Preparing For Homecoming Part 2

Outfit Update

I'm less than 3 weeks out, and still have no clue what to wear. I can't tell what the weather is going to be like! I bought an adorable 3/4 length cream sweater to go with that scarf. Then a new pair of dark wash jeans. I was going to pair that with boots. But if the weather is like it's been lately, 85 is way too hot for a sweater.
I had bought a nice blue dress for an upcoming award ceremony. So I might go with that and a pair of nude heels.  
I swear, this is the toughest decision of my life.


Welcome Home Banner

So I had that trouble with the banner showing up with no grommets. I called, and they said they'd send me a new one if I paid for shipping ($20) Um, no. Not happening. So I got them to send me a new one free of charge. It arrived and looks fantastic!

Welcome Home Basket

I got this idea off Pinterest. Provide my husband with all new hygiene items so he doesn't have to travel home with all those big bottles. Now, ideally I would put this stuff in a basket, but I was angry at the PX. They are in the process of renovating. I had to go to every corner of the store just to find these items. Shampoo was in one corner. Deodorant in another. Shaving cream in another. Toothpaste in another. The point is...I could not for the life of me find a basket!!! I think it looks kinda nice set up like this though.


Stay tuned for my homecoming poster!! I picked up all the goodies for it today.

September Spouse Box Review

September's Spouse Box was Spa themed and absolutely amazing!


LadyBurg Bath Bomb. I can not wait to try this baby out! I just picked up a nice bottle of wine, and am all set for a relaxing evening. Lord knows I'll need it. These next few weeks are going to be so stressful preparing for homecoming. 
Sephora Fiber Mask. This will be perfect for the days leading up to homecoming! 

 Coconut Pineapple Water flavoring. This stuff is soooo good! It can be purchased at HEB, Publix, Kroger.

 This candle smell soooo good (when not lit). Rosemary Mint. Yum! However, I was incredibly disappointed once I lit it. It has ZERO scent throw. Did you know that's a thing? Neither did I until I was complaining to my best friend that I practically burned my nose before I could smell it. Her response? I HATE when candles have no scent throw!! Girl, me too. Me too.

 Sock Panda Socks. Apparently Sock Panda is a monthly subscription box that sends you fun socks monthly. Not something I'd ever sign up for, but they're cute!

 Ready to Wear Mascara. I guess, you can never have enough mascara!

 All the goodies together!

Overall, I'm incredibly happy with this months box!! Yes, the candle was disappointing, but I blame the maker, not Spouse Box.
