camera from them?

Don't mind the stickers.. they are for privacy reasons =) |

This box is beautiful! |
Inside the package, I found a very fancy looking black box with the words Dahlia Wolf on it. I opened the box and inside, I found my top! It was packaged so nicely and everything just felt so professionally done. I could not believe that it was mine! The top is even called "The Mindy Top!"
Here is a quick look at it-
On the side of the top is the zipper. It goes all the way down. The zipper is quite smooth and pretty easy to get on! I am in love with my top and I can't wait to do an outfit post for it! (it'll probably be the first post I do when I come back from my vacation!)
I have one more thing to tell you guys about!! While I am away on vacation, I decided to leave you guys with an $100 GIVEAWAY to http://www.jollychic.com. I was contacted by them asking me to host this giveaway on my blog and I thought why not? I could run the giveaway while I am on vacation and choose the winner when I get back! How perfect is that!
a Rafflecopter giveaway
Have you gotten anything from Amazon lately?
Who's used a remote controller for a camera before?
How would you style "The Mindy Top"?
Great giveaway!

Thank you!!
Deletewow, good luck on finishing your college applications! I remember having to go through that process last year - hopefully it doesn't distract you too much from celebrating the holidays :)
ReplyDeleteI've never used a remote for a camera before but the concept always interested me, so I look forward to hearing how you like it when you get back.

hehe it didn't. Once christmas hit, I was done with everything and could have fun till New Years!! You are so lucky to be over with them.
DeleteI personally really do like the remote. It works well, though it's kinda of hard to hide in photos. I will be reviewing it in about a week or 2 after more use with it!
That cropped top is lovely!

I want invite you to Join to my SammyDress Christmas Giveaway! For win a Dress, Cardigan or Blazer~
Thanks!
DeleteYay! Another giveaway! :) which is perfect for me since I think I have gone broke shopping for all my friends.
ReplyDeleteOne item I'd love: http://www.jollychic.com/p/slim-fit-warm-pockets-long-winter-coats-with-fuax-fur-collar-g17929.html
Anyway, ''the Mindy Top'' looks amazing! I also have a bustier and for the summer I'd just wear it with shorts and a cardigan when it gets slightly chilly. During the autumn.. hmm.. maybe a leather jacket with leggings? I still haven't gotten the chance to mix and match with my bustier yet. :P Hope you'll have a fun trip in New York (take lots of pics! :D) and we'll be missing your posts. Until then, have a merry Christmas and happy holidays! :) xx

DeleteHey Mindy,
ReplyDeleteI hope you have an amazing time in New York!! I've been to so many different states but I have never been to NY (yet). I've always wanted to go though. Take lots of pics for us!! :) That's so cool that they designed a shirt especially for you. You're so lucky! It's crazy what awesome things happen in the blogging world. I started out just blogging about my personal life so I could look back later, and it turned into me blogging mostly for other people with similar interests as me. As bloggers we end up with a lot of really cool opportunities we wouldn't get otherwise. Anyway, thanks for the giveaway and I hope your vacation is awesome!!
xo, Sarah
Hustla, baby.
Thanks and ohh Ny is a huge must for your next trip! It's so much fun! hehe I did take a few pictures! Not much of the city itself sadly, but I promise to when I go in April for college visits =)
DeleteYes, it is really crazy! I never think of myself as anyone big . I'm just blogging as sort of a journal type thing like you! =)
I love the top! The pattern drew my attention! Anyways, goodluck everyone!
ReplyDeleteHappy holidays (:
