DOWAN 10 Ounce Porcelain Bowl Review

7/8/2017

0 Comments

I was so excited to get this product to review! My parents had similar bowls when I was growing up and I ALWAYS used them. I think their bowls were technically "rice bowls" but they were the perfect size for a little snack or side dish. This one seems slightly more fragile than the ones my parents had, but it says it is: microwave, oven, dishwasher and freezer safe, which is awesome! I just got one bowl to review, but the company has pretty good pricing for the bundles (like the four pack). I may have to buy some more since I love this kind of bowl so much. I love that, because of it's size, it makes portioning very easy! I use this bowl if I need to microwave something (like a stick of butter), and the deep bowl keeps the melted butter contained so I can easily pour it into whatever I am making. I also like using this for ice-cream or sweets because it is small enough that I can be satisfied by my serving without getting a stomachache from eating too much. I would definitely recommend getting bowls like this and this brand makes well-made bowls, so I would check them out!

Review: 4 Piece Fruit and Veggie Peeler Set

I received this set as a gift, but I wanted to review it because I thought it was so nifty! I found it on Amazon and it currently is listed as $10.99, which I thought  was a super good deal because usually just one of these items costs around $5-8. I should note technically only 3 of the items are for peeling, the other item is a cleaning brush (which is useful too). Since I'm awful with proper names of things (I'd be calling them, all "the big peeler thingy"), I'll list the product description of the contents: "Y" shaped serrated peeler, dual swivel blade julienne peeler, folding kitchen knife, and a clean brush. It comes in two plastic bags, which is nice because you can store them without risk of cutting yourself, because they are SHARP! They do what they are supposed to, they cut and peel fruits and veggies, so I'm pleased. The peelers with the bigger blades have a nice handle making it easy to grip. The product listing says its dishwasher safe too, which is super nice, though I prefer to just wash them by hand because it's easy to do. Pleased by this set overall, does what it's supposed to while still being affordable. I don't peel items very frequently, so this suits my needs!

Review: Jooniyaa Bikini Swimsuit

7/4/2017

To begin, this pattern is so super cute! I love that I could also mix and match pieces from this with other suits I have!
For your reference: I'm 5'2'', 105 pounds (usually size XS or S...petite), 32 DD chest. 

The bottoms:
The bottoms on this were TIGHT. I don't have prominent hips or a big butt (I'm very petite), but it was really hard to get this on (usually I have extra room in size small suits because of this). It doesn't have that much stretch at the top of the bottoms (which is how it hugs your stomach) but it is a big of a challenge getting them on. If you have wider hips, thighs, or a bigger back end, you may wanna order a size up. 

The top: 
Very cute. My chest didn't fit into the little pockets they had (but I have bigger bust), however with the extra fabric below I'm completely covered. The back snap was a bit unusual and took a while to figure out. It helps to look at the parts that face out (the smoother parts) to figure out how to fasten it. You can't make the band any tighter, but it seemed to fit true to size small. I LOVED that the straps are adjustable. Being petite, I have very narrow shoulders and usually straps fall off if they aren't adjustable all the way, but this can be adjusted the entire length of the strap! 

Overall:
Overall, I'm pleased. Just may want to order a size up for the bottoms or just understand that it'll be a little battle every time you put the bottoms on. 

Interested in looking at a suit for yourself? This company has other cute styles and patterns!
