    Valentine’s Day Lookbook: Glasses and Trends

    This post is sponsored by GlassesUSA.com, and just in time for a great way to style your glasses for Valentine’s day! You should definitely check out their site, especially if you’re looking for to order glasses. They have an awesome selection. I especially love these frames.  I have had glasses since I was about eleven years old. When I got them, I was initially excited; they were round, with thin metal frames that had a multitude of colors in them, and the pastor’s son, who I had a crush on at the time, thought they were cool. So naturally, I loved my glasses. But as I got older and we…

    Sponsor in Februrary!

    I can’t believe it’s almost February already. I’m very, very excited to have my first Valentine’s Day as a married woman; Mr. Owl will only tell me that I have to dress up for wherever it is he’s taking me, and aside from that he’s kept mum on his plans. I can’t wait to see what he’s got in store! If you would like to sponsor in February, please let me know! I hope to have all sorts of romantically-inclined posts for this wonderful month of love and chocolate, and if you would like to be a part of showing my readers some love this month, you can hop over…

    Friday Giveaway: Simply Bridal (CLOSED)

    To end this week’s wedding-focused posts, I’m very excited to host my first giveaway ever: a beautiful, beautiful veil from the very lovely Simply Bridal! A few weeks before my wedding, Simply Bridal contacted me with the offer to send me a veil of my choice to either use in my wedding and review, or use as a giveaway. I chose this veil because of the beading and how delicate and pretty it is, but then just by chance I happened upon the 1950’s blusher that I ended up using… so guess what? I’m giving away this gorgeous, beaded veil to one of you lucky brides-to-be (or, y’know, if you’re…

    Full Disclosure: discuss

    IFB recently published an article dealing with bloggers, sponsors, and full disclosure of sponsored items or posts, and I think it is  a very good article to read, both for information and for discussion. As a brief rundown of the post, in case you don’t want to read it or don’t have time, they basically talk about easy and gracious ways to highlight that something is sponsored, and they briefly touch on the FTC guidelines stating bloggers must disclose sponsored posts/items. Mostly, the article gives us bloggers some ideas on how to non-awkwardly state that a post or item is sponsored. Now, I’m pretty new to sponsorships, but I already…
