Rumba Time Watch Review and Giveaway
CLOSED
Winner - #89 Kari V.
Generally I am not that into wearing jewelery and accessories but when I saw RumbaTime watches I just had to have one. These weightless silicone watches come in a variety of colors and styles.They are unisex and water-resistant and I absolutely adore them! The founders of RumbaTime had one mission in mind- to create fun, stylish and affordable watches that can be worn during any occasion. With over 100 styles and combinations, everything from bright solids to glitter and metallic to 2 tone and even tie dye, you are sure to find the perfect watch to fit your style. Sizes range from extra small which will fit a child 6 and under through large which will fit men with a little larger wrist. And they come in the coolest plastic capsule container!
I received a watch from the Lafayette collection in Big Apple for review and I thought it was the cutest thing.
I love the color and size small fit my thin wrists perfectly. Besides these watches being super affordable and the assortment of colors they come in, one of the other things I love about them is that they are a cinch to put on. The fact that they stretch makes them easy to slip right over your hand and fit snug to your wrist. They are extremely comfortable even for this non jewelry wearing person. I seriously love my new watch and am already looking at other colors and styles to purchase. RumbaTime watches are available for online purchase through their website http://www.rumbatime.com/ as well as several retail stores. You can find a store near you here, but wait there's more...
RumbaTime would like to give two Girly Girl readers a chance to win a RumbaTime watch of their choice with the exception of the Mercer and Broadway Collection.
To enter: Check out the entire RumbaTime collection and leave me a comment telling me which watch you would choose. You can get extra entries for following us through GFC, Subscribing via email, liking us on Facebook and following via Twitter.
Deadline: This giveaway end on February 7, 2011. I will choose the two winners using Random.org. Please leave a valid email address if it is not visible in your profile. US and Canada entries only.

Giveaway - ToodleBugz
CLOSED
Winner - #44 ColleenMarie82
I was recently contacted by a lovely lady at Crunchy Angel to review a pair of ToodleBugz arm-leg warmers! Arm and leg warmers are perfect for babies, children, teens and adults alike. For the cheerleader out on a cold football field to the toddling potty-trainer who doesn't yet know how to pull down their pants to use the potty to the crawler whose soft knees need protecting - you can find a purpose for a ToodleBugz for anyone in the family! Add them to your arms for instant long sleeves, add them under a skirt on a cool fall day or add a pair under your little ballerina's tutu for an adorable fashion statement!
My oldest daughter wears uniforms to school so we always jazz up her outfits to add a little personality. The Flights of Fancy ToodleBugz we chose were just perfect for her little navy dresses to keep her legs warm in this fall and winter months of school!
We have owned many leg warmers before but what I love most about ToodleBugz are the thickness and the variability in size. They're heavy-duty for my little kindergartner who is on her knees at circle time or running around at recess and falling on her knees all day. They're also very soft and well stitched! We've used ours many times and there's not a single hole yet.
At Crunchy Angel you can find more than just arm and leg warmers! You can find everything from cloth menstrual pads to cloth diapers. I personally love the cloth nursing pads as I used them in the early months of breastfeeding my youngest baby.
