Hey
y’all, it’s time for another edition of what I ordered from Amazon, this time
for the month of December. Surprisingly,
I didn’t order as much as I typically do in December because we ended up doing
most of our Christmas shopping in person at actual brick-and-mortar stores.
Black Cutout Cocktail Dress
Brian and I are going to a benefit ball at the end of this month, so I’ve been
in search of a dress. It’s going to be cocktail
attire this year instead of black tie, so I’ve decided to go with something
short, so I ordered several options from Amazon to try. This option has one long-sleeve with a cutout
in the torso on the same side. Y’all, I loooove
this dress. LOVE it. It is so flattering and surprisingly classy
and I absolutely love the way it looks on me.
My only hang up is that it is really short and very fitted. I originally ordered a small, and while it
fit, it was highly inappropriate to wear to this event (LOL) because it was so
short and tight. I ordered a medium in
hopes that it would be less short and tight, and while it is, I’m still on the
fence as to whether or not I should wear it.
If we weren’t going to be dancing then there would be no issue, but I’m
worried about it riding up while I’m getting my dance on. Haha. Needless
to say, I’m still mulling it over.
One Shoulder Ruffle Cocktail
Dress
Okay,
if y’all are looking for a dress that is fantastic quality, look no further
than this one. This dress is stunning
and SO well-made. I’ve owned many a
bridesmaid dress from David’s Bridal and local boutiques over the years, and I’m
here to tell you, the quality of this dress is every bit as nice as something
you’d pay $150 for at David’s Bridal. It
is gorgeous and soooo fancy, and I would have totally gone with this one if it
hadn’t felt a little too fancy for this event. It fits true-to-size… the small was perfect
on me. It doesn’t have much stretch to
it, though, so it also would have been very hard to dance in.
One Arm Cocktail Dress
This dress was also really cute and very classy aside from the fact that it was also
too short and tight. The fabric was also
way on the thin side, so ultimately, I decided to return it instead of trying
it in a larger size.
Cutout Cocktail Dress
Y’all, this dress was just awful. It was so awkward
to put on, the fabric was trash, and it looked really weird on me. Haha.
Do not recommend.
Fossil Watch
My Momma
had “simple watch” on her Christmas wish list, so I bought this one for
her. Isn’t it beautiful? It almost makes me miss wearing real
watches rather than an Apple Watch. I
just can’t give up my Apple Watch, though.
Levi’s Mens Jeans
My
Daddy had jeans on his Christmas wish list, so we bought this pair for
him. They fit perfectly and he loved this
wash. They have about 20 different
washes in this fit so there’s something for everyone.
Capri Blue Volcano Candle
This was
purchased as a Christmas gift. I’ve
always purchased mine from Anthropologie, but since this one had to be shipped
to a friend somewhere else, I opted to buy it on Amazon since they make
shipping so easy.
LipSmacker Best Flavors
ChapStick
We give
the kids new ChapStick each year for Christmas, so this was a stocking stuffer
for Olivia. She loves the flavor
assortment in this pack.
LipSmacker Avengers
ChapStick
This
was the pack that we bought for Jacob’s stocking. I typically try to find new packs for them to
try each year, and he’d never had this one before.
Stomp Racers
I’ve talked
about the goodness of Stomp Rockets on the blog for years and years… it’s been
one of our kiddos’ favorite toys forever.
Well, y’all, now they have Stomp Racers… so much fun!! You can buy a 1-pack or a 2-pack, and you
stomp them to make them roll. These were
a gift for my nephew for Christmas.
Green Sparkly Pipe Cleaners
These
were purchased for Olivia’s class Christmas party. I arranged for the kiddos to do a craft during
the party, and this was exactly what we needed.
Red, Green, and White Pony
Beads
These
were also purchased for Olivia’s class Christmas party for the same craft. They were exactly what we needed, good
quality, good price.
Xyzal
I
take this daily, year-round for my allergies and it was time for a refill. It works far better for me than Claritin or
any of the other allergy medications.
Smarty Pants Women’s Daily
Multi Vitamins
I’ve
mentioned these a million times on the blog, too, and it was time for a
refill. I love these clean vitamins that
give me all of the stuff that I need without the gunk that other multi vitamins
have.
Amazon Gift Card
This
was a purchase for Olivia’s teacher from the third-grade class. Amazon always has the cutest packaging for
gift cards when you order them from them directly, and they don’t cost more.
Amazon Gift Card
This
was another purchase for a Christmas gift, and I didn’t even have to wrap it because
it came in this darling little box with a tag and everything… at no extra cost!
And that’s it, y’all! Happy
Tuesday!
