So let’s jump right into this diaper bag! The Newlie ‘Louise’ bag! Ever since I found out I was expecting baby #2, I knew I wanted a something a little different from a diaper bag. I knew I didn’t want a bag that screamed “baby”! You know, the bag with noticeable bottle pockets and cartoon characters?! But let me throw this disclaimer out there, I own several diaper bags from many brands, and sometimes I do like the typical diaper bag look. But there are days that I just want something a bit more stylish!

With this particular bag made by Newlie, I found just that. For starters, the gold hardware detail with the leather and spill-proof nylon fabrics, is the first thing that caught my eye. Then the versatility of how you could wear it was just what I needed for a toddler and a newborn. This bag can be worn three different ways, over the shoulder, cross body, and backpack style! But let me tell you what my favorite feature is and what completely sold me! The interior zippered insulated snack pocket! It’s like a mini cooler within the bag! I cannot tell you how many snacks and juice boxes I carry around for my growing toddler. And if you’re a parent, you know how cranky these little humans can get if you aren’t well prepared with all of their favorites! Not only does it fit all of my toddler’s needs, but everything I need for my newborn. From her bottles, diapers, wipes, clothes, blankets, bibs, etc. This bag is just perfect! Get into some of the pictures below.

Many of her features are done behind the camera with video content. Initially, while she already invested in the photography equipment, most of the posts were shot in front of a plain white wall. And while that’s okay, she wanted to create a set a little more inviting for her guests during interviews. So last Monday, her and I went to our local Target and Marshall’s to pick out of a few pieces. She wanted a cozy look and I suggested a color scheme with a lot of metallic, white, and blush to brighten up the space. I thought it would be really pretty when her lighting (boxed and ring lights) bounced off the silver hues. However, since not all of her guests are women, we added a bit of masculine flair with wooden based rustic chairs. While remaining in her budget and finding quaint items to fit the office space, I was able to pull a few things together for a grand total of $220. This includes the chairs, tables, pillows, curtains, and accessories. I have included pictures with prices. I even found most items are on sale after revisiting the stores. So if you’re looking for similar, go get them now!

The finished product!

 

Now for the breakdown of cost. Every piece individually was $60 or less. We bought the chairs at Marshall’s for $50 each then I found them at Target for a set of 2 for only $38!!!! Ugh, don’t you hate when that happens?! But Target’s furniture is currently 30% off, so run and look at their options first!

I’ll have a few more ThrifTEA projects coming up in a few weeks because my family is moving to a new home in 10 days. So if you’re interested, stay tuned!

P.S. go visit her blog now, www.glowgalaxyinc.com, you might want to become a martian!

I’ve been selected by Influenster and L’Oreal to test out a new product for 14 days! The Revitalift Triple Power Intensive Anti-Aging Day Cream was created to bring a youthful look back! Now that I’m in my thirties with 2 kids, coupled with many sleepless nights, this came right on time. I’m clearly not getting any younger so I was looking for something to help give me a brighter look and to lock in lots of moisture! I will be applying the moisturizer in the morning and night, taking a selfie on day 1, after week 1, and the end of week 2! So follow me on my #RevitaliftChallenge for the next 14 days as I document my skin’s changes! Stay tuned!

Be You Tea Full http://teawithtoi.com/beyouteafull/ http://teawithtoi.com/beyouteafull/#comments Fri, 21 Apr 2017 16:53:50 +0000 http://teawithtoi.com//?p=1 Read More Be You Tea Full]]>

Welcome Beauties! I wanted to create a platform where ladies can feel comfortable talking about topics that embraces womanhood. The title name says just that! Be You! Meaning… be you, do you, for you! And Tea Full… be so full of your talents and gifts and don’t be afraid to share them with the world!

Often times women feel overwhelmed with life’s many challenges, but when we take time for ourselves, even it’s only an hour each day, we feel much better. This means time away from the husband and kids. For me, I need to time to think, like peace and quiet, with my own thoughts to kind of sort through what I have going on that week. Whether it’s a drive,  strolling around Target, getting my hair or nails done, gym time, or a cup of coffee (Im still finding my favorite tea flavor). What do you do to rejuvenate?

No matter what it is, be your own kind of Be You Tea Full! Now raise your cup, and take a sip! ☕️ -Toi
