Purex Crystals and Jockey Sports Bra Giveaway

It's January again and one of the first things that comes to mind when is new years resolutions. Being women, I think pretty much everyone of us has added "get fit" or "lose weight" to our resolution list at one time or another. I don't even think of making one about joining a gym but I do think I can manage to walk in my neighborhood once a day. Here in Florida, heat and moisture are two of our big concerns. That's why I'm happy to share these two products with you, Purex Crystals and Jockey. After reading more you'll understand why these two are connected.

We all know that you don't want to use the normal liquid fabric softener on towels because it inhibits their ability to absorb moisture. How do you dry off if you can't absorb moisture, right? That's why Purex Crystals are so special. For years I've missed being able to have that super soft feel and the wonderful scent that comes from fabric softener on my towels. Not anymore.

Welcome back delicious smelling towels Purex Crystals is an innovative freshening product that doesn't use oil for softening, so it can be used on all types of laundry. Purex Crystals is the more natural way to freshen your clothes for weeks not days.

Purex Crystals are 92% natural crystals that go in at the start of the was so they spend more time with your laundry infusing them with long lasting freshness. And no more softener balls and messy liquids that can sometime stain you laundry.

Purex Crystals do not contain oil, so it can safely be used on all laundry including:
  • Athletic wear
  • Towels
  • Children's sleepwear
  • & everything else!

That brings me to my letting know about the 2012 Jockey Tech Terry Performance Sports Bra. Just the thing to help me with my Get Fit new years resolution.

Just seeing the Jockey active wear sitting there is incentive to get me going. Just check out these features:

  • Moisture-wicking sports bra helps keep you cool & dry
  • Convenient key pocket so you can take your workouts anywhere!
  •  Reflective logo at the back
  •  Breathable mesh panels
  •  Soft bottom band for comfortable support

With Purex Crystals it's safe to use on performance sportswear. You couldn't do that with traditional fabric softener because the oil content would prevent the wicking process. Purex Crystals are also safe use on flame retardant fabric like children's pajamas.

Having your choice of three difference scents is an added plus. The hard part is deciding which one to get.

  • Fresh Spring Waters
  • Lavender Blossom
  • Tropical Splash

Purex Crystals are priced just right for my budget at $3.99 (pricing will vary by location and store).

I Don't Want To Be Famous I Just Want Out of My Pajamas

Why is it so difficult for a woman over 40, well okay if you're going to be picky, over 50 to find an article on fashion that's suitable?  

To be honest I'm getting stuck in a rut.  I don't go as much as I used to and I'm finding myself a lot more comfortable in my pajamas than clothes.  How do you still look good at home?  Do you have a fashion style at home?  Would you be embarrassed to have a neighbor pop over?  

For the past, I don't know how many years, we have remodeled the house, landscaped the yard and anything nice or at least decent I didn't want to wear around here and ruin.  Now I've gained weight and need new clothes.  How can I dress comfortable with out going to the old ladies department or the Blair catalog (no offense if you shop there).  All I want to wear is elastic waist bands, at least at home.  I also want it loose and comfy but am tired of not looking put together anymore.  So if you have tips or want to share, I sure would like to hear how you deal with it.

I did think this was a cute and cool (as in weather wise) dress.  I'm not sure where I found this one.
I swear it seems like it's been as close to impossible to find what I want when I go on the search engines.  I always end up being there forever.  My actual request was just to find, wear around the house and errand clothing.  Yeah, these shorts are a little short for me.  And even that's getting difficult because I'm petite and look really short in long shorts but at 50 plus you don't want to be out in really short ones.

   I believe I got the next two on Newport News or maybe Talbots but I'm not sure.
I love this pop of color with the khaki.  The next pair of shorts look like just the right length. But to be honest I could only wear that coral top if I was going to be in a/c all day.  Way to hot here to wear much more than tanks and tees here in Florida.  Which leads back to the question, how do you look pulled together when you have to keep clothing to a minimum.
This last outfit is one I put together myself at the Target website.  I just found that.  It's so cool!  It lets you put your own outfits together.  You pick the top and bottom (or dress), shoes and accessories. And then you save it to their page and you can share it with others by putting it on facebook or your blog.  You can even view what everyone else puts together. What a great way to shop! 

 

 Ya'll have a beautiful, cheery day.
Hugs...Tracy :)
