I also want to tell you about Bowtique by Jacqueline today! 

A few weeks ago Jacqueline sent me a decal to review, and let me tell you, I just love it! It gives Daisy {my car} a little more personality.

I will preface with the fact that I love decals on my cars. My truck has a Damzl sticker, a GlamisDunes.com sticker and - for my inner nerd - my high school newspaper staff sticker. Across the top it used to have my nickname Polly Pocket. I have to put that one back on, it came off. 

My beautiful car, Daisy, was sticker free. She does have a custom license plate but that's not the same! So I was so happy to add this girly touch, and can't wait to make a WQ one to put on the back. 

Jacqueline has excellent customer service. She sent the decal quickly with a card. Did I mention she's also a blogger? She blogs at Pretti Please and I love reading it! I met her through Her Campus Blogger Network. 

You could put your Decal anywhere. I contemplated my laptop, but I think I will have my car for a little while longer :) 

Go and take a look at her Etsy and buy something! She also offers glitter canvases [I'm in love with the heart one] and actual bows for your hair!  :)

My Carabox Reveal!!!

Yesterday I came home from a job interview to this. 

OMG. I was so excited. I opened the door and dropped my stuff on the floor and began to open the package from Amanda!

I love absolutely everything she got me in my Go Green Carabox. First, I saw the Gud bodywash - which I saw at Target last week and really wanted to buy. I wasn't out of bodywash yet so I thought I could wait. Now I don't have to! Then the Burt's Bees - always my favorite. The Ecotool dual loofah is so cool, I used it in the shower this morning.

 Then. Oh. My. Goodness. I died. A new planner!!! From May 2013-June 2014. I misplaced my planner in my messy room and I haven't been able to justify buying a new one. This one is super super cool because it gives me a month and week view, tabs, note space and even an "important dates" section - so I can put all of my wedding planning dates and magazine stuff on one page!!!

I also recieved a busy girl on the go eye makeup kit which I've stuck in my car. I always do my makeup in the car and attempt to use my rearview mirror so this will be much better. 

The most green thing I got though - a planter's almanac WITH sunflower, green bean and carrot seeds! I don't know how Amanda knew that sunflowers are my favorite flower and those are my two favorite veggies but I am so excited! I told my mom we have to plant them in her garden this weekend. They're organic, too. We have a compost bin and don't use any chemicals so I know that these veggies will grow strong and stay chemical free as well. 

The best part of my package, though, was my card from Amanda. She was so encouraging and I love the breakdown / reminder she left me. I am so excited to have made a blogfriend. Of course, she lives in Ohio! Which would be the second state I visit the most besides home in Cali. (Nevada doesn't count because it's just Vegas!) 

 

Thank you so much for the wonderful package, Amanda. I am so excited for our friendship to grow.
