I’m so glad that I went ahead and bought my first Erin Condren Planner. It’s amazing and keeps my head on straight when I super stressed out.

Why I Love My Erin Condren

Between the sleek design and all of the customization opportunities, no two planners are alike and that’s what I love about my Erin Condren. Plus being in pharmacy school and working two jobs, the spaces in the writing section are the perfect size to hold all of my assignments and work schedules. It’s also a bigger size than I am used to, but now I really love how big it is. It’s basically the size of a book, definitely bigger than the ones they used to give out in high school.

Customization Options on the website:

• Style: horizontal, time, and vertical designs
• Color scheme: colorful and neutral
• Cover options
• Length: 12 months or 18 months (for an added $5 charge)

How I Use My Planner

For me as a college student, my planner is literally my life encompassed into a book. I use it to keep up with my assignments, meetings, work schedule, my bills, and anything else that I can fit into my planner. While I love being organized and keeping my tasks in order, it can be hard to juggle everything and keep things straight. With my Erin Condren, I don’t have to worry about that anymore. Once a month, I take a few hours of my day to schedule and plan out my planner.

The best part of planning out the month is being able to use fun stickers and washi tape to decorate my planner. I literally find every single one that I use off of Etsy from anything from phone bills to taking out the trash to washing the clothes.

Besides decorating and writing down my entire life in my planner, I also set my planner in an outline fashion where I leave room to be able to cross each item off or checkmark it once it’s completed. That way I can see exactly what I need to do and what has already been done.

Here are some of the Etsy stores I recommend for stickers and covers:

• VintageLilacPaper
• Stylish Planner
• RainbowBunnyCo
• AmeliePlanner
• JeePapeterieShop

Why Everyone Needs a Planner  

Literally, I have no idea what I would do without my planner! Everyone could benefit from having a planner just for the organization skills that you learn when you keep up with it. With the Erin Condren planners, you can customize the planner to whatever you need it to be whether you are a teacher, a bride, or an exercise junkie. There’s a planner meant and structured just for you on the website!

Here are the main reasons you need to get a planner today:

Organization: You can keep everything you need in your planner, even loose papers with the folder in the back. There are also some stickers for holidays and appointments so you can plan ahead and not forget an appointment.

Availability: I love having everything I need in one place, from homework to my work schedule to my blog calendar. That way if I ever forget something I only have to look in one spot to reminded of what I needed to remember.

Better memory: It’s an actual fact that you’re more likely to remember something when you write the information down on paper.

The amazing part about JORD is that each piece is unique in its own way, and they have a wide range of watches. Their range expands to men, woman, color choices, wood choices, and size ranges. When I was looking through the website, there were so many beautiful choices to choose from! I eventually landed on the Frankie series, in the Dark Sandalwood and Emerald face. I then measured my wrist so the wonderful people at JORD could send me the perfect size, but if it’s not exact, they give you extra links to adjust the size as need be. And you know what the best part about JORD is, they ship worldwide and it’s free.

I received my watch in less than a week. The watch comes in this beautiful wooden chest that includes a piece of cloth and a stick of oil so that you can conditioned your wooden timepiece so that it stay beautiful forever.

I usually don’t wear watches, but this one has totally changed the game. It’s great for when I have to look professional in my white coat as well as adds a pop of color to a casual outfit. I wore it for this photoshoot as a more casual outfit with black high-waisted jeans and a button-up crop top. Let’s be honest though, the watch really made the entire outfit, and I’m not mad about it.

The JORD Frankie watch retails for $179, but they offer a ton of other options to choose from, bigger and smaller than the one that I was given. Visit JORD’s website see their entire line of women’s watches and men’s watches.

Now on to the giveaway, JORD is so gracious to give one of my lucky readers a $100 giftcard to purchase one of your very own wood watch! The best part is that even if you aren’t the lucky winner, you still get a $25 giftcard as a consolation prize just for entering. Anyone can enter, so just click through the link! All you have to do is enter in your name and email address to enter the giveaway. It ends September 24, 2017! All codes will expire December 31, 2017.

Disclosure: This post was sponsored by JORD and I was gifted this complimentary watch for the review. No other compensation was given and all thoughts of the product are my own.

Are you ready to hear the tea on Shein from an unbiased truth from a broke college student just trying to look fashionable on a budget?

First off when I clicked onto the website, the layout has clean categories and layout, but it was a tad bit busy with all of the sale signs. Once you click on a category, the website was very crispy and clear on the items. It’s stepped up very similarly to Forever21’s and GS-Love’s home pages. I love that on each item there is a size chart that you can use to guide you on sizing of each individual piece. Shein is an Asian-based website, but when I ordered, I found each item to be true to size and good quality. I ordered three items from Shein: a tribal print off-the-shoulder top, a flowy leaf dress, and a tassel crossbody bag.

Tribal Print off-the-shoulder Top ($11.00-click here to purchase!)

I love the summer time heat because I get to wear shorts and off-the shoulder tops, which is why I’m loving that they came back in style this season. I saw this top on the Shein website, and I absolutely fell in love with the design! Once my items arrived, I noticed that the top was a tad bit thin, but what can you expect when you order an item that is mainly white? Otherwise, the item fitted perfectly in length and wasn’t too tight across my arms.

Flowy Leaf Dress ($15.00-click here to purchase!)

This has to be my favorite purchase from my order. I’m literally obsessed with it and I was so shocked on how great quality that item is. My biggest worry with purchasing this dress was the fit and the sheerness of the item, since it’s white. Not to fret though because the dress fit perfectly and was even double lined so you can’t see anything through the material! The straps aren’t adjustable, but they are the perfect length on me.  Definitely a must purchase, if you love this item as much as I do! Its such a versatile piece that you can dress it up or down with a pair of heels or some sandals and a jean jacket. For reference, I am 5’1” and the dress comes to a little above my knees, so if you’re taller than me, then this dress might be a little short on you.

Tassel Crossbody Bag ($21.15-click here to purchase!)

I’m not the one who usually carries a purse and if I do, it’s typically a large purse. It’s almost like I feel like I have to make up for my small size with a larger handbag to balance the look. But I’m loving tassels for the summer time and this purse just screamed me, so of course I had to get it. It’s pretty good quality for the price and the strap is adjustable so that you can change the length as you please.

Shipping: My order came in about a week after ordering and the processing time.

Final Thoughts

For the super low prices and pretty quick shipping, you really can’t beat the deals that you can find on Shein. It’s a great website to try out new trends or different styles you wouldn’t normally buy in-stores! I was really impressed with my first order from Shein, especially since I had such low hopes for the quality of the items I bought. The best tip that I can give you when ordering from Shein is to use the size measurements as a guide to decide what you size you’ll need (it’s really accurate!) and to check out the reviews/photos for each item. You can learn a lot by reading the reviews and seeing how the piece looks on different body types, or at least that’s really helpful for me when I’m shopping online.

In this post, I want to give you my honest review on LBVK Unlimited so you can also get some trendy pieces to dress up your summer outfits!

Shipping

The processing time took about 3 days, then once the company mailed my package, it came in about 2 days. LBVk Unlimited sent my package through Priority Mail so the shipping was really quick!

Cost

The silver necklace is called Alyssa (retail price $15.99) and the denim choker is called Kylie (retail price $15.99).

Package

Once I opened my package, I was astonished to see the care that was put into my package and the design of it. Each necklace was in gold tissue paper with a gold logo sticker inside a white box to keep each necklace safe and sound, during shipment. My package also came with a personal thank you note thanking me for ordering from them that was handwritten.  

Quality

I ordered two different types of necklaces from LBVK Unlimited. One was the distressed denim choker that I mentioned before and the second one was a silver choker that is also gorgeous. The silver neck is such high quality, way better than I had expected. While the denim choker is also good quality and the denim feels well-worn, but I do wish the clash and the chain of the necklace was better quality. That part of the necklace feels pretty cheap, I have to be honest.

Sizing

There is a sizing chart on the website under each necklace’s description so all you got to do is measure your neck size and compare it to the chart to get the perfect fit. For the silver necklace, I was able to use the sizing chart. But for the denim choker, you have the option to leave a note to the company on what size that you need the necklace to be, since each one is different. I accidently ordered the denim choker slightly too big, but that was totally my fault and not the seller’s. It still fits so no worries, I can make it work for my needs!

Here are some picture of the necklaces! I really hoped that you enjoyed this review and that you might also check out LBVK Unlimited, if you’re interested in any purchasing any of these necklaces.
