Nature’s Sleep Memory Foam Slippers {Giveaway} – CLOSED

September 23, 2013 by

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been a slipper fanatic.  When I was in junior high, I wore these huuuuge puffy cow slippers around the house, and sometimes even on top of thinner slippers.  Since then, I’ve gone through SO many pairs of slippers!  Thin, thick, crocheted, fuzzy, pvc-bottomed, ballet-style, clog-style, moccasin-style, you name it.  With all my years of becoming a slipper-fiend, I’ve really developed a preference towards certain styles and materials, and based on my criteria, I knew I would love these Open Toe Terry Slippers w/Memory Foam from Nature’s Sleep.

NS_Logo_PurpleSo the thing about memory foam is that it is quite firm, right?  It slowly molds to the shape of your body (or feet) while offering a lot of support.  While these slippers aren’t as ‘cushy’ and springy as some other slippers I’ve tried, these are definitely the most supportive.  I could walk around our wood-floor house in these all day and not feel any strain on my back or get tired feet.  These are designed to help distribute your weight so that one part of your foot doesn’t experience pressure points.  These are CertiPUR-US® approved, by the way.

I love the terry covering.  I feel like it could clean well, in the event that food gets dropped on them, or they get dirty from wear.  Another thing I love is the thermoplastic rubber on bottom.  I’ve learned that this is the only way to go with household slippers!  With toddlers and babies in the house, there are bound to be spills and crumbs, and a wet slipper is disgusting!  The rubber sole keep your feet dry if you step in a puddle, and it also allows these to be shoes that you can wear out to get the mail or take out the trash.

 The light blue color is peaceful and happy, though it is a lot lighter than the website picture.  You can see the other available colors as well on their website.  These slippers are sold in four sizes (small, medium, large, and extra large) and are not differentiated between male and female styles.  These are sold for $25.

Dearfoams Slippers {Review}

We just got back (a few hours ago!) from a super fantastic vacation at my hubby’s family cabin in Idaho!  On the way up to the cabin, we stopped at my grandma’s house, and I commented on her sparkly clean kitchen floor, and how she must never have to sweep because she doesn’t have kids in the house and she has a cute dog to clean up the crumbs!  Its true, she said, she probably sweeps only once a month.  What?!  I HAVE to sweep up our crumby floors 3x/day!  I don’t know how my boys manage to get half their meal on the floor, but walking around barefoot is risky business around here.  So as not to step on the crumbs between sweepings (and OH how I HATE food on my feet!  Uuugghh!!), I wear a pair of Dearfoams ballet-style slippers all winter long, from sunrise to sunset, but as soon as it got warm around here, I realized these aren’t my favorite year-round slippers.  My feet were getting too warm in socks and slippers, and wearing them barefoot was still making my feet sweat.  I needed a good summer alternative–something with a TPR rubber outsole and open toe.  Of course, I turned again to Dearfoams because I knew I already loved their comfy slippers and that they fit my feet well.

I found my perfect match with these Photo Print Bow Scuff slippers.  They are so tropical and the epitome of summer!  Look at this huge cushion of comfort.  The heel wedge is nice and super thick, so I feel like I’m walking on pillows all day.

I love that I can wear these indoors and not worry about scratching our wood floor or slipping in the bathroom, and especially how I can run outside to get the mail, take out the trash, or hang out on the porch.  They are the perfect indoor/outdoor slippers that don’t look like your grandma wore them.

IMG_5180

Because the amount of fabric across the foot looked fairly thin to me, I worried about these slipping off my feet, or having trouble staying in place, but the fabric was actually surprisingly very tight and my feet are quite secure.  The shoes stay on without flopping around or sliding off.

IMG_5183

These are on sale at dearfoams.com for $20.40, and they have so many cute cute summer spa slippers!!  I want a pair of each!  I am completely a Dearfoams junky now, and I doubt I’ll try another brand as long as I live.  They are so affordable, and are sold in many of the stores I shop.

Hey Dude Shoes {GIVEAWAY}–CLOSED

I don’t know about you, but the old saying “When you have children, the days are long but the weeks/months/years are short” is SO true for me. Some mornings I wake up to screaming and fighting and I think, “Is it bed time yet?” but then all of a sudden I have times like right now where I think, “Is it really almost June? When did that happen?!” (which is when my husband would say “About 29 days ago!”). So here we are, one week closer to Father’s Day. Have you figured out what you want to get your favorite man this year? Well, here’s another great company for you to consider for your hubby/dad/brother: Hey Dude Shoes.

heydude-newlogo-small

Hey Dude Shoes has perfected the art of comfortable, cool shoes for men. They designed their shoes to be the lightest on the market and to be the most comfortable shoe possible. According to their website, their shoes only weigh 150 grams, which for us American folk is about 1/3 of a pound! That’s almost as light as a 1/4 Pounder with Cheese from McDonald’s! But they’re not flimsy; their “Flex & Fold Technology” ensures that the insole and outsole of each shoe gives proper support and flexibility to prevent injury and improve posture.  But enough talk about how great they are, check out the designs:

vinci-blueThese Vinci Shoes in Blue are super stylin’. They give a whole new meaning to the Elvis song “Blue Suede Shoes.” Definitely don’t step on these bad boys!
riva-fluo-chocolate2I LOVE boat shoes. I actually have a pair myself, so it’s no surprise I’m attracted to these Fluo Chocolate Rivas. I’ll admit, they are a bit flashy, but look how well this guy pulls them off with a pair of jeans. And they’re just so cool.
giveawayThe pair that I was sent was the Wally in Chocolate. True to their claim, my husband says they are totally comfortable and light. They only come in whole sizes and he normally wears a 10 1/2, but he was just fine with the size 10. Each pair of shoes comes with a pair of elastic laces so the shoes can be slip-ons and an extra set of hard laces for those who are anti-slip-on. He normally wears shoes with socks, so going barefooted was weird for him, but still comfortable.
shoesHe looks almost as good as the models in his shoes, don’t you think? 🙂 The shoes look good with shorts, jeans or khakis, so they’re totally versatile.
full body

I love their collection of men’s shoes, and at $40-$100, they’re not a bad deal, either. For now they don’t have a Women’s collection, but it says one is coming soon, so I’m keeping my eyes peeled and will definitely be checking it out once it’s available. But for today, one lucky winner will receive the same shoe I received, the Wally in Chocolate, as part of our giveaway.

Enter to win a pair of Hey Dude Shoes!

Ladies, this may very well be the best Valentine’s Day giveaway ever!  I am thrilled to showcase the exquisite, glamorous, and luxurious pajamas of Bedhead Pajamas!  Now I spend a fair share of my nights in grubby sweatpants and oversized t-shirts, but every time I visit my in-laws, or when we go on a fun weekend date, I always pack my nicest matching pajama set.  I believe every woman needs at least one pair of something amazing to sleep in.

Whenever my brothers or guy friends ask me something like, “What on earth should I give my girlfriend for Valentine’s Day?”, my response is always pajamas!  There is something sweet and slightly sexy about sleeping in a gift from someone you love.  Especially if it was a luxurious pair of pajamas from Bedhead Pajamas!  Start hinting to your husbands and boyfriends that this is exactly what you want for Valentine’s Day this year.

Beadhead PJs has a beautiful collection of Valentine’s pajamas, including my lovely Red Palm Springs Paisley Classic Stretch PJ, and I am head over heals about them!   They are as cozy as ever, and the small amount of stretch in them is just right.  They are warm, soft as new cotton, and sewn impecably well.  My favorite feature is the fine light blue piping around the collar and hems.  These are 95% Cotton/ 5% Lycra, and made in glamorous Los Angeles.

I’m in love!  With my pajamas!

Do any of these lovely pajama sets look a little familiar?  Perhaps its because these pajamas have been seen in numerous movies and tv shows.   They are also worn by celebrities worldwide!
