Cheap Seiko Women’s SWL001 Braille Black Leather Strap Watch Review

I like this watch a lot. It has a regular-size quite lovely face and an easily-adjustable leather band. The only complaint I have is that it was advertised as water resistant to 60 feet. I bought it because I have been known on occasion to forget to take my watch off when I swim in the ocean. However, when I read the information that came with the watch, I learned that not only is it not the least bit water resistant, but it is suggested to even take it off while washing dishes. I paid the big price for water resistance and was disappointed at the misleading advertising. However, since the watch works well and I like it, I decided to keep it.

Cheap Women’s Merrell Jungle Moc Leather Review

I discovered Merrell Jungle Mocs and slides over 15 years ago. They fit my foot so well I can wear them without my orthotics!! They fit well, grip the road well, are well-made, last a long time, and look good in almost every situation. Thank goodness Merrell hasn’t changed the design or discontinued the line in all these years. I will continue to buy this shoe as long as Merrell makes it!

Cheap Dansko Women’s Merrie Cabrio Leather Clog Review

This shoe is very attractive. I did return it because it is sized a 7.5-8 and I found the shoe too short. My toe touched the end of the shoe. My foot actually fit the footbed exactly but when I walked I could feel my toe rubbing. I did not exchange for the larger size as I felt it would be too long. I normally wear an 8 and have extra toe room. Just be aware of the sizing if you order. It is a nice quality shoe.

Cheap Everlast Leather Weighted Jump Rope Review

This is my first jump rope. I wanted something quality and slightly weighted and this fit the bill. Since I can’t compare having not tried other ropes, I can’t comment on how it compares to other leather or synthetic ropes. But so far it seems to spin as fast as I need it to and it is definitely giving me a work out as I build conditioning for jump rope. When new, the leather is extremely stiff and bent from packaging, but if you use 100% neatsfoot oil to condition the leather, it will become very supple and a bit heavier and straighten out nicely within an hour or two. Also be sure to store it by hanging it, not wound up.

Negatives to beware of: Any good jump rope needs to be adjustable. This one is a pain in the *ss to adjust (it is not advertised as being adjustable at all), though possible. You have to remove the little spring holding the bearing in place, cut the rope and reposition the metal piece holding the leather behind the bearing. Not a fun procedure and possibly will ruin your rope and/or handles if you’re not careful. Secondly, I began to notice that my rope was rubbing on the rim of the wood handle and actually wearing away at one particular spot. I quickly put some electrical tape to protect the area from further wear (I could see the leather wearing through and eventually breaking without this). So, in short, the rope is a bit lacking in the design department and in terms of adjustability.

Cheap Dansko Women’s Sonja Patent Leather Clog Review

These clogs are so comfy, yet neat-looking. I don’t have to wear arch supports and my bunions are like nonexistant with these on my feet, when I teach little kids all day long. I’ve single-handedly sold at least 1/2 doz. pairs to colleagues, just by wearing them to school. They look as great with a suit as they do with jeans. They are perfect for airport travel, as well…as you just have to step out of your shoes for security. Wonderful purchase.

Cheap Timex T2H341 Women’s Easy Reader Black Leather Watch Review

Maybe like me your reading is getting a little harder without glasses. If so and you want a great casual watch for everyday, this is the one for you. I love it! The band is nice and long so I don’t have to use only the first hole. It has a leather upper with some other material next to skin…it is quite comfortable. The bands holding the end are very sturdy. Best of all, I can see the time without getting out my readers!! Go for it!

Cheap SHANY Super Professional Brush Set with Leather Pouch, Goat & Badger Hair, 32-Pieces Review

I was so excited when I got them. They really are beautiful brushes and super soft.

However, I did find some shedding on most of them. I dipped one of the eyeshadow brushes into my cinema secrets brush cleaner and it started shedding so badly that half the bristles disappeared…It might have been a bad brush….

I tried cleaning the blush brushes and (thank goodness) those held up just fine with just a little bit of shedding.
One of the brushes (a concealer brush I think) had an uneven tip that I had to trim myself..

Other than the rest of them were ok ^_^. I didn’t get a chance to clean the rest of the brushes but when I do I’ll let you know how it goes.

I guess 2 bad brushes out of 32 isn’t all that bad. I still love them and they really are a great value.

Cheap Diesel Men’s Black Leather Watch #DZ7066 Review

I received this as a gift from my boyfriend’s parents and ohhh, I love it! The wrist clasp mechanism is easily adjustable, setting time and date is fairly intuitive (for those who are familliar with digital watches, anyhow), and I think it’s just a very good looking watch to begin with (the main draw, after all). Sure, it’s a men’s watch but who doesn’t like leather?

I will agree that the backlighting tends to be a little on the weak side so if you expect to spend a fair amount of time in poorly lit conditions, you might not find that to be helpful. Aside from that, I have no real complaints about this watch.

It’s nothing fancy, it tells the time and day, and it looks fantastic. Great gift for those who don’t care if this watch may not be one James Bond’s first choice.
