What I like about Smart & Sexy, besides their affordable products (most of the bras are just $15, sleepwear and lingerie is between $15-$20, and panties start at $6), is that these affordable products are gorgeous, sexy, fashionable & flirtatious, and perfect for everyday wear or those special nights. With many colors, styles, and sizes available, there’s something for every woman.

Enter SexyCostumeDiscounters.com. The site specializes in sexy, wearable Halloween costumes for men and women. The selection of costumes available is quite impressive, with literally hundreds of costumes to choose from! You can search by category, browse what’s hot & featured on the main page, or use the handy search bar to find the exact costume you’re looking for. SexyCostumeDiscounters.com doesn’t discriminate against plus sizes either, as evidenced by their generous plus size section. There are plenty of sexy womens costumes to go around!

I was offered a costume review, and I wound up checking out the sexy bunny costumes. Bunnies aren’t normally my thing, but Playboy bunnies are cute, and I know my husband would get a kick out of me owning a lingerie-style bunny costume with a poofy tail! I opted for the Adult Black Cocktail Hunny Costume, which arrived quickly and discreetly.

What I really love about this costume, which most likely represents all of the other costumes that SexyCostumeDiscounters.com carries, is that it’s just as pictured, and true to size. It also worked nicely as a costume in our bedroom.

If you’re on the lookout for the perfect Halloween costume with a little sass, then I definitely recommend SexyCostumeDiscounters.com!

Say hello to N-fini Shapewear, a line of shapewear products designed to tackle all sorts of problematic areas. They have tops, bottoms, and camis, and I ultimately chose the LYRCA Strapless Shaper, because it provides not only minimizing around the midsection, but extra lift to the bosom via the included underwires. What I like about the Strapless Shaper is that it has the long cami/tube top style that works best for me, and a patented wide band with special “grippers” that stop the dreaded roll-up (something I’m currently experiencing with another brand of shapewear that I’m wearing at this very moment, but have been too lazy to fix since I’ll be hopping in the shower soon). It’s made out of LYRCA, which ensures that it’ll not only stretch and shift to accommodate your body shape, but snap right back after use, so it’s always “fresh” and ready to minimize and control to its fullest potential.

Me wearing the shapewear — trust me, what it does for me is amazing!

All of N-fini’s shapewear is made out out of LYRCA and features the patented Serpentine Gel, which is what creates the special no-roll band at the bottom of their line of shapewear. And a specially diamond-shaped weave throughout the LYCRA fiber ensures additional shaping power without any loss of comfort. I can attest to these and other features of the N-fini Strapless Shaper. It’s quite snug fitting, and provides excellent shaping and support. True to its word, it doesn’t shift or do the dreaded roll-up, and even the inclusion of the underwires don’t cause any discomfort.

If you’re looking for high quality shapewear to wear underneath your regular clothing, I would definitely recommend anything by N-fini!

The Slimplicity Open-Bust Camisole is a very snug fitting cami (seriously, buy a size larger than your shirt size if you don’t want to feel like you’ve been vacuum sealed and shoe-horned into a sausage casing) that is meant to firm up and minimize a flabby, untoned midsection.

I’ve only had the chance to wear the Slimplicity Open-Bust Camisole twice now, but so far I’m loving it. However, let me get through the entire weekend with it before I write a detailed review!

Ryan will wear clothes, but if we’re not going out, or if he has just come inside, he’ll take off everything but his shirt and underwear. Usually the socks are the first to go, followed by the shorts. But then the socks may go back on. Only, he won’t put on the pair that he just took off, even if that pair had only been worn for a few minutes. Instead, he’ll go and get a new pair. This happens several times throughout the day. I’m pretty sure Ryan has a love/hate relationship with socks. He wants to wear them, particularly during the cooler months of the year, but he has sensory issues, and the pressure and friction that standard socks cause agitate him to the point where the socks just have to come off, and that’s that.

Enter SmartKnitKIDS Socks. These socks are blissfully free of the standard seams, bums and elasticized areas that normal pairs of socks have. They are completely seamless (in case you’re wondering, there is a slightly elasticized seam along the top of the sock, which holds it up, but this seam is on the outside, so the wearer does not feel it against their skin!), and even lack the standard defined heel, so that children who have sensory issues or other specific needs can wear them comfortably, however they choose to.

Knit-Rite, the company behind SmartKnitKIDS Seamless Socks, very generously sent me several pairs of socks to try with Ryan — and a pair for my daughter, Alyssa, too! She isn’t autistic and doesn’t have any sensory issues, but still, it’s nice for her to be included in things.

Ryan seemed to quickly adapt to the SmartKnitKIDS Seamless Socks. He took them off like he does his regular socks, but he also put them back on. He also complained to me when he somehow got a few drops of water on one of the SmartKnitKIDS socks (normally he’ll just wrench off any offending garment with nary a complaint, so the fact that he took notice to these particular socks being “sullied” with water says something), and asked me to clean them.

Ryan has worn his SmartKnitKIDS Seamless Socks on several occasions now, and it seems as though he likes them. They do come off when he gets home from preschool or in from playing outside, but they don’t come off as quickly, and he does seem more willing to keep them on. I also noticed that he doesn’t fidget with his sneakers when he is wearing these socks — that is something he has done in the past with regular socks.

As for my daughter, she is quite happy with her spiffy purple socks. I don’t think she even noticed the lack of seams!

If you have an autistic child or a child with any type of special needs or sensory issues, and can’t seem to get them to keep socks on their feet, give SmartKnitKIDS Seamless Socks a try! They’re truly seamless and lack the usual bindings and restraints of regular socks, they absorb moisture and wick away odors, and they’re available in several sizes and colors.

SmartKnitKIDS Seamless Socks are available for purchase here.

I was sent three pairs of SmartKnitKIDS Seamless Socks to try out with my children: two pairs of white, and one pair of purple (for Alyssa, who loves purple). The socks feel thin yet very well made, and they’re oh-so-soft — so soft that I wish I had a pair for myself! True to the website’s word, there are no seams of any type, and the tiny bit of seam and cuff that is on the top of the sock is on the outside, so again, there is no pressure or irritation to worry about.

Since we have been going to the pool a lot, we haven’t had the chance to fully try out SmartKnitKIDS Seamless Socks, but you better believe they’re going to get a workout this coming week, as my son’s specialized preschool starts back up, and both kids will be attending a vacation bible school in the evenings.

Alyssa and Ryan each received a t-shirt from Wearable Art. Alyssa received the Princess design, and Ryan received the Space design. Each t-shirt was true-to-size, and each came packaged with a boxed set of six special pastel crayons. The instructions, which were clear and concise, specified that the kids should color their designs first. Then, when the designs are finished, a clean sheet of white paper should be placed over the design, and the design should then be ironed with a hot iron to set the colors and make the design permanent. Simple, right? It really was that simple! And moms? This was a total mess-free project, and one that the kids could direct themselves with! While they were busy coloring, I was busy researching acnepril reviews and planning dinner. It was a total win/win situation!

Once ironed, the design is indeed permanent. Both of the kids’ t-shirts have been washed (with bleach) twice, and there has been no side of color leaking or fading. Wearable Art is really a lot of fun! Alyssa and Ryan had a blast coloring their own shirts, and could barely sit still while I carefully ironed both designs and then waited for the shirts to cool before returning them to their artists. I’d definitely recommend Wearable Art for a rainy afternoon activity, a special treat, a fun party favor or even an event to have while at a party!

You can view all of the great designs available through Wearable Art at coloryourclothes.com. Don’t forget about custom designs! You can order right from the website, so how much more convenience could you ask for?

Psst… be sure to hold onto those specialized pastel crayons for future fabric-related arts and crafts activities!
