Levin Over Ear Headsets Headphones with Microphone – Adjustable Foldable Wired Stereo Hi-Fi Lightweight Headphones for Kids/Teens/Adults (Purple/Yellow)

Posted in Earbuds/Headphones, Home and Outdoors, technologyTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 6 Comments

I do have many pairs of headphones, but use them at different places, and doing different jobs.  I wanted the Levin Over Ear Headsets Headphones with Microphone, as they are adjustable, foldable, and lightweight.

I wish that my granddaughters weren’t across the pond, as it would cost me more than the price of these headphones, to send them to my girls.

Straight out of the box, I put the cable into the headphones, and my smartphone, and went to Pandora.  I found Hallelujah, by Pentatonix, as this is one of the best songs to play, and get the full stereo effect.  The music was so amazing, that I got my husband to put them on, and listen too.  We were blown away, as it was if they were singing in our home.

The colors are great, purple, and yellow.

From the Amazon webpage: ‘Fashionable two-tone design, sports style and suitable for kids/teens/adults, make it the unique gift choice. PU protein leather with pillow-like softness, compact and lightweight design keep you feeling comfortable even after long time wearing.  [EXCELLENT SOUND QUALITY] Levin wired headphones over ear is tuned by excellent sound engineer and driven by 40

mm audio component. It’s specially designed for people looking for the enjoyment of high quality music and can be used by the web celebrity for the live Internet broadcast.’

I prefer to use my smaller earbuds for talking on the phone, but know that these will be used often, when I want the best quality music, to enjoy.

I did receive mine for free, but am seriously thinking of buying a pair for my granddaughter.

Sexy Slim Fit Stretchy Off Shoulder Long Sleeve Blouse Tops Shirt by Sarin Mathews

Posted in Clothing, Valentine's DayTagged , , , , , , , , , , 13 Comments

I recently had a dress from the Sarin Mathews line, and am just as delighted with the Sexy Slim Fit Stretchy Off the Shoulder Long Sleeve Blouse.

As soon as it arrived, I noticed how lightweight it is, and a soft, smooth material.  It is made of 95% Rayon & 5% Spandex.  There were so many colors to choose from, but I went for the red, as it goes well with my black jeans, leggings, and skirts.  The sizing goes from small to extra large.  You can choose from black, burgundy, dark blue, dark gray, royal blue, white, gray, purple, and of course the red, that I chose.

I love showing my neck, and back off, and you can pull it as low as you wish.  It stays in place, which is great, as I will be wearing it dancing.

So if you want a top/blouse/shirt that is thin, but warm, excellent quality, and looks great, then you may wish to click on the Amazon link below.  This is such a versatile top that I know I will get a lot of use out of it.

I did receive it for free, and so enjoyed modeling it for you.

I have every confidence that I will never get lost using the Tsumbay Pocket Transit Compass.  This is a Professional compass, and comes with it’s owned case.  The strong case has a press stud to close it, and on the back a loop, so that it can go on a belt, or fanny pack.  It is also small enough to go into a coat, or jacket pocket.

It has a very clear dial, and is big enough to read.  The top of the inside is mirrored, and I am going to take the technical information, from the Amazon webpage:

This explains it far better than I can.  I have been checking out local points that I know, and it is extremely accurate.  Next time I go away, it will be going with me, and I will look forward as to how it works in the dark, and in rain.

I did receive this item at a discounted price, and wanted to let you know what is available.  Especially if you love adventures, and being outdoors.

Zida Women’s Workout Wirefree Racerback with Removable Cup Yoga Sports Bra

Posted in Clothing, Fitness and SportsTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 4 Comments

I have a whole bunch of sports bras, and most of them feel uncomfortable, after a few hours.  I have to say that the Zida workout racerback bra is cooler, and more comfortable than others. 

I love the narrow straps, that don’t show under my racer-back tops, especially at the back.  It is made of 73% polyester, and 27% spandex, that allows for a good stretch. It easily goes over my head, and pulls over my boobs.  It is a more lightweight than my others, but holds me in well.

I tend to sweat a lot when boxing/kick boxing, and lifting weights, but as the Zida bra is: ‘ Four way stretch professional sportswear fabric with moisture-wicking, and quick-dry performance always ensure you perfect fit. Inner cotton with Lyrca fabric gives you ultra comfort feeling, second-skin fit’.

I so agree that this is a perfect bra that allows for movement, but doesn’t completely confine you.  It has mesh fabric at the back under the strap, that helps to keep you dry.  There are no wires, but does have cups.  The inside is a nice soft cotton. It comes in 2 different designs.

As you can tell, I really like this bra, and am delighted to have received it for free.

ARCHEER Bluetooth 4.1 Transmitter and Receiver, Wireless 3.5mm Audio Adapter, aptX Low Latency Digital Optical TOSLINK for TV, Home Stereo System

Posted in Father's day, gifts, Home products, Office Products, Phone accessories.Tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 1 Comment

I am not overly technical, but love to try out products that can make my entertainment more pleasurable.  That is why I got the ARCHEER Bluetooth 4.1 Transmitter and Receiver.  

My husband and I like to watch different programs on television, so I thought that this would work with my headphones.

It comes with a 19 page User Manual, and I really studied it, before doing anything.  I charged up the product for 2 hours, which is the charging time in the manual.  After that it can be charging while using it.

I was able to pair the device with my headphones.  Then I wasn’t too sure which of the cables that came with it, went into the television.  Lucky for me I have a friend that isn’t technically challenged,  and he set it up for me.

It is great because my husband can watch his television with the sound on, and I can listen to mine with great stereo through my earphones.

To give you technical information, I am taking it off of the listing on Amazon:

‘Bluetooth TRANSMITTER + RECIEVER: One portable adapter to use as either transmitter or receiver, one button operation to switch between RX and TX. As a Bluetooth transmitter, it enables you to transmit the audio from your TV or iPod wirelessly to Bluetooth headphones or speakers. As a Bluetooth receiver, it allows you to play the music from your phone or tablet to wired home stereo system.

  • Dual Connection: Optical + 3.5mm AUX & RCA. You get maximum flexibility with support for both 3.5mm (AUX and RCA) and optical (TOSLINK) digital, both input and output are supported.
  • The latest Bluetooth V4.1 and aptX Low Latency: Easy to set up and wide compatibility. With the low latency technology, you can enjoy a latency lower than 98% of other devices; end-to-end lag time is reduced up to 30-40 milliseconds, so you can watch TV / Movie / Video and listen to high-clarity sound in perfect synchronization.
  • Long Battery Life: Built with 350mAh Battery and can be fully charged with only two hours, up to 15 hours working time and continuously streams even while charging. Enjoy your favorite wireless content as long as you can. Please note: to protect the battery, please do not always use while charging.
  • MINI and Cable Free DESIGN: Compact and lightweight build to easily tuck away and take on your travel. Keep your old stereo or wired headphone alive with new Bluetooth wireless connection, pair with smart phone or tablet from up to 33 feet away, and enjoy great music cable-free.’

I am very happy with this compact transmitter/receiver, and delighted to receive it free of charge.  I plan on working with it so that I can use it with my phone, and my husband’s tablet.

I have been at the beach for a few days, so decided to test the Fitackle Water Resistant Waist Pack/Fanny Pack.  Usually it would be at the gym, but feel that walking several miles a day, sweating in the sun, carrying lots of items, was a great test for it.

As you can see from my photos, I was only wearing a bikini, so needed to put my Galaxy Samsung J7 phone in it, the keys for the apartment, a Kleenex, lip balm, and a couple of candies.  No problem they all fitted with plenty of room to spare.

It has the main compartment, with 3 sections in it.  Then one at each side.  The left one has a Velcros top to keep items safe, the other side has a slit pocket.  It has plenty of waistband, so will fit the majority of sizes.  The clasp was a little tight to begin with, but that is a good thing.

It is made of Lycra, lightweight, durable, and water resistant.  It also comes with a lifetime warranty, which certainly makes you feel good.

I personally feel that it looks smart, is a quality product, and can be worn almost anywhere.  I will be using it at the gym, and it has a hole to put a cable through, if you are using earphones.

I did receive this item at a discount, and have really tested it, before writing my review.

Hikeren 10 Pack of Colorful Capacitive Stylus Pens with Hang Rope for Samsung iPhone, iPad, iPod, and All Touch Screen Devices

Posted in Christmas, For the kids, free, gifts, holidays, Office Products, Phone accessories.Tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 1 Comment

My husband uses a stylus all the time with his smartphone, and I am a finger person.  These past few days I have changed my mind, since getting the Hikeren 10 pack of Stylus Pens.

First off they are really lightweight, as you don’t even feel them in your hand.  They are smaller than all the other ones we have.  This pack contains 10 pens, 5 each of blue, pink, red, black, and rose/purple.  They have clips on them, so you are less likely to loose them.  They also have a strap with a plug on it.  Hikeren have kind of thought of everything when they made them.

I hear my husband bang, bang on his phone with other brands, but this one is silent.  It really is like using your fingers.

You can use them with ‘iPhone 6/6Plus/iPhone5/5s/5c /iPad/ Samsung/ HTC/ Tablet/ Car GPS Touch Screen, All capacitive touch screen device’.

You have enough for all the family in one little pack, and there is also a free gift with it.  It is a U-style cellphone stand, and all this for only $5.99.  If you have Amazon Prime, it’s free shipping too.  This has to be one of the best deals I have seen recently.  Get your stocking stuffers early this year.

I did receive mine for free, but would willingly have paid for them.

Meaneor Women Floral Lace Scalloped Neck Blouse Slim Fit Casual Shirt Wine Red/S

Posted in Christmas, Clothing, holidaysTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 12 Comments

I love pretty clothes, and the Meaneor Women Floral Lace Scalloped Neck Blouse Slim Fit Casual Shirt in Wine Red, is no exception.

It is made of modal fabric, which is so soft to the touch.  It is really lightweight, and cool to wear.  It is slightly longer than most of my tops, as it comes just below my bottom.  I ordered the small, and it fits me perfectly.

It is an off the shoulder style, and is what I would call a boat shaped neck.  The lace neck, and short sleeves, have scalloped lace.  The lace is lower at the front, and shows a tiny bit of cleavage.

I chose the wine red color, but it does come in other shades too.  I love red, as it goes well with black, gray, or navy blue.

It is suggested that you hand wash it, in cool water.  I do tend to put everything in the dryer, on a cold wash, and delicate cycle.  I use the mesh laundry bags, and all my clothes come out without shrinking or stretching.

The blouse is suitable for any occasion, dancing, a party, wedding, work, casual, and semi-formal.  Change it up with trousers, capris, or a skirt, and you have several outfits.

I did receive this item at a discounted price, and am happy to write a review of it.

Ekouaer Women’s Jogger Pants Slim Fit Drawstring Sweatpants with Pocket

Posted in Clothing, Fitness and Sports, free, garden, Home and OutdoorsTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 2 Comments

I am going for the thinner type of gym workout clothes, as it’s getting mighty hot in Florida.  Our boxing room, in the gym, doesn’t have air conditioning, so you can imagine how hot it gets in the summer months.  The sweat is pouring down me.  So today I did my boxing/kick boxing in the Ekouaer Women’s Jogger Pants Slim Fit Drawstring Sweatpants with pockets.

First off, they are made ‘Modal fabric, which is soft, lightweight, and comfortable to wear’.  I pulled them on this morning, and they fit nice, and tight, so the small fits me perfectly.  They fit great at the ankle, and as I am fairly tall.  The waistband is elasticated, and has 2 eyelet holes, where the drawstring goes through.

There are 2 side pockets, that have plenty of room to put multiple items in.

I spent 30 minutes boxing, kick boxing, the speed bag, and skipping/jump robe.  The sweat was running down me, but the pants stayed cool.  I didn’t get any sweat between the cheeks of my bum, which often happens.  They kept the lower half of my body cooler than any other ones I have worn.

As you can see in the video, and photos, they look as if they were custom made for me.  I am thinking about buying the gray ones too.  They also come in blue.

I did receive these leggings for free, and am so pleased, as my thicker ones are going away until January.  Thinner is better in hurricane season.

EECOO Self Standing Folding Walking Cane Lightweight Walking Stick with LED Light and Cushion Handle Adjustable Folding Cane for Men and Women

Posted in Father's day, gifts, health, Mother's day, Safety productsTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 2 Comments

Over the years my husband has been in hospital several times, and needed assistance once he came home.  For these emergencies I have a wheelchair, a walker, a regular cane/stick, and now the EECOO Self Standing Folding Walking Cane Lightweight Walking Stick with LED Light, and Cushion Handle Adjustable Folding Cane.  This can be used for either sex.

Where do I start.  First off, it stands on it’s own, as it has the four pronged foot.  That means that you can use it from a sitting position, or a standing one.  It folds up, which is great when it is not needed, and easy to open when required.

It gives really good support, and my husband weighs around 166 pounds, and it holds his weight.  I read that it is good up to 200 pounds.  It has a bright flashlight, which really helps if you fall asleep, and it’s dark when you wake up, or if you are out at night.

It is sturdily made, and adjustable, for all heights.  This means that 2 elderly people could use it, and be comfortable for both of them.

From the Amazon website: ‘TWO-HANDLE DESIGNED: Resilient sponge handle effectively reduce the damage to hands caused by vibration and friction. The second pivoting handle creates an equal weight distribution system, reduces strain on back and legs, effectively help sit and stand up.’ 

My husband is doing good right now, but I know that this cane will come in handy. I have it close to his chair, just in case he needs it.

I did receive this product at a discounted price, and wanted to share the benefits of buying one for someone who is a little unsteady on their feet.
