Zeelool has the best online prescription eyeglasses

I have been shopping online on Zeeloo for about seven months now.  They have a wide selection of prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses that are very stylish.  Their eyeglasses are well-made, but their prices are so affordable.  You just need your prescription from your eye doctor, and you are set.  You no longer have to pay the outrageous fees that the eye doctor charges for their glasses.

With Zeeloo, you can try on the glasses online to see what kind of glasses accentuate your face shape.  I have a heart-shaped face, so wide glasses with a cat eye or square eyeglasses are perfect for me.  I always take advantage of the sales that they have so I can get the best deals for my money.

They have glasses in beautiful colors.  I have been in a buying frenzy with Zeeloo lately.  I have a nice collection going on.  I have some nice glasses to match my cute outfits.  The pair that I am wearing right now is called Dalton.

The eyeglasses in the above video are called Alfred.  These eyeglasses are gray but to me, they appear to have a slight purple color to them.  They are so cute.  These glasses go with just about anything. I am on a budget, so it feels good to get the kind of eyeglasses that I want without them costing so much.

Right now, Zeeloo is having a Black Friday sale going on.  You can get eyeglasses for an even lower price right now, so it is a good time to get multiple pairs of glasses that are very inexpensive but they look and feel like expensive eyeglasses. 

What is the difference between Swap and ThredUp?

What is the difference between Swap and ThredUp?

There may be affiliate links in this post.  This means that I will receive a small commission if a purchase is made.  This is at no added cost to you.

I have been thrifting for a very long time but sometimes I like to go to Swap and ThredUp.  I have been using their site for about 12 years.  They have very nice clothes but both of them are kind of different. 

I find that ThredUp is a little more expensive than Swap.  They have a wide variety of tops, dresses, sweaters, jeans, shoes, and etc.   I save my favorite pieces and when they have  a sale, I get the items that I want if they are still available. 

 ThredUp measures the clothing items and then you can determine whether it is big or small enough for you.  You will also know how long a dress, skirt, or pants are.  This is helpful because I don't really like sending clothing back to ThredUp.

When the clothes come they are packed nicely in a cute box.  I feel as if I am shopping at a boutique. Since I compare my measurements to theirs I haven't had to send anything back in a while.

What I don't like about ThredUp- I think that some of the T-shirts and plainer clothing items could be a lot cheaper.  I have also been seeing a lot more fast-fashion items that are cheap to begin with and some of the items cost a lot more on ThredUp than they do on the online sites who sell these throw away fashions.

ThredUp does give you a chance to bundle your items and they give you days to add to your bundle without additional shipping cost.  I always think that I am finished shopping but when I find an extra item or two that is on sale, I add that to my bundle.

ThredUp also sell some designer items.  Some are cute but in my opinion some looks a bit worn-out for the price they are selling the item for.  I do have some Michael Kors clothing that I will be sporting for the Fall and Winter.  The amount of time that it takes for them to ship your clothing items is reasonable.  I am always excited when I receive my new box.

I have been shopping with Swap for a very long time.  I think I started shopping with them first before I started with ThredUp.  Back in those days they had a lot of sales.  Sometimes I would get five clothing items for $25.00 and I either had to pay for shipping but a lot of times I scored free shipping with them. 

 Their clothes are nice but sometimes they will say that an item looks like new and it will come with pilling or the item looks old.  I used to send some of their clothes back because Swap doesn't list the measurements of each item. 

 I mostly had a lot of problems with dresses, skirts, and pants or jeans.    I have bought a lot of really cute clothes with Swap.  I am plus-size and they are really good with having a large variety of plus-size clothing.  I still have a lot of cute dresses and clothes that I bought many years from their online store.

They sell some designer items and I have received some cute clothes but like ThredUp, sometimes they sell designer items that are worn out.  

Now, let me address the elephant in the room.  Swap have a big problem with shipping your items with one or two items missing.  This comes without an explanation.  It has happened to me so many times.

  I usually email them and they will say that the items are lost.  How are they lost when you have placed an order and they don't let you know right away that they lost  your item.  They will refund the items that are (lost) but this isn't a good practice at all.

I used to work as a picker and when an order comes in, the workers go and pick  all of the items to include in that order.  I could be wrong, but I think they are giving these items to someone else who wants them. 

Also, I have waited two months to receive my clothes in the mail.  Swap. needs to look at all of the complaints that they have received over the years and make some drastic changes.  Their shipping fees have gone up drastically!

They also receive clothes that people consign on Swap. and they literally give these people a few dollars or cents for their expensive, good-quality clothing. This is a very unfair practice.  This has been going on for years!

If they make some of the changes mentioned, they will definitely gain more satisfied customers.

Are Sponsorship's and Collaborations Worth It?

Are Sponsorship and Collaborations Worth It?

I started being a content creator in 2012.  I had no idea what I was going to do.  It was just a fun hobby. I was and am a YouTuber and a Blogger. I started to promote different products on my YouTube channel and also on my blog. 

 It was a joy creating content that others would enjoy.  I love to shop, and I had a lot of products to review on my own. You see, I always wanted to be one of those people on the home shopping television programs, who presented different products.  I was so obsessed with it that I would race home from school and my eyes were glued for hours.

Social media gave me a chance to do this but do it on my own terms. I thought people weren't really watching but the right people were watching.  Companies started to reach out to me to review their products. 

 Usually, I would get a free product to review and affiliate links to add to the description of these products.  It was really fun because I love getting products to try out.  This happened very early in my YouTube career.  

Then I started thinking about how some companies were really getting over on me.  Sometimes they would send products that were literally falling apart and I had to conceal the areas that were obviously damaged.  I was able to do this and it brought a lot of attention to my YouTube channel and my blog. 

Then one day, I received an email for my first sponsorship. At this point, I had done many collaborations.  I was so nervous, but I researched how to go about this sponsorship, and it lasted over a year.  In fact, I am working with this company again.

This company had me add affiliate links but it turned out to be a project that I only had to do once or twice but I was getting paid for this project for a while.

This was so exciting for me to do.  At the time I didn't even have the best camera, lighting, or anything.  It was indeed a blessing.  Many collaborations and sponsorships are still coming but you really have to be careful because the sponsor may not accurately calculate your earnings. 

 There are a lot of scammers in this arena, and you must be careful.  When you get an offer, please research online, and watch videos of said product.  If a lot of people have worked with the company and have gotten paid it is a win-win!

A lot of collaborations want you to work too hard for just a twenty-dollar item.  You will have to realize what your worth is.  If you are just starting out reviewing products take advantage of these collaborations to showcase your product reviewing skills.  It is kind of like a resume of your prior work.

But if you have been doing this for a while do your research to see if this is going to be lucrative for you. Know your worth and don't let anyone take advantage of you.  I think collaboration can be lucrative if they are giving you payment and the product to review.

In my opinion, I think that sponsorships are actually better because you can work for a company for a long time.  The money is there for you.  If you are considering doing this kind of work please look online at sites like Udemy and take some courses that will show you how to get started.

  Check your email on a regular basis for these types of opportunities.  Don't click on any links until after you have done your research to see if the company is legit.

Can you earn a million dollars doing this?  You can make money but it will take a while to make a significant amount of money. I encourage you to get started and to have faith in yourself and there is no telling where this may lead you.

Well-made women's straight-leg jeans for all figures

I have worn jeans most of my life but I have found that they are sometimes very uncomfortable.  They will cut you in the wrong places.  When they started making jeans with spandex that was the best thing in the world because that makes them extra comfortable.  There are so many brands available now that are very durable and affordable.  I have even been able to find some of my favorites at Walmart.

Jeans are one of the most popular and versatile pieces of clothing for women. Many stores have an extensive selection of jeans in varying styles, cuts, and sizes. For great-fitting jeans, try department stores such as Amazon, and online stores like Levi's, or American Eagle. There are also several specialty stores that specialize in jeans for women, such as Gap, Old Navy, and Banana Republic.

Today jeans have the fit that will enhance your figure.  They are so easy to care for.  I like to wash most of my jeans in warm or cold water.  Once in a while I will wash them in hot water with a little Tide laundry detergent and use my absolutely favorite fabric softener which is Suavitel.

Suavitel will make your jeans very soft and make them smell delightful.  I even will buy some of my jeans from ThredUp to get my favorite jeans at great savings.

Jeans have the tendency to make you feel young, free, and stylish.  I love the jeans from Talbots because they are always of the best quality.  I have some that I have had for about 8 or more years.  They haven't faded or anything.  I love to wear them with a crisp shirt and a cardigan in a bright color.  It makes me feel beautiful!  I love straight-leg jeans or a slight bootcut.

Target is also a great place to get jeans.  I would suggest that you try them on in a full-length mirror to see how they look from all angles. When you find your perfect pair, buy multiple pairs of them.  Wash them inside out and they will always look fabulous.

There is no secret that I am a plus-size women over 50.  I like to look nice but I like to dress for my age.  I had seen these Larace tops for many years now and I always wanted to try them.  I thought that they would probably look real cheap.  

These shirts have really good reviews on it on Amazon.

I love wearing prints.  Some people say that they make you look bigger but I think that they bring out your personality and your style.  This shirt is sleeveless and I just added a white T-shirt under it, to cover my arms a bit more. 

I am wearing it with jeans but you can wear them with leggings, and a straight pant. It is really comfortable and it fits me perfectly.

I bought this shirt and fell in love with it.  These shirts can be worn all year round if you add a cardigan or a jacket in the late Fall and the Winter.

They sell this shirt with a sleeve and they also have the Larace Dresses that I will get a couple of.  These shirts are easy to wash and then hang up or you could dry it in the dryer.  I didn't even have to iron it and that is always good.

The best prescription eyeglasses for women

I used to not wear glasses; until I was diagnosed with diabetes about 21 years ago.

It is hard sometimes to find eyeglasses that will look good on you.  I went to my optometrist and found that either their eyeglasses were not attractive or the nice ones were too high.

I live on a budget and remember some years ago, my nephew (rest in peace baby) had on some excellent eyeglasses and said that he purchased them online.  I thought to myself (how will I get eyeglasses online)  I thought it would be very difficult until one day I was told that the glasses that I wanted would be six hundred dollars.  Of course, I didn't get them.

Having a particular style was important to me.  My sister wears very stylish eyeglasses, but I wanted the look without the high price.

A few weeks ago, I stumbled across a few online eyeglasses stores, and I was surprised at the cute glasses that I saw.  Most of the sites had a way that you could try on different frames, and that was so helpful.  Some of them looked ridiculous and I learned that with the shape of my face, I need large to extra-large eyeglasses.  My favorite shape is the square or the rectangular shape.

I saw these cute green cat eye eyeglasses.  I tried them on, and I thought they were cute, but I wasn't sure.  The price was so good that I ordered them anyway.  When I opened the package, they looked so pretty, and they had a good weight to them.  Here are the eyeglasses that I have on.

The prescription was perfect, and I can see very well.  These sites are saving me and others so much money and I will continue to get my eyeglasses this way. I am very pleased with the look and quality.

The best faux mink lashes.

I had dabbled with faux eyelashes but never seriously wore them.  This year I decided to learn how to apply them.  My skills still aren't perfect but they are getting a little better.  

I purchased some faux mink lashes and I find them very easy to apply.  They feel very comfortable they come in a variety of sizes.

I went to my local name brand pharmacy and I saw so many that were kinda expensive.  Since I am not an (eyelashtologist) yes, I made up my own word; I didn't want to pay too much. Mainly, I wanted to find eyelashes to just practice on so I started to get inexpensive eyelashes.

They didn't last that long but I started to see that the ones that are a little more expensive are better.  

Lately, I also have been experimenting with different eyelash glue to find the brand that works the best.  Have been getting a lot of compliments on my faux mink lashes and I think I will stick with these unless I find some that works better. 

 As I get older, lashes really does a great job at making my face look better. They look so glamorous. When I wear lashes, I do not have to wear as much makeup because I can apply the lashes and go.

 

AlignerCo is having a big sale for Independence Day

AlignerCo is having a big sale for Independence Day

This post may have affiliate links which means that I will receive a small commission if a purchase is made. 

Hello everyone, I started with AlignerCo about nine months ago.  The process has been quite easy, and the time has gone by so fast.  AlignerCo is having a sale for Independence Day, and right now their aligners are very affordable.  The sale is only for a limited time.  

I have done numerous videos showing you how my AlignerCo journey is going, and my YouTube audience has asked me a lot of questions concerning the price and whether would I suggest that they try these aligners.  

 

I have shared the good and bad about these aligners and the things that I have gone through.  These aligners are the least expensive aligners on the market right now.  It is good to catch a sale on these aligners and start your journey.  

AlignerCo aligners are easy to use, there isn't much pain when using them, and they are very easy to clean and take care of.  I have to switch to another set of aligners every ten days. Some people finish their treatment in four to six months. You can straighten your smile in less than a year.

Afro Hair Wigs For Black Women

Afro Hair Wigs For Black Women

This post may contain affiliate links. I will receive a small commission if a purchase is made.

After experiencing hair loss in my mid-twenties I started wearing hair pieces and wigs.  There are so many different styles that you can choose now because years ago the styles were limited.

I usually buy straight bob wigs and shoulder-length wigs that have a little curl to them.  Recently, I have been exploring a little more and I decided to buy an Afro wig.  These wigs feel light on the head and the texture is very natural looking. 

You can see from the picture that this wig has a little curl almost like a Jheri Curl. You can comb it out more to give it more volume or you can pat it and it will give a smaller appearance.  It is nice to be able to change to a different style anytime I want.  

Wigs give you plenty of freedom to wear your hair in a different way at any given time.  I have alopecia and I have tried a lot of products that are supposed to help your hair grow.  A lot of those products don't work but if I do find a solution, I will come back and let you know what I am using, but right now I am enjoying my wigs.

Plus-size clothing for wedding guests.

Plus-size clothing for wedding guests.

Image by Photo Mix from Pixabay 

This post is not sponsored.  

It is very difficult to find a plus-size special occasion dress to wear to a wedding.  Sometimes you will have to have a dress made, but if you have to find something to wear in less than thirty days you will definitely have a problem.

I have gone to JCPenney in the past to look for a special occasion dress and they had a nice selection but if you are a younger woman in her 20s or 30s their selection is very small.

I have looked on a website called boohoo and I saw some cute dresses that would be perfect for a wedding and they are perfect for younger woman.

Image by Stacey Kennedy from Pixabay 

Sometimes it is good to get a small collection of dresses suitable to wear to a wedding before you even need it.  Go to some stores just to see what is available, and if you see a pretty dress for a good price; get it even before you need it.  If you need to go to a tailor to get it taken in a bit, it will be ready for you before any event.

Image by Hans from Pixabay 

I have seen some cute dresses and pantsuits at Burlington but they don't have a large selection.  

I took a look at Avenue website and they had some adorable special occasion dresses and they come in many sizes for the plus-size woman.  They even had some cute jumpsuits that you can wear to a wedding.  Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and try some new styles.

Don't sleep on Amazon.  Check out their wedding guests dresses.  I saw some that were adorable. Do a full search online before you go to any stores to get an idea of the type of dress that you want.

My most favorite place to get a special occasion dress is my local thrift store.  They have a big selection for plus-size women suitable for all age groups.  These dresses are beautiful, affordable, and you can take it to the tailor to get something added or taken away from the dress but most of the time I just get it and hand wash it or take it to the dry cleaners and store it away just in case a wedding comes up; I am always prepared.
