If you Like it Then You Shoulda Put a Ring in About Two Inches of Wax...On It

Today I've got a little product review and giveaway for you, courtesy of Diamond Candles! I first heard about this premise some time ago, actually, and I thought it was a little weird, to be honest. But now that I have experienced it, it is honestly just fun! I chose the gingerbread latte candle, to help usher in the cooler weather. I don't think it lowered the hot Texas temperature any, but it sure made my house smell wonderful! The candle burned strong and while you do have to let it go for a while before you reach the ring (unless you want to dig it out, I suppose), what a nice way to wait, don't you think? And really, whatever the price of the ring you receive, it's fun to see what you get anyway. I haven't seen any that haven't been nice. My only suggestion would be that they let you select your preferred ring size so you would at least know it would fit, but overall the experience is fun. I think it would make a great gift, too. There are a lot of scents to choose from, so hop to it! Psst...scroll down for a giveaway to win a Diamond Candle of your own!

Let's Talk Glasses

I've been a glasses wearer since I started to notice I couldn't see the board so well in 10th grade math class. My prescription is pretty low; I just need glasses for seeing at a distance and driving. I used to not wear my glasses very often, only putting them on when driving or when needed in class, but I find I wear them much more often these days. I guess I realized I like to see clearly at all times, and glasses now can be quite stylish!

I was recently contacted by Firmoo and offered a free pair of glasses in return for a blog post, so of course I obliged! I have ordered glasses online before, so I had my prescription ready and knew what style and shape of glasses might suit me best. I selected my glasses pretty quickly; I got a pair that is just about as close in shape to my previous pair as could be, but I went for a fun tortoiseshell color!The glasses arrived promptly, complete with a case, pouch, tightening kit (I know!), cleaning cloth, and, I will pause here to remind you- all for free! The glasses seem sturdy enough; I've been wearing them for over a week and they clean much better than my last pair, which, as any glasses wearer knows, is a simple pleasure in life. They are light and don't put pressure on my nose or head, odd as that may be to notice. I love the look and style of this pair. I actually had a girl in class say she thought my glasses were cute when we were doing start-of-semester introductions, so I gave the class a quick advertisement for firmoo.com, haha. What college student wouldn't be interested in a free pair of glasses, though?!

If you are less sure of what glasses might look good on you, or just want to play around and try something new, Firmoo has a convenient try-on service on their website, where you can upload a photo of yourself and virtually "try on" glasses before making your selection. Oh- and they also have prescription and non-prescription sunglasses! The best part is- they have a first pair free program, where, you guessed it, you get your first pair of glasses for free! Glasses are not inexpensive, so getting good service and a quality pair of glasses for free is pretty amazing. The only thing I don't like is the name of the company, it just doesn't roll off the tongue, but I can deal.
