Action Baby Carrier Video Review and Giveaway!

Since becoming pregnant I have been looking for a way to continue to wear Charlotte. I can't use the wrap I have because its a stretchy wrap. Stretchy wraps are not recommended for a back carry. Buying a new wrap that is compatible is very pricey!
When Action Baby Carriers asked if I would review their carrier I was very excited! Not only can it be used for front carries but also on the back!

I made a video showing how to put it on for the back carry as well as how to wear it on the front. I used Amber's help for that part. Please feel free to subscribe to my youtube channel while you are there:

No nonsense tights and leggings is style made easy!

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of No nonsense for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

 

The weather around here is getting chilly! But that won't stop me from being stylishly pregnant this winter. I received a pair of No nonsense tights and a pair of No nonsense leggings to review. That means I can still wear some of my fall favorites with a little extra flare. Normally I love wearing my flowy light fabrics especially in the Arizona heat. But when the temps dip lower there is a need for more coverage. 

The past few nights have been down to the freezing point, New Year's Eve was no exception. At midnight in my neighborhood it was 35 degrees! Simply adding my leggings to my wrap dress not only kept the chill off but made my whole outfit have the attitude to help celebrate the evening in style!

I also received a pair of No nonsense tights. I have to be honest and say that I have not worn tights since high school, which was more than a decade ago... So I was a little apprehensive. Being pregnant I did have to wear the waistband below my belly. I decided to pair them with a longer skirt and my favorite maternity top!

I really love the No nonsense tights and leggings I received! They feel awesome and are very comfortable. I love that they can be paired with just about any outfit to change up the style in a flash. As you can see both pairs I received were black which goes with anything! But I do need to get some of those awesome colors too!
